Rubio says State Department has revoked at least 300 student visas

As the Trump administration takes aim at foreign-born students, some are being picked up off the street by immigration officials and held in detention centers

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Thursday the State Department has revoked 300 or more student visas, as the White House increasingly targets foreign-born students whose whose main transgression seems to be activism.

(……..)

The detentions are a signal of a broader effort by President Donald Trump to clamp down on the actions of legal permanent residents, student visa holders and others who live and work legally in the United States, one that threatens to undermine a fundamental American right to free speech and to assemble, experts and advocates said.

1. This is exactly what happened almost 100 years ago in Europe..the academia were targeted and had to flee

Or ended up disappearing. Many came here but where will targeted people go from here..back to Europe? TSF has gone full blown authoritarian.

2. Not one of these individuals has been accused of committing a crime.

It is NOT a crime to speak, write, or distribute something that a (mal)administration does not like.
This clown show has turned in their colorful outfits for black uniforms and jackboots.

We have the power to end this. Stand up, speak out, be fearless, for our cause is just.

If you have a local election coming up, VOTE, and take everyone you know with you!

I will never advocate violence, but I do advocate "Good Trouble".

3. A Fulbright scholar, PhD student - snatched off the street by 6 masked persons.

Dressed in black, MASKED, no uniforms, no visible identification. Whisked into a black unmarked car, handcuffed. Disappeared.

No charges. She did write an op-ed in the student newspaper critical of Israel's actions in Gaza. Need I say more?

What cruelty, to ruin young promising lives. For what? Why??

4. If you dig deeper

Into the links within nbcbews, you will come across a link that seems to indicate Fetterman also has a role in these moves. Now. why is Fetterman involved? To be frank, if Justice Dept can prove the Hamas connection, they can deport. Issue is not that. Issue is-Are we following our own laws, which is the beacon of democracy. Just bring it to court, prove it, and then deport. No one is saying Hamas is welcome. We know Hamas is a terrorist organization. No one is questioning it. Just give the persons apprehended a day in the courts.

5. "If I had opened the door, I would be in a detention center now" - they didn't have a warrant

Thanks to her roommate(s), who wouldn't let the kidnappers in without a warrant, Ranjani Srinavasan, a Columbia University doctoral student from India, is now free in the democratic country of Canada.

The Underground Railroad is reborn. Alternatively, look on it as the first stage of The Handmaid's Tale.
