#ColumbiaUniversity #protester #MahmoudKhalil files $20M claim against #Trump administration

NEW YORK (AP) — "On a recent afternoon, Mahmoud Khalil sat in his Manhattan apartment, cradling his 10-week-old son as he thought back to the pre-dawn hours spent pacing a frigid immigration jail in Louisiana, awaiting news of the child’s birth in New York.

"For a moment, the outspoken Palestinian activist found himself uncharacteristically speechless.

" 'I cannot describe the pain of that night,' Khalil said finally, gazing down as the baby, Deen, cooed in his arms. 'This is something I will never forgive.'

"Now, weeks after regaining his freedom, Khalil is seeking restitution. On Thursday, his lawyers filed a claim for $20 million in damages against the Trump administration, alleging Khalil was #FalselyImprisoned, maliciously prosecuted and smeared as an #antisemite as the government sought to deport him over his prominent role in campus protests.

"The filing — a precursor to a lawsuit under the #FederalTortClaimsAct — names the #DepartmentOfHomelandSecurity, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the #USStateDepartment.

"It comes as the deportation case against Khalil, a 30-year-old recent graduate student at Columbia University, continues to wind its way through the immigration court system."

AP News · Columbia protester Mahmoud Khalil files $20M claim against Trump administrationPalestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, whose role in campus protests against Israel led to his detention for over three months in immigration jail, is now seeking $20 million in damages from the Trump administration. His lawyers filed a claim Thursday, alleging false imprisonment and malicious prosecution after his March arrest by federal agents. Khalil, a legal U.S. resident, said he suffered severe anguish in jail, and continues to fear for his safety. The government has accused him of leading protests aligned with Hamas, but has not provided any evidence of a link to the terror group.

US Secretary of State Rubio describes classifying the AfD as 'definitely right-wing extremist' as 'tyranny in secret' (or 'tyranny in disguise'), which seems downright absurd in view of US President Trump's realpolitik.

But if you think about it, maybe not, because what the U.S. government itself practices is not a 'tyranny in disguise', but simply a completely open tyranny: both domestically and internationally!

Cuba Sends #Doctors, the US Sends #Sanctions

The #UnitedStates calls #Cuba’s medical internationalism "human trafficking" — but it’s really an internationalist lifeline for the #GlobalSouth.

On February 25, #US secretary of state #MarcoRubio announced restrictions on visas for both government officials in Cuba and any others worldwide who are “complicit” with the island nation’s overseas #medical-assistance programs. A #USStateDepartment statement clarified that the sanction extends to “current and former” officials and the “immediate family of such persons.”

"Greer said she spoke by phone with one of the ICE agents during the arrest, who said they were acting on State Department orders to revoke Khalil’s student visa. Informed by the attorney that Khalil was in the United States as a permanent resident with a green card, the agent said they were revoking that instead, according to the lawyer."
