BREAKING: The Trump administration has rescinded a rule that would have forced international students to leave the country if their colleges hold classes online this fall. The administration was sued over the new policy by Harvard and MIT.

FILE - In this Aug. 13, 2019, file photo, pedestrians walk through the gates of Harvard Yard at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass. Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday, July 8, 2020, challenging the Trump administration's decision to bar international students from staying in the U.S. if they take classes entirely online this fall.

A lawyer representing the Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said only that the judge’s characterization was correct. Immigration officials issued the policy last week, reversing earlier guidance from March 13 telling colleges that limits around online education would be suspended during the pandemic. University leaders believed the rule was part of President Donald Trump’s effort to pressure the nation’s schools and colleges to reopen this fall even as new virus cases rise.

The review of the Presidential proclamation that bans au pairs is coming up. The continuation of cultural exchange programs is crucial in our efforts to provide peace and global understanding. Please help give this the attention it deserves! ExchangesMatter SaveJ1

Does Trump ever consider the consequence when he dreams up rules? Sure, he hate all ‘foreigners’, but the effect on our local and state communities would have been a financial disaster. We love our international students!

DePaulU To bad

Are they accountable if those students are spies or terrorist ?

It should never have been put in place!!!! They're just evil!!! Trying to do some damage control to appease their base. Seeings as how they have been horrible with the COVID

Its called negotiations and knowing what is going on to plan and adjust Federal response and monitoring of persons in USA who are not citizens. Why would you want any less? Rescinded doesn't mean wrong. it means we now know the whats and hows of goings on.

You're a misguided irresponsible person

If any illegal or foriegnor can get out of this country as a family they should leave now while you still have a chance. The elite are hungry and ICE 'loses' children almost as bad as child protective services. Self deport as a family while you still can.

My man Trump caved in weird radicals bad for USA sad for everybody

Ridiculous

This is good. Why should they have to leave even if their classes are online. Their money still being taken. Let these kids get their education in peace as long as they not causing any problems.

taylorbass__ Surprise surprise 😜

🤬

Good they should have been sued, making that new order will do nothing but trigger multi race people around the us because that closely resembles the discrimination between black and white people years ago.

I think this is the right move but the damage is already done. For those in that position the animosity and anxiety create it from the possible attempt has already taken place. I detest these types of fear tactics yet I’m not surprised

Yea! A win for the good guys and what’s right. Screw Trump and Stephen Miller.

Please explain why foriegn students attending ONLINE courses need to be in this country! This is utter bullshit!

why congratulate trump for rescinding this rule - he was sued and would've surely lost; saving face only

'Nothing is divine but what is agreeable to reason.' Kant

So, foreign countries hold that much sway that they can deny access to higher education in the U.S. to ~ 1million potential prospects? I thought for sure that this would've won Trump some young voters in November. RealDonaldTrump

Should not have backed down

What Grrreat Achievements The Courts Have Made Against The Trump Admin. Wonderful ‼️💫✨⭐️⭐️🌹💜🌎❤️🗽❣️🔥 America Is Shining Through-‼️🗽⭐️✨💜💫🔥🌟🌎👀

RussiaHack THIS IS CRAZY YOU GUYS NEED TO COVER THIS

Trump created this mess about time he owned up to his mistake

Harvard is in China’s pocket. Sooner or later, it will lose its prestige.

And all it took was for 19 people to stand up to the BULLY. We need more of that for all the insane things he keeps trying to do or doesn't do that he should be.

Wetbacks can swim home after graduation.

Good

This dude is unfucking real! It just baffles me that people who weren't actually racist voted for him. I knew he would be horrible bt he has gone beyond the realm of insanity. And what's worse is his worshippers fall right behind him with his alternate reality,which is sad

DON'T CARE IF ANY INTERNATIONAL STUDENT EVER STUDIES IN THE U.S. AGAIN. TO MUCH $$$ & TO MUCH TROUBLE!!

Doesn’t trump get tired of walking backwards? He has enough trouble walking forward all by himself. I wonder if he can walk and chew gum simultaneously!

Trump is an absolute nutter

The President's ideas are so unpopular. Certainly, there is truly deep meaning to that. Please, before he comes up with another idea, get him out of there. He just said, he cut out corruption in mail-in ballots !!! (😕😕) He fixes things that aren't even broken.

All Americans should stand behind a president that cares about the students and their future opportunity before any other country. Let’s make sure our youth have not been forsaken. Universities today onky care about the bottom line not our kids!

