The State Department has revoked more than 6,000 international student visas, but the reason remains unclear.

I'll see your resume. You may be a great candidate. Then I'll find that you were doing this. Or fighting the police or whatever it was. I'll put that resume on the left into the garbage, because I know I can find someone else just as good as you. [00:00:15] Of which there are tens of thousands of candidates that didn't participate in this. You are trashing your future. It's being shot on 1080p and 4K video and from surveillance cameras with extremely high resolution. [00:00:31] In low light conditions, including retinal scanning, this is what's happened with A.I.. Well, those are the types of threats student protesters were met with after they were horrified to learn of the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip [00:00:48] carried out by the Israeli military. And, not only did they face those threats from the business community, which could have totally destroyed their futures post college, international students who took part, would be labeled as terrorists [00:01:05] by our own federal government and have their student visas revoked. Now, I give you that background because the State Department has announced that they've revoked student visas for more than 6000 international students, claiming that foreign students who had their visas revoked either broke [00:01:23] the law in some way or were found to be, supporters of terrorism. So this is based on exclusive reporting over at the BBC. They wanted to understand, you know, which students are having their visas revoked, [00:01:38] how many international students have had their visas revoked? And here's what they've learned. So of the 6000 visas that were revoked, the State Department alleges that 4000 were due to the student visitors essentially breaking laws. [00:01:54] The agency said that the vast majority of the violations were assault, driving under the influence, burglary and support for terrorism. So again, we know that 4000, according to the State Department, were for individuals [00:02:09] who allegedly broke the law. Another 200 to 300 visas were revoked due to terrorism done under I3B, which refers to code that defines terrorist activity broadly as acts that [00:02:26] endanger human life or violate US law. Really, we had 300 international students in the country that were engaged in support for terrorism, that put our lives in jeopardy. You want to talk about the Israeli official who got let go after getting [00:02:42] caught in a sting operation, trying to have sex with a 15 year old kid? Come on. Yeah. Come on. So, look, guys, this is, you know, supporters of Israel saying, we own you. [00:02:58] If you criticize Israel, we will make sure that you never work. I mean, Kevin O'Leary was super clear, right? We're going to do a terror campaign in America. If you criticize Israel for slaughtering children, [00:03:13] we're going to put you on a blacklist of good people will never hire because we're all disgusting pigs who love genocide. That's Kevin O'Leary's list. That's Bill Ackman's list. Get back to him in a minute. So now, on top of that. [00:03:29] Oh, you have maimed Palestinian children who we paid to maim. Right. And, and and they barely survived. And they desperately need medical attention. But Laura Loomer said we should send them back. So let's invent reasons to send them back. Let's call people terrorists. [00:03:47] Because you know what the real like Israel has killed 60 times the number of civilians Hamas has. They're obviously a much worse terrorist organization. It's not even close. They've killed more than 500 times the number of children. They're disgusting terrorists in that government. [00:04:03] But let's work for them. And if you if you criticize them or you've been maimed by them, we're going to call you the terrorist. It's just truth on its head. It's George Orwell, 1984. Define. We're living in 1984. So while the State Department did not specify what they meant [00:04:20] by support for terrorism, of. Course they didn't. They meant Palestinian, Arab or Muslim. - Or, by the way, Christian Palestinians. - As we all know. The Trump administration has targeted some students who have protested in support of Palestine, which really, really ruffles the feathers of Benjamin Netanyahu [00:04:38] and other figures within. Kevin O'Leary and Bill Ackman and American businessmen who create blacklists of decent, moral people who they'll never hire because they don't want anybody moral working for them. I mean, if they're going to go rob you on Wall Street, they don't want you to have any morals. So there's a little bit of logic actually, to their list. [00:04:55] Yeah. I mean, I guess a lot of logic, but we have a constitution. Our Constitution protects everyone within our borders, including students who are visa holders. So the idea that their political speech should be punished because it hurts the feelings of members of the business community or members [00:05:13] of the Israeli government, is pretty sick. Now, look, I would like further clarification from the State Department because, you know, they say that they've revoked 6000 visas, 4000 for for individuals who broke the law. I have no problem with people having their visas revoked if they broke the law. [00:05:30] Okay. But that leaves another. What? 