WASHINGTON, March 6 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is planning to revoke temporary legal status for some 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the conflict with Russia, a senior Trump official and three sources familiar with the matter said, potentially putting them on a fast-track to deportation.

The move, expected as soon as April, would be a stunning reversal of the welcome Ukrainians received under President Joe Biden’s administration.

The planned rollback of protections for Ukrainians was underway before Trump publicly feuded with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy last week. It is part of a broader Trump administration effort to strip legal status from more than 1.8 million migrants allowed to enter the U.S. under temporary humanitarian parole programs launched under the Biden administration, the sources said.

    Yeah I know they got you good and screwed, I feel for you. I really do. Not advocating anything of course but the French had this strange contraption called a g-something. Jokes aside it’s not only the White House and trump. He seems to have more or less domesticated your entire political landscape, bar a few.

    *I’ve talked to some American friends in a shituation not unsimilar to yours, some of them all they can do is call or email their rep or congressman. Politicians are spineless and can rarely tell right from wrong themselves, what they need to know is they have the people behind them if they try to challenge a king. For that to happen the people need to get loud. Others are able to stir more shit or try to form/join unions or go out on the streets and tell them what’s up.

    Not everyone can do the same thing but most have some form of way getting loud.

    Put dog poop in their mailboxes. No dog? Get innovative.
