Mohsen Mahdawi , a Palestinian activist, was released from an immigration jail April 14 .

He was released two weeks later by a judge who likened the government’s actions to McCarthyist repression.

"The Trump administration wanted to rob me of this opportunity. They wanted me to be in a prison, in prison clothes," he says.
