Alito rips race-based claim in high-stakes migrant protections case at Supreme Court

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito challenged claims that ending deportation protections for Haitian migrants was racially motivated, questioning how the argument applies when similar policies affect migrants from multiple countries. The case centers on whether courts can review the Trump administration's decision to terminate temporary protected status (TPS) for Haitian and Syrian migrants, which could lead to their deportation.
