Thank you, Scott. What did the judge say? Well, she said that the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, had the authority to order someone deported based on his determination that that person is a threat to justice. essentially the foreign policy interests of the United States, and that she had no authority to challenge that decision.

This is based on a rarely used law enacted during the 1950s Red Scare that allows the Secretary of State to order someone personally deported if that person's presence in the U.S. puts the nation's foreign policy goals at risk. The Trump administration has said that fighting anti-Semitism around the world is one of its goals.

So when agents from the Department of Homeland Security came to Rubio with a file on Mahmoud Khalil's activism, Rubio said he determined that his protests were anti-Semitic. And he said if he allowed Khalil to stay in the country, it would send a message that the U.S. tolerates anti-Semitism, which would then undermine its attempt to fight it everywhere else in the world.

And that is why he said Khalil had to be deported.

Well, that accusation was absurd. In court, they said that Khalil is not anti-Semitic, and they questioned what facts Rubio relied on to decide that his protests were anti-Semitic. But the judge said that the statute is very clear. As long as Rubio makes the determination himself, she cannot question it.

Well, those are some of the big questions in this case. The only thing the Secretary of State has to do to kick someone out of the country is to determine that their presence harmed U.S. foreign policy in some, you know, undefined way. This is one of Khalil's lawyers, Baher Asmi, after the ruling yesterday.

He said it's a very aggressive strategy that if left unchecked could become very dangerous. And that's why he and the rest of the legal team for Mahmoud Khalil are fighting so hard to appeal this decision. If they have to, they're going to go all the way up to the federal court system, through the federal court system, excuse me, to prevent Khalil's deportation.
