«C’est la première arrestation et il y en aura beaucoup d’autres», a menacé Donald Trump sur son réseau Truth Social.
The arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, a prominent pro-Palestinian figure and recent graduate of Columbia University, sparked outrage among academics and human rights advocates. Khalil was arrested by federal immigration authorities and accused of pro-terrorist, antisemitic, and anti-American activities. Donald Trump vowed to find, arrest, and expel other "terrorist sympathizers." Over a thousand protestors gathered in Manhattan to denounce Columbia University and the authorities. Supporters fear Khalil's arrest could threaten the status of other immigrants and international students. Columbia University has already faced consequences, including the loss of $400 million in subsidies due to alleged inaction against antisemitism. Students now fear coming to campus.