TOO BAD😲UNQUARANTINED EMIGRATION is a VIOLATION=CRIME against: 1)God's Law =NO COVETING, stealing/lying 2)International 1000AD 'Plague Law' HEALTH CODE =🚫🌎EMIGRATION w/o☣QUARANTINE☣ 3)US IMMIGRATION =EARN🇺🇸GENERATIONAL citizenship w/Fed RECORD of🇺🇸OATH of CITIZENSHIP to VOTE

😂🤣 The idiot and his was being sued for that. 😂🤣 what a tool.

Trump is a disgusting, disgrace to this country and every American who has an OUNCE of morals.

That’s to bad

No if our students can’t go to college then the students from out of country should have to go home

Yeah no shiz. Y’all up against Harvard Law... that educated several US presidents

The Trump administration = The TRASH administration

We can defeat Trump only if we take action just as Harvard and MIT did through the courts. We must also take action in the voting booth this November. Please, everyone show up at the polls, no matter how Republicans try to stop you, and vote Trump out of office. DefeatTrump2020

Wait, but I thought Trump didn't like foreigners?🤔

Good !

They know what fights to pick.

Desperate, dirty politics from the Office of the President! Great job putting this administration in power, America!

Thanks God for lawsuits... Orange-virus only understands the force...

Best President ❤️🇺🇸

Honestly. Thank goodness. How ridiculous was this in the first place. We need to pull together in these times not pull each other down. Good job on this ruling!

DanRather all things he does to correct his past decisions is for one purpose= VOTES. IF he get's back in, all his 'corrections' will go by the way side! He will only get worse and ALL Americans will suffer, and ALL ENVIRONENTAL/WILDLIFE WILL BE DESTROYED!

A fool and his vengeance on students is set right. Aren’t these students the merit based immigrate your are looking for?

Why? The new rule made perfect sense. If schools are closed for pandemic, why would we import more potential carriers just to have them sit an apartment here when they could be doing the same from their own home?

realDonaldTrump is a cut thrice, measure once kinda guy. It’s as if he doesn’t know what he’s talking about 75% of the time and doesn’t remember what he’s said 3/4 of the time. GOPLeader KellyannePolls seanhannity

Now, potential students would lose confidence, thinking this decision is for political reason and could be temporary and hence be looking for admission in the UK or other European countries. Profits and loses, thinking before leaping is very vital.

'Everything That Trump Touches Dies,' isn't only an excellent book title. But this time, we can cheer him on realDonaldTrump as he continues to kill his reelection chances by his own Incompetence, Bigotry, and Public Unraveling. OneandDone

Thank goodness

Good. One less ahole move on the board. Many many many many many... more to go.

Everything this administration does is on the fly! Waste of money and time. GOP idiots!

Yet another big fat L for the orange clown in office. Will he say he was tremendously successful in this endeavor as well?

PDKMom Making and rescinding so many “rules” makes Trump look weak and America look ridiculous.

That’s great I wish the University will show the same effort for the kids who are being caged in our Mexican and united state borders these people only defend their money foreign students bring in a lot of revenue.

Why were they threatened in the first place, just to spite, that is how Trump rolls, he gets pissed and he threatens someone or something!

So universities sued the Federal Government to demand special treatment. Applying the standard was not absurd. They demanded an exception to the rule and it was granted. The mistake would be to pile on and make it as though there’s still a fight to be picked.

Another dumb ass administration decision reversed! Dam, hard lesson are hard to swallow! realDonaldTrump

What a stupid bunch of people in that administration. They thought that was a good idea initially.

Justice Served!!. Wonderful!!!...

Awesome! It was a xenophobic policy...another of Trump’s senseless, unnecessarily cruel decisions and there have been many

I have to wonder WHY we have so many international students here to begin with? Why not concentrate on educating Americans?

Worth your time:

Good for Harvard! 💚💚💚💚💚🖖

Does this mean anyone who is enrolled at the U of Phoenix can now get a student visa?

Good he did the right thing

Thank you Harvard and MIT!

No, it was declared illegal by a judge.

Never should have done this in the first place!!!

Some Good news!

How could this lawsuit even hold up in court the Trump Administration was following the law by making the students go home if they didn't attend classes in person this is another b******* leftist extremist violation of our Law and Order

Answer to prayer for the international students.

