An hour after Mohsen Mahdawi’s arrest, an Israeli Columbia student messaged me. More followed. Though he led the encampment, they say he spent past months in dialogue with Jews & Israelis—even holding joint closed-door meetings with admins https://www.haaretz.com/us-news/2025-04-15/ty-article-magazine/.premium/jewish-israeli-peers-condemn-arrest-of-palestinian-columbia-student-over-activism/00000196-3885-dc0f-adb6-bdd5abb80000?gift=25b4ef4504c949d3ac1ee724de6a1364

This is insane: a lawyer was detained at the airport for REPRESENTING pro Palestinian protesters. With the Supreme Court today granting Trump and Rubio authority to deport anyone under a dubious law, the police state is officially here. https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/wayne/2025/04/07/lawyer-for-u-m-protester-held-at-airport-refused-to-give-feds-his-phone/82978891007/?taid=67f45ffd2263bc00012ffe85&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter

The people who have been thinking of the U.S. place in the world, and the world itself, from Russia to Africa to the future of the planet. Cut by a bunch of brutes. The Trump admin with Rubio and Musk is truly nihilistic--tomorrow doesn't matter.

My friend, a South Sudanese refugee, fled violence with his family. Denying him safety is like turning away the St. Louis in 1939. Secretary Rubio is a modern day Breckinridge Long—calling to halt immigration and refuge despite clear persecution. He'll he remembered as such.
