Liu Lijun, a Chinese graduate student at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), has reportedly had her student visa revoked after organizing pro-Palestine rallies on campus.
Liu was arrested in May 2024 during protests related to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, which began on October 7, 2023.
According to the Telegraph India, the revocation of Liu’s visa follows an executive order signed by U.S. President Donald Trump, which aims to address antisemitism in response to the conflict. The order focuses on what the Trump administration has described as a rise in antisemitism across U.S. campuses and communities. One key provision of the order threatens to cancel visas for international students involved in pro-Palestinian activism, particularly those with ties to Hamas.
Liu’s case is one of the first instances of visa revocation under the new policy. The executive order directs federal agencies, including Education, State, and Homeland Security, to develop recommendations on how to monitor and report the activities of foreign students and staff involved in such protests. Additionally, these agencies are required to provide the White House with recommendations within 60 days on the legal tools available to combat antisemitism.
Liu was among hundreds of UCLA students participating in protests against Israel’s military actions in Gaza. The protests escalated in early May 2024 when law enforcement raided a solidarity encampment where nearly 400 demonstrators had gathered. According to protest organizers, over 100 people were injured in the raid, with some requiring hospital treatment. Police used flash-bangs and batons to disperse the crowd.

Has Eric Swallwell’s security clearance ever been reviewed, since he was enrolled in that Chinese exercise program with his personal trainer, Fang Fang?

Gee, I wonder why a Chi-Com student would want to cause riots and disrupt classes in the US.
Can any of you come up with any explanation?
(The issue is never the issue. The issue is ALWAYS the revolution)
Now this will hurt the little feefees of those who just love sucking up to the Chi-Coms. I don't care.

The situation in Indian media and politics has some complications. Apparently the Muslims made sure they had oversized influence over the culture and media despite their minority numbers. This also applies to the Congress Party. Current party in power is BJP, a pro-Hindu party. Opindia.com complained about major Indian media running cover for the recent massacre of Hindus in next door Bangladesh. Hinduexistence.org also covers news from India from a pro-Hindu perspective. It would be helpful if some Indians could inform us with certainty what the media/cultural situation is there.

Meant to add, the evil CCP is flooding in fentanyl to harm, remove, disable and replace an entire generation of young military age and working Americans. Also flooding in their military aged invaders.
They are at actively war with the USA, we are asleep.

The CCP would execute her if she pulled that kind of crap in China.
But, of course, the CCP is probably totally fine with her fomenting unrest in America. They may even have encouraged her.

“They may even have encouraged her.”
Or she’s a PLA officer intentionally SENT here.

Had a girlfriend going into a one year masters. Graded papers for a meager income.
She bailed and I never blamed her.

“hundred-of-thousands chicom agents on our campuses and/or in our research laboratories is LONG overdue.”
Amen...Prof. Hanson has been singing that tune for a long time now. He says at a minimum we ought to 1) heavily tax university endowments and 2) demand 1:1 for foreign students studying here and US students studying there.
