A lawsuit backed by George Soros–funded organizations has successfully delayed President Trump’s effort to deport over 500,000 migrants released during the Biden administration.

Two Soros-linked advocacy groups are now at the center of a major legal showdown with the Trump administration, filing a lawsuit that has temporarily blocked the deportation of migrants who entered the U.S. through President Biden’s controversial parole pipeline. In March, Trump rescinded Biden’s policy, which had allowed hundreds of thousands of migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to settle in the U.S. without legal status.

Rather than quietly exit the country, as ICE warned they’d be required to do, these migrants are now being defended by the Justice Action Center and Human Rights First—two groups heavily funded by the Soros network. The lawsuit claims that Trump cannot cancel Biden’s parole programs without case-by-case reviews.

On Monday, Obama-appointed Judge Indira Talwani issued a court order that blocks the administration from proceeding with deportations for now. Her decision halts Trump’s plan to revoke parole and work authorization for the migrants, calling it a violation of process rights.

According to grant records, the Soros-funded Open Society Foundations gave $450,000 to the Justice Action Center in 2023 and nearly $6.2 million to Human Rights First between 2016 and 2021. Both groups are central to the current litigation and have also backed similar legal efforts in the past to derail Trump’s immigration policies.

Just last month, Soros-backed Democracy Forward filed suit against Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport illegal alien gang members. The pattern is clear: legal attacks from Soros-tied organizations are once again being deployed to frustrate any serious attempt to enforce immigration law under Trump.

This case represents more than just another legal skirmish over immigration policy. It’s a full-frontal challenge to Trump’s broader push to reverse Biden’s open-borders approach. The Biden-era parole pipeline allowed over half a million foreign nationals into the U.S. under discretionary authority—despite their lack of formal immigration status. Under Trump’s executive order, those migrants were expected to voluntarily leave or face removal by ICE.

The lawsuit by Soros-funded groups argues that revoking this status without individualized assessments is unlawful. But Trump officials say Biden’s program was itself a reckless abuse of executive power, effectively granting mass amnesty under the guise of “parole.”

Judge Talwani’s stay halts deportations for now, but the legal fight is far from over. Trump’s DOJ is expected to appeal the decision, and Republican lawmakers are already blasting the ruling as judicial overreach.

As the battle intensifies, the case underscores how deeply embedded Soros-funded groups remain in the infrastructure of legal resistance to Trump’s agenda. What began under his first term is now picking up where it left off—and this time, the stakes are even higher.

The Trump administration maintains that returning control of immigration policy to the White House is essential to national sovereignty and public safety. Critics say these Soros-backed groups are attempting to bypass democracy by outsourcing policymaking to activist judges.

With over 532,000 parole recipients now in legal limbo, this lawsuit could become a defining test of executive authority in Trump’s second term. And as the legal briefs pile up, so does the public’s awareness of who is pulling the strings behind the scenes.
