Editors note: Please see the Editors UPDATES we will be placing in order of most-recent below. TheBlazes Jonathon M. Seidl contributed to this report.
Key points:
On Sean Hannitys Fox News program Wednesday night, terror expert Steve Emerson cited sources saying Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, the Saudi national who was briefly named a person of interest in the Boston Marathon bombings, is being deported on Tuesday.
Thursday morning, Glenn Beck revealed on radio that TheBlaze was informed by sources that the Saudi nationals visa had been revoked and he was, in fact, going to be deported on security and related grounds.
Among other things, sources told TheBlaze that the Saudi national had ties to a well-connected Saudi family and that his deportation was set to be framed as a voluntary departure to be with his family.
A file, called an event, was started on him three days ago.
While discussing the issue on radio, TheBlazes Chief Content Officer Joel Cheatwood revealed that the government is now considering not deporting Ali Alharbi.
UPDATE V (12:13 pm ET):
Sen. Rand Paul reacted to TheBlazes report during a radio interview with Glenn Beck by saying he will be looking into the report. He also added that in general the United States needs to have more scrutiny on these students when they arrive.

The documents regarding the Saudi being a national security threat - should be released soon, as members of congress have it.
Boy, nepalitano is going to look like fool, and caught in an outright lie.
Thank goodness for those quick acting folks at the site tackling the Saudi though.
