YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“The list is growing, unfortunately, because it affects what we consider to be something very innately American… Our freedom of speech and the government weaponizing the immigration process to clamp down on dissent. And make no mistake — we're not talking about the preexisting exceptions to free speech where inciting hatred, etc. — we are talking about constitutionally protected political speech.”

Mehdi Hasan speaks with Hassan Ahmad — lawyer of detained Georgetown scholar, Badar Khan Suri — about the growing list of legal immigrants targeted by the Trump administration for expressing support for Palestine, how arrests were made due to “guilt by association,” and how these attacks on the First Amendment should concern all Americans.
