Who Are the Shadowy Contractors That Are Training ICEโ€™s Attack Teams? ICE is spending big on firearms, munitions, and weapons training firms to further militarize its forces.

The agency is now spending more than ever before on munitions and military equipment to outfit its officers.

Defend Momodou Taal
Federal agents are currently on the campus of Cornell University in Ithaca, NY attempting to detain UE Local 300-Cornell Graduate Students United member Momodou Taal. Taal is an international graduate worker and visa holder who was terminated from his employment and threatened with deportation by Cornell administrators last September without just cause.

Defend Momodou Taal Federal agents are currently on the campus of Cornell University in Ithaca, NY attempting to detain UE Local 300-Cornell Graduate Students United member Momodou Taal. Taal is an international graduate worker and visa holder who was terminated from his employment and threatened with deportation by Cornell administrators last September without just cause.

Taalโ€™s termination from Cornell last fall represents a disturbing pattern of university administratorsโ€™ acquiescence to pressures from the federal government to repress dissent and free speech on university campuses. At Cornell, like dozens of other universities, this manifests through the use of โ€œinterim" disciplinary measures that arbitrarily target marginalized workers. These disciplinary measures serve as a warning to others: those who express views that run contrary to universitiesโ€™ financial interests will be punished โ€“ without due process or just cause.

Taalโ€™s termination from Cornell last fall represents a disturbing pattern of university administratorsโ€™ acquiescence to pressures from the federal government to repress dissent and free speech on university campuses.

These disciplinary measures serve as a warning to others: those who express views that run contrary to universitiesโ€™ financial interests will be punished โ€“ without due process or just cause.

Workers across the country mobilized to prevent Taalโ€™s deportation and demand just cause protections for graduate workers, with the understanding that Cornellโ€™s unjust discipline was part of a broader pattern to unilaterally silence constitutionally-protected speech. Taal was never found responsible for any charge because his charges were never actually investigated. And yet, Taal was nearly deported by Cornell Universityโ€™s own hand.

Months later, Taal has become a target for the federal governmentโ€™s attempt to silence workers across the nation. It is impossible to separate Cornellโ€™s arbitrary disciplining of Taal in September from the federal administrationโ€™s attempts to detain and deport him now. If Taal is detained, it will solidify a chilling precedent that any worker in higher education can be targeted by the government for speaking out on any issue. While the current attacks on universities are primarily targeting pro-Palestinian activists, recent cuts in funding to federal agencies and universities make clear that suppression of free speech will not stop there.
