Trump can end deportation protections for Cuban and Haitian nationals, Supreme Court says
The Supreme Court on Friday allowed President Donald Trump's administration to suspend a Biden-era parole program that allowed a half million immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to temporarily live and work in the United States. It was the second time this month that the high court sided with Trump's efforts to revoke temporary legal status for immigrants. The Supreme Court previously cleared the way for the administration to revoke another temporary program that provided work permits to hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans. The court's brief order was not signed. Two liberal justices – Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson – dissented from the decision. Though the emergency decision from the Supreme Court is not final – the underlying legal case will continue in lower courts – the order will allow the administration to expedite deportations for those who had previously benefited from the program. This story is breaking and will be updated.

US Steel-Nippon deal raises emissions concerns
An emerging White House-backed deal to allow a Japanese firm to purchase U.S. Steel could have implications for the industry's greenhouse gas emissions. President Donald Trump plans to hold a rally Friday in Pittsburgh to celebrate the deal, which he has described as a 'planned partnership' with Nippon Steel that will be 'controlled by the United States.' But clean energy advocates are concerned that Nippon's acquisition of Pittsburgh-based U.S. Steel, one of the biggest American steel producers, could delay the industry's transition away from coal-based blast furnaces. Advertisement 'This deal poses real threats to steel decarbonization in the U.S.,' Astrid Grigsby-Schulte, project manager of the Global Iron and Steel Tracker at the firm Global Energy Monitor, said in an email. 'On a global scale, Nippon has a lot of work to do to align with net zero goals and this extends to their acquisition of U.S. steel.'
