the treatment that foreign students at Columbia University are receiving. If you're a Jewish student from Canada or Germany or the UK and you feel threatened in going to class, you know, that's going to have foreign policy implications because the way we treat foreign nationals in the United States is more or less the way we expect other people to treat us.

And so I've actually taken a look at what purports to be the notice to appear in his case. And it both says that he was a student and that he is a lawful permanent resident. So he probably adjusted his status. That's perfectly legal. You can go from being a tourist to being a green card holder or a student. That part is legal.

But to your point, and I have a feeling I know where you're going with this, the law is clear that the Secretary of State cannot make this determination based upon statements, beliefs, or associations or activities and associations in the United States that are lawful in the United States, which means that Marco Rubio seems to think that Mr. Khalil has done something that would be unlawful in this country.

Now, and this is an important caveat that I have to add. Even if Khalil's activities were lawful and even if Rubio has made the determination that they were, if his presence implicates a compelling or compromises a compelling foreign policy issue, then he could still go ahead, Rubio could still go ahead and move to deport Khalil. So, that letter is going to be absolutely crucial.
