Trump order could see Pro-Hamas protesters on H1B visas deported
President Trump signed an executive order giving DHS the authority to deport foreign students who support terrorist groups such as Hamas.
I haven't seen any pro Hamas protestors. Anti-Israel and pro-Palestine all over the place, but no Hamas.
Even saying people are pro-palestine seems misleading usually. People are mostly just anti-genocide.
That's the straw man behind all of this - saying anything in support of the Palestinian people is "pro hamas", saying anything negative about Israel is "antisemitic". It deliberately conflates political groups with ethnic identities to dismiss the argument
If you aren’t vocally pro-Israel, you are pro-Hamas.

Sorry, those are blocked on my network.
And I'm sure it'll be used against anyone protesting Israel's genocide.
So the actual EO doesn't call out H1B at all, so I'm guessing this is sensationalized as H1B is the most "visible" visa in recent news.
The context for this is likely the Moroccan national who recently committed a terror attack in Israel. He had a green card and that was supposedly part of the decision to grant him entry as a tourist to Israel.
That having been said, this will likely result in some international students getting deported whether deserved or not. Semi-intended consequences is what I'd call them.
Both parties are the same!!?!?!?!ONE! Drool.
Sounds good to me man, Hamas are Islamofascist Terrorists
Issue us pro hamas also includes anti genocide in trumps eyes
