#Trump & #MarcoRubio claiming the #student #deportations are because they are fighting #antisemitism in the US, is like #Putin saying he’s fighting #Nazis in #Ukraine.

Bullshit.

Especially because Trump is happy to defend #FreeSpeech in favor of #WhiteSupremacy, even if the people spouting it are violent criminals, like the #ProudBoys or #OathKeepers.

"Ms. Srinivasan, a Fulbright recipient who was pursuing a doctoral degree in urban planning, was caught in the dragnet of President Trump’s crackdown on pro-Palestinian demonstrators through the use of federal immigration powers. She is one of a handful of noncitizens that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has targeted at Columbia in recent days."

"First-term Rep. Riley Moore (https://R-W.Va.) is backing legislation that would prohibit all Chinese nationals from obtaining student visas.

The bill, dubbed the Stop Chinese Communist Prying by Vindicating Intellectual Safeguards in Academia Act (Stop CCP VISAs Act) would cut off the threat of Chinese students spying on the American government or stealing advanced technology, Moore said in a news release Friday."

More Foreign Meddling in U.S. Politics

Betar, an international far-right pro-Israel group, took credit for the DHS arrest of Mahmoud Khalil. They also claimed they sent “thousands of names” of Palestine defenders to Trump for deportation.

Betar is so right-wing that even the ADL, (itself a racist, right-wing zionist organization), blacklisted them for comments like "not enough" babies were killed in Gaza.

"Protesters waving flags, chanting slogans and blowing whistles massed in the Serbian capital on Saturday to join the latest in a series of student-led demonstrations that have mounted an unprecedented challenge to President Aleksandar #Vucic’s government."
[...]
"The #student-led protests have become the most serious challenge to Vucic’s rule since the Progressive Party came to power in 2012. Vucic has described the protests as an attempted #revolution."
