Rumeysa Ozturk's federal case transferred to Vermont

Tuft case moved to Vt.
  • A federal judge in Boston ordered federal immigration authorities to transfer Tufts international student Rumeysa Ozturk's lawsuit over her detainment to Vermont.

Catch up quick: Ozturk, who was arrested in broad daylight by ICE agents in Somerville, had her student visa revoked after a pro-Israeli group, Canary Mission, doxxed her over a pro-Palestinian op-ed in Tufts' student newspaper'

  • One of the most shocking elements of Ozturk's detainment — and a legal wrinkle — is that her whereabouts were unknown for close to a day as ICE agents shuttled her from Massachusetts to Vermont to Louisiana, where she currently sits in a detention center.
  • Ozturk's attorneys accused the Trump administration of "forum shopping," keeping her whereabouts unknown until they could get her to a jurisdiction believed to be more likely to side with government attorneys.

Driving the news: Judge Denise Casper ruled that Ozturk's habeas corpus petition should be heard by the District of Vermont's federal court, not the District of Western Louisiana as Trump administration lawyers requested.

    Ukraine security

    Russian negotiator Kirill Dmitriev said Thursday that some type of security guarantees for Ukraine “may be acceptable” following high-level talks at the White House in an attempt to revive stalled peace negotiations.

    Dmitriev, the head of Russia’s sovereign wealth fund and a close adviser to President Vladimir Putin, traveled to Washington this week in the first high-level Russian visit to the United States since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

    Dmitriev held two days of talks with American envoy Steve Witkoff, who met with Putin in Moscow last month as part of President Donald Trump’s push for a ceasefire and peace deal between Russia and Ukraine.

    jewvish students' chain at columbia

    Here in New York, Jewish students chained themselves to Columbia University’s gates Wednesday to demand the school reveal the names of trustees and Columbia officials who collaborated with federal immigration authorities in the arrest last month of student protest leader Mahmoud Khalil.

    Carly: “We, as Jewish students, demand transparency in that process. … You know, as Jewish students and to the Jewish people at large, being political pawns in a game is not a new occurrence, and that’s something that we very much so are here to say, 'Hey, you cannot weaponize antisemitism to harm our friends and peers.'”

    Students continued their action into the early hours of this morning, even after Columbia security and NYPD arrived on the scene to cut the chains and forcibly remove protesters. We’ll hear more of their voices later in the broadcast.

    White House defends not including Russia, North Korea on tariffs

    trumpThe White House on Thursday defended its decision to not include Russia, North Korea, Cuba or Belarus in the latest round of tariffs, which targeted dozens of global trading partners that were labeled the “worst offenders” when it came to trade barriers.

    A White House official told The Hill in a statement that the four nations “are not subject to the Reciprocal Tariff Executive Order because they are already facing extremely high tariffs, and our previously imposed sanctions preclude any meaningful trade with these countries.”

    The official added that Trump has “recently threatened to impose strong sanctions on Russia” to further explain leaving out Moscow.

    Dow sheds 1,700 points. S&P 500 and Nasdaq have worst day since 2020 on tariff worries

    Stock MarketU.S. stock losses closed sharply lower, with the blue-chip Dow losing nearly 1,700 points and the broad S&P 500 tumbling about 275 points, after President Donald Trump unveiled his tariff plan late Wednesday.

    Trump announced sweeping tariffs of at least 10% on all countries, effective April 5, and even higher levies for some countries to start soon. Some of China's neighbors and biggest trading partners such as Bangladesh, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia were slapped with the highest tariffs. Some multinational companies have moved their supply chains to these countries as they looked to diversify away from China.
