'Send Them to Gitmo': Trump Readies INFAMOUS Prison For 9,000 Detainees, Including Ukrainians

Trump reportedly plans to send undocumented migrants—including Ukrainian war refugees—to Guantanamo Bay, a military facility infamous for holding terror suspects. The Biden-era program that offered sanctuary to Ukrainians fleeing war may be rolled back, with deportation or detention now on the table. Medical screenings for 9,000 detainees are underway ahead of transfers to Cuba. The move is part of Trump's broader immigration crackdown—targeting 3,000 arrests a day—and could revoke protections for 240,000 Ukrainians. The use of Guantanamo has sparked outrage due to its controversial history and lack of foreign government notification. #Trump #Guantanamo #ImmigrationPolicy #UkrainianRefugees #MigrantCrisis #Deportation #BidenProgram #RefugeeRights #GuantanamoBay #HumanRights #ImmigrationNews #UndocumentedMigrants #USPolitics #ControversialPolicy #CubaDetention #BreakingNews #ICERaids #Trump2024 #UkraineWar #RefugeeCrisis #TrumpPlan #AsylumSeekers #GuantanamoReturn #DetentionCenter #MigrantRights #TortureHistory #GlobalReactions #TrumpVsImmigrants #ImmigrationCrackdown #RefugeesUnderThreat #USBorderPolic Also Read To Secure Rare Earth Minerals...: US Prez Donald Trump Announces 55% Tariff Hike On Chinese Goods :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/to-secure-rare-earth-minerals-us-prez-donald-trump-announces-55-tariff-hike-on-chinese-goods-4178549.html?ref=DMDesc Went Too Far: Elon Musk Expresses 'Regrets' Over Posts On US President Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/went-too-far-elon-musk-expresses-regrets-over-posts-on-us-president-donald-trump-4178235.html?ref=DMDesc US Deploys 700 Marines To Los Angeles As Immigration Protests Intensify Against Trump's Diktat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-deploys-700-marines-to-los-angeles-as-immigration-protests-intensify-against-trumps-diktat-4176947.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~

‘Trump BETRAYED Us, Diverted 20,000 Missiles’ | Zelensky UNLEASHES on Trump

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a TV interview that the Trump administration diverted 20,000 anti-drone missiles, originally approved under Biden, away from Ukraine to the Middle East. Zelensky said Ukraine relied on these precision-guided weapons to counter Shaheed drone strikes, including a record 472 drones on June 1. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth cited urgency but skipped a major Ukraine meeting. Trump later resumed aid after Kyiv agreed to a ceasefire, sparking backlash over his stance to “let the war continue.” #Zelensky #Trump #UkraineAid #DroneWar #MiddleEast #MilitaryAid #ShaheedDrones #TrumpReturns #AntiDroneMissiles #UkraineCrisis #PeteHegseth #USUkraine #WarPolitics #CeasefireDeal #BreakingNews #UkraineWar #DefenseControversy #BidenVsTrump #WeaponRedirection #UkraineDefense #MilitaryShift #Geopolitics #TrumpPolicy #RussiaUkraineWar #USForeignPolicy #DronesInWarfare #ZelenskyReveals #MissileDiversion #AIDFreeze #TrumpControversy Also Read Protests Intensify In Los Angeles After Trump Deploys Hundreds Of National Guard Troops :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/protests-intensify-in-los-angeles-after-trump-deploys-hundreds-of-national-guard-troops-4175915.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.122~HT.408~

‘This Is An Attack On Justice…’ UN BLASTS US Sanctions On ICC Judges Amid Netanyahu’s Probe

