Judge says US effort to deport Mahmoud Khalil on foreign policy grounds is likely unconstitutional
from #AssociatedPress #AP #APNews
By JAKE OFFENHARTZ
Updated 6:58 PM EDT, May 28, 2025NEW YORK (AP) — A federal judge said the #Trump administration’s effort to deport #MahmoudKhalil because of his pro-#Palestinian activism at #ColumbiaUniversity likely violates the #Constitution.
In a lengthy order issued Wednesday, Judge Michael Farbiarz wrote the government’s primary justification for removing Khalil — that his beliefs may pose a threat to U.S. foreign policy — could open the door to vague and arbitrary enforcement.

Not everyone is prepared to do #DirectAction and risk arrest. However, that doesn't mean you can't get involved. Some good tips here for anyone who is new to #activism, or who wants to learn more...
"Here in the United States, a common place to start researching #environmentalism is in the works of #AldoLeopold, #RachelCarson, and #EdwardAbbey. Although the work of these authors is undeniably crucial to understanding the landscape of modern environmentalist thought, it’s only a skim of the surface of the centuries of work done by #Indigenous leaders to protect and conserve #Earth and the natural resources we can’t live without –– the water we drink, the air we breathe."
The Introvert’s Guide to Environmental Activism
by Deanna Pratt | Mar 7, 2020
"Putting yourself out there and standing up for something you believe in can be really intimidating. Especially if you’re an introvert.
"Inside of most environmental activists and organizers –– including myself –– there’s an intense battle raging on between our passion for environmental justice and our fear of being seen and heard. It takes an immense amount of vulnerability to put your most intimate beliefs and worldviews out in the open for the world to see.
"Despite that, we still choose to post on social media, attend rallies, and organize community meet-ups and events because we know it’s what we have to do in the face of the climate crisis.
"If you’re someone who wants to get involved in environmental activism but, you’re not sure how to comfortably start, this guide is for you.
"Here are three steps you can take to progressively ease into environmental activism and community outreach."
