Trump Administration Cracks Down on Foreign Students Protesting Gaza War With Police Actions and Deportations

The Trump administration has implemented a crackdown on foreign university students in the United States who have protested against Israel's actions in Gaza. These protests, which express opposition to what some describe as a genocide in Gaza, have been met with police interventions, disciplinary actions, and political threats. The administration has also accused universities of failing to adequately address antisemitism during campus protests. Additionally, protesters supporting Palestine, particularly immigrants, have faced arrests, deportations, and border delays. Concerns were raised within the Justice Department regarding orders to investigate protesters at Columbia University, highlighting the government's intensified scrutiny of these demonstrations.
