APPEALS COURT LETS DHS END TPS: 60,000 FROM NEPAL, HONDURAS, NICARAGUA NOW DEPORTATION-ELIGIBLE

The Ninth Circuit granted an emergency stay allowing the Trump administration to proceed with ending Temporary Protected Status for roughly 60,000 people from Nepal, Honduras, and Nicaragua, making them eligible for removal as protections lapse. Advocates argue DHS ended TPS without an objective review of country conditions; DHS says TPS was never intended as a de facto asylum system. The ruling fits a broader acceleration of TPS rollbacks affecting other nationalities, with further hearings set for November.
