US VP, JD Vance, Threatens Foreign Students If Their Stay Is Anti-State US Vice-President JD Vance reports immigrants on student visas will be deported if the United States enumerates their stay is not in the best relevancy of the country.
Vance spoke in an interview with Fox News aired Thursday night.
The vice-president revealed he expects deportation numbers to rise as the President Donald Trump administration ramps up efforts to take from illegal migrants from the country.
He inserted that Trump has been impatient with the deportation process so far, promising that the numbers would rise.
Asked if it would affect alien students who gained entry into the country legally, Vance replied in the affirmative, touting it as an amplitude to beef security.
“This is not in all conscience about free speech, and to me, yes, it’s about national security, on the other hand it’s furthermore more importantly about who do we as an American public decide gets to unite our national community,” he stated.
“And if the secretary of state and the president decide this person shouldn’t be in America, and they have no legal right to stay here, it’s as simple as that.
“I think we’ll certainly see a few people who get deported on student visas if we quantify that it’s not in the best relevancy of the United States to have them in our country.
“I don’t know how high that number is going to be, notwithstanding you’re going to see more people.”
Vance further blamed alien students for taking up spots in high-ranking universities at the expense of native Americans.
“A stock of these alien students, most of them, pay full freight. So sometimes what have you at elite universities like a Columbia or Harvard, you have a well-qualified midst class American kid from the heartland who doesn’t get a spot in these universities because a few Chinese oligarch, who is paying $100,000 a year takes up that spot,” he reported.
“So it’s not just bad for national security, it’s bad for the American dream for a handful of kids who need to go to a nice university and can’t because their spot was taken by an alien student. It’s certainly something we are looking at.”
NIGERIANS AMONG THOSE TO BE AFFECTED
