Mahmoud Khalil, a prominent figure in the pro-Palestinian protests at Columbia University, joined FOX 5’s Dan Bowens to discuss his federal lawsuit against Trump administration officials, the Heritage Foundation and pro-Israel advocacy groups. Khalil accuses them of conspiring to violate his constitutional rights and silence his activism. He also discussed his detention, the conditions he says he experienced in Louisiana and the White House’s allegations that his immigration status was obtained through fraud, which he denies.
