Marco Rubio Debates CBS Host Over Deportation of Individuals Expressing Support for Hamas

MSNBC's Sam Stein criticized conservatives for not defending Mahmoud Khalil, who faces deportation for pro-Hamas protests at Columbia University, calling the situation "chilling" and an infringement on free speech.
Stein highlighted that deportation actions against Khalil have ignited backlash from liberals and civil libertarians, as well as condemnation from some neoconservatives.

Free speech, as emphasized by Stein, is a fundamental right that should be upheld, regardless of differing views on Khalil's political stance against Israel.