WELL THAT SUCKS ! A million a year , EVERY year ! And how many of them are having to go into a lifetime of debt to be there ! This is SOCIALIST BACK DOOR POLITICS that will be dealt with after TRUMP2020LANDSLIDE ! They're gonna let those students VOTE DEMOCRAT !

Trump is doing what Trump does best, THE ART OF THE DEAL. He will start inflating his value with approvals on policies he knows can get him maximum votes, including minorities, then he will reverse them all if he wins a second term. How can anyone trust the arts of the con?

These students that are here to take classes SHOULD be sent back to their country if they aren’t actually in classes. They can do remote learning from their home countries. I wish the President had not backed off this judgement. 🤯

Beautiful news. Keep fighting evil. Education should be for all.

Why do Black lilke to be ' Call'. 'Africa Black' ? When I came to the 'USA' I came to a Black-Lad (Man) He told me he was a 'Africa-Black' I told him tell about 'Africa' ! The Lad would Not tell me about 'Africa' 🇬🇧 15/7/20 🇨🇦🇺🇸

So they got the headline out to the gold ol boy voting base who doesn't listen for more than 5 words and then bowed down in court. This administration is like watching virgins fuck

The people are on crack. There's no other explanation. They on crack!!

NBCPhiladelphia ABC6 CBSPhilly 69News FOX29philly TelemundoNews CNN ABC NYTIMES WASHINGTONPOST MSNBC CBSNEWS FOXNEWS BBCWorld Reuters It was wrong, cruel, stupid and prejudice for Trump to force that. In the first place. Everyone is suffering Covid together!

Yay the students get to stay!!

They should have to leave, they can go to to school online in their own Country, they are here to put their asses in seats, not just hang out?

nistula This is power of people

This i do not agree

He definitely didn’t actually attend college like a real person. He obviously paid someone to take his tests and didn’t have any pressures in school.

Another waste of time from Trump&Co. when they could and should have been concentrating of combatting COVID19us LiarInChief RacistInChief GrifterInChief DementiaDon 25thAmendmentNow

As Kenny Rogers once sang, “you’ve got to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em.” 😎

margaretjud149 Another distraction, another day!

Money, money it’s the only thing college’s are really about

DanRather The ONLY thing this Administration understands is money. That, and bad publicity in an election year. TheResistance

AWorldOutOfMind ...for now.

This is BS. They can go home. Period

I'll believe it, when I see it! Don't watch what they say, WATCH WHAT THEY DO!!!!

Just keep Chinese students off the list until we can affirm they aren’t working with their communist government like Some of our large corporations are. Liberty is PRICELESS- to sell out is treason!

rose2art Apparently, Donnie has many foreign “friends” with kids that need to go to college. I think TraitorTrump must owe a huge debt to the Saudis. Notice - this does not apply to all foreign students.

Impeach Trump EVERY DAY from now until November. There's plenty of justification.

Nice

Back to back cave ins. Not looking too good there Don.

NEVER forget that they attempted to do this, and WOULD HAVE done it if not for the lawsuit by Harvard and MIT. EnemyOfThePeople AmericaOrTrump VoteHimOut

Hallelujah

Antone_MN They were going to lose this lawsuit at the federal level plain and simple. Don't be amazed by their rescinding this foolishness about students' education.

In this case, big money is the winner.

Think that was a good decision

So much drama for what? realDonaldTrump

Oh wow, this is such a great victory for the USA

The Trump admin has been ferreting out CCP infiltration of US Universities. They send CCP lieutenants posing as college students; US professors charged. Thread below of Indictments re CCP infiltration of US Univs. Joe Biden: “China is not a threat”

Weak-ass potus knew he was gonna lose this case and turned tail and ran. Good. TrumpFail TrumpFailedAmerica

Knew he couldn't force it! Rascist, uneducated, test cheating, drop out, bone spur sporting Orange Fly hair flippin gobble de gook spouting Frggle Rock livin POUTUS!!!

Quarentine where ever they are should be considered first, mask requirement social distance

Abt time this Admin saw the Light in at least a singularly important matter.

PhillyD SubToOptimus

It wasn't bad enough that our balance of foreign trade was destroyed by trump's agricultural trariffs. The only two things we have left to counter that imbance is education and weapons

Trump do America a favor and resign

What of on-campus jobs and housing for internationals if campuses are closed? Student VISAs only allow some part-time on-campus jobs; otherwise, international students cannot work off campus legally.

Hell yes!

