Team Trump has been busy celebrating its many successes on this, the 100th day of his term. Administration officials are touting their success at closing the border, repatriating criminal gangbangers to their home countries, lowering inflation, cutting waste and fraud with DOGE, and more.
And on Tuesday, a new report indicates that the State Department has revoked the visas of over 4,000 international students. Now, you know the Democrats and the media will react with tears and predictable outrage, but should we feel sorry for these poor, innocent young people who were just trying to get an education?
Nope:
The Trump administration has revoked the visas of 4,000 foreign students in its first 100 days — the bulk of which have committed crimes in the US including arson, assault and robbery, The Post has learned.
More than 90% of the rogue students who saw their visas nixed had committed crimes such as arson, wildlife and human trafficking, child endangerment, domestic abuse, DUI and robbery, a senior State Department source told The Post Monday.
More than 500 of them had assault raps.
“They came and they were breaking the law with no consequences,” said the source.
Expect Maryland Dem. Sen. Chris Van Hollen to soon start protesting for the immediate renewal of their visas.

Now, nobody is suggesting that all international students are essentially evil and not welcome here; that’s not the case. Many are law-abiding people who contribute to our society. That doesn’t mean everyone automatically has the right to stay here, though, as many Democrats seem to suggest. If you break the law, it’s time for a one-way ticket outta here.
Meanwhile, some lawmakers are concerned about potential spies or even a spy ring abusing our process for espionage.
300,000 Chinese nationals are here on student visa RIGHT NOW...and the CCP is exploiting this generosity for espionage.

This poses a massive threat to national security and intellectual property. A very important question from @elaadeliahu in today's press briefing! pic.twitter.com/U90yhv4yM1
Utah Sen. Mike Lee wrote on X Monday:
Would you shed a tear if the U.S. government pushed pause on student visas for a while—at least until we get the Chinese spy-network problem under control?
The Trump team isn’t kicking out international students for jaywalking or littering; they’re dealing with people who have committed major infractions:
"There were cases like where it was not a serious thing, like littering, or somebody had charges that were dropped, where we didn’t revoke those. Because it should be a serious matter,” said the source.
The thousands of students, most of whom hail from Asia and the Middle East, were swiftly notified that the State Department had stripped them of their status in the US.
Some have already departed on their own while others will soon be rounded up by immigration agents as part of Trump’s mass deportation agenda.
As Secretary of State Marco Rubio has pointed out, it’s a privilege for non-citizens to be in this country—not a right. Under this administration, if you abuse our system, you might want to make travel plans.
