Khalil, 30, was the first international student arrested in recent weeks amid an unprecedented crackdown by federal immigration authorities.

A federal judge on Friday ruled that the Trump administration can deport Columbia University graduate student Mahmoud Khalil just a month after his arrest prompted national outrage and marked the start of the federal government’s broader crackdown on foreign students.

Khalil has until April 23 to file for relief.

In his ruling the judge said, “the court will sustain charge of removability.”

Columbia university has been complicit with these actions and other actions by ice against employees and students.

I no longer view them as a place of higher education. Their participation in these acts goes against the values of free thought which is requisite in the pursuit of knowledge.

I advise anyone seeking education or employment at Columbia to rethink their goals and values.

Court: "You can't just deport people for no reason!"

Marco Rubio: "We don't like his opinions."

Court: "Understandable have a great day."

It's important to realize that immigration courts are not part of the Judiciary here, they are administrative courts that are part of the Executive Branch. So the judge works for Pam Bondi and Donald Trump, and has no independence whatsoever.

Oh. Actually that clarifies alot.

Coool so we're really truly committed to this route then okay. Is the only way out of this to try and get everybody to ban together and stop going to work until every last one of these evil fucks are removed from power? I can't even be sure the judge is actually okay with this seeing how willing and blatant this administration is with corruption.

Seems like it. If everybody just refuses to go to work, then the stock market crashes. The media likely wouldnt even cover it tho.

The media wouldn't be able to, nobody would be there to write the story

The Trump administration's beliefs are far far far far more dangerous. We have no justice right now.

Does anyone know the name of this so called judge? Asking for a friend.

MPR was talking about this claiming anti-sem justification.

FFS, has he looked at who his supporters are? A solid chunk of them would ship every non-white person out of here.

Plus, what about all the 'blue maga' folks that spent months clamoring how bad Biden/Harris would have been for the Palestinians and their supporters?