Seeing that Harvard and MIT are supposedly the best schools in America, why hasn't Harvard University found a cure/vaccine for the coronavirus. Why hasn't MIT qualified a few candidates to go personally explore MARS in person?

Chaos agents running rampant in trump’s administration.

It should not be rescinded ,need to go home and come back when schools re open so they can get a quality education. All students need the interaction you receive in Classroom environment.

If they protest -throw them out

Hell no kick your ass out of this country what we get for Obama fund and everything taken out taxpayers money to fund everything about like he funded the Coronavirus we're sick of government funding of everybody else close the doors

Good!

Why do you think the President would WANT to kick out foreign students from Harvard & MIT? Do you think it may have been to 1} STOP the moratorium on US kids 2}stop the tech theft? Do YOU KNOW American students can ONLY go to certain schools? The Ivy league schools quota US kids!

So they cage kids now there using the virus to kill them this administration is guilty of murder

Hot Damn! Hahahahahahaha.... He's fighting oxygen again. The Colleges 'rope-a-adoped' realDonaldTrump and his dumb ass administration. 😅🤣😂 Looking for some Orange faced emojis.

Woo hoo idiot man did not get his way!!!

Crap

The whole idea in itself manifesting was uncalled for

Another back pedal. Next Blowup Barbie will say he didn’t mean what he said in the first place. What ignorami.

Thank you to all those schools that defended international students!!! You are the best!!!

An important loss for the WhiteHouse is important win for public health and global education

In this White House, it's the only period of time that I can think of where it's newsworthy that the administration gets a bump just for doing the right thing. Look how far we've fallen.

That's trump speak for we surrender!

Awful decision.

This is great news for many people. I just wish we didn't have work this hard for our government to act humanely on every issue.

👀

Reading most of these replies I can tell what a bunch of hypocrites a lot of Americans are. When it comes to illegals, you all are like “Just do it the legal way!” These students came the legal way and you all still want them gone 🤦🏻‍♀️ racists.

Shouldn't have done it in the 1st place.

While we were watching Roger Stone Fiasco, look what was being concocted by the administration. Seems like the administration cares for no one unless they make money off them. Period

Just another evil thing he is doing. 😪

Oh you mean some of Epstein's donation acceptors and close buddies spoke up?

bullying works

Why not leave our country? Your home is somewhere else and classes are held on line. Give me one f'kin reason to stay. Asking for a friend 😏

Shot out to Harvard and MIT for fighting for their international students. Just another reason to put on a long list called Reasons to vote 45 out of office.

Distance learning online classes can take place no matter where you live. I think physically taking one class in person should be the goal post for student visas. G-dspeed

It was a not properly thought out, asinine rule. Typical of the Ignoramus in Chief, and his intellectually impotent side kick, Stephen “Hitler” Miller.

We should not be filling at seat s at our best colleges with students from other countries

Harvard & MIT like:

200 universities sued that ass including Harvard. So so happy they didn’t let this sit and filed lawsuits!!

This is good news for a lot of colleges, staff, and students. Many colleges generate significant revenue through these programs.

Okay, So we let the multitalented stay in the United States and continue to steal our knowledge and technology for their father land. The university is the only United States beneficiary. This MUST STOP.

Are you frickin kidding me? They are here to learn ... let them get an education!!!

Another failure

Good! Great news for all international students rn. Don't know why this was even brought up in the first place 🙄 Thanks to Harvard and MIT~

Theyre online, they can take the classes in their home countries

The only reason they did this was because of the lawsuit, not the goodness of their hearts, don't let this fool anyone 🙄

We educate other countries, they use it against us, steal intellectual property and undermine our patriotism. Keep supporting them until one day, its too late and we are no longer a economic and military leader. They wont be kind to you.

Ladies and gentlemen this is what happens when you have a terrible plan

Of course because the big orange creepy had no intention on following through, he never does

And exactly as intended, this stint successfully diverts mass media attention from the dumpster-fire failure of COVID-19 response which continues to run amok through the citizenry. The only thing more lethal is the sheer inexhaustible idiocy of the base illiterates.

We know trump doesn’t know what he’s doing or saying...but damn...isn’t anyone in his administration competent. Don’t they know how to research, checks facts, prior to letting this dingbat open his mouth!

You know he secured spots for the Kushnet children at Harvard. You just know.

Thank you to all the universities and institutions that took action; they can also take action against the rest of the unjust policies pushed by this administration.

Wow! A president totally without a plan. Nothing but racist ideas from Stephen Miller.

