Columbia student sues as Trump administration targets another permanent resident for deportation

The article discusses a lawsuit filed by a Columbia University student, who is a permanent resident, against the Trump administration's efforts to deport him. The student, identified as a DACA recipient, was detained by ICE despite having legal status in the U.S. This case is part of a broader pattern where the Trump administration has been targeting long-term residents for deportation, often those with minor infractions or no criminal record at all.

This case highlights the ongoing tension between immigration enforcement policies and the rights of immigrants with legal status in the U.S.
