Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., told Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures" that it was a "scandal" that the United States has trained some Chinese nationals to "go back to China to compete for our jobs, to take our business, and ultimately to steal our property and design weapons and other devices that can be used against the American people."
Cotton, who has vowed that China will "pay" for what he has called its deliberate choice to unleash the coronavirus on the world, went on to say that the U.S. should take a "hard look at the visas" awarded to Chinese nationals.
"If Chinese students want to come here and study Shakespeare and the Federalist Papers, that's what they need to learn from America," Cotton said. "They don't need to learn quantum computing and artificial intelligence from America."
Left-wing commenators quickly accused Cotton of racism, and noted that Shakespeare was not an American.

To nuke or not to nuke. That is the question.
The chinese and chicom policy is horrific for foreigners.
Straw man argument. Cotton did not say Shakespeare was American. He was referring to Chinese students benefitting from studying western literature.
Kick their “students” and their poisonous products out of America.
Why do you suppose it is that most Cubans who escaped Castro’s Cuba are pro-American while most Chinese students, professors and businessmen are strongly pro-China and anti-American? They’ve seen the same abuses and atrocities.
Because they are still in the employ of China and are expected to be spies and steal technology while they are here. Get. Them. Out!
Really? Pick a top engineering school in the US and look at the faculty.
I concur!!
Yeah, because that has anything at all to do with what Cotton is advocating. Lefties might as well toss in the argument that ice cream doesn't have bones.
I predict that will last as long as "Never Forget!" after 9/11. Not only did we forget, we gave those animals control of Minnesota. And now they're blaring their anthem in Minneapolis five times a day.
I doubt the chinese will pay anything representative of their crimes.
They just send spies, no matter what they study, their target will remain the same. Stop all student visas
I think Trump would be able to make this happen, assuming he’s re-elected in November.
I used to think he’d be a shoo-in but now I’m not so sure. The RATs hate him already, and forever. I’m seeing some supporters falling away for attacking GOP govs, and taking strict orders from blatant liberals posing as doctors who are really politicians.
He needs to take charge, bone up on the Constitution, and restore his base. We can’t afford losing to a Democrat. We’re too fragile right now.
“Because they are still in the employ of China and are expected to be spies and steal technology while they are here. Get. Them. Out!”
Here is a first person testimonial. Mine. I am retired from working at a major IL University (UIC). I now live in FL, not IL, thank goodness as Gov. Pricker reigns supreme in his IL Democrat wonderland. I worked directly for the Head of the Math Dept. at UIC, located right beside the heart of the City.
We had professors of many nationalities from all over the world. The mostly all liberal professors in our Dept. loved hiring Mathematicians from other countries over hiring Mathematicians from our own Country. Chinese students and professors seeking employment in the U.S. naturally navigated to the Sciences because they could steal our intellectual property and mathematical research and ferry this information back to China. They are almost all spies for China. One professor in particular I just knew was tied into the Chinese gov’t and he was one of our more senior profs. They get permanent resident Green Cards, but seldom become actual American citizens. He was like a traveling ping pong ball between Chicago where UIC is located, and China. Reporting back to his true masters in Beijing.
As an aside, many Chinese students also choose primarily the Sciences as vocations because so many of them speak the English language so poorly. Language is less important in the Sciences where you deal with number theory, experiments, projects, etc. Chinatown in Chicago was a 10 minute spit away from the UIC campus, thus creating a huge pool of Chinese students seeking out their education at UIC.
In our Math Dept. there were large numbers of Chinese graduate students, and it was the same in all of the Science Dept’s, soft and hard. Biology, Statistics, Chemistry, Robotics, Computers, Engineering, Medicine, you name it, the Chinese were studying it, and you better believe many of them were being subsidized in their educations by money from the Chinese gov’t. The enemy within.
I might add that the Sciences were also very attractive to students from the Middle East. Lots of students from Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc. Our American Universities are an unwatched and dangerous pot of foreign students who pay the hard cash that Universities love, paying full freight, and also getting grants, loans, and funding at the expense of our own American students. Asians are considered minorities, and they, foreign or otherwise, along with Blacks and Hispanics from the U.S. and any country are given preference over Whites. I know this firsthand.
Too many of our major Universities today are cesspools of liberal ideology and foreign influence from those that do not have U.S. interests in mind. These Universities need to be cleaned out and shaped up big time; I ought to know; I worked amongst the ideological enemy at a large one for many years.
These students were sent here to infect us in Jan and then
quietly chartered back in March to China.
Mission accomplished .
Every Chinese has a CCP interview before leaving and some given orders
.
No one can leave for overseas without CCP approval .
The CCP infected us on purpose .
We need to destroy them .
Correct.
Get them all out of here.
Problem is, they show up and they pay cash.
Lots of cash, not just tuition and books. We're talking "endowment" here.
What kind of way is it to run a University and turn away perfectly good cash money? /s
Bump for Tom Cotton, one of the few unabashedly pro-American Senators we have.
“Left-wing commenators quickly accused Cotton of racism, and noted that Shakespeare was not an American.”
And these anti-American snipers present the contrast. They are fellow travelers to the ChiComs.
Seems like Sen. Cotton might have a plan in the making here; restricting more students from China here & making China pay for some of this grief we’ve endured. How about letting them pay for everything this will add to our deficit? Chinese college students coming over here are, I’m sure, doing so at the behest of their corrupt government.
So STEM for Chinese. Restrict them to black studies and gender studies to waste their money on.
No objection from me.
WOW !!!

If the Chinese are kicked out of US schools, funding for most research centers is going to dry up.
They are deeply embedded in this country. They own many major programs.
