During a cabinet meeting chaired by President Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio reiterated the administration's policy concerning the deportation of foreign college students deemed radicals and agitators. Rubio emphasized the stance that a student visa is not a fundamental human right.
In his remarks, Rubio used a metaphor to illustrate the policy, comparing the situation to a homeowner asking a disruptive guest to leave. He criticized Democrats and media figures for allegedly misunderstanding this concept. Rubio remarked, "No one’s entitled to a student visa. The press covers student visas like they're some sort of birthright. No, a student visa is like me inviting you into my home."
Rubio further elaborated on the administration's expectations for foreign students. He stated, "If you come to this country as a student, we expect you to go to class and study and get a degree. If you come here to, like, vandalize a library, take over a campus, and do all kinds of crazy things, you know, we’re going to get rid of these people."
An excerpt from the discussion was shared on social media by MAGA Voice, highlighting Rubio's stance that disruptive foreign students would face deportation under the outlined policy.
Rubio's role at the State Department has been described positively within the cabinet, with some considering his contributions as an unexpected positive addition.
