Work in Progress 🌻POST IMMEDIATELY & WIDELY!  12 noon-1 pm AAUP Emergency Rally  HANDS OFF MOMODOU TAAL @ Cornell’s Administration Bldg     -Day Hall Speakers: National Immigration Atty Eric Lee, AAUP Pres. Atty Risa Lieberwitz, Sandra Babcock of CU Law School From Eric Lee, Momodou Taal's attorney: Hello All:Today, just days after Momodou Taal sued Donald Trump challenging the constitutionality of the executive orders, plain clothed agents from an unidentified law enforcement agency made what we believe to be an attempt to detain and deport Momodou. They staked out his house and set up a presence at various points on on campus. One officer flashed a badge at one of Momodou's roommates and an employee at his residence. Other agents refused to identify themselves to additional eyewitnesses, who noticed police apparati in vehicles. This was not one or two agents, it was an operation.A half hour ago we filed for emergency relief with the federal judge assigned to our case demanding she order the government to cease its attempt to deport Momodou. This is a flagrant attack on his right to seek redress from the government through the courts. We submitted affidavits from myself and two of the witnesses establishing factually what happened today and pointed the judge's attention to Trump's violation of the order of the DC Judge in the Alien Sedition Act case and his demand that the judge be impeached. This is part of an unprecedented breakdown of separation of powers unfolding before our eyes. We will update you when we hear from the court. The government is testing the response of the campus community. Peaceful protests tomorrow would be entirely appropriate if you think they could be organized. Otherwise the federal agents will be back and they'll continue to threaten Momodou. At this point even an order from the district court may not even stop them. Please reach out with any further questions and thank you for all of your support.

Striking Distance IthacaCornell continues to use "temporary" suspensions to dish out harsh penalties against students who demand that the university address its complicity in the genocide against the Palestinian people.In my latest piece in @nationmag, I found an inconsistency between Cornell's official policy regarding how a process that resembles due process gets reconciled with the unilateral power of the director of Cornell's student disciplinary office. In a meeting with a student facing discipline, this individual seems to have misrepresented her power, overstating it.“It’s basically a prosecutor’s tactic: overcharge someone so they have a massive sentence ahead of them, so that they’ll plead down to something lesser, even if they were innocent to begin with,” wrote Cornell professor David Bateman in an email.Momodou Taal, a Black, Muslim, international student initially faced the threat of deportation for being present at the same action that these students are being suspended for. Following much public pressure locally & nationally, Cornell has decided not to de-enroll Taal, meaning that he will likely not have to leave the country. However, without evidence, he is still banned from campus and his ability to work as a graduate worker has been affected.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cornell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cornell</a> administrators say that the use of temporary suspensions are being used "where immediate action is necessary to protect the Complainant or the University community.”However, almost a month passed between the action in question and the disciplinary actions taken by the university, so the word "immediate" must have a very expansive definition for Cornell admins.Though it took the university a month to ban these students from campus, the disciplinary actions took place two days before <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CornellUniversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CornellUniversity</a> board of trustees met on campus. The chair of Cornell's board of trustees, Kraig Kayser, sits on the board of weapons company Moog Inc.According to The New Republic, "Last year, Kayser took home over $200,000 in combined cash and stock awards from Moog for his role on its board."<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ithaca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ithaca</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ithacany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ithacany</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Divestment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Divestment</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gaza</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Palestine</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FreedomOfExpression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreedomOfExpression</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PalestineException" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PalestineException</a><a href="https://www.thenation.com/?post_type=article&p=528681" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.thenation.com/?post_type=article&p=528681</a>
