Follow the effing law. If he committed a crime, say so. Charge him with it publicly. He is a green card holder (and married to a US Citizen.). He has followed the law and is here in the US legally. As a green card holder he is entitled to most of the protections of the Constitution (I'm not sure exactly which ones he isn't entitled to, I'm sure that the courts have had something to say about it.) If he's been charged with a crime, then say so and say what the crime is. Follow the law. Respect our Constitution. Respect our First Amendment rights. We do not charge people with crimes merely for disagreeing with Donald Trump. Merely for disagreeing with MAGA republicans. We do not charge people with a crime for protesting peacefully, no matter what opinions they are shouting. We do not charge people for distributing the opinions on leaflets. Even if we don't like what the leaflets are saying. Even if we don't like who they are supporting. The bar is HIGH for proving someone is supporting a terror organization BTW. If he committed a crime while protesting? Say what the crime was. Charge him with the crime. If it was a crime in NYC it should be charged and prosecuted in NYC where the crime was committed. Do not pick him up and move him out of state. This is someone who has a Green Card. (Not that this is acceptable treatment for any immigrant. But especially because he is a Green Card holder.) Don't say "Well, IF he committed a crime while protesting, you know, he MIGHT have... and IF he did he will lose his Green Card status." No. That's not how protection of your civil liberties works. Follow the law. IF he committed a crime, there's a process to follow. Follow it. Trump's method of operation is to commit egregious violations of the law, and only care if enough people protest it. Protest this. |
I know what you wrote. It's not legal And it's a dictator move You can't just take people like this in country. Full stop |
If you want full rights get citizenship if not be subject to deportation if you act up |
In your dreams maybe |
Well, it does seem to be something Khalil is quite in support of himself. But I agree that the US should have higher standards than Hamas, even if Khalil himself is a strong supporter of kidnapping innocents, including babies. That having been said, this isn’t kidnapping and it’s offensive to describe it as such. |
Ah yes the part where they throw people in jail for saying things they don’t like.
These are the same guys talking about free speech and no censorship. |
"An alien whose presence or activities in the United States the Secretary of State has reasonable ground to believe would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States is deportable." LOL Please describe how this applies to Mahmoud Khalil. |
I would like to see proof that Khalil said he is a strong supporter of kidnapping babies. Have you’ve been to any of the student protests? They were not protesting to support 10/7 they were protesting for a ceasefire. |

Please share the specific action he took at that was illegal? Ie violated an actual law. |
And I’m sure Trump is preparing the investigation into the antisemites who refused to arrest him, and deport those individuals as well if they support Hamas (like it looks like they do). |
His actions at Columbia University during a protest. 18 U.S. Code § 1203 - Hostage taking https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1203 |
And in acting up, there is still due process. No one has the legal power to just kidnap someone without a warrant and abscond with them elsewhere. |
Armed officers physically removed him from his residence without legal cause to do so. How do you define it otherwise? |
He’s not a citizen. He’s not protected by the US Constitution. He doesn’t even like it here, so not sure the big deal. Time to go! |
