Mahmoud Khalil, a legal U.S. resident and recent Columbia University graduate student, has not been charged with any crime.
Now this Louisiana Judge, U.S. District Judge Michael Farbiarz, wrote in a 106-page decision that he wants him to present further legal arguments for why he should be released.
That sounds the other way around to me; charge him first and present legal arguments why he is jailed ánd why he's transported to another state.

Mahmoud Khalil, Rümeysa Öztürk, and Alireza Doroudi are all being held in ICE detention in Jena, Louisiana. Jena represents the nexus of white supremacy, prison profiteering, and state repression. But its history also shows us the path of resistance. #FreeMahmoudKhalil https://mondoweiss.net/2025/04/why-pro-palestine-protesters-are-being-sent-to-a-for-profit-ice-prison-in-rural-louisiana/

#ICE Admits They Didn't Have a Warrant When They Arrested #MahmoudKhalil
"ICE has admitted it detained Mahmoud illegally and without a warrant—to justify it, they are now flat out lying with an absurd claim that he tried to flee," said a staff attorney at the Center for Constitutional Rights.

Mahmoud Khalil’s wife, Noor Abdalla, gave birth while he was detained—ICE denied his request to be present. 'I will fight every day for Mahmoud to come home to us,' she said.

“I welcomed our son into the world earlier today without Mahmoud by my side. Despite our request for ICE to allow Mahmoud to attend the birth, they denied his temporary release to meet our son. This was a purposeful decision by ICE to make me, Mahmoud, and our son suffer.”

“I hope this writing will startle you into understanding that a democracy for some — a democracy of convenience — is no democracy at all. I hope it will shake you into acting before it is too late,” he wrote.
The administration is deporting Khalil for nothing more than his beliefs, as Secretary of State Marco Rubio explicitly admitted in a memo turned over as evidence in his case."

#Harvard professors sue #Trump administration over funding cut threats
by Katie Cole, April 14, 2025, #WBUR
"The Harvard chapter of the American Association of University Professors sued the Trump administration Friday over what they call an 'unlawful and unprecedented' attempt to use federal funding cuts to restrict #FreeSpeech.
"The #DepartmentOfEducation announced in late March that it would review $8.7 billion in federal grants and contacts given to Harvard, alleging that the school failed to prevent #antisemitic discrimination on campus.
"The Trump administration then unveiled a broad set of demands on April 4 the university must agree to in order to keep getting federal funding, including cutting all diversity, equity and inclusion programming, and modifying any programming and departments that 'fuel antisemitic harassment.' The administration gave Columbia University a similar set of demands in March, which the school agreed to.
"The lawsuit by the professors' group, filed in #Massachusetts federal court, alleges that the administration's federal funding review violates the #TitleVI of the #CivilRightsAct, which prohibits discrimination in programs that receive federal funds. The court filing says the law requires specific procedures to cut federal funds and that the Trump administration has not taken any of those steps.
"The group said in a press release that the administration's actions are in effort to create a chilling effect among universities and faculty to stop speech that the president does not like.
" 'Eliminating discrimination and protecting all students is important,' said Nikolas Bowie, a Harvard law professor and the secretary-treasurer of the school's #AAUP chapter, in a statement. 'But Trump is defying the Civil Rights Act, terrifying students, and illegally holding hostage grants for hospitals and scientific research so he can accomplish his real goal of punishing academics for our politics.'
"The lawsuit says that the actions by the administration have 'already caused severe and irreparable harm by halting #academic #research and #inquiry at Harvard.'
"This is the second suit that the Harvard AAUP chapter has filed against the Trump administration this year. The first was a joint suit with other chapters, including one from Columbia, over federal efforts to deport #MahmoudKhalil and students that engaged in #ProPalestinian #activism."
