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.

Tom Cotton is right, but I think he and Josh Hawley and Crenshaw are all also throwing a feint away from the Deep State and Big Pharma operatives who are in on this operation with China.
The CIA has been all too successful in getting its active assets into Congress. Cotton is a massive neocon and he well fits the cookie cutter resume of Mayor Pete, for example. Harvard Law grad who strangely goes for a commission in the military and spends a bit of time in Baghdad before going into politics. Then is promoted as a possible Trump pick to head the CIA.
Josh Hawley is a darling of the Never Trumpers. Yale Law. Law clerk for John Roberts. Man in a hurry—spent less than a year as AG before jumping in for Senate.
Dan Crenshaw. Former Seal, heavily backed by Tom Cotton in his run for congress while still in his early 30s. As another neocon, part of a move in Congress to try to stop Trump from withdrawing troops from Syria.
No Chinese citizen comes to the United States, regardless of the stated reason for their visit, without the permission of the Chinese (CCP) government. That permission is contingent upon loyalty to the Chinese (CCP) government. One could reasonably conclude that they’re all spies to one degree or another.
The Chinese work in our aerospace companies. Boeing, Lockheed, Northrop, Raytheon, Rockwell, and all their suppliers are loaded with Chinese and Indians. The intellectual property theft is completely uncontrolled.
Rice University would lose half their student body.
You are so right! I also worked in a major state university as a librarian in the early 90s. In the name of affirmative action the university hired a Chinese national as the systems librarian. He was a computer expert but that was all he could do. His English skills were very poor. Within a few weeks of his hire, he broke through the security of the university’s mainframe. This was a research university. Heaven only knows what he did with what he found there.
He also rigged the computer in the office I shared with him so he could work with it overnight from home. This was in the infancy of the internet. He told me to never turn off the computer when I left the office in the evening, that he needed it for his “work.” He came and went from the U.S. to the Peoples’ Republic over the summer. There apparently were no restrictions on his travel. I began to get suspicious of him. I read that only high-ranking Party members were allowed that freedom of travel, and that most of the Chinese “students” and faculty in this country were expected to spy for the regime. In one of his trips back home, he took his university laptop with him. Who knows what he had downloaded onto it. And, yes, he was working using a green card and student visa and had graduated from a university in the U.S. studying information science here on an American scholarship.
Nobody at the university watched him. He once showed us photographs he had taken in China, bragging to us about its modern department stores and other developments. One photograph showed him in a restaurant with friends where a large portrait of Mao hung on the wall. He said it was a “retro” restaurant. Yeah, right.
Yeah really.
Here is the faculty directory for Cal-Poly Engineering...only two or three Chinese names listed.
“...throwing a feint away from the Deep State and Big Pharma operatives who are in on this operation with China.”
Exactly right!
Every single one of them should have a background investigation done on them, and if they are in any way connected to the Chinese military or government, they should be immediately deported. I know, that would be 99 percent of then, but that’s fine. Let China educate their own people.
CUT THEM OFF from the U.S.A.
And once more Tom Cotton is correct.
Somebody should have thought of this years ago.
It’s much too late to stop China, or any other country from using science and technology taught here against us.
It sounds like a plot out of a James Bond movie. The only thing we haven’t got is James Bond.
350,000 Chinese ‘students’ blocking 350,000 American students from attending college. This may be a good thing as the Americans will not be brainwashed.
Many of the professors and Chinese students were agents, a couple of the grad students openly, proudly admitting it. They were not students at all. They had been math professors back in China and knew the subject matter inside and out. That freed them up from having to put in long hours studying in order to keep their grades up and let them spend most of their time working at their real job spying for China and stealing intellectual property.
