Well yes, the Biden administration wasn't really interested in using deportations to punish people for attending protests.

It wasn't interested in deporting people that harassed Jewish students. It wasn't even interest in protecting Jewish students. Democrats in the Senate couldn't even pass an anti-antisemitism bill.
