Summary
ICE demanded that Momodou Taal, a Cornell PhD student and UK-Gambia dual citizen, surrender
after he sued the Trump administration over executive orders targeting foreign students in pro-Palestinian protests.
Taal, backed by the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, seeks to block deportation.
The request came soon after his lawyers sought a restraining order. Critics call the move unprecedented and politically motivated.
Taal fears arrest and deportation, while two other plaintiffs, both US citizens, claim the crackdown violates free speech rights on campus.
Seen a lot of leopards ate my face comments for the right but definitely applies here too
Anyone in the know about the United States and the history of this great country would steer fucking clear of it
Been here my whole life and even witnessed KKK marching openly with support downtown like some dystopian pride parade and it was a scheduled
Shit done in MLK’s days still happen
People are still underpaid living on a constantly polluted planet with shitty underfunded schools with no healthcare nor unity kept in place with the help of jackboots
This young student really thought the United States was anything but a country ran by a shadow group that use the elderly as puppets
Ah to be young again
Heaven forbid someone try to fight to make things better in a country
Forgot we’re just supposed to all give up apparently
That will surely be the way things get better
