On Monday, a federal choose briefly blocked Trump’s try to deport Khalil. Decide Jesse Furman ordered a listening to on Khalil’s case in New York Metropolis on Wednesday. 

Khalil’s lawyer, Amy Greer, mentioned in an announcement obtained by CNN that Khalil’s spouse was current throughout his arrest. Greer spoke with Khalil on Monday, saying that he was “healthy and his spirits are undaunted by his predicament.”

“He was chosen as an example to stifle entirely lawful dissent, in violation of the First Amendment,” she mentioned within the assertion. “The government’s objective is as transparent as it is unlawful.”

Trump’s actions foreshadow a darkish future as he gears as much as enact a revised and strengthened Muslim ban, which incorporates language that many are involved may very well be used to focus on present visa and inexperienced card holders, like Khalil.

“You may soon live in a country where you can assault a police officer and storm the Capitol to overturn a Democratic election and walk off scot-free,” Jamal Abdi, president of the Nationwide Iranian American Council mentioned in the course of the press convention.
