Thursday's Fact Sheet related to Wednesday's Executive Order, Additional Measures to Combat Anti-Semitism, says (among other things):
- Immediate action will be taken by the Department of Justice to protect law and order, quell pro-Hamas vandalism and intimidation, and investigate and punish anti-Jewish racism in leftist, anti-American colleges and universities.
- The Order demands the removal of resident aliens who violate our laws.
Now, President Trump has promised that the Federal Government will: …
- Deport Hamas Sympathizers and Revoke Student Visas: "To all the resident aliens who joined in the pro-jihadist protests, we put you on notice: come 2025, we will find you, and we will deport you. I will also quickly cancel the student visas of all Hamas sympathizers on college campuses, which have been infested with radicalism like never before."
This suggests that aliens who commit crimes may be specially targeted for deportation because their behavior is "pro-Hamas" or "anti-Jewish." And it also suggests that aliens might be deported even if they don't commit crimes, but are merely "Hamas sympathizers" "who joined in the pro-jihadist protests."
