Tom Cotton suggests Chinese students shouldn't be allowed to study sciences in the US
Fox News ^ | Sunday, April 26 2020 | Gregg Re

Posted on 04/27/2020 2:58:01 AM PDT by fluorescence

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.

I agree. No good is coming from this program.

That’s right, they shouldn’t.

They created the virus and then intentionally allowed it to be releases to the rest of the world while at the same time coring the personal safety equipment market.

Can you learn anything about Shakespeare from a US university English department these days? Outside of a few places like Hillsdale College? Serious question. I thought they’d all gone insane on Leftist critical theory, race and gender grievance studies, etc.

That said, I’m glad someone is talking some sense.

Unfortunately, our media will not allow an honest discussion about China. They have too much invested there. This is a huge problem.

It isn’t just about training competitors. There is espionage and buying influence with ChiCom money. Collusion.

Recall the massive media and NBA outrage last year over a general manager’s support for the Hong Kong protesters.

We shouldn’t let any Chinese into the country for anything.

What about Chinese professors? Half the STEM professors in the US are Chinese (the other half are Indian). The Chinese professors do research paid for by the US universities, and then the Chinese professors send the results back to China.

Looks like you had a wee 'nip of the bottle while posting that.

Tom Cotton is 1000% right about this. And it’s a scandal that countless slots at America’s top colleges are filled with the scions of the ChiCom elite. It should change, but it won’t change. Why? $$$ The ChiCom brats pay full freight and are thus cash cows.

"Limit them to gender studies."

Better yet, send the gender studies faculty to China.

These students send our intellectual property back to China and they take places in American Universities that should go to Americans.

I seem to remember Rush used to say, the best way to screw up our enemies, like China, is to export liberalism (radical feminism) to them. 👍

Anybody have a link to that thread on Hillary emails being sent to a foreign [Chinese as I recall] company office in DC in May 2016?
