Maybe he should have re-considered being a shill for Hamas before coming to the U.S.
US detains British commentator Hamdi in middle of national speaking tour
U.S. immigration authorities detained British commentator Sami Hamdi, revoked his visa and said he would be deported rather than allowed to complete his speaking tour in the United States, a Homeland Security official said on Sunday.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement has Hamdi in custody, DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin posted on social media site X. “Under President Trump, those who support terrorism and undermine American national security will not be allowed to work or visit this country,” she wrote.
Hamdi spoke at a gala for the Council on American Islamic Relations in Sacramento, California on Saturday and was scheduled to speak on Sunday at one of the group’s events in Florida, the organization said in a statement. CAIR said he was detained at San Francisco International Airport.
Conservative figures had been urging the Trump administration to expel Hamdi from the United States.
CAIR and other Islamists are upset
(NY Post) Days after the attack, he reportedly told a crowd at a mosque in London to “celebrate the victory.”
“We are pitying a people who brought a huge victory since 1948,” he said. “Don’t pity them, they don’t want your pity. Celebrate the victory,” he said.
“How many of you felt it in your hearts when you got the news that it happened? How many of you felt the euphoria? Allahu Akbari!”
Hamdi also claimed Israel’s accusations of sexual violence committed by Hamas were false, according to The Telegraph.
Why would we allow an Islamic extremist be in the U.S.?
(Forward) “We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again: The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who support terrorism and actively undermine the safety of Americans,” The State Department posted to X. “We continue to revoke the visas of persons engaged in such activity.”
The US has no obligation. Democrats should realize that Islamists are in direct competition for control.

(AP) The detention by immigration authorities of a Chicago man whose 16-year-old daughter is undergoing treatment for advanced cancer is illegal, and he must be given a bond hearing by Oct. 31, a federal judge has ruled.
Attorneys for Ruben Torres Maldonado, 40, who was detained Oct. 18, have petitioned for his release as his deportation case goes through the system. While U.S. District Judge Jeremy Daniel said in an order Friday that Torres’ detention is illegal and violates his due process rights, he also said he could not order his immediate release.
Why is it illegal to hold an illegal alien pending deportation? Furthermore, let’s say Ruben was a US citizen who was being sent to the slammer: would the cancer have any bearing on that?
Mr Hamdi has a perfect right to say whatever he wants, but he doesn’t have a right to be in the United States to say it.
