IN THE NEWS: SECOND ANTI-ISRAEL PROTESTER ARRESTED

A second Columbia University protester who took part in anti-Israel demonstrations on campus was nabbed by Homeland Security agents Thursday, sources said.  Leqaa Kordia, a Palestinian who hails from the West Bank, was first arrested in April 2024 for taking part in one of the protests on Columbia’s campus while overstaying her twice-canceled student visa. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem emphasized that it’s “a privilege to be granted a visa to live and study in the United States of America” in a statement shared with The Post Friday.
