"Those who come here on student visas are more likely not to go home...are more likely to violate the terms of their visa and stay on illegally."

- @JessicaV_CIS

Read the report: cis.org/Vaughan/Foreig…
@JessicaV_CIS China leads the list in 2018 with almost 13,000 people who overstayed their visas in the student and exchange visitor category.

Report: cis.org/Vaughan/Foreig… Table: Student and Exchange Visitor Overstay Statistics by Sending Country
@JessicaV_CIS Overstays from countries of concern between 2016 -2018:

- China 19,505
- Iran 730
- Saudi Arabia 4,223
- Afghanistan 229
- Iraq 747
- Somalia 28
- Sudan 182

Report: cis.org/Vaughan/Foreig…
@JessicaV_CIS ICE removed just over 400 students between 2016 and 2018, this is a tiny share of the huge population of a million foreign students, and tens of thousands of overstays.

According to advocacy groups representing the Big Tech employers and their guestworkers, tomorrow the Senate will consider a bill that would dramatically change our system for awarding employment green cards.

cis.org/Vaughan/Senate…
The bill is the Fairness for High Skilled Immigrants Act (#S386).

It eliminates the per-country cap, which meters issuance of green cards so that they are distributed to applicants from all countrie.

cis.org/Vaughan/Senate…
Sources tell us that an actual vote is highly unlikely; instead, a unanimous consent request from a senator is more likely, which allows them to bypass the committee process, hearings, amendments, and, most importantly, a public debate. #S386

Am I allowed to be outraged by this, or does that make me "antisemitic" ?

- Video of a Palestinian child being assaulted by Israeli police this morning.
By @syedakif17

Isreali goons dressed in uniforms violating basic human rights of Palestinians 24/7.

Constitution of Israel is based on Talmud where Goyims have no rights.

If a Zionist kill anyone, he's not to be punished, he's owns gentiles.

MORE BAKER TRANSCRIPTS, not leaked to the NYT's this time so they can spin it. Epoch has got them!

LOOK OUT PEOPLE it's another bombshell report from @themarketswork about more revelations from the transcripts of former FBI General Counsel James Baker's Congressional testimony!
Highlights as I read this:

Baker *affirmed* to Congressional Oversight that Hillary Clinton should have been charged for mishandling/exposing classified information.

Here's a short thread (20 tweets Ha!) on why I ended up in Keith, Moray from #Norwich in Norfolk & why I wouldn't live in any other nation. This is about about how #Scotland became my home because of love & how this led to support for independence & #SNPOrganiser for Keith 1/20
For context - towards the end of 2014 I came out of a mentally & emotionally exhausting long distance relationship w/ an American, I had just started a degree in Computer Science @uniofeastanglia & found myself content in my own company & 'aloneness' .. 2/20
Scrolling my @tumblr blog, I came across a blog that I found interesting. in 1 post Mr McDonald had written about jumping some stairs in his flat, smashing his head on a door frame, and coming too on his floor w/ blood pouring out his skull. I thought it was funny. 3/20

the size and scope of the @ICOnews investigation is impressive. 280+ individuals, 170+ organizations, major social media platforms, political parties, analytics firms, data brokers...

no one leaves home unless home chases you
fire under feet
hot blood in your belly
it’s not something you ever thought of doing
until the blade burnt threats into
your neck
and even then you carried the anthem under
your breath

#home #warsanshire #poems
#WhereAreTheChildren
only tearing up your passport in an airport toilets
sobbing as each mouthful of paper
made it clear that you wouldn’t be going back.

you have to understand,
that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
no one burns their palms
under trains
beneath carriages
no one spends days and nights in the stomach of a truck
feeding on newspaper unless the miles travelled
means something more than journey.
no one crawls under fences
no one wants to be beaten
pitied
