Trump halts US green card lottery over security fears

The Trump administration has suspended the United States Diversity Immigrant Visa Programme, widely known as the green card lottery, citing security concerns after recent deadly shootings. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that, on President Donald Trump’s directive, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services has been ordered to pause the programme.​ The Diversity Visa scheme offers up to about 50,000 permanent resident visas each year to people from countries with historically low levels of immigration to the US, many of them in Africa. Beneficiaries are selected through an electronic lottery and can later apply for full green cards and, eventually, citizenship.​ Officials linked the suspension to an ongoing investigation into shootings at Brown University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where the suspected gunman is reported to have entered the US through the lottery programme and later obtained permanent […]

Trump Brands US Cities ‘War Zones,’ Deploys Troops

The Trump administration has described major US cities as "war zones" to justify deploying National Guard troops against the will of local Democratic leaders. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Chicago a "war zone" on Sunday, defending President Trump's decision to send 300 soldiers there. This move was opposed by Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, who accused the administration of wanting to "create the war zone" to justify more military presence. The strategy faced a legal setback when a federal judge blocked a similar deployment to Portland, Oregon. The judge stated the president's determination was "untethered to the facts" and emphasized that the US is "a nation of Constitutional law, not martial law." The deployments are part of a broader anti-crime and immigration crackdown focused on Democrat-run cities, which has sparked protests and legal challenges. A recent poll found that 58% […]

One dead, two injured in Dallas ICE facility shooting

A deadly shooting occurred Wednesday at a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility in Dallas, Texas, leaving one person dead and two others injured, according to officials. The suspected gunman, positioned on the roof of a nearby building, opened fire on the facility before dying from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Dallas police confirmed in a post on X (formerly Twitter). Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem condemned the attack, saying:“While we don’t know the motive yet, we know that our ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence. It must stop.” Local broadcaster Fox4 reported that the victims were detainees in ICE custody. No ICE officers were injured. ICE deputy director Madison Sheahan told Fox News:“We’ve seen a lot of violence at ICE facilities, and this is not the first time this year. These attacks must stop.” Vice President JD […]

Trump Ends Protection for 250,000 Venezuelan Migrants

The Trump administration has announced it will terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for more than 256,000 Venezuelan migrants, opening the way for large-scale deportations. TPS was first granted under President Joe Biden in 2021 and expanded in 2023, allowing eligible Venezuelans to obtain work permits and protection from removal. A Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson said the decision was based on “public safety, national security, migration factors, immigration policy, economic considerations, and foreign policy.” The spokesperson added that TPS had created “a magnet effect” for irregular migration and undermined the Trump administration’s border security efforts. The protections will formally expire on September 10, but DHS clarified that the termination will take effect 60 days after its notice is published in the Federal Register. Pending applications — including 3,728 new requests and more than 102,000 renewals — will also be […]
