It really should have been so easy to deport Khalil in the first place. He came in on a student visa in 2022 to attend Columbia University and immediately started protesting and whipping up hatred of Jews. His student visa ended. The US government has no need to keep him on any work visa. They do not have to give him any visa. Threatening to kill Jews, destroy Israel, and destroy America is more than enough to get him booted. He’s a hardcore Hamas supporter, and that’s enough.
Immigration judge orders Mahmoud Khalil deported to Syria or Algeria
An immigration judge in Louisiana has ordered pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, a legal permanent resident of the U.S., deported to Syria or Algeria for failing to disclose certain information on his green card application, according to documents filed in federal court Wednesday by his lawyers.
Khalil’s lawyers suggested in a filing that they intend to appeal the deportation order, but expressed concern that the appeal process will likely be swift and unfavorable.
The order from the immigration judge, Jamee Comans, came despite a separate order in Khalil’s federal case in New Jersey blocking his deportation while that court considers Khalil’s legal argument that his detention and deportation are unlawful retaliation for his Palestinian advocacy.
The Biden regime gave a guy who advocated death to Jews and destruction of Israel and the US while expressing favorable opinions and support for Hamas, a US designated terrorist organization. The US has every right to pull that green card when the person is a threat to the US and national security.
In a letter to the New Jersey federal judge, Michael Farbiarz, Khalil’s lawyers said they have 30 days from Sept. 12, the date of the immigration judge’s ruling, to appeal her decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals. The lawyers said they expect that process to be “swift” and that an appeal of the BIA decision, which would go to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, is unlikely to be successful, since, they wrote, the appeals court “almost never” grants stays of removal to noncitizens.
“As a result,” they wrote, “the only meaningful impediment to Petitioner’s physical removal from the United States would be this Court’s important order prohibiting removal during the pendency of his federal habeas case.” And, they wrote, “nothing would preserve his lawful permanent resident status.”
In a statement, Khalil, a Palestinian originally from Syria, accused the Trump administration of using “fascist tactics.”
Yeah yeah yeah. Don’t be a terrorist supporter. You made your choice. Seriously, Democrats are defending this guy, but, then, so many Democrats hate Jews, hate Israel, and hate the United States.
His legal argument is that foreigners have a legal right to illegally stay in the USA forever if they are anti-social far left activists?
Why does it seem to take a supermajority of judges to deport a foreigner who is illegally in the USA when it only takes one judge to stop the deportation?
Imagine that.
Bwaha! Lolgf!
