On Friday’s segment of Jesse Watters Primetime on FNC, Tom Homan, who serves as the border czar under President Trump, commented on the protests at Columbia University and the law enforcement actions involving Mahmoud Khalil, a pro-Hamas activist and protest organizer in the US who holds a student visa.
Homan stated, “They may have gotten away with that in the Biden administration,” adding, “They’re not going to get away with it under the Trump administration. When you come to this country, either on a visa or you become a resident alien, that’s a privilege. But with that privilege comes certain rules. You can’t violate law. You can’t go and call for the annihilation of Israel and take over a college campus and take over a college building and destroy government property. You can’t hand out literature supporting a terrorist organization. So the Trump administration made it clear, President Trump has made it clear, we’re not going to allow this under this administration. You’re going to be held accountable.”
He further explained, “So again, I’ll say this, his attorney ought to read the law. The Secretary of State has a lot of discretion when it comes to someone who says and does things that is in direct conflict with our foreign policy and supporting a terrorist organization. So he was arrested for the right reason, and God help us, in the very near future, we get to the court proceeding, he’ll be gon, but he is the first of many, Brian. This is going to continue. We’re going to set a tone in this country that it’s a privilege to be here and you can’t sympathize with terrorists while being on a visa.”
