U.S Cracks Down on Chinese Students With Communist Ties | Trump’s WAR on Foreign Students Spreads

The U.S. is ramping up its anti-China stance with new visa restrictions targeting Chinese students. Senator Marco Rubio revealed plans to revoke visas of students with alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party or sensitive academic fields. China has condemned the move, accusing the U.S. of politicizing education and harming international cooperation. With Chinese students making up the second-largest international group in the U.S., these policies could disrupt academic institutions and worsen U.S.-China relations. The State Department has also paused new interviews and expanded social media screening for applicants. #USChinaTensions #StudentVisas #MarcoRubio #ChinaUSRelations #ChineseStudents #VisaBan #InternationalStudents #EducationPolicy #StudentCrackdown #HigherEd #GlobalEducation #USPolitics #BeijingResponse #MaoNing #ForeignPolicy #CCP #TechSecurity #VisaPolicy #WhiteHouse #USUniversities #TrumpLegacy #AcademicFreedom #DiplomaticRow #China #HongKong #RubioStatement #StudentScreening #SocialMediaCheck #ChinaUSConflict #InternationalRelations #GlobalStudents Also Read J-35 Fighter Jet May Head To Pakistan As India Accelerates AMCA Push :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/j-35-fighter-jet-may-head-to-pakistan-as-india-accelerates-amca-push-4165099.html?ref=DMDesc China, Pakistan Agree With Kabul To Expand CPEC To Afghanistan :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-pakistan-agree-with-kabul-to-expand-cpec-to-afghanistan-4159507.html?ref=DMDesc China’s Renaming Stunt in Arunachal Won’t Change Reality, Says India :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/china-s-renaming-stunt-in-arunachal-won-t-change-reality-says-india-4152779.html?ref=DMDesc

Trump Loyalist Russel Vought Takes Over DOGE, Vought To Lead Mass Layoffs With ‘Slash & Burn’ Agenda

Elon Musk has stepped down from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), handing the reins to conservative policy strategist Russell Vought. A key Trump ally, Vought is best known for shaping Project 2025 and pushing aggressive spending cuts and federal downsizing. He aims to revive Trump’s Schedule F and slash budgets at agencies like USAID and NPR. Musk, who reportedly wants to focus on Tesla and SpaceX, had worked closely with Vought during DOGE’s early days.

Putin’s Two-Faced Diplomacy EXPOSED: Urges Peace While Backing Iran’s Missile Strike On Israel

Russia is playing both arsonist and fireman. As Vladimir Putin urges Israel to resolve conflict through diplomacy, he openly defends Iran’s missile barrage on Tel Aviv. Moscow blasted Israel’s strikes as “unprovoked” and a violation of the UN Charter, and even offered Tehran condolences for its dead generals. The Kremlin paints itself as a peace broker — but is arming Iran, deepening ties, and offering to remove enriched uranium to "help." This dual narrative exposes a calculated double game as war looms in the Middle East. #RussiaIran #PutinIsraelTensions #MiddleEastCrisis #IranMissileStrike #TelAvivAttack #PutinDoubleGame #IranRetaliation #RussiaBacksIran #UNCharterViolation #KremlinDiplomacy #PutinVsIsrael #RussiaMiddleEast #BreakingNews #TehranStrike #IsraelIranConflict #MoscowSupportIran #PutinStrategy #MiddleEastWar #PutinContradiction #RussiaIsraelIran Also Read Iran Army Claims Its Suicide Drones Successfully Hit Targets :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-army-claims-its-suicide-drones-successfully-hit-targets-4181599.html?ref=DMDesc Iran-Israel Conflict: India Issues Advisory For Nationals In Israel; Warns Citizens To Remain Vigilant :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-israel-conflict-india-issues-advisory-for-nationals-in-israel-warns-citizens-to-remain-vigila-4181365.html?ref=DMDesc From Covert Ops To All-Out Strike: How Israel And Iran Reached The Brink :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/from-covert-ops-to-all-out-strike-how-israel-and-iran-reached-the-brink-4181293.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~
