The new footage of ICE’s warrantless arrest shows the Palestinian student fully cooperated with federal agents and was not a flight risk, as the government continues to falsely claim.

[…]

The new footage, released after Khalil’s legal team subpoenaed Columbia University, clearly shows Khalil speaking on the phone before handing the phone to the agents seeking to detain him. Khalil was talking to his attorney, according to his legal team, which also said Khalil asked to see a warrant. At some points in the video, which doesn’t include audio, Khalil appears to be casually chatting with the agents, who seem to express no fear of him fleeing. Khalil has no handcuffs on for at least five minutes.

But he was a flight risk. Every flight risk spends five minutes talking without running. C'mon guys. He's dangerous because he's anti-genocide. C'mon.

If you need me to tell you that this is sarcasm, fuck you.
