🚨 BREAKING: ICE secretly deported Luis Leon, an 82-year-old torture survivor and U.S. legal resident of nearly 40 years, after he walked into an immigration office to replace a lost green card. Instead of processing the request, ICE handcuffed him, detained his wife for 10

.@ZohranKMamdani decisively won the Democratic nomination. He is a loving son and husband, and community organizer who puts the people first. The vile, Islamophobic attacks on him are disgusting and the normalization of anti-Muslim hate is dangerous.

We’re abducting students for speaking out against this. Unreal.

Last night in Gaza, we operated on a 15 year old girl who was riding her bike when she was shredded by an Apache helicopter. She will be lucky if she keeps 2 of her limbs after 12 hours of collective surgery

Rumeysa was kidnapped in plain sight & sent to Louisiana to be locked in the same detention center Mahmoud Khalil was sent to. She's a peaceful protestor, grad student, & my constituent who has a right to free speech & due process. Now she's a political prisoner. Free her now.

Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk was detained by ICE. A video shared with GBH News shows a man in a hoodie approach her, then grab her wrists. Ozturk screams, then asks “Can I call the police?” before being told “We’re the police.” https://t.co/6dwvEmqjVr @sweetadelinevt @GBHNews

Last week, I was expelled from @Columbia for protesting the U.S.-backed genocide in Gaza. As president of @SW_Columbia , Columbia’s student workers union, I was also fired from my job. The Trump administration is pushing their narrative. Here’s the real story. 🧵

I abhor many of the opinions and policies that Mahmoud Khalil holds and supports, and have made my criticism of the antisemitic actions at Columbia loudly known. Mr. Khalil is also legal permanent resident here, and his wife, who is 8-months pregnant, is an American citizen.

The lawyer for Mahmoud Khalil, at today's hearing, said that she has been unable to speak to her client once since his detention. Does any of this sound like the America you were taught about growing up? A legal permanent resident kept incommunicado with no charges specifically

Could go further - since at least post-George Floyd the Trump admin has been interested in the limits of its power to criminalize protest. Detaining pro-Palestinian protestors is one step they can get away with without Democrats or many in media pushing back. It won’t end there.

The Trump administration position is clear: The First Amendment does not apply to criticizing Israel or opposing Israel’s policies. The administration is starting to carry out a policy of criminalizing this speech.

Nothing justifies disappearing a person. History is riddled with those who thought their proximity to power protected them until it didn’t. Those justifying Khalil’s disappearance are traitors to our country. I don’t say this lightly, and I mean it sincerely.

As of 8:45 p.m., a full 24 hours after he was arrested by ICE inside his university-owned apartment, Khalil's attorney still does not know where he is being detained. Columbia has not yet commented on the arrest.

Trump is holding all the nation’s hospitals and vital services hostage to seize power from Congress and hand it over to billionaires. We must state the truth: this is a constitutional crisis. It’s a massive, illegal power grab that the House and Senate have a sworn duty to stop.
