Hundreds of thousands of immigrants who were given special permission to come to the US will be told that they must leave the country immediately.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said in a statement Thursday that Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans who were previously temporarily shielded from deportation will be emailed notices telling them to go.

The DHS said that more than half a million people from the four countries were allowed to remain in the US for two years under orders issued by Joe Biden.

    Crazy that they’re communicating something this important via email. Not that it’s the only crazy thing about this scenario.

      It would be trivial to spoof it if some jerk wanted to cause fear in brown people they don’t like. Just like people have already used masks and posed as ICE to rob.
