Appeals court reverses decision that freed pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil
« on: January 15, 2026, 10:42:57 am »
How many bites at the apple does this jerk get?

A federal appeals panel on Thursday reversed a lower court decision that released former Columbia University graduate student Mahmoud Khalil from an immigration jail, bringing the government one step closer to detaining and ultimately deporting the Palestinian activist.

A three-judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia instructed the lower court to dismiss Khalil’s habeas petition, a court filing that secured his release. The panel ruled that the federal district court in New Jersey did not have jurisdiction over the matter because immigration challenges are handled differently under the law.

In a 2-1 decision, the panel ruled that federal immigration laws require deportation challenges to be made by filing a petition for review of a final order of removal with a federal appeals court — not a lower-level district court.

This is why criminal illegal aliens need to be removed as quickly as possible - before they have anchor babies, before they marry an American citizen, and before they become a cause celebre for liberal lawyers.

The Trump administration scored a major win Thursday in its fight to deport anti-Israel activist and former Columbia graduate student Mahmoud Khalil when a federal appeals court overturned a decision freeing him from custody – a ruling that could lead to a showdown at the US Supreme Court.

A split three-judge panel on the Philadelphia-based Third Circuit Court of Appeals found Newark federal Judge Michael Farbiarz didn’t have the authority to order Khalil’s release from a Louisiana detention facility this past June.

Instead, the case should have been allowed to work its way through the immigration court system.
