The Trump administration and all patriotic Americans won a big victory on Friday when a judge ruled that pro-Hamas agitator Mahmoud Khalil, who has become the latest hater of America to become a darling of the left, can lawfully be deported.
It was a classic case of the leftist media giving the public a false impression, and of a judge, along with that same media, once again underestimating the Trump administration. The establishment media has been hysterically insisting for weeks now that Khalil was in danger in being deported solely because he expressed views that Trump and his administration disliked. Leftist propagandists — that is, the New York Times, CNN, the , and the rest — have been claiming that Khalil is the victim of a dictator-in-the-making who wants to destroy the freedom of speech.
And so on Tuesday, Judge Jamee E. Comans, a Louisiana immigration judge, peremptorily gave the federal government exactly 24 hours to provide her with its evidence against Khalil. If she deemed this evidence to be insufficient, she said, “then I am going to terminate the case on Friday.” Marc Van Der Hout, one of Khalil’s large army of attorneys, claimed that « the government has not produced a single shred of evidence to date to support any of its allegations or charges in this case including its outrageous position that Mahmoud’s mere presence and activities in this country have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences.”
After seeing the evidence that the government provided, however, on Friday Comans did not terminate the case against Khalil. Instead, she ruled that Khalil could indeed be deported. The Associated Press reported that Comans “said at the conclusion of a hearing in Jena that the government’s contention that Khalil’s presence in the United States posed ‘potentially serious foreign policy consequences’ was enough to satisfy requirements for his deportation.
