Activist deportations in the second Trump presidency

Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

During the second presidency of Donald Trump, the United States pursued a policy of targeting political dissidents, particularly pro-Palestinian international students and academics, for deportation.[1][2][3][4] The administration is reportedly using an artificial intelligence "catch and revoke" program to scrape social media posts and identify students who allegedly "support Hamas".[5] A number of detained and deported activists have been targeted by doxing campaigns prior to their arrest.[6][7][8]

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio estimates that over 300 visas have been revoked as of March 27, 2025.[9][10] On March 25, Rubio directed consulates to review the social media activity of student visa applicants for evidence of advocacy or approval of "terrorist activity".[11]

The American Association of University Professors and the Middle East Studies Association have filed suit against the Trump administration, arguing that it is promoting an "ideological deportation policy" that harms not only those the administration is attempting to deport, but also university communities more generally, and that pursuing students and faculty on the basis of their views is unconstitutional.[12]

Background

[edit]
Further information: Deportation in the second presidency of Donald Trump and Bouarfa v. Mayorkas

In August 2015, during his 2016 campaign, Trump proposed the mass deportation of illegal immigrants as a part of his immigration policy.[13] He proposed a "Deportation Force" to carry out this plan, modeled after the 1950s-era "Operation Wetback" program during the Dwight Eisenhower administration that ended following a congressional investigation.[14] He returned to this idea during his 2024 presidential campaign, and blurred the distinction between legal and illegal immigrants, and has promised to deport both.[15] To achieve the goal of deporting millions per year, Trump stated his intent to expand deportations without due process, which would be accomplished by the expedited removal authorities of 8 U.S. Code § 1225; invoking the Alien Enemies Act within the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798; and invoking the Insurrection Act of 1807 to allow the military to apprehend migrants and thus bypass the Posse Comitatus Act.[16]

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids would be expanded to include workplace raids and sweeps in public places. Following arrest, Stephen Miller has stated that illegal immigrants would be taken to "large-scale staging grounds near the border, most likely in Texas", to be held in internment camps prior to deportation. Trump told a rally audience in September 2024 that the deportation effort "will be a bloody story."[17][18]

Cases

[edit]

Rasha Alawieh

[edit]
This section is an excerpt from Deportation of Rasha Alawieh § 2025 denial of entry.[edit]

Alawieh visited Lebanon in February 2025 to see relatives.[19] According to the Department of Homeland Security while in Lebanon, she attended the funeral of Hassan Nasrallah, the former leader of Hezbollah.[20] According to a transcript of her airport re-entry interview, this was because of Nasrallah's religious position in the Shia community, and not due to support of his politics.[21] On March 17, Department of Defense authorities responded alleging that Alawieh had been denied re-entry after they found "sympathetic photos and videos" of Nasrallah, Ali Khamenei, and Hezbollah militants "in her cell phone's deleted items folder".[21]

On March 14, 2025, Alawieh returned to the U.S. on a flight landing at Logan International Airport in Boston. She was detained at the airport.[21] That same day, her cousin, Yara Chehab, filed a petition alleging that Customs and Border Protection (CBP) was unlawfully detaining Dr. Alawieh "without any justification and without permitting them access to their counsel" for at least 36 hours after traveling to Lebanon to see relatives.[19] That evening, U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin issued orders barring Alawieh's removal from Massachusetts without 48 hours notice to the court and scheduling for her to be brought to a hearing on March 17.[22]

In violation of this order, it was confirmed by Alawieh's attorney that she was sent on a flight to Paris and was back in Lebanon on March 16.[23] A lawyer with the firm working for Chehab confirmed that she went to the airport on March 15 and showed a CBP officer a copy of the order before Alawieh's flight departed, and this was corroborated by a CBP declaration on March 17.[20] Sorokin filed a second order that morning[24] stating there was reason to believe CBP had willfully disobeyed his previous order and directed the government to provide a response ahead of the scheduled hearing.[25]

Yunseo Chung

[edit]

