Khalil Mahmoud solidarity protesters in Tampa march on UCF

On the 12th of March, protesters supporting Khalil Mahmoud assembled at 50th and Fowler, them marched to the main entrance of University of S Florida (USF). USF infamously sicced the cops on a pro-Palestine encampment in April 2024.

There were protests presumably all over the US for Khalil on March 12. At Columbia where Khalil was a graduate student Jewish students held a large protest denouncing Trump and ICE for the lawless "arrest" of Mahmoud. The protest at USF's gates was part of this day of action.

USF like Columbia U has an infamous record of violently attacking pro-Palestine protests, and of attempting to have pro-Palestine organizers deported after "suspension" or expulsion. Both universities first sicced the cops on student activists, then sicced ICE on them.

Khalil Mahmoud's court hearing did not go wel: the judge while not authorizing immediate deportation allowed ICE to continue holding him, more hearings are scheduled. Trump is beating his chest about this case and warning of more "arrests." One attempt again at Columbia has already been defeated however: ICE agents tried again to enter student housing but were blocked from entering. It is doubtful they will ever get in again short of battering rams and battle.

#Trump WH ofcls said the #DHS, which oversees #ICE, investigated #MahmoudKhalil’s activities, but immigration officers provided no written evidence to support his deportation beyond #MarcoRubio’s determination. The doc, a notice to appear in #immigration court, says Khalil is a citizen of Algeria & has an #immigration court hearing later this month.

Orlando: Protesters at Federal building housing immigration court demand unconditional release of Khalil Mamhoud.

On the 11th of March, protesters in front of Orlando's Federal building demanded that Trump release Khalil Mamhoud and cancel plans to round up and deport pro-Palestine students. Protesters warned "You are not safe if Mahmoud isn't safe."

A few days back, #ICE detained a #Palestinian student who helped to coördinate protests against the genocide in #Gaza. They told him that his student visa AND his green card (i.e., legal permanent residence) had been revoked. #USGestapo #AbolishICE

Another tourist has been detained indefinitely in the U.S. by ICE… a Brit trying to enter Canada.

“She’s in this orange prison outfit,” he said. “She just feels so isolated and desperate, you can imagine, she’s saying, ‘I want to come home’.”

She is safe, he said, but living “in horrendous conditions” and had not had access to legal representation.

Stop traveling to the U.S, It’s not safe.

So uh, what stage of "you can't call it fascism!"TM is it when Downmarket Mussolini sends the immigration Gestapo that pretty much answers to only him, to unlawfully arrest student protest leaders who are legally in the country, and disappear them into the labyrinth of the American migrant carceral complex?

Ice arrests Palestinian activist who helped lead Columbia protests, lawyer says

"Mahmoud Khalil was at his university-owned apartment, blocks from the private Ivy League university’s main campus in New York when several Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents entered the building and took him into custody, his attorney, Amy Greer, told the Associated Press.

One of the agents told Greer by phone that they were executing a state department order to revoke Khalil’s student visa. Informed by the attorney that Khalil, who graduated last December, was in the United States as a permanent resident with a green card, the agent said they were revoking that too, according to the lawyer.

The arrest comes as Donald Trump vows to deport foreign students and imprison “agitators” involved in protests against Israel’s war in Gaza."

As the story goes on to mention, Khalil, who is Palestinian, is in the United States on a legally-issued Green Card, which cannot be revoked by either ICE Gestapo pigs or our fascist State Department without the order of an immigration judge; which makes this an unlawful arrest and detention. What the story doesn't discuss however is that Khalil's wife, who is eight months pregnant, is an American citizen. I mention these things not because it would somehow be "okay" for the fascist Trump regime to snatch up a student leader for the (not illegal) "crime" of protesting a genocide if he only had a student visa, or his wife wasn't a U.S. Citizen, but to point out that clearly the administration and its security forces do not give a flying fuck about any of the rules they're violating or laws they're breaking to punish dissent. Furthermore, reports posted on social media by a person identifying themselves as Khalil's lawyer, indicate that the Department of Homeland Security has *already* moved Mahmoud, possibly as far as Georgia, and thus he does not have access to legal representation. If this were Middle Eastern country with oil reserves, our establishment would rightfully note that the regime has thus effectively "disappeared" what amounts to a political prisoner.