2000 and of those, 2300 had their visas revoked due to support for terrorism, which I don't believe at all. What about the rest? So there's a lack of transparency here. [00:05:47] And using student visas or revoking student visas as a form of punishment for political speech is a huge problem, especially if that's being directed by a foreign country. And again, we don't have enough clarity here. They gave the BBC some information. [00:06:05] By the way, let's note that the BBC is an international news organization. I find it hilarious that American organizations haven't dug into this story to find the more granular details about the student visas being revoked. [00:06:21] Now, Trump halted scheduling visa appointments for international students earlier this year, but he has reinstated the policy allowing for these student visas to be, you know, for the applications to be looked into and allow for international [00:06:36] students to come into the country. But it would require enhanced screening, including making any private social media accounts public. So the State Department can, you know, read through it to make sure there's no support for the Palestinian people and nothing but support for Israel. [00:06:54] They said that they would search for any indications of hostility toward the citizens, culture, government institutions or founding principles of the United States. State Department officers were also instructed to screen for those who advocate for aid or support designated foreign terrorists [00:07:10] and other threats to national security, or who perpetuate unlawful anti-Semitic harassment or violence. And as we know, I mean, the simplest things are considered anti-Semitic in this country. Things like denouncing genocide, for instance, [00:07:26] or having a corner store in New York City that's called the Gaza convenience store. I heard that a lot of, you know, people in New York City, Jewish New Yorkers, were very offended by that, and they felt unsafe. [00:07:42] I don't know what to say. Like, how are you going to complain about feeling unsafe when you simply see the name of a corner store and it contains Gaza in it, when the country you support is bombing, maiming and slaughtering children? [00:08:00] Like how tone deaf can people be? Anyway, that's the final thing I have to say about this story. - But it's just sick. - Yeah. So, look, guys, there are no movements to expel people who criticize Finland or Peru. [00:08:17] Or major powers like Germany, Japan, China, Russia. There's no ally enemy. It doesn't matter. There's only one country you're not allowed to criticize in America. And funny enough, it's not America. It's a different country. It's Israel. And we should be allowed to criticize America. [00:08:34] Of course we have freedom of speech here. But do we really have freedom of speech? Because if we speak. But it's about Israel. Well that's it. Get out of here. You're arrest. Deport, take away their diplomas. Terrorize them. Make sure they never get a job, haunt them for the rest of their lives [00:08:52] for being decent moral human beings, etc.. So we don't really First Amendment. They should put an asterisk on it unless you criticize Israel. And by the way, now, the modern day definitions of anti-Semitism as made up by a bunch of Israeli supporters that are totally trashed, [00:09:08] they I mean, nothing at all. Are loaded with any criticism of Israel is anti-Semitism? Yeah. Any criticism of a political ideology? Zionism is considered anti-Semitic. Why? Why? I mean. Zionism, Zionism is. Let me take your land. [00:09:24] Hold on and let me kill you and take your land. So there are a ton of evangelical Christians who are Zionists. So, like, let's stop pretending and let's stop conflating, okay, what Israel is doing with Judaism and Jews across the globe, [00:09:41] because it just that conflation is intentional and I think defamatory to Jews across the globe. Yeah. Anyway, and I'm allowed to say anything I want about Zionism because it's America. There's no goddamn asterisks, no matter how much they want it. And what's hilarious and a sick joke is people like Bill Ackman [00:09:59] and Alex Karp, the head of Palantir. I saw him in to give this giant speech over the weekend. Listen to an hour of him talking about we're for freedom of speech. Right, right right. But but but but but but but but on college campuses. Alex, this is Alex Karp. [00:10:15] They should they should not be allowed to speak. Bill Ackman writing letters that I mentioned earlier to Harvard and other places. How dare you get back in line. Okay. No one should be allowed to criticize Israel. I mean, sure, Jews are. [00:10:31] By the way, why aren't people allowed to criticize anyone they like? What kind of new rule is this? No. It's there. It's so obvious. It's so obvious. There's one country that controls us. It's not a people. There's nobody asked a Jewish American randomly. [00:10:47] Hey, Dave, what would you like us to do with the country? That's not how it works. Okay. It is a foreign government. And there are people inside this country who love that foreign government and way more than they love our country way more. And say that we should all work for them. No thank you. [00:11:04] Every time you ring the bell below, an angel gets his wings. Totally not true. But it does keep you updated on our live shows.
