At the center of the clash was Rumeysa Ozturk, a Turkish national and former University of Massachusetts student who penned a pro-Hamas op-ed in which she accused Israel of committing "genocide" in Gaza and demanded American universities divest from theUSally. That op-ed triggered the revocation of her student visa—something Jayapal claimed was unconstitutional.

"Where in the Constitution does it say that the Secretary of State can override the First Amendment protections of free speech?" she asked. "Is there a footnote that I missed somewhere?"

"There is no constitutional right to a student visa," Rubio explained.

"She was a guest in the United States on a student visa," Rubio continued. "No one is entitled to a student visa. We deny visas every day, and we will revoke and consider revoking visas."

Jayapal, ever eager to play the victimhood card, jumped in with her rehearsed outrage: "You revoked her student visa based on an op-ed, which trumps the supreme law of the land, which is the Constitution."

Rubio fired right back. "If someone is coming here to stir up problems on our campuses, we're going to revoke their visa."

Jayapal, flustered but determined, insisted, "She didn't do any of that. She wrote an op-ed... and I'm talking to you about her particular case."

"That's her lawyer's claims and your claims," Rubio shot back. "Those are not the facts."

"You revoked her student visa because she wrote an op-ed," she accused.

Rubio doubled down without blinking.

"Yes, proudly," he said. "And we're going to do more of them. We are going to revoke the visa of anyone who's in the country as a guest who's here to stir up trouble."... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
