"Imran Ahmed's biggest thorn in his side used to be Elon Musk, who made the hate speech researcher one of his earliest legal foes during his Twitter takeover. Now, it's the Trump administration, which planned to deport Ahmed, a legal permanent resident, just before Christmas. It would then ban him from returning to the United States, where he lives with his wife and young child, both US citizens."
"After suing US officials to block any attempted arrest or deportation, Ahmed was quickly granted a temporary restraining order on Christmas Day. Ahmed had successfully argued that he risked irreparable harm without the order, alleging that Trump officials continue "to abuse the immigration system to punish and punitively detain noncitizens for protected speech and silence viewpoints with which it disagrees" and confirming that his speech had been chilled."
US officials planned to deport Imran Ahmed, a legal permanent resident and CCDH founder, just before Christmas and ban him from returning to the United States. Ahmed lives in the US with his wife and young child, both US citizens. Ahmed sued officials to block arrest or deportation and obtained a temporary restraining order on Christmas Day after arguing he risked irreparable harm and that Trump officials abuse the immigration system to punish speech. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced visa bans on five individuals described as "radical activists" and leaders of "weaponized NGOs." Under Secretary Sarah Rogers identified the targets on X, including Thierry Breton, Clare Melford, and HateAid leaders.
