The Supreme Court granted an emergency application filed by the Trump administration, which argued that it has sole authority over immigration disputes such as the Temporary Protected Status of Venezuelans living in the United States. The Supreme Court ruling is a major victory for the Trump administration.

Judge James Ho of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit harshly criticized the Supreme Court for showing "disrespect" after it blocked the Trump administration's attempts to deport Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act.

Venezuelans have long considered the Miami suburb of Doral their refuge. Trump’s immigration crackdown is calling that into question.
