of Chinese Foreign Students
Posted By: PostAway, 8/29/2025 8:34:02 AM
President Donald Trump recently announced that America will take in 600,000 Chinese foreign students, outraging much of MAGA. While the White House has clarified this is a continuation of existing policy, the move appears anathema to the spirit of America First, and prominent commentators criticized the president for suggesting it.

Art Garfunkel has described a recent tearful reunion with Paul Simon, in which the pair moved past old enmities. Speaking to the Times, Garfunkel said: “I actually had lunch with Paul a couple of weeks back. First time we’d been together in many years. I looked at Paul and said, ‘What happened? Why haven’t we seen each other?’
Meghan of Montecito

The conditions are right for confession. Meghan, relaxing in a cozy chair, gazes over all that is climate-controlled and high-ceilinged and sun-dappled and perfectly marshmallowy, and hers. An invisible hand has lit a Soho House–branded rose-water candle (the founder, Nick Jones, is a friend from “long before I met Harry,” she says), and that scent fills the air, mingling with the gentle tones of a flamenco-inflected guitar floating from a speaker. Then, in the lull in conversation, Meghan turns to me and leans forward to ask in a conspiratorial hush, “Do you want to know a secret?
What If I’m Right?

Since the previous century I’ve been articulating in the public arena an array of interconnecting ideas about how the world works. For example, I tend to suspect that racial differences in achievement in 2021 have more to do with nature and nurture, with culture and human biodiversity, than with unspecifiable malevolence on the part of white men as dictated by the theory of systemic racism.
(Note that I don’t put very much effort into telling you how I think the world should work, just how it does work. At least, the latter’s testable.)
The Biden administration is refusing to weigh in on the Iranian foreign minister claiming in a leaked recording that former Secretary of State and current Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry told him about secret Israeli operations being carried out in In response, Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) called on Kerry to resign during a speech on the Senate floor. It's become clear...that our adversaries, whether Beijing or Iran, like it when John Kerry is in charge of foreign policy and national security. Why? Because they know how to use him to their advantage," Sullivan said.

This week’s column starts in a Georgia ghetto, and ends in the Middle East. Some of you might remember Anthony Stokes. He was a 15-year-old DeKalb County, Ga., hood rat with a bum ticker who kept getting passed over for a heart transplant because of his “high risk” lifestyle, which included burglary, weapons charges, arson, and neglecting to take his prescribed meds.

A second criminal referral was filed against Lisa Cook on Thursday, alleging the embattled Federal Reserve Board governor may have made “misrepresentations” on mortgage documents and government disclosures. The complaint to the Justice Department was lodged by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte, who was the source of the initial criminal referral that President Trump is using to attempt to fire Cook “for cause.” “3 strikes and you’re out. Today, US Federal Housing sent a 2nd Criminal Referral in the matter of Lisa D. Cook,

Former Vice President Kamala Harris lost her Secret Service protection Thursday after President Donald Trump withdrew the privilege. An Oval Office directive instructs the agency to discontinue all security procedures beyond those required by law, effective September 1, Newsweekreports.(snip)Harris originally had her protection extended by Biden from beyond the traditional six months previously afforded VP’s after they leave office. CNN notes Biden’s order to extend was secret – not made public until now – signed by him shortly before leaving office, according to multiple people familiar with the undisclosed arrangement.
The sewage in New England's exclusive Nantucket retreat is full of cocaine, according to local authorities, who this summer began testing it to monitor potential drug use in a popular summer getaway for the rich and powerful.
"During COVID, a lot of these communities, and most communities, decided that it was important for them to start testing the water to see if there were any spikes in COVID in the region." said Randolph Rice, a Maryland attorney and legal analyst. "But what Nantucket has now decided to do as of the beginning of the summer is to actually start testing for other types of substances, particularly drugs, nicotine and other items
The black community’s disengagement from ordinary acts of civic responsibility is harming America as a whole, but mostly, it’s harming blacks. To save their communities, blacks need to reengage with what was once normative polite conduct across American society. To appreciate this point, consider the tales told by abandoned shopping carts and litter. [snip] Here’s the thing: Shopping carts and litter are just the most benign signs of conscientiousness and citizenship. The lack of such betrays itself in far more malignant ways as well, and we’re seeing that across the country, particularly in videos: Spirit Airlines airport counters. Six Flags parks. Carnival Cruise Line ships.
As all men who don't actively hate themselves continue to flee the Democrat party in droves, lefty strategists have been ramping up efforts to recruit and run manly candidates. That is certainly something they should be endeavoring to do, but sadly, they can't seem to hurdle a major stumbling block: They don't know what a man is any more than they know what a woman is, let alone a red-blooded patriotic Christian fellow who bows to no other man except the Lord.[snip]Sand fits the left's shallow caricature of what a "Christian Conservative" is,

