The Trump administration can continue to hold anti-Israel activist Mahmoud Khalil at the Louisiana detention facility where he’s been locked up since March, a federal judge ruled Friday.   Judge Michael Farbiarz had issued a preliminary injunction earlier this week barring the Trump administration from deporting the ex-Columbia University student and ordering his release.   On Friday, however, the New Jersey judge determined that federal authorities can continue to hold Khalil on a separate alleged immigration violation discovered after his initial arrest.