We finally have an administration standing up to these elitists colleges that discriminate against American citizens and admit foreign nationals over its citizens that pay taxes! Shame on Harvard and every other school ripping off Americans for years!

Another Trump loss. What makes him think he can do whatever he wants with a signature? He really is trying his hardest to be a dictator.

Close the borders till this is over to hell with politics.

So why have it in the first place?

Good. That was a dumb rule. Giving it the most generous interpretation...what if the school opens back up for live classes in March? These closures are temporary.

The Trump Admin is so stupid. So stupid.

No matter what Trump does, you hate him. Have you guys on the left figured out he isn't listening to you any more for that very reason?

Trump will try any crap he can as long as people let him get away with it! These universities stood up to him and he buckled!

Hopefully China’s students were forced to leave

If any of you thought this was going to see the light of day then you have no idea the kind of money that is involved with Foreign Students for one. 2nd it’s just one more thing down the hole that leads to the beginning of the end🤷🏿‍♂️ keep watching more dumb things to come soon.

and unlike his lawsuits, these have merit.

zeejasminee

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

No other culture hands foreigners the opportunity to simply walk in and take over. This is the height of treachery. They cannot possibly be that stupid.

realDonaldTrump a disgrace towards America

Foreign students taking physical places at universities, drive up $, edge us out & replace us in jobs in corporations we built & use them to fast track into control positions in society. It invites a coup & corruption. Trump is right & guess who's pulled levers of power, again.

Thank god 🙌🏼

Mo Gaslighting from The Putzrident Of The Divided States

wouldnt be cheaper for students 🤔

He forgot that his beloved Europeans are technically foreigners too

Thank god he was forced to...

We Want REIMBURSEMENT If The Schools Don’t Open And Stop Paying The Teachers My Tax Dollars If They’re Not Going To Teach....

OH YEAH SUCK IT

That is so cheap they are trying to make international students to put the pressure on colleges to open

Yes Donald. Take on the institutions that train our finest doctors, lawyers and scientists. That should go well for you.

Hold on The Administration can gets Sued WTF?

trump breaks like a twig. so much for the tough negotiator

Thankfully, Barry had graduated already. Imagine where would he go being a citizen on foreign student tuition.

Cruel idea. Who thought this foolishness up?

I've been conditioned to say, 'How horrible of him'. Oh, this is a good thing!

Why don't you print why he resented it

It was obviously brought to Trump's attention that when the international students left, they'd be taking their money with them.😏

So glad some people are FINALLY STANDING UP TO HIS MADNESS AND INSANITY

The Donald took his own advice

This is all about universities receiving full tuition $$$$$$.

Better still. A classic bully. And a stupid one at that.

I find it odd that no one is questioning or asking what was in the agreement. I would keep an eye on things to come. Maybe removing the corrupt in Harvard? Maybe something different. Only time will tell 🕜

Since we know Universites are performing questionable work for the communist Chineses government, we need to have the FBI monitor the both parties for spying.

Trump is a classic coward.

Thank God! I was worried for those fine students who are just trying to get a quality education and aren't trying to hurt anyone.

If all their classes are on line, why do they have to be here?

Am I surprised? No.

tRump has got to be tired of all that winning....lol

He is such a fool ! Glad the schools put pressure on him ! Idiot !

Are we supposed to thank him now after causing so much unnecessary anxiety and mayhem?

Don’t be delusional please. Harvard needs these students like all other schools to stay afloat. Trump cares more about businesses than people. This is for business. Not for people.

If I were a student I would leave anyway, it's not safe in this country. Or they can stay and help protest.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

This was not a new rule. It's been on the books for years. AP please fact check your headlines.

Did Trump actually do something right for once? What kind of alternate universe did I stumble into?

How much did this failed stunt cast tax payers?!

If Trump backed off of this necessary action, it's only because he's got something far more encompassing coming.

Are you people effin kidding me right now bypassing the CDC we're all headed for communism that's exactly what's happening

That’s dumb. If it’s all online, no need for them to stay in the US.

Lmfao

Damn straight! 💙

This administration has no spine when it comes to its core campaign issue.

Yes

Some of the states filed lawsuits too

Good the dump administration sucks

They’ve got no balls as usual. Besides, there’s no way they could have won this one

realDonaldTrump knew that crap couldn't stand!

I agree the students should be able to stay. However, I do find it funny that so many want to come and take advantage of all the great opportunities this country offers while continously putting it down.