Minnesota Bishop Robert Barron sharply criticized Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for dismissing calls for prayer following Wednesday’s deadly Catholic school shooting, calling the mayor’s remarks "completely asinine." "Catholics don’t think that prayer magically protects them from all suffering. After all, Jesus prayed fervently from the cross on which he was dying," Barron told Fox News Digital.
The Knife and Axe Girl Was Right

A couple of days ago, Beege wrote a great article (redundant, I know) about the 14-year-old girl in Scotland who defended her sister against a migrant who threatened her.
She was arrested because the tools she used to scare away the predator were a knife and an axe. A 14-year-old girl in Scotland has been charged with possession of a knife after viral footage showed her and another minor being approached and filmed by at least one foreign man.
The girl brandishes a knife and an axe before walking away from the scene.
The incident occurred on Saturday evening in the Lochee area of Dundee.
"She will be reported to the relevant authorities,"
President Donald Trump recently announced that America will take in 600,000 Chinese foreign students, outraging much of MAGA. While the White House has clarified this is a continuation of existing policy, the move appears anathema to the spirit of America First, and prominent commentators criticized the president for suggesting it.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) joined other Democrats in mocking the idea of prayer in the wake of the mass shooting at a Catholic school in Minneapolis this week, noting that the children were praying at the time.
In a post on X, responding to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s claim that “prayer works,”, Newsom said: “There children were literally praying as they got shot at,” implying that prayer does not work. Democrats have long attacked the idea of offering “thoughts and prayers” for the victims and their families in the wake of mass shootings, arguing that political action is needed, particularly gun control legislation.
NEW YORK - A divided U.S. appeals court ruled on Friday that most of Donald Trump's tariffs are illegal, undercutting the Republican president's use of the levies as a key international economic policy tool.
The court allowed the tariffs to remain in place through October 14 to give the Trump administration a chance to file an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court. Trump has made tariffs a pillar of U.S. foreign policy in his second term, using them to exert political pressure and renegotiate trade deals with countries that export goods to the United States.
The tariffs have given the Trump administration leverage to extract economic concessions
Robin Westman, 23, was identified by police as the suspect behind the shooting at a Catholic school in Minneapolis on Wednesday that left two children dead and 18 others injured.
(snip)According to the Minnesota Star Tribune, Westman was one of three children of Mary Grace and James Allen Westman, who divorced in 2013 after 25 years of marriage. A since-deleted Facebook post from August 2021 said Mary Grace was retiring as a parish secretary of the church, with the post thanking her for her “wonderful hospitality, friendship and compassion.”
During her morning news conference, Sheinbaum pointed to a graph that showed the number of deportations of Mexican nationals by the U.S. presidents. “The largest period of deportations from the United States to Mexico was with Bill Clinton, from 1993 to 2001,” she said. “There was one year, 2000, with 1,150,906 Mexicans deported.”
Sheinbaum then pointed to the term of U.S. President Barack Obama, who deported 601,356 Mexicans in his first year. During Trump’s second term, Mexico has only seen 86,017 deportations.
“We have to say that there are fewer migrants entering,”

Pres. Trump doubled the number of student visas for Chinese students who wish to attend American colleges and universities, very often taking seats STEM at our most elite universities. I have supported Trump throughout the last 10 years but am troubled by this agreement.
