An appellate court ruled the Trump administration can move forward with ending temporary deportation protections for thousands of Afghan and Cameroonian nationals.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is allowed to end the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for roughly 10,000 Afghans and Cameroonians while a court challenge against the move continues to play out in court, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Monday. The court determined that while CASA — an immigration advocacy group suing DHS — has a plausible case, there is not enough evidence to block the TPS phaseout while the court challenge continues.

“We agree with the district court that CASA, Inc. has stated a plausible claim for relief with regard to the alleged ‘preordained’ decision to terminate temporary protected status (TPS) for Afghanistan and Cameroon, and that the balance of the equities and the public interest weigh in favor of CASA, Inc,” the court stated, according to court documents.

“At this procedural posture, however, there is insufficient evidence to warrant the extraordinary remedy of a postponement of agency action pending appeal,” the ruling continued.

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced a major change in sanctuary status for Louisville Tuesday morning as the administration continues its pressure campaign against Democrat mayors and governors for harboring violent criminal illegal aliens.

“In a major victory for the Department of Justice, the city of Louisville is dropping its sanctuary city policies as a result of a strong written warning from my office,” Bondi announced. “This should set an example to other cities. Instead of forcing us to sue you — which we will, without hesitation — follow the law, get rid of sanctuary policies, and work with us to fix the illegal immigration crisis.”

The news comes just one day after Border Czar Tom Homan said the Trump administration is going to “flood the zone” to find criminals in sanctuary jurisdictions across the country.

In the aftermath of the Wall Street Journal publishing what President Donald Trump has called a “fake” birthday card from him to Jeffrey Epstein, a reporter has been booted from a press pool covering Trump’s upcoming trip to Scotland.

The outlet alleged it found a 2003 letter from Trump to Epstein, which Trump denies. He has called the story “false, malicious, and defamatory.”

Tarini Parti, a White House reporter for the Wall Street Journal, was supposed to be part of the media pool covering Trump’s upcoming trip to his golf courses in Scotland.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Parti will not be allowed on the trip, according to Politico.

“As the appeals court confirmed, the Wall Street Journal or any other news outlet are not guaranteed special access to cover President Trump in the Oval Office, aboard Air Force One, and in his private workspaces,” Leavitt said in a statement.

“Due to the Wall Street Journal’s fake and defamatory conduct, they will not be one of the thirteen outlets on board. Every news organization in the entire world wishes to cover President Trump, and the White House has taken significant steps to include as many voices as possible.”

President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice (DOJ) is firing dozens of career prosecutors, sparking alarm among his critics.

Critics have accused Trump of departing from established norms with his sweeping shakeup of the DOJ.

The firings of Democrat-loyal DOJ officials have played a central role in Trump’s efforts to end the weaponization of the justice system.

Trump’s rise as a politician led Democrats to embrace the justice system as a defense of “our democracy.”

Democrats welcomed politically motivated criminal investigations into Trump in an effort to derail his return to the White House.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has fired several prosecutors who were involved in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s politically explosive investigations of Trump in 2024.

Smith’s efforts divided the nation.