Chung is a Columbia University student who came to the United States from South Korea at age 7 and is a lawful permanent resident with a "green card". On March 5, she was among a group of protesters arrested during a sit-in at Barnard College to express solidarity with protesting students who had been expelled. On March 10, federal law enforcement told her lawyer that her permanent resident status was being revoked. Agents searched for Chung at her dorm and her parents' home, though she was not there. Chung's lawyer filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the District Court for the Southern District of New York, and the case was assigned to judge Naomi Reice Buchwald, who ruled that Chung could not be detained for the time being.[26][27][28]

Federal agents had searched for Chung at various Columbia residences pursuant to a federal criminal warrant for harboring out-of-status noncitizens. The use of that warrant indicates that the government was likely pursuing a criminal case against Columbia wider than an immigration action against a single person.[29]

Alireza Doroudi

[edit]

Alireza Doroudi, a University of Alabama doctoral student from Iran, was arrested by ICE on March 25. Doroudi was studying mechanical engineering on a F-1 visa. Doroudi's lawyer stated that he had not been charged with any crime and had not participated in anti-government protests. The University of Alabama chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine also denied that he had been involved in any protests with their organization. DHS claimed that Doroudi "posed significant national security concerns" but did not provide any further information.[30]

Alfredo Juarez

[edit]

On March 27, ICE stopped Alfredo Juarez, a labor organizer on behalf of farm workers in Washington state. ICE agents stopped his car while he was driving his wife to work, broke his window, and dragged him out of the car. Juarez was taken to an ICE facility in Ferndale, and later to ICE's Northwest Processing Center in Tacoma. Juarez's lawyers and community members said that he was targeted for his activism.[31][32]

Mahmoud Khalil

[edit]
These paragraphs are an excerpt from Detention of Mahmoud Khalil.[edit]

Mahmoud Khalil, a student activist and lead negotiator for the encampment in the 2024 Columbia University pro-Palestinian campus occupations, was taken from his New York City apartment building by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on March 8, 2025.[33][34][35] The agents were acting on orders from the State Department to revoke Khalil's student visa. When the agents were informed that Khalil is a lawful permanent resident, they said this status would be revoked instead.[33] He was transported to LaSalle Detention Center in Jena, Louisiana.[36] On March 10, a U.S. district judge ordered that the Trump administration not deport Khalil pending judicial review of the arrest.

The detention is the first publicly known deportation effort related to pro-Palestine activism under President Donald Trump, who has threatened to punish students and others he says support Hamas or promote antisemitism.[33][37] Khalil's detention has received widespread backlash from lawyers,[38] members of the Democratic Party, and civil rights organizations, who say it is an attack on freedom of speech and the First Amendment.

There is no criminal charge against Khalil.[39] Instead, the government's argument depends on the Cold War–era Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, which provides that migrants in the U.S. may be removed if the Secretary of State believes their presence will have serious negative consequences for U.S. foreign policy.[40][41] Several journalists and human rights organizations have noted the connection between this law and McCarthyism.[42][43]

Leqaa Kordia

[edit]

On March 14, the Department of Homeland Security announced that it had arrested another Columbia student, Leqaa Kordia, for overstaying her visa. Kordia is a Palestinian from the West Bank and had been previously arrested for her involvement in a protest for Gaza. DHS called Kordia a Hamas supporter but did not provide any evidence to support this claim.[44]

Rümeysa Öztürk

[edit]
Main article: Detention of Rümeysa Öztürk

On March 26, 2025, Rümeysa Öztürk, a 30-year-old Turkish national, Fulbright scholar, and Tufts University graduate student in Child Study and Human Development with an F-1 visa, was surrounded on the street near her off-campus apartment by several masked individuals. They detained her, eventually showing their police badges, before taking her away in a vehicle with tinted windows.[45]

In March 2024, Öztürk had co-authored an op-ed in the Tufts student newspaper that called on Tufts president Sunil Kumar to enact resolutions passed by the Tufts Community Union Senate. The Senate resolutions demanded that the university "acknowledge the Palestinian genocide" and divest the school's holdings in companies doing business with Israel.[45][46][47] The op-ed is Öztürk's only known pro-Palestinian activism.[45] Her name and photo were subsequently posted on Canary Mission, a doxing website whose maintainers state they are documenting people who "promote hatred of the U.S.A., Israel and Jews" on college campuses.[8][48][49]

