Free Speech Under Attack: Government Censorship and Corporate Power Grab
Mahmoud Khalil, a pro-Palestinian activist and lawful permanent resident, was abducted by DHS agents, held incommunicado in Louisiana, and faces deportation based solely on his political speech. The Trump administration justifies this action, claiming the right to circumvent due process for those deemed critical of the administration. This action, deemed unconstitutional, represents a broader attack on free speech, mirroring similar efforts against other protesters and critics. The successful prosecution of Khalil would set a dangerous precedent, severely restricting free speech and paving the way for a more authoritarian America.
