Hi there,

We need independent media more than ever. When we cover war and peace, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers. When we cover the climate catastrophe, we’re not brought to you by the oil, gas and coal companies. When we cover inequality, we’re not brought to you by the banks and other financial institutions. We’re brought to you by you, the listener, the reader and the viewer. If you want Democracy Now! to keep bringing you the stories that matter most, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

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

HeadlineMar 17, 2025

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.
