President Trump is giving this anti-Israel campus rabble-rouser a ticket to study abroad — for good.
A Palestinian activist who led the disruptive protests at both Columbia University and Barnard College has been arrested by ICE agents at his campus apartment, according to his lawyer.
Mahmoud Khalil, who completed his graduate studies at Ivy League Columbia in December, also potentially faces having his visa revoked and his green card canceled following President Trump’s crackdown on unrest at colleges, attorney Amy Greer said Sunday.
He was inside his university-owned apartment a few blocks from campus Saturday night when ICE agents entered the residence and took him into custody, Greer said.

Arrest and deport 10,000 more; that will be a good start.

Nemat Talaat Shafik, Baroness Shafik (born 13 August 1962), commonly known as Minouche Shafik
Former President of Columbia University
"On 14 August 2024, Shafik resigned from the presidency"
August 14, 2024
"An economist and former president of the London School of Economics, Shafik was the first woman to lead the university. She came under fire shortly after her inauguration last fall. She was accused of not doing enough to protect Jewish students from discrimination and harassment, and critics said she waffled when she appeared before the House Education Committee in April to answer questions such as whether certain slogans would be considered antisemitic."

Having practiced immigration law for thirty-five years, I am puzzled how any person can have both a student visa (a non-immigrant visa) and a green card, which is a permanent residence permit. Those categories are mutually exclusive.

He's here on a student visa and graduated in December. For some stupid reason, he's still hanging around in a University-owned apartment. His student visa was for him to go to school, if he's finished with school he can go home. He was a guest in this country and has over-stayed his welcome breaking laws and disrupting the school.

Getting tired of all the La La names...what's with the changing of names and the La De Da spelling...a terrorist...is a terrorist...and needs to be deported...and don't forget to take his visa and green card...in addition to his many phones....and then send him packing to point east....like Gaza or perhaps Lebanon ....Syria is to dangerous for a leader of college students bored with their lives and wanting their own Woodstock moment....

Deport this Muslim trouble-making scum AND his 8 month pregnant partner NOW - before "birth right citizenship" gives them a permanent anchor.

#9, who says they missed it? Are his beliefs and assertions any different from anyone in Democratic Party national politics?

#4 brings up a very good point. Mahmoud Khalil's lawyer better have a very good explanation for the F-1 visa AND the green card. if not, he should be disbarred (and deported if necessary).
