Judges have now ruled that suspected "expected beliefs" that are "otherwise lawful" is grounds for deportation, if those suspected thoughts are "antisemitic" (read- supportive of peace in Palestine).

They are literally arresting and deporting people for suspected thoughts.

Student visas are being denied based on social media posts.

This is fascism.

Just for context, that judge is an immigration judge, ie a Department of State employee. Immigration judges are not part of the judicial branch (despite the job title) and can't make precedent or interpret law. They are basically a rubber stamp for whatever policy the Secretary of State is pushing.
