The Trump administration is seeking to deport a Palestinian activist who took part in protests at Columbia University last year. Mahmoud Khalil was detained over the weekend by federal immigration agents. His detention has drawn widespread condemnation from civil liberties organizations, given that he has not been charged with a crime. Khalil is US a greencard holder and thus a permanent resident of the United States. A judge has ordered he cannot be deported until his lawyers’ legal challenge is considered.