Folks, I don't want to sound like a broken record here, but like I've been telling you (even long before Trump was re-elected) the fact is that fascists don't give a fuck about the laws, rules, or standard operating procedures. If the law can be used to justify seizing power, eliminating civil rights, and punishing enemies they're happy to employ it. But if not, they'll replace or simply ignore any rule that gets in the way of the attempts to purge the opposition and transform society into the full on fascist dictatorship of their dreams. You don't get to let this one slide because "he's not an American," you don't care about Gaza, or you've been taught to hate student protestors by your media and the larger ruling class establishment. If Americans (including the nominal opposition in the US establishment) stand by and watch this happen to folks like Mahmoud Khalil, then it is an absolute historical certainty that it is only a matter of time before Trump is sending jackbooted thugs after anyone who won't goosestep along with the fascist order - and that includes figures in our complicit media and political classes. A whole bunch of affluent liberals have spent the past couple of years tossing around historical warnings about how Nazism and the Holocaust happened in Germany; now its time to prove you understand the lessons those words were trying to teach you about resisting the slide into overt fascism before it goes far enough that you can no longer stop it - because I assure you, if you tolerate this then (you and) your children *will* be next.

#ICE arrests #Palestinian protest leader at #Columbia, in sharp escalation of campus actions

Jewish groups and leaders immediately spoke out both in favor and against the arrest

from #TheForward #Forward
[#Jewish publication from #USA]

"#BendTheArc, a progressive #Jewish group..., tweeted that President #DonaldTrump was playing on fears of antisemitism in order to pursue an anti-democratic agenda.

“The #WhiteHouse’s authoritarian actions are being falsely done in our name as #Jews, by a President and politicians who actively use antisemitism and do not speak for Jews,” the group tweeted. “We’ve been afraid this day would come since campus protests began. Free speech and education are pillars of our democracy, and a healthy democracy is what keeps Jews safest.”

The Anti-Defamation League ... praised the arrest while calling for immigration law to be followed. "

When agents arrived to arrest Mahmoud Khalil they threatened to also arrest his 8-month's pregnant wife for standing up for his rights.

Mahmoud was told by cops that his "student visa was revoked" but he doesn't need a visa because he is a green card holder.

US Palestinian college activist Mahmoud Khalil has been illegally arrested by ICE over the weekend.

Khalil is a green card holder and there is no known legal justification for his arrest. This appears to have been an arbitrary arrest at the direction the White House. Last I heard Khalil has not been allowed to speak to a lawyer. He has been transfered over 1000 miles to ICE detention in Louisiana.

Not only do the outrageous fees you pay as an “alien” (their term, not mine) keep their universities afloat, but your kid could be arbitrarily detained by their gestapo for demonstrating a conscience.

So, this case is potentially a BIG DEAL! If the #WhiteHouse is calling for arrest of LEGAL students and protestors, that's a violation of a LOT of laws!

#ICE arrests #PalestinianActivist who helped lead #ColumbiaUniversity #protests, his lawyer says

Updated 6:32 PM EDT, March 9, 2025

NEW YORK (AP) — "Federal immigration authorities arrested a #Palestinian graduate student who played a prominent role in protests against #Israel at Columbia University, according to his attorney.

"#MahmoudKhalil was inside a university-owned residence Saturday night near Columbia’s Manhattan campus when several Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents entered his apartment and took him into custody, his attorney, Amy Greer, told The Associated Press.

"Greer said she spoke by phone with one of the ICE agents during the arrest, who said they were acting on #StateDepartment orders to revoke Khalil’s student visa. Informed by the attorney that Khalil was in the United States as a permanent resident with a green card, the agent said they were revoking that too, according to the lawyer.

"The arrest appeared to be among the first known actions under President Donald #Trump’s pledge to deport international students who joined the protests against the war in Gaza that swept college campuses last spring. His administration has claimed participants forfeited their rights to remain in the country by supporting Hamas, a terror organization.

"When ICE agents arrived at the campus building Saturday, they also threatened to arrest Khalil’s wife, an #AmericanCitizen who is eight months pregnant, Greer said. The authorities declined to say why Khalil was being arrested, according to the attorney."
