Episode Details

Over 160 Haitians were deported to Haiti this week — the first mass return since TPS ended under Trump — landing in Cap-Haitien as Port-au-Prince’s airport remains off-limits due to gang violence. Many covered their faces, fearing attacks from gangs controlling the capital. Among them: TPS recipients and even those with U.S. prison records. While Haitian officials vow to assist returnees — some of whom weren’t born there but are of Haitian descent — the journey home is fraught with danger, as gangs routinely fire on vehicles. The Supreme Court’s June ruling cleared the way for deportations after a federal judge lifted a stay, sparking alarm from activists who warn Haiti can’t safely absorb such a surge amid deep poverty and chaos.
