White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt says a Reuters report published Thursday that the Trump administration is planning to revoke temporary legal status for some 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the conflict with Russia is "fake news."

"This is more fake news from Reuters based on anonymous sources who have no idea what they are talking about," she said in a post on X.

"The truth: no decision has been made at this time."


A a senior Trump official and three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters that the Trump administration would put the Ukrainians on a fast-track to deportation as soon as April.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I do not see Trump deporting Ukrainians that fled to the USA to avoid this war.  Same is true for Russians that did the same thing.  Here in the Atlanta metro, I know a number of folks from both countries that fled to avoid the war.  Most are highly educated, and working hard here in the USA to support themselves.

I see all of them eventually becoming citizens, for bottomline, they fled tyranny.  And Putin's war on Ukraine is exactly that, tyranny.  If Trump can force Putin and Zelennsky to negotiate a peace, he is doing the world a good thing.
