You who say PDJT isn't getting enough arrests .. ok, fair enough but I do like this one .. and I think we're on the right track with this kind of low hanging fruit ...

Be warned: Reddit Link

quote:

Her name is Rumeysa Ozturk, she’s a student from Turkey, attending Tufts as a grad student on a legal visa (sponsored by the university). Her attorney said, “We are unaware of her whereabouts and have not been able to contact her. No charges have been filed against [her] that we are aware of.”


And of course check out the Reddit comments on this one. Kind of funny.

Believe me, she would not be arrested if she wasn't or hasn't been up to something.

She is not a citizen.

If you're here to study and we grant it, fine. Just study. Don't get involved in the politics of the host country but of course, they can't help themselves.

Instead, these people are agents of humanity's enemies.

They're not here to study. They're here to start shite. Well, ICE is helping to finish it.

Yup you aren't hearing about any of the 1.1 million foreign students who abide by their visas and are here to just study.

Also I didn’t know a single college student fhat had a lawyer on retainer/standby. She obviously hasn’t contacted them or anyone else, so they were ready for something like this to happen. Seems a bit odd.

They just picked up an Iranian grad student at Bama as well. His student visa expired but he stayed anyway. Bad decision.

And I get it if people don't like the amount of foreigners we allow in to study but there's a part of me that respects learning.

But damn, if you step out of line and take advantage of our kindness, you deserve a Central America facility visit at least for 30 days.

Maybe he's a good guy. Maybe a plant. But you're right. Wrong decision. He's regretting it as we speak.

Agreed, and I think the extremely vast majority of foreign college students feel the same.

They all know it's a great opportunity, and those who abuse the student visa hurt the reputations of all students on those visas.

I love it. Many more of these Muslim terrorists need to kick rocks.

By the way, we should not be taking ANY students from any Muslim country. It's sheer insanity inviting these terrorists in here.

BOSTON, March 26 (Reuters) - U.S. immigration authorities have detained and revoked the visa of a Turkish doctoral student at Tufts University near Boston who had voiced support for Palestinians in Israel's war in Gaza.


quote:

U.S. Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a post on X authorities determined Ozturk "engaged in activities in support of Hamas, a foreign terrorist organization that relishes the killing of Americans."

"A visa is a privilege not a right," McLaughlin said.

She did not specify what specific activities were engaged in by Ozturk, a Fulbright Scholar and student in Tufts' doctoral program for Child Study and Human Development who had been in the country on an F-1 visa to study.

But Turkish psychology students are critical to the well-being of the United States.

If these people are actually in contact with a terrorist org, then they need to get kicked out of the country.

Now that everyone has figured out you're a leftist here you are trying to put the toothpaste back into the tube.

Sorry, not buying it, leftist.

I'm neither MAGA, right-ist nor left-ist. Independent thinker. I have very nuanced positions. I'm sorry that bothers you.

I can tell you, yes it's possible that LE can pick up people by mistake but in this case, I'm willing to give ICE the benefit of the doubt.

Reddit is such a cesspool. It’s hard to even visit there.
