"The White House is defending the arrest of pro-Palestinian protest leader and Columbia University graduate student Mahmoud Khalil, and says the Department of Homeland Security plans to arrest more protesters moving forward.

On Tuesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the decision to arrest Khalil, a green card holder who is of Palestinian descent, fell in line with President Trump’s recent executive order aimed at cracking down on antisemitism on U.S. campuses. The order allows the administration to revoke visas and deport international students if they’re determined to be “pro-jihadist” or “Hamas sympathizers.”"

    White House says immigration officials are seeking more pro-Palestinian anti-genocide protesters

    Genocidal state propaganda like NPR is a major part of the problem.

    Good thing “Genocide Joe’s” VP isn’t in the white house, because this Administration is going swimmingly for you all.

      Good thing “Genocide Joe’s” party subverted the primary process and installed a pro-genocide candidate by fiat, who was such garbage that she lost to a reality TV clown.

      📺 Why the Democratic Party CANNOT and WILL NOT be Reformed Democrats would rather lose to a Republican, to a conservative, to a fascist, to Trump, than address the material conditions of the American people.
