A trial concluded in Boston concerning the Trump administration's detention of foreign scholars for pro-Palestinian speech revealed unprecedented actions by immigration officials. The case, brought by the AAUP and others, challenged the administration's deportation of non-citizens based on constitutionally protected speech, alleging an "ideological deportation" policy. While some detained scholars were released, others fled or remain in hiding. The judge's ruling, expected in weeks, is likely to be appealed.
