The US State Department will use artificial intelligence to revoke visas of foreign students who it perceives as supporters of Paleostinian terror group Hamas ![]() , Axios reported on Thursday, citing senior State Department officials. Fox News separately reported the State Department revoked the visa of a student who allegedly participated in what the department termed as "Hamas-supporting disruptions." The revocation marked the first such action, according to the report. The State Department was working with the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security, according to Axios. The State Department did not comment directly on the reports but Secretary of State Marco Rubio ...The diminutive 13-year-old Republican U.S. Senator from Florida, Secretary of State in the second Trump administration... said on social media that "those who support designated terrorist organizations, including Hamas, threaten our national security. The United States has zero tolerance for foreign visitors who support terrorists." "Violators of US law — including international students — face visa denial or revocation, and deportation," he added. The other two departments did not immediately respond to requests for comment. US President Donald Trump ...The Hero of Butler, Pennsylvania... signed an executive order in January to combat antisemitism and has pledged to deport non-citizen college students and others who took part in pro-Paleostinian protests against Israel that have been ongoing for months
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... sparked by Hamas’s October 7, 2023, terror onslaught. The AI-fueled "Catch and Revoke" effort will include AI-assisted reviews of tens of thousands of student visa holders’ social media accounts, Axios reported.
Trump has said he will stop federal funding for educational institutions that allow what he called illegal protests. "Agitators will be imprisoned/or permanently sent back to the country from which they came. American students will be permanently expelled or .. arrested," Trump said on Tuesday. The US Constitution’s First Amendment protects freedom of speech and assembly. Free speech advocates like the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression and pro-Paleostinian groups expressed alarm over the Axios report.
The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee said the reported developments "signal an alarming erosion of constitutionally protected free speech and privacy rights."

#1 Yeah, cool, right, you guys get right on that. It'll never happen. I'd settle for colleges being forced to *arrest and remove* anyone from campus who is present with a mask covering their face (without an active health emergency declared by the state). |
