Marco Rubio Yanks 300+ Student Visas, “Looking For Lunatics”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says at least 300 foreign students have had their visas revoked.

This is on the basis of: if you come to the U.S. to stir up trouble, you’re out.

And that’s not all.

He’s also using AI to scan visa holders’ social media for ties to terror groups like Hamas.

Rubio calls it “Catch and Revoke,” and he’s not slowing down anytime soon.

His goal?

Don’t stop until all the offenders are gone.

“ICE Knowing You!” Haha! Okay, that’s pretty clever.

New York Post reports:

Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed Thursday that he’s revoked the visas of at least 300 foreign students – warning that if you come to the US to “create a ruckus,” you’ll be kicked out.

“It might be more than 300 at this point,” Rubio told reporters at a press conference in Guyana when asked about the number of overseas scholars who have had visas pulled under the Trump administration.

“We do it every day,” the secretary of state continued. “Every time I find one of these lunatics, I take away their visa.”

Rubio, 53, has previously warned that the US will have “zero tolerance” for foreign visitors, including international students, who support terrorist organizations or threaten national security.

The State Department’s so-called “Catch and Revoke” effort has reportedly involved the use of AI tools to scan social media accounts of foreign student visa holders and assess whether they back US-designated terror groups such as Hamas.

“At some point, I hope we run out because we’ve gotten rid of all of them,” Rubio said. “But, we’re looking every day for these lunatics.”

No more playing around when it comes to visas.
