Deport the Foreign Agitator
Ezra Klein is a smart guy. He knows what CUAD has said and done at Columbia. The fact that he decided to leave all of that out of his conversation with Khalil is not the result of ignorance. He made a choice. The only way he can portray Khalil as an innocent victim of the Trump administration instead of a pro-terrorist extremist is to minimize all of that previous, inconvenient speech. That's the interview Klein wanted and it's the interview he tried to deliver.
The interview got negative backlash anyway because, despite Klein's best efforts, some of Khalil's extremism was still evident, i.e. saying the 10/7 attack was inevitable. Klein did his best to put lipstick on this pig and, sadly for him, it still wasn't very pretty.
How about asking Khalil what he does for work? What is his job? How does he earn a living?
