Subject: Sure Sounds Like Fascism
King Donald has taken credit for the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil by ICE. Now, regardless of what you think of Khalil, either we are a country of laws backed by a Constitution or we are a dictatorship. While you may disagree with Khalil's politics, unless he has committed a crime by breaking a law, his arrest is unlawful. Organizing pro-Palestinian rallies at Columbia University is not a crime. And King Donald's executive order is not a law.

Khalil, who helped organize the school's pro-Palestinian rallies, was hauled away from his university-owned apartment Saturday night by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents after he was told his student visa was being revoked, his attorney said in a statement. Attorney Amy Greer added that ICE was informed that Khalil is a permanent resident with a green card but "detained him anyway."

The arrest seems to be a result of Trump's push to deport international students who protested against the war in Gaza.

Trump and his administration did not provide any evidence of the allegations against Khalil or any other protesters.

Khalil's wife, who is a U.S. citizen and eight months pregnant, said ICE will not tell her where Khalil is being detained.

So how is it okay to "disappear" a legal resident?
