Cornell student who praised Oct. 7 told to surrender to US immigration authorities

A pro-Palestinian activist at Cornell University, Momodou Taal, has been ordered to report to immigration authorities, indicating the Trump administration's intention to deport him. Taal had preemptively sued to block any deportation efforts, claiming that the administration was penalizing protected speech. His lawyers have now filed for a restraining order against the government. Taal's supporters have demonstrated on campus after observing law enforcement outside his home. The pro-Israel group Betar US has advocated for his deportation and claims that two other pro-Palestinian activists may also be on the deportation list.
