Once again, for the cheap seats in the back: Dave has to, again, explain to people why he covers politics and news as well as #entertainmentindustry news
24.48 min mark: #KenKlippenstein's article about how the State Dept is ordering agents to monitor #studentvisa holders, #socilamedia posts, looking for 'evidence'that someone has criticised the U.S. government., which could lead to finding that they are a...wait for it...'terrorist' #FascistUSA #Fascism
…It gets worse….
On Tues evening a masked group abducted a woman off the streets of #Boston. They wore no uniforms. Their faces were covered.…
The woman being abducted is #RumeysaOzturk, a #Tufts University grad student & Turkish national w/a valid #StudentVisa. She does not appear to have been charged w/any crimes. The US govt merely says that her student #visa has been *revoked* because she “supported Hamas,” but declined to give further details.
The effort—which could include grand jury subpoenas—marks another escalation of #Trump's aggressive crackdown on #immigration & (what he has labeled as) antisemitism that civil libertarians say stifles #FreeSpeech on campus & has led to several lawsuits.
The idea of prohibiting colleges from enrolling any #StudentVisa-holders grew out of Secy of #State #MarcoRubio's "Catch & Revoke" program, which now is focusing on #students who protested against the war in #Gaza.
Another case like #MahmoudKhalil & #BadarSuri:
On March 15, #MomodouTaal, a #CornellUniversity PhD student w/ #UK & #Gambia citizenship, here on a #StudentVisa, filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn #Trump's EO aimed at foreign students accused of "antisemitism”.
This morning at 12:52AM, the #DOJ emailed asking him to come to #ICE to be detained & put into removal proceedings.
#ElonMusk did not say WHEN he transitioned from a #StudentVisa to the temp #WorkVisa. 6 fmr business associates & shareholders said #Musk said he was on a student visa around the time his status became a concern for the company, Zip2.
The report, based on interviews w/fmr business associates, court records & company documents, said Musk worked illegally after ditching a grad program in California to launch a #StartUp that later sold for >$300M.
