Summary

ICE agents arrested Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, a leader in Columbia University's encampment movement, claiming his student visa was revoked.

However, his attorney Amy Greer states he has a green card, not a student visa.

Despite filing a habeas corpus petition, Greer can't locate where Khalil is being held, noting his eight-months-pregnant wife couldn't find him at a New Jersey facility.

The arrest follows Trump's March 4 social media threat to defund universities allowing "illegal protests" and deport "agitators."

You: "I think people in the US should benefit from universal healthcare."

US Govt: "You are under arrest for activities aligned to Luigi Mangione."
