00:00What about students who are deported for protesting?

00:04For example, as we've seen in recent months, protests in universities across the United States,

00:09people with banners, flags, taking to the streets because of the war in Gaza.

00:15They haven't committed a crime.

00:18Is America telling the world that students who come to America can no longer take part in protests?

00:24They're not regular students. They're not American citizens.

00:27They don't have the First Amendment right like everyone else.

00:31They are here to study, not to incite violence inside our homeland.

00:36But is protesting inciting violence or taking part in a protest?

00:40It's not just protesting. They were burning down things and they were inciting violence.

00:46In campuses, we have protests in campuses all the time. This was different.

00:52So when you do that, when you come to the United States from any nation, it doesn't matter where you're coming from,

01:00and your goal and your visa is to come here to study whatever you've come here to study for,

01:08then that's what you're supposed to do.

01:10And if you get a regular visa afterwards, which most students do, become citizens and all of that, it's great.

01:18We want people to come here the right way. We want people to come to our, we want the best and the brightest to be here.
