Far-Right Group Betar Says It Handed Trump Admin "Thousands of Names" of Deportation Targets
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The far-right, pro-Israeli group Betar has taken credit for Mahmoud
Khalil's arrest and boasts it has a "deportation list" containing
"thousands of names" that it sent to the Trump administration.

Meanwhile, Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania has suspended one student
as it issued sanctions earlier this month for 15 pro-Palestinian student
protesters. Swarthmore announced the penalties days after Trump
threatened to rescind federal funding for schools that allow so-called
illegal protests.
