Donald the "strongman" is too weak to get the wrongfully deported safely returned? THIS is why we have been screaming about due process. Pam Bondi and Trump need to be held accountable for this. Tar and feather is too good for them.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Marco Rubio defends deporting Mahmoud Khalil by saying "they" did bad things: "These guys take over entire buildings. They vandalize colleges. They shut down colleges.” Rubio is point blank saying you don't need to do anything wrong personally-simply being associated with a cause is enough

If a university spokesperson was doing this it would be national news, and used as justification for the federal government to defund the university. The truth is that antisemitism is just one of the excuses they are using to justify destroying independent institutions.
