Mahmoud Khalil Paid the Dollar Bond
American Thinker ^ | 17 Jun, 2025 | Charlton Allen

Posted on 06/18/2025 4:26:59 AM PDT by MtnClimber

The $1 bond was paid. But for someone so eager to torch the American house, Khalil is oddly determined to keep a room in it.

On Friday, the only door that opened was the one back to his cell.

Mahmoud Khalil, Columbia’s most litigious Gaza sympathizer, had seemingly triumphed in federal court—only to find himself right back where he started.

Down in Louisiana, where the alligators grow so mean.

After days of breathless media coverage and a headline-generating injunction questioning the legality of Mahmoud Khalil’s detention, Judge Michael Farbiarz quietly reversed course.

In a terse, two-page order, he declined to release Khalil after all. The reason? The government had landed on firmer legal ground: Khalil allegedly lied on his visa application. And under the law, that alone is enough.

So much for the First Amendment showdown.

So much for judicial scrutiny of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s motives.

No need for sweeping declarations or a walking tour through the mind of Laurence Tribe.

Lying still matters. Bill Clinton must be stunned.

This saga began with Judge Farbiarz’s May 28 ruling—a judicial odyssey stretching over 100 pages, packed with constitutional speculation and commentary on The Immigration and Nationality Act’s (INA’s) foreign policy removal authority.

A shorter, revised version of that opinion was filed on June 11. The next day, June 12, Khalil posted his symbolic $1 bond. And on June 13—just hours before the DOJ filed its decisive letter shifting the legal grounds for detention—this publication ran my most recent analysis of the case.

The DOJ’s letter cut through the fog, alerting the court that Khalil could—and would—remain detained under 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(1)(A), which allows removal for aliens who were inadmissible at entry—including for fraud or material misrepresentation under § 1182(a)(6)(C).

Farbiarz got the message—his Friday afternoon order dispensed

They get representation in congress based on the number of people in their districts. Not citizens. People. They were let in to establish a permanent Democrat leviathan.

Will Ilhan Omar, the Somali, be next? Or does she get a pass for lying because she is a Democrat? Asking for a friend.

If 5 million illegals leave California, they lose several seats to other red states, and the seats left in California are more likely to go red.

It's almost as if the Trump Administration knew what it was doing when it picked these poster children for deportation.

And not just because the initial round of deportees are the dirt bags that they are.

One gets the distinct impression that there is a lot more criminal background on guys like Khalil and The Maryland Dad than meet the eye.

And the massive push mobilized by the Progressive Democrat movers and shakers at the highest levels of Congress, our Judicial System and academia to defend them and keep them in the country suggests that they and the organizations that they represent have deep ties to and influence with the Democrat Party's power structure.

Which is kind of eye opening given that Khalil ties are to international terrorism and the Maryland Dad is a member of MS-13, one of the most violent criminal cartels in the world

People have always suspected that Democrat pol are closely tied to terrorist groups especially Iran and Iranian proxy's like Hamas and to Mexican and South/Central American criminal cartels and perhaps we are seeing the proof of these suspicions in the Democrat Party's desperate response to these deportations

The problem still facing this admin is that these cases are being individually processed. There is now no mass deportation orders or legal capability to do so. so the left commies have still won/imho.

“so the left commies have still won/imho.”

This is only one person that got delayed. They been deporting thousands a day and since Trump cut the gravy train off to illegals over a million have self deported.

Trump’s campaign of fear for those that are here illegally is working better than ICE. Which is a good thing. And the left is helping with their resistance. Why? They are indirectly amplifying the message that ICE is coming for them and it will be better to leave on their own terms.

About 2-3 years ago, I personally witnessed hispanic women with a child on their hips at several different dept stores filling shopping carts with home goods. Enough to set up an ENTIRE household - silverware, dinnerware sets, bakeware, pots and pans, towels, multiple sheet sets, comforter sets, pictures that filled several carts - I have NO DOUBT they paid for this with BIDEN’S DEBIT CARDS which were filled with THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS while Americans struggle.

F that diaper clad POS.

I hope these leeches flee for their 💩hole homelands after their parasitic welfare is cut off.

And I noticed them because OBVIOUS AMERICANS only had a few items/necessities in their carts while these sows, dressed in dirty Goodwill clothes, were shopping easily over $1000 in luxury items.

Quite so. Well explained.
