Mahmoud Khalil to Appeal US Deportation Case to Supreme Court Mahmoud Khalil's case has been a long standing example of how the Trump administration uses immigration enforcement as a tool to silence critics and stifle free speech.
Last week, Khalil announced that he would be taking his case to the Supreme Court after a federal appeals court declined to rehear his challenge to his immigration detention.
Khalil's situation is particularly egregious because it highlights the Trump administration's willingness to exploit the immigration system for political purposes.
