William Lindsey :toad:<p>As Evan Hurst reports, College Democrats at University of Alabama are mincing no words as they express their outrage about the university's invitation of Trump to give this year's commencement address.

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>The Trump regime has expanded its blatantly unconstitutional college campus kidnapping spree beyond the Ivies; this time ICE snatched University of Alabama doctoral student Alireza Doroudi at his off campus home at 5AM on Tuesday. The DHS has refused to provide clarification for why Doroudi, a mechanical engineering student from Iran who is legally studying in the United States, was detained; beyond some vague nonsense about "national security." </p><p><a href="https://archive.is/m42G7" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">archive.is/m42G7</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>ICE detains University of Alabama doctoral student as government's college crackdown continues</p><p>"David Rozas, an attorney representing Doroudi, said in a statement Saturday that they are "confused" about why Doroudi was detained. Doroudi has maintained lawful status while studying at the university, Rozas said.</p><p>"We have not been made aware of any allegations of misconduct against my client," Rozas said. "We do not believe he is suspected to have committed any crimes nor participated in any political activities whatsoever."</p><p>He said Doroudi has a pending EB-2 application, a pathway to a green card for immigrants who hold an advanced degree or have "exceptional ability."</p><p>A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said in an emailed statement: "ICE HSI made this arrest in accordance with the State Department’s revocation of Doroudi’s student visa. This individual posed significant national security concerns."</p><p>Given the DHS's refusal to provide adequate details, many mainstream news outlets are reporting that it's unclear if this particular visa revocation and ICE kidnapping is part of Trump's larger fascist war on college campus protestors and people who write op-eds criticizing Israel's genocide in Gaza. Given the methods the regime used to target Doroudi and fact that ICE has already shipped him to the notorious detention center in Louisiana that it shipped most of the other students to however, I think that position is a little too credulous. At a minimum, sources at the University of Alabama have indicated that the community there regards this as part of Trump's racist repression of international students.</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AlirezaDoroudi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AlirezaDoroudi</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/UniversityOfAlabama" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UniversityOfAlabama</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ICE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICE</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DHS</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Kidnapping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kidnapping</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/CivilRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CivilRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Racism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteSupremacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteSupremacy</span></a></p>
