This has absolutely started happening, albeit not yet on a large-scale, systematic basis. Mahmoud Khalil [0] resided in the US legally when he was detained with the intention to deport.

Khalil also gave material support to terrorists which is explicitly called out as a no-no on your residency paperwork.

That would be a crime. Khalil was not charged with any crime. The only conceivable reason to not charge him at this point, is because there is no evidence of him committing a crime.

The admin doesn't have to charge him, they can just revoke his visa and deport him.

He passed out written Hezbollah materials. Like with their name, flag and logo on it.

He shouldn't go to jail, but he is no longer welcome in this country.

		That's not providing material support. It's just speech.
