Free Speech and the Case of Mahmoud Khalil

In this special episode of Sacrilegious Discourse, Husband and Wife dive into the troubling case of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian permanent U.S. resident and Columbia University student, who was detained by ICE under dubious allegations of terrorism due to his pro-Palestinian activism. With their signature blend of humor and critical analysis, they explore the implications of this case on free speech and dissent in America.

Join them as they discuss the historical context of governmental crackdowns on dissent, from McCarthyism to post-9/11 policies, and how Khalil's situation reflects a growing trend of silencing voices that challenge the status quo. They also touch on the broader implications for activists and secular groups, questioning whether criticizing religious influence in government could be framed as extremism.

💬 What are your thoughts on free speech and the treatment of activists in the current political climate? Share your opinions in the comments or on social media!

🎧 Tune in for a passionate and thought-provoking discussion that highlights the importance of standing up for rights and supporting independent journalism in the face of governmental overreach!
