Just got off the phone with President Trump.

In our meeting earlier, I shared my concerns about Columbia student Elmina Aghayeva, who was detained by ICE this morning.

He has just informed me that she will be released imminently

NEW: ICE agents reportedly lied their way into Columbia housing, without a warrant, to arrest yet another student. This comes almost one year after plainclothes ICE agents arrested Mahmoud Khalil at his Columbia residence, also without a warrant. ICE has no place on our campuses or in our streets.

My latest review for @thementalelf.bsky.social discusses the impact of traumatic brain injury on mental health. Research on this theme is limited & flawed. We need stronger science to support better treatments; the effects of TBI can be enduring & severe. www.nationalelfservice.net/other-health...
