‘Meditation Green Card Holder’: Immigration Officer issues new warnings to American citizens with criminal history

Customs and Border Security issued a fresh warning to the green card holders, reminding them that they were not above the law. If the authorities fit their legal citizenship if they fit their criminal records. CBP posted on X, “Under our nation’s laws, our government has the right to cancel your green card. The post said, “By having a criminal history you do not become a permanent law permanent resident. Keeping a green card is a privilege, not a right.” “In addition to the proceedings of immigration removal, the legitimate permanent residents present at the American port of admission with previous criminal convicts may be subject to compulsory custody.”This is not the first time that the Donald Trump administration has warned the green card holders. Amid heavy rebuke on illegal migrants across the country, State Secretary Marco Rubio said that Green card holders could also be prosecuted and deported. The CBP repeats that a green card is not guaranteed to live in the US, it is not an empty threat because the administration has detained and prosecuted many green card holders. And the cases that attracted the attention of the entire country, as Mahmud Khalil was included for political reasons, whose exile was stopped by the court, while the administration was ready to exist and an immigration judge ruled that they could be deported. Married to a Palestinian and an American, Khalil was arrested despite being a legal American citizen on the charge of Hamas activism at Columbia University-although he never had any criminal charge. According to estimates from the office of Homeland Security Statistics, there were 12.8 million legitimate permanent residents, or green card holders living in the US till January 1, 2024.
