A House Republican has told Newsweek why she is introducing new legislation which would deport any foreign national charged with a crime at "pro-terrorism or antisemitic rallies" anywhere in the United States.
Rep. Beth Van Duyne, from Texas, who has sponsored a proposed amendment to immigration laws, said legislative change is needed due to pro-Palestinian demonstrations on American campuses which she claimed had promoted "violence" and "extremism" with "college after college not responding."
Van Duyne said she decided to introduce her bill after "seeing videos over and over and over again on college campuses where we're seeing an uprising and it just seems to be a growing effort to just push hate, violence, extremism and we just saw college after college not responding."
"Too many colleges have become breeding grounds for violent Marxist hatred for America and our allies, and we shouldn't be putting up with that. We need to send a strong message that their lawless behavior will not be tolerated," she told Newsweek.
"It's time that we deal swiftly and I think decisively for those that come to our amazing country and they incite hatred for America, hatred for the Jewish people, and they despicably demand support for Hamas terrorism which inflicted the worst loss of Jewish life since the Holocaust."
Over the past few weeks activists have set up protest camps on campuses across the U.S., including Columbia University, the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and New York University, all three of which have since been cleared by police.
Participants claim they are peacefully protesting against the ongoing Israeli military operation in Gaza but some Jewish students claim they have faced violence and intimidation, sparking condemnation from the White House.
Does this apply to Nazis?
Does this apply to Nazis?Why would Republicans want to deport their own voters?
Trump will deport all muslims labeling them anti-semites. This is just a glimpse into what is to come if Trump wins. Remember he literally had a muslim ban in 2017.He's already flat-out stated he'll reinstate the muslim ban too.

MarxistTake a shot
since the HolocaustI wonder if the folks that dislike certain actions being called genocidal will also take offense to this.
Does this apply to Nazis?No. It will only apply to anybody who doesn't 100% support Israel with the intent of getting anybody who doesn't agree with them out of the country, citizenship or being born here be damned. Just like they want with the squad.
lolAlways makes me roll my eyes. They wouldn't know a Marxist if they seized the means of production out right out from under them.
Does this apply to Republicans?Obviously not.
