Florida Republican says deporting Haitians with TPS would be ‘huge mistake’

Carlos Giménez, a Republican congressman from Florida, broke with the Trump administration on Sunday, calling on the White House to reconsider its push to eliminate temporary protected status (TPS) for Haitian migrants. 

Returning some 350,000 Haitians to their chaotic, dangerous homeland following the US supreme court’s ruling that the Trump administration can cut off temporary legal protections, would be a grave error, Giménez said...

Supreme Court allows Trump to end temporary protections for Haitians, Syrians - POLITICO

Immigrant rights advocates said that although the law requires the Homeland Security Department to consult with the State Department on the conditions in impacted countries before making decisions on TPS, then-Secretary Kristi Noem engaged in comically cursory consultations with State.

Haitian immigrants flee Springfield, Ohio, in droves after Trump election win

For companies in Springfield and in nearby communities that depend on Haitian labor, Trump's comments could prove damaging. The Haitians who filled thousands of jobs at area packaging and auto plants have helped rejuvenate once-blighted neighborhoods and contributed to the local economy in myriad ways.

The Brazen, Absurd, and Dangerous Hypocrisy of JD Vance – Mother Jones

Ponder this: the Republican nominee for vice president commended a book that praised violent dictators and held them up as role models for the American right. By the way, this book was also extolled by Donald Trump Jr. ("teaches us how…to save the West"), Michael Flynn ("exposes their battle plans and offers a fifth-generation warfare system to fight back and win"), and Tucker Carlson ("Jack Posobiec sees the big picture and isn't afraid to describe it.") 

Now Vance, who works for Trump, has the audacity to lecture others on the excesses of political rhetoric? He has demonized and demeaned his foes. He has called for purges. He has acclaimed a book that literally dehumanizes liberals and celebrates fascists who deployed horrific political violence. And there's this: Not long ago, he told fellow conservatives, "The thing we have to take away from the last 10 years is that we really need be really ruthless when it comes to the exercise of power."…
