Summary
ICE agents arrested Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, a leader in Columbia University’s encampment movement, claiming his student visa was revoked.
However, his attorney Amy Greer states he has a green card, not a student visa.
Despite filing a habeas corpus petition, Greer can’t locate where Khalil is being held, noting his eight-months-pregnant wife couldn’t find him at a New Jersey facility.
The arrest follows Trump’s March 4 social media threat to defund universities allowing “illegal protests” and deport “agitators.”
Yeah, it’s failed whataboutism.
News: “Trump admin deports completely legal green card holder.”
You: “but the Biden admin deported a lot of people, too!”
But not green card holders. Which is the point, Captain “they’re all the same.”
That wasn’t the comment I responded to, this comment thread is about Harris. I responded about Harris.
And yes, this one has a green card, so instead of being disappeared into jail for an indeterminate amount of time later to be released on court order, he’s disappeared into jail with his green card suspended later to be released on court order.
Yes, this comment thread is about how Harris wouldn’t be deporting green card holders.
Did you really miss the context that badly, or are you just really separate to equate Trump and Biden/Harris?
