"We’re going to get along good with China. I hear so many stories about we’re not going to allow their students or no, we’re going to allow their students to come in. We’re going to allow it. It’s very important, 600,000 students. It’s very important.".

I would note that the policy Rubio announced in May had no restriction on students from Taiwan. We don’t really worry all that much about espionage from free societies and independent countries.*. *Yes, I realize our government still has the asinine “One China policy,” but I try.

I keep getting told that Trump is going to get tough on China and that he was the only guy who could really stand up to Xi. But Trump is openly defying the law on TikTok, keeping a major Chinese influence and propaganda tool in place. Trump is now allowing American companies to.

But apparently because Trump is getting along with Xi Jinping lately, we are going to more than double the number of Chinese students on college campuses. University presidents should be dancing a jig this morning and singing Trump’s praises; he’s here to save them from the.

I would simply point to U.S. immigration law. If a voluntary member of a Communist Party over age 16 cannot legally become an immigrant, it is unclear why we would want a lot of voluntary members of a Communist Party over age 16 studying and working on American college campuses.

If 600,000 Chinese students in American universities sounds like a lot to you, it’s because it is. That would represent more than doubling the number of Chinese students currently in the United States.

I don’t know how you feel about Trump’s second term, but Xi Jinping is probably loving it so far.

Anyone who thinks strong-minded people will agree 100% of the time is delusional. Anyone who wants all agencies everywhere to rubber stamp one man's opinion without discussion wants a failed presidency. We need people to push back & discuss. And yes, there will be disagreements.

Remember, Mamdani wants the government to intervene in the decision-making of private corporations in the _bad_ ways, but Trump wants the government to intervene in the decision-making of private corporations in the _good_ ways. Mamdani wants to control the means of production;.

"Serious about Safety" feels more like a college sex talk topic during freshman orientation than a serious message for Democratic candidates. This is why our party continues to be so fucked. This is not good advice. It is DC-think in a bubble.

Unlike the previous administration, in this presidency, it’s _15 percent_ for the big guy. Think of it as an agent’s fee. He’s repping America, after all.

"It’s a free market as long as U.S. Steel executives and board members get a permission slip from the president. Then they’re perfectly free to do whatever he wants.". When Mamdani says it, it’s socialism. When Trump does it, it’s genius.