The UN’s top human rights official, Volker Türk, has strongly condemned U.S. sanctions on four ICC judges as “deeply corrosive” to international justice. These judges, who ruled on cases involving alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and arrest warrants against Israeli leaders, now face sanctions from the Biden administration. Türk warned that targeting international judges for executing their duties endangers the rule of law. The EU has backed the ICC, vowing to counter these sanctions and defend the court’s independence from political pressure. #ICC #USSanctions #UN #VolkerTürk #InternationalJustice #Netanyahu #AfghanistanWarCrimes #RuleOfLaw #HumanRights #EU #GlobalJustice #ICCJUDGES #GazaInvestigation #SanctionsBacklash #TrumpSanctions #USvsICC #InternationalLaw #WarCrimesAccountability #JusticeSystem #LegalIndependence Also Read Women's Cricket World Cup Schedule: ICC Announces Match Dates, Venues; Pakistan Matches In Colombo :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/womens-cricket-world-cup-schedule-icc-announces-match-dates-venues-pakistan-matches-in-colombo-4170415.html?ref=DMDesc Shreyas Iyer Wins ICC Award For His Valuable Contribution In Champions Trophy 2025 :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/shreyas-iyer-wins-icc-award-for-his-valuable-contribution-in-champions-trophy-2025-4124361.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Cricketers Face Another Setback as All Fifty Players Go Unsold in the Hundred Draft :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/pakistan-cricketers-face-another-setback-as-all-fifty-players-go-unsold-in-the-hundred-draft-4094855.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.336~

Biden BREAKS Silence Over Trump’s Autopen Probe | SLAMS Trump Calling It ‘Ridiculous’ Controversy

Joe Biden has broken his silence following Donald Trump's renewed criticism over his use of an autopen to sign executive orders. During a recent Oval Office ceremony, Trump mocked Biden, questioning the legality of using the signature machine. Now, House Republicans are planning a formal investigation. In a sharp rebuttal, Biden dismissed the allegations, stating, “I made the decisions about pardons, executive orders, legislation. Any suggestion that I didn’t is ridiculous and false.” The controversy revives questions about presidential protocol and Trump’s persistent attacks on his predecessor. #Biden #Trump #Autopen #ExecutiveOrders #BidenResponse #GOPProbe #OvalOffice #SignatureScandal #WhiteHouse #PoliticalDrama #Presidency #Congress #Republicans #Democrats #BidenVsTrump #AutopenControversy #BidenPressStatement #ExecutiveBranch #BidenNews #BreakingPolitics Also Read PM Modi Sends Best Wishes To Joe Biden After Aggressive Prostate Cancer Diagnosis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pm-modi-sends-best-wishes-to-joe-biden-after-aggressive-prostate-cancer-diagnosis-4157601.html?ref=DMDesc Former US President Joe Biden Diagnosed With 'Aggressive' Prostate Cancer :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/former-us-president-joe-biden-diagnosed-with-aggressive-prostate-cancer-4157229.html?ref=DMDesc US Prez Trump Says He's Revoking Biden's Security Clearance, Ending Intelligence Briefings In Payback Move :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-prez-trump-says-hes-revoking-bidens-security-clearance-ending-intelligence-briefings-in-paybac-4065405.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.336~

During a fiery White House press briefing, Fox News correspondent Alexandria Hoff pressed Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt with a provocative question: “Does the president see himself as a king?” Hoff was referencing the upcoming “No Kings Day” protest planned for Trump’s birthday military parade, aimed at criticizing ICE raids and authoritarian optics. Leavitt, unfazed, dismissed the premise as “absurd” and reaffirmed Trump’s respect for the Constitution. She also slammed Democrats for politicizing American symbols and defended the parade as a “celebration of freedom, not royalty.” #TrumpPressBriefing #KarolineLeavitt #NoKingsDay #FoxNews #AlexandriaHoff #TrumpMilitaryParade #WhiteHouseDrama #ICEProtests #AmericanFlag #KingTrump #PoliticalSatire #FirstAmendment #MediaFireworks #WashingtonProtests #ReporterVsPressSec #FreePress #ConstitutionalDebate #TrumpBirthdayEvent #RightToProtest #USPolitics #oneindianews #oneindiaenglish #breakingnews #worldnews #englishnewslive #englishnews #latestnews #news ~HT.410~ED.194~

As Los Angeles erupts in chaos over Trump’s immigration enforcement crackdown, the White House has deployed 700 U.S. Marines and 2,000 additional National Guard troops to the city — all without California Governor Gavin Newsom’s consent. The dramatic military surge, aimed at quelling violent protests and protecting federal property, has ignited a fierce legal and political battle.
