United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio perfectly explained the Trump administration policy of deporting activists. Rumeysa Ozturk, a 30-year-old PhD student at Tufts University from Turkey, was taken into ICE custody after writing a pro-Palestine op-ed. Ozturk has not been charged with a crime but her F1 Visa has been revoked. The administration has made it clear that anti-American, pro-terrorists, and antisemitic people here in the United States as guests will be removed. There are about 300 other individuals with cases similar to hers… activists and other potentially destabilizing people.
“We gave you a visa to come and study and get a degree — not to become a social activist that tears up our university campuses,” says @SecRubio on foreign students linked to terror groups.
“If we’ve given you a visa and then you decide to do that, we’re gonna take it away.”
