Trump administration targets pro-Palestine activists for deportation
Mahmoud Khalil, a pro-Palestine activist and Columbia University graduate, was arrested by ICE agents in New York despite showing legal residency documents. His lawyer claims the agents provided no reason for revoking his green card. President Trump stated this arrest is the first of many targeting pro-Palestine activists, labeling them as "pro-terrorist." Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced plans to revoke visas of individuals supporting Hamas. The Trump administration is using immigration laws to deport individuals deemed harmful to U.S. foreign policy. Critics argue this approach could backfire, potentially increasing support for the pro-Palestine movement.
