Trump wins a case in court

Newsworthy News -  Federal judge hands President Trump a crucial victory by greenlighting ICE access to Medicaid data on illegal immigrants, turbocharging mass deportations starting January 2026.

Judge Vince Chhabria rules Trump administration can share migrants’ Medicaid data with ICE, reversing prior blocks.

Democratic states like California and Illinois fund migrant Medicaid, now aiding deportations.

DHS reports 2.5 million illegal aliens removed since 2024 election: 605,000 deportations, 1.9 million self-deportations.

Ruling bolsters Trump’s agenda to end taxpayer-funded benefits for undocumented immigrants.

Federal Judge Vince Chhabria ruled December 2025 that the Trump administration may share migrants’ Medicaid data with ICE effective January 6, 2026. This decision reverses months of legal blocks on the data sharing. Democratic-led states such as California and Illinois provide Medicaid to migrants through state programs. Chhabria determined the sharing is legally authorized under federal law and sufficiently explained in agency guidance. ICE gains a powerful tool to locate and deport undocumented immigrants exploiting public benefits.

DHS data shows over 2.5 million illegal aliens removed since Trump’s 2024 election victory. This total includes 605,000 formal deportations and 1.9 million self-deportations prompted by strict enforcement. The court ruling directly supports this agenda by enabling targeted operations using Medicaid enrollment records. American taxpayers, long burdened by costs of illegal immigration, see relief as benefits data identifies priority cases. Conservative principles of limited government and rule of law advance through restored data access.
