In just four days, he was transferred between five different facilities across three states, where he was refused food or water to break his fast, forced to sleep on the floor in overcrowded cells surrounded by blaring television, and lights on for hours on end, with his family left reeling in his absence.
On Monday, at Zeteo’s anniversary event in DC, his wife, Mapheze Saleh, joined Zeteo’s political correspondent Prem Thakker in front of an audience to tell us about who Badar Khan Suri is as a person, the conditions he faced in ICE detention, and how deeply this has affected her family.

All Jackson did was tell an immigrant family their legal rights and offered to find them pro bono assistance. Two days later when the masked agents knocked, he realized his Wi-Fi was down and he had no Ring camera footage of the interaction.
“Are you Clayton Jackson? And I responded, yes and then the next thing they said was, you know, we have information to suggest that you're obstructing an active immigration investigation. And that's when, you know, I kind of — a light bulb in my head turned on that this was, you know, potentially something a lot more, you know, dark.”
When he went to his employer on this, he was fired immediately.

“This is laying the ground foundationally and will be a threat to everyone. This means that this could be you tomorrow for suffering a miscarriage, because in Trump's America, that's been criminalized. This means this could be you tomorrow for reading a banned book,” Pressley says. “With this dictator in chief, simply because you have a dissenting opinion from his worldview, you could find yourself incarcerated.”
Mehdi asks Pressley about President Donald Trump’s first 100 days of his second term, as well as the state of the Democratic party.
“I do not believe, Mehdi, that this is about weathering the next four years. I believe this will dictate the next 100,” Pressley says to Mehdi.

- When the ugliness of Israel’s crimes in occupied Gaza overshadows the ugliness of its crimes in the occupied West Bank, films like Farah Nabulsi’s latest release, ‘The Teacher,’ become all the more important.
“I hope the film actually now offers a deeper context that I might not have set out to provide when I first made this film,” said Filmmaker Farah Nablusi, “a deeper human context that seems to be missing from the discourse”.
The BAFTA-winning, Oscar-nominated Palestinian Director joins Mehdi to discuss her latest film, which centers around the struggle of Palestinians living in the occupied West Bank through the lens of a school teacher there.
The movie was filmed entirely in the occupied West Bank before October 7, 2023. However, Nabulsi — a UK native — faced difficulties securing a distributor in the UK for her film, which centers on the Palestinian struggle for liberation.
