Mohsen Mahdawi, released from Ice custody, graduates from Columbia

Mahdawi graduared from Columbia

Columbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi, released just over two weeks ago from federal detention, crossed the graduation stage on Monday to cheers from his fellow graduates.

The Palestinian activist was arrested by immigration authorities in Colchester, Vermont, while attending a naturalization interview. He was detained and ordered to be deported by the Trump administration on 14 April despite not being charged with a crime.

Several students cheered for Mahdawi, 34, who was draped in a keffiyeh as he walked across the stage. He blew a kiss and bowed, one video showed. Then he joined a vigil just outside Columbia’s gates, raising a photograph of his classmate Mahmoud Khalil, who remains in federal custody.

“It’s very mixed emotions,” Mahdawi told the Associated Press. “The Trump administration wanted to rob me of this opportunity. They wanted me to be in a prison, in prison clothes, to not have education and to not have joy or celebration.”

At least 50 Venezuelans sent to El Salvador prison entered US legally, report finds – as it happened

Deported Venezuelans came to US legallyAt least 50 Venezuelan men sent by the Trump administration to a prison in El Salvador had entered the United States legally, according to a review by the Cato Institute, a libertarian thinktank.

The report, published today, analyzed available immigration data for only a portion of the men who were deported, and focuses on the cases where records could be found.

“The government calls them all ‘illegal aliens.’ But of the 90 cases where the method of crossing is known, 50 men report that they came legally to the United States, with advanced US government permission, at an official border crossing point,” Cato said in its report.

This number aligns with broader trends among Venezuelan migrants, many of whom entered the country either as refugees or through a Biden-era parole program that granted two-year work permits to those with US-based sponsors.

Supreme Court allows Trump to revoke protected status for thousands of Venezuelans

Scotus allows deportation of Venrzurelans

The Supreme Court gave the Trump administration the green light Monday to revoke special legal protections for thousands of Venezuelan immigrants, which could pave the way for at least some of them to be deported.

The high court granted an emergency application filed by the administration, meaning officials can move forward with reversing a decision made at the tail end of the Biden administration to extend protections for almost 350,000 Venezuelans under the federal Temporary Protected Status program.

A modern golem: The ‘antisemitism’ charge has run amok

golemAccording to Jewish folklore, in the late 16th-century the Czech city of Prague was threatened with antisemitic attacks. In response, Chief Rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel created an early Jewish superhero in the attic of what has become known as the Old-New Synagogue.

The story goes that the rabbi received a divine order in a dream: “You shall create [a] Golem from clay and may the malicious anti-Semitic mob be destroyed.” So he fashioned a powerful giant creature called a golem “out of clay from the banks of the Vltava River and brought it to life through rituals and incantations,” per Kayla Green’s “The Golem in the Attic.”

At first, the Golem defended the ghetto’s Jews, but, through the rabbi’s oversight, the powerful creature ran amok and had to be destroyed.

Responding to the horrific Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attacks on Israel, large Jewish organizations like the Anti-Defamation League and the Zionist Organization of America have unintentionally created a similar monster — which has similarly run amok.

Donald Trump slams Supreme Court ruling blocking deportation without a court hearing

SCOTUS rules on due processPresident Donald Trump said the Supreme Court's decision limiting his ability to deport immigrants without a court hearing represents "a bad and dangerous day for America."

In a post on his Truth Social site on May 16, Trump slammed the high court's ruling blocking his administration from using a 1798 wartime law to deport a group of Venezuelan migrants. The migrants argued who said they had not been given enough of a chance to contest their removal.

The president invoked the Alien Enemies Act in March when he designated a Venezuelan gang known as Tren de Aragua as a "foreign terrorist organization." Alleged gang members have since been deported to a mega-prison in El Salvador.

"The result of this decision will let more CRIMINALS pour into our Country, doing great harm to our cherished American public," Trump said in his post. "The Supreme Court of the United States is not allowing me to do what I was elected to do."

Amnesty International: Marking the 77th anniversary of Nakba

NakbaThe 15th of May marks the forced expulsion and displacement of 700,000 thousand Palestinians during the conflict that created the State of Israel in 1948. Since then, al Nakba (The Catastrophe), as it is known in Arabic, has been engraved in Palestinian collective consciousness as a story of relentless dispossession.

The crimes that were committed in 1948 draw haunting parallels to the action that Israeli forces have been committing in Palestine in since October 7, 2023. This year on the 77th anniversary of al Nakba we stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people.

During the 1948 Nakba, more than 530 towns and villages were destroyed with over 700,000 Palestinians displaced from their homes, villages and cities. Their homes have either been settled and renamed, or left in ruins. They’ve never received compensation for their losses, and have been denied the right to return.

Unfortunately, the atrocities of al Nakba weren’t isolated. Over the decades, Palestinian refugees have faced multiple waves of displacement, with some losing their homes several times. In 1967, some 300,000 Palestinians were displaced following Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian Territories – the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip. Since then, tens of thousands of others in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT) have been made homeless or forcibly displaced again because of Israel’s aggressive land-grabbing and illegal settlement policies, home demolitions and forced evictions.

Tulsi Gabbard Fires Officials After Assessment Finds Trump's Tren De Aragua Claims False

Tulsi GabbardNational Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard fired two senior officials at the National Intelligence Council after it released a report concluding the Venezuelan government is unlikely to be directing the activities of Tren de Aragua, in sharp contrast to President Donald Trump’s countless claims to the contrary.

Trump has repeatedly asserted, while offering no evidence, that Venezuela is somehow guiding the actions of the street gang. Trump also invoked Tren de Aragua to justify invoking the Alien Enemies Act shortly after taking office, leaning on the 1798 law to deport people without due process.

Michael Collins, the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council, and deputy Maria Langan-Riekhof were fired Tuesday, a source told CNN. It’s unclear what role, if any, Collins and Langan-Riekhof played in producing the analysis.

The firings come a week after an intelligence assessment produced by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence found Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro’s government probably isn’t involved in Tren de Aragua’s operations in the U.S.

The existence of that partially declassified assessment was first reported by The Washington Post.
