Trump administration targets green card holders' political activism
The Trump administration has adopted a strict stance against political activism by foreign students and green card holders, threatening deportation for those perceived to support terrorism. This marks a significant shift in enforcement of immigration laws. Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University student linked to Hamas, is currently detained, facing legal challenges against his deportation. Officials argue that his activism violates U.S. laws, although specific charges have not been filed. The administration's approach has sparked debates over free speech and immigration rights. Some lawmakers criticize the detention as a threat to constitutional protections, while supporters argue for stricter immigration enforcement.
