President Donald Trump has removed Mahmoud Khalil, the Palestinian whose green card has been revoked. Khalil is no longer in the custody of the Southern District of New York, but instead, is now jailed in Louisiana, pending deportation from the United States. Khalil has been charged with sparking the pro-Hamas protests centered around Columbia University in New York City.
The FBI has sent out communications to U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, confirming it will soon be releasing January 6 documents. These will include details on the two “pipe bombs” placed around the U.S. Capitol the night before the protests, bombs targeting the Democratic and Republican party headquarters.
Robert Gouveia gets into both of these stories on this edition of Watching The Watchers. Also covered: The shredding of documents pertaining to the U.S. Agency for International Development, the uproar over lawyers from the firm Perkins Coie losing their security clearances, and the latest Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) updates.
