DoomsdaysCWTHIS IS BULLSHIT! (AND ILLEGAL!!!) Pressed for evidence against <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MahmoudKhalil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MahmoudKhalil</a>, government cites its power to deport people for beliefsBy Jake Offenhartz, April 10, 2025NEW YORK (AP) — "Facing a deadline from an immigration judge to turn over evidence for its attempted deportation of Columbia University activist Mahmoud Khalil, the federal government has instead submitted a brief memo, signed by Secretary of State <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MarcoRubio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarcoRubio</a>, citing the Trump administration’s authority to expel <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/noncitizens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#noncitizens</a> whose presence in the country damages U.S. foreign policy interests."The two-page memo, which was obtained by The Associated Press, does not allege any criminal conduct by Khalil, a legal permanent U.S. resident and graduate student who served as spokesperson for campus activists last year during large demonstrations against <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Israel</a>’s treatment of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Palestinians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Palestinians</a> and the war in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gaza</a>."Rather, Rubio wrote Khalil could be expelled for his beliefs."He said that while Khalil’s activities were 'otherwise lawful,' letting him remain in the country would undermine 'U.S. policy to combat <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AntiSemitism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiSemitism</a> [sez the folks who do the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Nazi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nazi</a> salute] around the world and in the United States, in addition to efforts to protect Jewish students from harassment and violence in the United States.'"'Condoning anti-Semitic conduct and disruptive protests in the United States would severely undermine that significant foreign policy objective,' Rubio wrote in the undated memo."The submission was filed Wednesday after Judge Jamee Comans ordered the government to produce its evidence against Khalil ahead of a hearing Friday on whether it can continue detaining him during immigration proceedings."Attorneys for Khalil said the memo proved the Trump administration was 'targeting Mahmoud’s <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FreeSpeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeSpeech</a> rights about <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Palestine</a>.'"'After a month of hiding the ball since Mahmoud’s late-night unjust arrest in New York and taking him away to a remote detention center in Louisiana, immigration authorities have finally admitted that they have no case whatsoever against him,' the attorneys, Marc Van Der Hout and Johnny Sinodis, said in a joint statement.

The law, passed in 1798, gives presidents the authority to remove foreign nationals over the age of 14 from countries where the United States is either engaged in a declared war or subject to “invasion or predatory incursion” by their country of origin. The act has been invoked three times in U.S. history, each time during wartime, and is meant to counter the actions of foreign governments and regimes, not alleged criminals, gangs, or non-state actors. The law was also used to justify Japanese internment during WWII, and now, the Trump administration is using it to justify its deportations. In an unsigned opinion, the Supreme Court tossed a district court decision that had temporarily blocked President Trump’s attempt to continue using the 227-year-old law after he sent almost 300 Venezuelan migrants to a notorious prison in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ElSalvador" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ElSalvador</a>, known for human rights abuses."All nine justices agreed, however, that anyone the administration is seeking to deport under the Alien Enemies Act must receive notice of deportation and be given the opportunity to challenge the removal through '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/habeas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#habeas</a> petitions' — meaning that migrants have the right to have their detention or deportation reviewed by the federal court, but only for themselves and in the area where they are being detained. "The court’s three liberal justices dissented from the ruling, while Justice <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AmyConeyBarrett" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AmyConeyBarrett</a>, who was appointed by Trump, partially dissented. Barrett joined Justice <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SoniaSotomayor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SoniaSotomayor</a>’s dissent calling the majority’s legal conclusion 'suspect' and questioning if habeas claims should be the only way to contest deportations under the act."'The Court’s legal conclusion is suspect,' wrote <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Sotomayor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sotomayor</a>. 'The Court intervenes anyway, granting the Government extraordinary relief and vacating the District Court’s order on that basis alone.'"Read more: <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/supreme-court-ruling-alien-enemies-act-1798-trump-1235312485/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/supreme-court-ruling-alien-enemies-act-1798-trump-1235312485/</a>Archived version: <a href="https://archive.ph/BJSoh" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://archive.ph/BJSoh</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ICEDetention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ICEDetention</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IllegalDeportations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IllegalDeportations</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SecretPolice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SecretPolice</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HumanRightsViolations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HumanRightsViolations</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ConstitutionalRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ConstitutionalRights</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HumanRights</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SCOTUSIsCompromised" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SCOTUSIsCompromised</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SCOTUSIsCorrupt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SCOTUSIsCorrupt</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ForcedDisappearances" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ForcedDisappearances</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MemoryHoled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MemoryHoled</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/1798AlienEnemiesAct" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#1798AlienEnemiesAct</a>

The Trump administration claims it’s powerless to bring him back to his family in Maryland. "'They have dug in their heels at every step of the way,' says Abrego Garcia’s lawyer, Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, about the government’s defense. 'It’s ridiculous that this case is at the Supreme Court at all.'"Behind Abrego Garcia’s ICE arrest and removal is Trump’s invocation of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/1798AlienEnemiesAct" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#1798AlienEnemiesAct</a>, a wartime authority last deployed during <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WorldWarII" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WorldWarII</a>.
