It's not "don't leave", but "don't put yourself in a situation there you have to reenter". It's in neither party's interest to be in that situation.

What happens if and when ICE starts rounding visa holders up to deport? No snark intended, this is a genuine question based on all available evidence. I don’t endorse such action at all, but we are existing in exceptional times and the discussion is important. “If you stay, what are you getting yourself into?” is a serious question to ask and to manage the risk around.

> What happens if and when ICE starts rounding visa holders up to deport?

Read the news, it's already happening. One video I saw showed a woman (a PhD student in a legal visa) being surrounded by plainclothes officers with neck gaiters over their faces and they took her away in an unmarked car. Her family hired a lawyer who still hasn't contacted her though they claim she's in a specific facility in Mississippi. Her crime? Speaking out against Israel. If the first amendment is dead, hopefully the second can save us.

At the moment it looks like they are snatching people off the street, they're already rounding up people to deport, no "your visa has been cancelled, you have 30 days to leave" more people in masks snatching you off the street

All somebody needs to do in this climate is call ICE, say their coworker sympathizes with Hamas. They overheard them at work.

Watch how fast the law doesn’t protect them

Unless they work for Elon
