Donald Trump announced plans to cancel student visas of "Hamas sympathizers" and deport non-citizen protesters supporting Palestine in the US. A White House fact sheet stated he would direct the Justice Department to "aggressively prosecute terroristic threats, arson, vandalism, and violence against American Jews." Trump declared, "We will find you, and we will deport you." He also called US college campuses "infested with radicalism." The move is expected to fuel political debate, with critics warning of potential threats to free speech and civil rights. Trump's order is set to take effect in 2025 if he wins re-election.
