Looks like Ravi Ragbir has a criminal record which could lead to a deportation order if it is determined in a review of his Green Card that he is no longer a welcomed immigrant in the USA. A 2001 wire fraud conviction will probably be the factor that determines whether he stays or goes. Most likely he'll be bidding farewell even as the immigrants and activist scream bloody murder. Why do they like their criminals so well?

Exclusive: Facing Possible Deportation, Immigrant Activist Ravi Ragbir Speaks Out Before ICE Check-in
Snipets From Discover The Networks:
Serious questions have arisen about how Democracy Now!, begun and developed with the resources of Pacifica Radio and grants from the Carnegie Corporation, the Ford Foundation, the J.M. Kaplan Fund and others, suddenly became independent and the effective property of Amy Goodman without recompense to Pacifica. This transfer apparently included valuable assets such as trademarks, ownership of years of archived programs, affiliate station access, and more.
In a contract that remains secret, Amy Goodman is also receiving $1 million per year for a five-year period that began in 2002, according to Pacifica Treasurer Jabari Zakiya, to continue doing what has become Pacifica's flagship morning news program. This is more than double Goodman's officially stated stipend of $440,000 per year from Pacifica Radio.
