A federal judge in Manhattan ruled that anti-Israel agitator Mahmoud Khalil is not to be deported "unless and until the Court orders otherwise," on Monday.
Khalil, who led anti-Israel protests and encampments on Columbia University's campus, was taken into custody on the Upper West Side in New York City on Saturday. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said that he was a former Columbia graduate student who "led activities aligned to Hamas, a designated terrorist organization."
The judge ordered a hearing for Wednesday. This after Khalil's lawyer argued their client had been detained illegally and should be released.
Politicians have also spoken out in defense of Khalil. "Squad" member Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., criticized his arrest, calling the incident an "egregious violation of constitutional rights."
In a post published to Instagram on Sunday, Tlaib wrote that it was "dangerous to allow our government to target people based on political speech," and warned that "more targeting of students like this will happen."
"Everyone should be concerned about this," Tlaib said in the Instagram video.
The Michigan congresswoman also addressed the reports about Khalil having a student visa revoked after his lawyer said he was a legal permanent resident.
"They were revoking his student visa, well, guess what? He doesn't have a student visa," Tlaib claimed. "He's a green card holder. Legal permanent resident."

Ironic that this POS hates America, but doesn’t want to leave..guess all the freebies the Govt is giving him to spew his pro hamas vile is enough to make him want to stay. You come to this country and you stand with Hamas, guess what, you are GONE, PERIOD..if anyone after the 9/11 attacks who had been given citizenship here had had protests calling what Biden Laden did “The best day of their lives” they would have been GONE that day!
Saw this coming a mile away.
Do it anyway. F the “judge”.
Only deport him halfway...
Dies the judge deny that he is violating the law? He has not rights. He is not a citizen.
Fly his ass out anyway and tell the judge to bring him back
Notice the Judge is not named? All the judges that have ruled against Trump so far are 99% foreign named judges.
I smell the rats at Perkins-Coe, or similar. Who is doing his bidding in federal court, and on who’s tab? Follow the money.
Federal judges need to be removed. Seriously. Too many self-appointed wanna-be Presidents.
Nevermind, found the Judge:
U.S. District Judge Jesse M. Furman, an Obama appointee.
Deport the judge, too.
THAT JUDGE IS OUT OF HIS/HER LANE AND LOST IN EXTRA-CONSTITUTIONAL SPACE.
BAN THAT JUDGE FROM USING ALL U.S. GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS, PROPERTIES, FORMS OF COMMUNICATIONS, AND TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS.
Green card or visa does not matter when you openly give aid or comfort to a declared terrorist organization. The President has sole executive authority to manage immigrants and foreign nationals in our country.
“judge” Jesse M. Furman, an obamastooge.
Confirmed 62 to 34 in the US Senate.
TFB! Ignore and carry on!
Thank goodness federal judges substitute themselves for our Article II President.
