Tom Homan, the Trump administration's border czar, suggested all green card holders could be subjected for deportation if they commit a crime. The official made the claim after the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, a high-profile leader of pro-Palestine protests at Columbia University.

Speaking to Fox Business, Homan defended the decision to apprehend Khali, saying "any resident alien who commits a crime is eligible for deportation." "Did he violate the terms of his visa? Did he violate the terms of his residency here, you know, committing crimes, attacking Israeli students, locking down buildings, destroying property? Absolutely," he added.
