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.

    I have zero debt. I pay for shit in cash or don’t buy things I cannot afford. 6 years ago I built a tiny home off grid on a plot of land outside of the city. I don’t have mainstream socials: I quit them in 2018. Need I go on?

    You’re suggesting average people just “pay off their debts” as if that’s a viable path for someone living paycheck to paycheck. We’re largely struggling here.

    The top 0.1% have 50% of the wealth in this country. The top 1% have 90%. Work that out, guy.

    None of what you suggested will stop Trump. Nothing you suggested will change his actions. He’s entrenching himself as dictator.

      Good for you to be mostly independent, help people around you reach some of these objectives themselves. Build a network of likeminded people.

      You can debate between American when and how to actually fight for your country and your freedom. As for me in Canada this isn’t a preoccupation for me because i won’t be involved in your internal struggle. As a last idea may I suggest an old French sharp device?
