US judge orders release of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil

This is good news for Mahmoud Khalil, for the activists who have championed his release, and for the rule of law. We must keep the pressure on the Trump administration to make sure they comply with the judge's order. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/20/nyregion/mahmoud-khalil-release-order.html

I am glad that Mahmoud Khalil will be released and finally meet his son, but he never should have been taken in the first place. Our Constitution guarantees the right to due process to everyone. We will continue fighting to defend that right. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/20/nyregion/mahmoud-khalil-release-order.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

Mahmoud Khalil's attorneys will join me at 9 p.m. ET tonight. www.cnn.com/2025/06/20/us/mahmoud-khalil-ordered-released-by-judge
