I hope some of his voters are starting to come around.

This is why calling him and anyone who supports him a fascist is something I'm comfortable with. They've already started harassing political opponents coming into the country https://www.cbsnews.com/video/attor...rport-representing-pro-palestinian-protester/ for example. There is a clear progression here. People should be worried. I don't want to sound hysterical and say it's going to wind up like Nazi Germany or anything but things are bad and people should be taking things seriously.

I am convinced that at some point they’re gonna pull every single Chinese student visa and try to send this country into full blown red panic. The Harvard shit is just the first step, testing the waters over Israel to set the stage for something else.

It appears to be all international students at risk of targeting. So far, the Feds have not provided anyone (students, their families, campus staff, local and state officials) with information, evidence, or rationale.

This is another devastating economic screwup by Trump and the GOP. International students and their families pay full tuition. Before receiving a visa to enter the US, and then documentation to remain in country legally, they must show bank statements to prove ability to pay full tuition, rent, food, transportation, utilities, etc. This is already impacting campuses and every college city/community as it's a multimillion dollar drain, and the financial loss is, again, 100% America's.

As disastrous as this is, it is not the only problem. International tourism is also decreasing. People don't want to risk going to or sending their families to a broken, failed state.

Hegseth has another scandal where he shared war plans in a open chat with his wife, lawyer and others.

Trump may name Vance "Tariff Czar" to be the fall guy.

Not that it would matter to any Trump supporters, but it’s truly amazing during the 45 presidency and into the 47 that he is absolutely incapable of hiring people who are not absolutely incompetent, or in the case of the 45 staffers who refused to do illegal things and resigned.

The feds have now cancelled SEVIS for 12 international students at Minnesota State. The student that was abducted a few weeks ago is suing the federal govt as, predictably, it was their protest/activism as the sole reason.
