An immigration judge in Louisiana has ordered the federal government to provide evidence justifying its attempt to deport Columbia University student activist Mahmoud Khalil, a permanent U.S. resident and pro-Palestinian activist. The government has accused Khalil of potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences and failing to disclose information on his residency application. Khalil’s lawyer argues that the claims are unfounded and unconstitutional. The Department of Homeland Security has alleged Khalil’s activities are aligned with Hamas, but there is no evidence of support to a terrorist organization. White House press secretary claims Khalil harassed Jewish American students and distributed pro-Hamas propaganda. Khalil is awaiting a hearing on Friday to determine if he can be removed from the United States. His legal team believes there is no opportunity for due process and are concerned about the rushed decision. Khalil and his wife are expecting their first child this month, adding emotional stress to the situation.
