ICE Arrests Palestinian Ringleader of Anti-Israel Columbia Protests

Trying to stop the people who are organizing riots and supporting Hamas is not blatantly wrong

I guess it depends on whether you believe in Freedom of Speech.

 

[rambot]

In that case he will sue. There’s probably lawyers lining up to represent the pro Hamas instigator

LOL! Yeah. Lining up to take on the Trump adminstration who have already indicated they're ready to punish ANY law firm that goes against them.

Well tye courts have ruled in favor of rye administration again. The government proved their case. This moves forward with the understanding that you cant come to this country and be involved in these activities and have a right to stay. You are a guest and shouldn't cause problems while here. It sounds like there was a bit more with this case, but the court was closed and there wasn't anyone inside to share all the information.

A "green card," officially known as a permanent resident card, is a document that grants individuals the right to live and work permanently in the United States,

I said he has no constitutional right to be here. A green card does not allow criminal activity on green cards..It grants the privilege to live and work here. That can be taken away...and it has.

Are you still stuck on the basic free speech issue? Because this involved more than that. And the government proved their case.

What is it you don't understand? The green card can be revoked PERIOD!

Oh, I understand just fine. Those who used to complain about "government overreach" were just mad they were targeting the wrong people.

How can it be the same thing? This case is all about the government doing what it is in their legal purview to do so. Which us to revoke a Green Card.

Oh yes? What specific action did he do to have his green card revoked? Fraud? Criminal Activity? Violating immigration Law? What evidence has the government presented?

Whatever evidence it was it worked because the court ruled in the adminstrations favor. They didn't have to present it to you or me. Just to the courts.

Which court was that that ruled in the administration's favor?

 

[rjs330]

Which court was that that ruled in the administration's favor?

The immigration court.

The judge ruled the Palestinian activist’s presence posed “potentially serious foreign policy consequences,” agreeing with a two-page memo from Secretary of State Marco Rubio earlier in the week accusing Khalil of undermining “U.S. policy to combat anti-Semitism” without citing any allegations of criminal activity.

A “removability finding” in immigration court means the judge has determined the individual is subject to removal from the United States due to a violation of immigration law or lack of legal immigration status. Khalil’s attorneys said they will appeal.

Now he wants to file an asylum case. Lol. He really wants to stay here to stir up trouble thats for sure.

Ah, yes. I'd lost track of that case.

A “removability finding” in immigration court means the judge has determined the individual is subject to removal from the United States due to a violation of immigration law or lack of legal immigration status. Khalil’s attorneys said they will appeal.

The immigration judge noted that she had no authority to challenge the determination of Sec State Rubio.

Now he wants to file an asylum case. Lol. He really wants to stay here to stir up trouble thats for sure.

He's challenged the constitutionality of his detention.

Right. The evidence being "We don't like what he thinks". Are you OK with this RJS330? Are you OK with the government deciding on thought crimes? Does this or does this not do exactly what I said, people decided that government overreach was fine as long as it is against those they do not like.

Is that what the evidence said? I hadn't read that. Last I knew the court was closed to outside people. Did you get your hands on a transcript or something?

Thoughtcrime: Pressed for evidence against Mahmoud Khalil, government cites its power to deport people for beliefs

NEW YORK (AP) — Facing a deadline from an immigration judge to turn over evidence for its attempted deportation of Columbia University activist Mahmoud Khalil, the federal government has instead submitted a brief memo, signed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, citing the Trump administration’s...

Rather, Rubio wrote Khalil could be expelled for his beliefs.


He said that while Khalil’s activities were “otherwise lawful,” letting him remain in the country would undermine “U.S. policy to combat anti-Semitism around the world and in the United States, in addition to efforts to protect Jewish students from harassment and violence in the United States.”


“Condoning anti-Semitic conduct and disruptive protests in the United States would severely undermine that significant foreign policy objective,” Rubio wrote in the undated memo.


The submission was filed Wednesday after Judge Jamee Comans ordered the government to produce its evidence against Khalil ahead of a hearing Friday on whether it can continue detaining him during immigration proceedings.

That example is in no way a threat against the safety and well being of others.

Your opinion.

 

[Postvieww]

Indeed. As I said. What first amendment?

This is not a first amendment issue. Studying in this country by foreign students does not give them the right to disrupt school operations, take over buildings, threaten Jewish students and protest in support of terrorist who seek our destruction. The secretary of state has the legal authority to revoke visas and deport. That is the law.

It most certainly is a first amendment issue which is why everyone is talking about the first amendment. Yes, the law does give him the right. I contend it is government overreach because we should not be deporting people based on their thoughts. Do you believe it OK to deport people for expressing a different point of view?

When they help organize or participate in protests that threaten Jewish students, block access to class, take over buildings and resort to violence, yes that is a point of view that is deportable. Protest in support of terrorist organizations that want to destroy our country by students who are guests in this country is absolutely a moral and legal grounds for deportation. This is not a simple point of view issue as you claim.
