Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Wednesday that the U.S. Department of State is moving to deny visas to Chinese students with ties to their communist government.
“Under President Donald Trump’s leadership, the U.S. State Department will work with the Department of Homeland Security to aggressively revoke visas for Chinese students, including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields,” Rubio said in a statement.

Rubio added that moving forward, the State Dept. will tighten the visa process to better screen out students who have professed anti-American sentiment on social media, too. And that the visa process for all Chinese — student or not — will be revised to screen out dangerous enemies.
The big question is, why has the U.S. just thrown its doors open to any and every one of these foreign enemies?
Why are we educating our enemies? Let China educate its own engineers, scientists, and other key members of their necessary infrastructure!
Its long past time to put America first and stop aiding and abetting our enemies.
