Columbia student faces deportation after legal issues

Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil was arrested by ICE and faces deportation after his green card was reportedly revoked. Tom Homan, a border official, stated that any resident alien can be deported for committing crimes. Khalil is in ICE custody in Louisiana, with a federal judge temporarily halting his deportation until a hearing on Wednesday. His lawyer claims he has not violated any laws or residency terms. Homan emphasized that foreign students must obey U.S. laws while studying. Khalil's case has raised concerns about the treatment of lawful dissent and the rights of green card holders.
