Mahmoud Khalil can be expelled for his beliefs alone, US government argues

Guardian staff and agency Thu 10 Apr 2025 16.09 EDT

"The two-page memo, which was obtained by the Associated Press, does not allege any criminal conduct by Khalil, a legal permanent US resident and graduate student who served as spokesperson for campus activists last year during large demonstrations against Israel’s treatment of Palestinians and the war in Gaza.

Rather, Rubio wrote Khalil could be expelled for his beliefs."
