The US Supreme Court hands the Trump Administration a big win by allowing it to end Temporary Protected status for 350,000 Venezuelans in the US.

It's a crucial part of more than a dozen immigrant communities across the country, impacting more than 800,000 people with TPS and their families.

The thing is, Venezuelan Americans voted for Trump in large numbers, campaigned for him, and supported his policies. So why end this program that's so popular with them?

Grant talks about why the Administration wants to do this, what it has to do with other Supreme Court cases, and what it means for us citizens and non-citizens, no matter your status.