U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani ordered the government to provide a reason for Öztürk's detention and to provide 48 hours advance notice before removing her from Massachusetts. On March 26, Öztürk's lawyer filed an emergency motion requesting that the government produce her. However, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) stated on March 27 that Öztürk had been moved to a detention center in Basile, Louisiana, before the judge issued the order.[45][50] Judge Talwani gave the government until Friday, March 28 to explain why Öztürk was being detained.[45] According to her lawyer, Öztürk has not been charged with any crime.[48]

DHS also confirmed that Öztürk's student visa was terminated. A DHS spokesperson stated that Öztürk was "engaged in activities in support of Hamas", and that "Glorifying and supporting terrorists who kill Americans is grounds for visa issuance to be terminated."[45] DHS provided no examples of her support for Hamas or protest activities besides co-authorship of the op-ed that reinforced the student senate's vote calling for the university to sever ties with Israel.[45][51][52][28] Speaking to reporters about Öztürk's detention, Marco Rubio stated, "We gave you a visa to come and study and get a degree, not to become a social activist that tears up our university campus," and "We don’t want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country".[10][51][52]

On March 26, a protest in Somerville, Massachusetts of Öztürk's detention drew over a thousand participants.[53][54] Protests continued on the following days, with hundreds of demonstrators gathering outside Somerville City Hall on March 27 during a City Council meeting.[55]

On March 27, 34 Democratic members of Congress signed a letter to Marco Rubio, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, and ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons, demanding answers about the reasons for Öztürk's arrest. The lawmakers were led by Massachusetts representative Ayanna Pressley and senators Elizabeth Warren and Edward J. Markey.[56][57][58][59]

On March 28, Öztürk's legal team, now joined by the ACLU of Massachusetts and the CUNY School of Law nonprofit clinic CLEAR, filed an amended petition in the District of Massachusetts federal court. The amended habeas corpus petition argued that her constitutional rights to free speech and due process were violated, and called for her immediate release and return to Massachusetts.[60][61][62] On the same day, district court judge Denise J. Casper ordered that Öztürk not be removed from the US, pending judgment of jurisdiction, and that the Department of Justice (DOJ) respond to the amended petition by April 1.[63]

Ranjani Srinivasan

[edit]

Srinivasan, an Indian national and Fulbright scholar at Columbia, chose to self-deport after having her visa revoked. She had been previously detained during the Hamilton Hall protests, but all charges were dismissed. Her attorney said she was not a participant in the protests. Srinivasan was also accused without evidence of being a supporter of Hamas.[44][64]

Badar Khan Suri

[edit]

Suri, a Georgetown University researcher from India with a student visa, was detained by federal immigration authorities on March 17, 2025. The government revoked his visa, but did not charge him with a crime. He has no criminal record. Suri's lawyer argued in his petition to the court that Suri was targeted because of his US citizen wife's Palestinian heritage and because the government suspects that the couple opposes US foreign policy.[65]

Momodou Taal

[edit]

Taal is a Cornell University graduate student with dual United Kingdom and Gambian citizenship. On March 22, 2025, he was told to surrender himself at the ICE office in Syracuse, New York. Taal's lawyers, fearing that he would be targeted by the Trump administration, preemptively filed a lawsuit asking a New York federal judge to strike down Executive Orders 14188 and 14161 targeting student protestors. Taal's lawyers have said that he has been surveilled by law enforcement.[66]

Taal faced suspension for allegedly attending a protest at Statler Hotel to shut down a career fair where representatives from Boeing and L3Harris were recruiting. Instead of a suspension, which could have impacted his visa status, university officials chose to ban him from campus. [67]

On March 28, U.S. District Judge Elizabeth Coombe ruled against Taal, saying that his lawyers had neither established that she had jurisdiction to stop the deportation nor shown that there was any clear threat to his constitutional rights that would be addressed by the lawsuit.[68] [69]

On March 31, Taal announced that he had voluntarily left the United States citing fears for his personal safety. [70]
