‘Does not have any authority whatsoever under any statute in the history of the universe’: Judge tears into Trump admin over ‘illegal’ mass firings

The Trump administration has “unconstitutionally silenced” people living in the United States from “speaking, hearing, or engaging with viewpoints critical of the U.S. government” through deportation and other means, says a new lawsuit from a Cornell University professor and two students, which points to the detainment and attempted deportation of a “pro-Palestinian” protester at Columbia University earlier this month as an example.

The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC), along with co-counsel, is suing President Donald Trump and the Department of Homeland Security on behalf of the Cornell professor and two graduate students at the New York college for what they say is a “campaign” being waged against free speech through executive orders (EOs) issued by Trump and carried out by his administration, “particularly as it targets international students and scholars who protest or express support for Palestinian rights,” according to a Sunday statement from ADC officials.
