Khizr Khan Reportedly Told His "Travel Privileges Are Being Reviewed," Offers No Comment

On Monday, a group called Ramsay Talks canceled its Tuesday event in Toronto, because the event's featured speaker, Khizr Khan, would not be able to attend. Khan, the Gold Star father famous for challenging Donald Trump in an appearance at the Democratic National Convention last year, had reportedly been told that his “travel privileges are being reviewed.” Khan has been an American citizen for more than 30 years.

My old man didn't get blinded in one eye and contact malaria in the Battle of North Africa in WW ll so some orange hued draft dodger could one day become president and pull this Hitler shit. I carry his wallet sized Honorable Discharge in my wallet. He must be turning around in his grave.

1. He should go ahead and go, and force the issue

[leftstreet]

10. +1

[Cryptoad]

15. Hell yea,,,, there ar teams of lawyers lining up now to support him!

[MedusaX]

2. Unfortunately

There will be no allied forces willing to lift a finger -- much less lose an eye & contract malaria -- in order to put a stop to The Orange Reich....

So we are clearly on our own to eliminate this regime - by any means necessary.

32. Any ideas how??? I tell myself this, and I make more phone

calls, march, etc., but it isn't really happening. He is like a sports ball machine, popping out balls of destruction faster than most people can think. Of course, he doesn't waste time thinking

[sinkingfeeling]

3. Just about what I wrote on my pink postcard. My uncles

died fighting fascism in Italy. Not going to.have it in the USA.

5. The Thumps have been here over one hundred years and not one has donned our nation's uniform.

That's remarkable

[tecelote]

18. +1!

Good to know.

[malaise]

19. And grand daddy didn't wear one for Germanyand was banished

What a family

[Buckeye_Democrat]

4. Trump is a vindictive MF'er!

Maybe his administration didn't target Khan specifically, but I wouldn't put it past them given Trump's past behavior.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

7. He is a freaking citizen. He can come and go as he wants.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

9. I know! This just strikes me as something Trump instigated...

because Khan burned his ass at the Democratic Convention.

[Bayard]

13. Exactly!

If they are going to start implementing this idiocy against U.S. citizens, then no one is safe. This particular one sounds like it came straight from Rump.

[Alice11111]

33. I'm sure they would watch him, but he is courageous.

I think the ACLU and others hsve probably talked with him about being a Plaintiff. If the same lawyers who advised Sessions to get the hell out, or any other competent lawyers advice DT admin, they will leave Kahn alone. If they bother him, he is the best plaintiff. For us, a win/win. For them, a lose/lose. Go Khan!

[MFM008]

6. mine to

ashes are hopping like Mexican jumping beans...........

[guillaumeb]

8. This type of thing happened frequently in the USSR.

Sad that the modern GOP would resort to similar behavior.

[CincyDem]

11. My dad would be spinning too.

3 ships torpedoed out from under him and he spent D-day off the coast fishing bodies out of the water to be sure they didn't get lost...for this ?

I think not.

They are such asshats.

[leftstreet]

12. I've never heard of 'travel privileges' unless it's a bank card

Bank cards like American Express offer 'travel privileges,' but that's the only time I've heard that phrase

[mwooldri]

27. If I still worked at Amex, I'd be reviewing his "travel privileges"...

... for an upgrade. But that would be personal opinion, plus Amex has a team that works with prominent people like Mr. Khan.

Usually meaning able to get into airport lounges, free pass to get through the TSA line easier, etc.

I too am confused about 'travel privileges'. We are not the DPRK needing a pass to leave the village, or the Soviet Union requiring an exit visa.

[SticksnStones]

14. Told by whom I wonder...

Is he getting calls at his home from Immgration? Homeland security?

I'd sure like to follow the paper trail back to the source of THAT decision.

Wow.

[nini]

16. My dad and all my uncles fought too

and they are all spinning in their graves right now.. Pisses me off to no end

[The Wizard]

17. Law suit on the horizon

Make them pay. Hasn't this family seen enough grief?

[TeamPooka]

20. How very Soviet. nt

[brer cat]

21. Another day,

another decision made by a vengeful asshole. He is loving the power he has, but he won't have it for long at this rate. I hope someone in Congress is going to get this straight asap. The Khans have suffered enough.

[NoMoreRepugs]

22. This is only the beginning......

Bannon has an agenda that would appear to be WHITES ONLY....there is more to come I'd venture

[nolabear]

23. How long does it take the cable news guys to catch up?

I can't believe this isn't a hot button issue. It's been on the internet for about six hours.

[Kablooie]

24. Using the office of President for pure personal vindictive shit.

[yuiyoshida]

25. Seriously if I tried to leave the US to go on a vacation to lets say

Tokyo, what would be my chances of re-entering the US? Pretty much nil...even with an American passport. They would likely ship me back to Tokyo and told to await my case..

[Ilsa]

26. About once a week I remind myself that I'm glad my parents aren't

Alive to see this authoritarian shit going down. My father wasn't physically injured, but he had ptsd from his multiple battles in the South Pacific.

[Hortensis]

28. This IS how fascists behave. And when people you

know support it, that will be how supporters of fascism behave.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

29. NO American citizen is safe from President Bannon's DHS / ICE forces. . . . . nt

[Jakes Progress]

30. trump just asks WWPD.

[dembotoz]

31. Wasn't Ali's kid a citizen too?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

34. Born in the U.S.A.
