After a district court blocked the Department of Homeland Security from abruptly ending the Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan Parole Program, President Donald Trump's administration appealed the decision. However, a panel of three judges denied the appeal on Monday.

Trump advisor Stephen Miller suggested Friday the Trump administration is considering suspending the writ of habeas corpus to more easily detain immigrants—meaning denying them the right to protest their detention—the latest suggestion by Trump officials that they want to get rid of traditional legal processes in order to carry out their hardline immigration agenda.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller smiled with glee as he revealed that the Trump administration is “actively looking” into suspending habeas corpus for detained migrants. Miller spoke with reporters outside the White House on Friday and made the comment as he answered questions about President Donald Trump‘s agenda to further crack down on illegal immigration.
