Colombia’s De la Espriella Launches Immediate Migrant Deportation Drive in Barranquilla

Colombian President Abelardo de la Espriella has ordered immediate joint police and migration operations to detain and deport individuals in irregular status or involved in crime, starting in Barranquilla. The move, announced just two weeks into his term, echoes US-style 'Colombians first' rhetoric and targets the 848,000 Venezuelans currently in irregular status. Critics warn the policy lacks legal basis and sufficient agency staff, while the administration frames it as a necessary security measure amidst ongoing post-earthquake recovery.

Appeals Court Blocks Contempt Case Over Trump Deportation Flights

A U.S. appeals court blocked District Judge James Boasberg from pursuing criminal-contempt proceedings against the Trump administration over two March 2025 deportation flights of Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador, ruling the judge’s order was not explicit and would be intrusive into high-level deliberations; the 2-1 decision, authored by Judge Neomi Rao and joined by Judge Justin Walker, was along party lines, highlighting the ongoing clash over the use of the Alien Enemies Act in deportations and the March 2025 operation involving 137 Venezuelans.

Circuit halted a district court’s criminal-contempt probe into whether Trump-era officials violated an order to turn around two deportation flights carrying Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador, ruling the inquiry would intrude on executive branch autonomy and raise separation-of-powers concerns; Judge Neomi Rao wrote the majority, with Judge J. Michelle Childs dissenting.

Trump Admin Ends Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelan Migrants

The Trump administration plans to end the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for nearly 270,000 Venezuelan migrants, urging them to self-deport, as part of a broader effort to revoke humanitarian protections for migrants from crisis-hit countries. The move, if not blocked by courts, will lapse their legal status within 60 days, potentially leading to deportations, with officials promoting voluntary returns through a government app and offering bonuses. This action continues a pattern of terminating TPS for various countries, citing concerns over illegal immigration and border security.
