Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed on Wednesday that the Trump administration plans to begin a sweeping effort to cancel visas issued to certain Chinese students.
According to Rubio, the initiative will focus on Chinese nationals involved in sensitive academic areas or with ties to the Chinese Communist Party. These individuals will face visa revocations under a broad campaign led by the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security.
“Under President Trump’s leadership, the US State Department will work with the Department of Homeland Security to aggressively revoke visas for Chinese students, including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields,” Rubio said in a statement.

A federal court delivered a major setback to President Trump’s sweeping tariff initiative on Wednesday, ruling that he had gone beyond the powers granted to him in pushing forward one of his hallmark economic strategies.
The Court of International Trade, based in Manhattan and composed of a three-judge panel, strongly criticized Trump’s tariffs targeting a wide range of foreign nations, stating that his actions were “contrary to law.” Trump had relied on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to justify his actions, claiming that it gave him the authority to unilaterally impose tariffs.

President Donald Trump stated on Wednesday that the coming days will determine whether Russian President Vladimir Putin is truly engaging in meaningful talks to resolve the ongoing war in Ukraine—or merely stalling for time.
Following the swearing-in ceremony for Jeanine Pirro as interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, which took place in the Oval Office, Trump took a few moments to speak with members of the press.

A Mexican national residing unlawfully in the United States has been apprehended by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following threats he allegedly made to assassinate President Donald Trump.
On Wednesday, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem confirmed that ICE agents detained 54-year-old Ramon Morales-Reyes on May 22, after he allegedly made direct threats against the president’s life.
Authorities said that one day prior to his arrest, Morales-Reyes approached an intelligence officer and delivered a handwritten letter containing a violent threat targeting Trump and referencing an intent to leave the country afterward.
