Rubio confirms ICE arrest of pro-Palestinian Columbia student protest leader

The arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist who organized protests about the Gaza war, raises concerns over protections for foreign students and green card holders against deportation.
Khalil is detained in Jena, Louisiana, awaiting court proceedings that may lead to deportation without being convicted of any crime.
Officials assert that Khalil's arrest is linked to orders against antisemitism, with the argument that support for Hamas forfeits rights to remain in the U.S..
Khalil has not been charged with any wrongdoing, and his lawyer claimed agents initially acted on a State Department order before switching to green card revocation.