Thank fucking Christ

This guy has zero knowledge of international relations. HE NEEDS TO GET OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE.

Wow! No matter what good he does all these blind haters will still find any reason to hate him or say he’s wrong. Baaaaaaaahhhh 🐑

He’s going soft on them, if it had been me I would have given them 14 days to get the f:-ck out, then I would have ICE track them down and deport their asses. They don’t need to be here sucking up tax dollars. deport

FDT4L

Hello Americans. Another of Donald Trump's nocturnal wet dreams bit the dust. Donald Trump is lost in his own viagra induced wet dreams.

Awe how sweet will you look at that. I guess with an Election coming that helped you find a heart. Lol!! ❤️LESSPREZ

Lmao

Of course he did. He always jumps the fun!

Finally! Bunkerbaby is being held accountable for something! And we were concerned about collegiate sports?

I guess Chinese-Virus isn’t as bad as the media is playing it out to be. Why would Liberal universities want thousands of foreigners to stay in the US when they clearly could do classeork from their home. Funny how that works.

Aa-aalright! alright !Alright ... M.M.(Dazed & confused movie)

Why did they even bother, it was clear to anyone with a fucking brain that it wasn’t gonna work out. I’m sure it made a great impression on kids studying here to say “we’re kicking y’all out! oh wait sorry not actually.” Why would they want to work/live here after college now?

Online classes are a true joke

This is great news .

It was another trump distraction. Smh to all media outlets following this.

Too bad they had to be sued to do it, but I'm relieved for the students.

Ha!! Another loss for Trump. He’s on a role.

No doubt Harvard and MIT kicked Trump's fat butt!!

Good, that law was bs

Oh that reelection pressure mounts.

realDonaldTrump ah man. It’s only Tuesday . Thoughts?

I’m glad he decided not to be an asshole for once.

Yes! Part one of the war has been won! Now we need to get Trump to agree in online only classes for K-12! In AZ (where I live) 1 teacher who was sharing a room with 2 others &(all wearing PPE) doing online classes died from COVID-19 & in S.C. a child under 5 yrs. died. Stay safe

RE: What Americans & Canadians DESERVE to know: Greenpeace wants to sell our shares ... fund medical research in SaudiArabia. Harvard 'Scientists' release 'calcium carbonate' to 'fight GlobalWarming'. 🤣 Gram -ve co-infections = 75% of lethal shock (not new MedEd).

Please be nice to these students, and if we’re lucky, they will stay and be our brain gain that is much needed to stay competitive and resilient in these challenging times and beyond!

That’s a damn shame!!!

They had to. Follow the money, international student pay up front.

They are still assholes

i had no idea universities could sue the presidential administration.. how many more sad firsts are they going to go for. can they just stop ruining this country and resign already.

Coward losers!!!

This is another example of Trump starting a fire, then wanting credit for calling the fire brigade when everyone is watching so he can look like a hero.

Trump will now take credit for allowing them to stay and blame Obama for making them leave the country.

The rule proved they don’t want people to come here legally either.

Dear POSPussyGrabber and henchpersons: Chaos, scandal and megalomania AIN'T leadership. You f*ckers spew hate rather than create cogent policies. Meanwhile, you waste precious time and resources. Looking forward to the moment you are gone. Sincerely, Everybody NOT you

He buckled under to $$$$.

The truth is, we win every single time. He throws some hate out, and we handle it. It’s exhausting. November can’t come soon enough.

Do we have to tell him how ignorant he is after every decision in order for him not to blow up the world every day? I am sick of having to tutor this man on his own job. I know you have no qualifications, but I thought you would at least learn as you go.

.......because it was incredibly Stupid. (even on the Trump scale of stupidity)

This was a good decision by the Trump administration to rescind this decision. Will they show humility and admit they were wrong- probably not.

Someone must have shown him the billions of dollars that would be lost to racism.

I love bullying the government into rescinding their awful rules

This was a ridiculous rule to start off with !!!

Smart move.

✊✊🏿✊🏼✊🏽✊🏻✊🏾💚

ICE is sooooo pissed rn 😂. They were foaming at the mouth to get at these kids.

Thank fucking god

mayatcontreras Knew he couldn't win that lawsuit

Here to stay. ✊💕👣🙏😊🇺🇸

OMG, I know so many people who have been waiting for such a decision! So yes, good news!

I'm not sure why anyone needs to be here if they're taking online classes, anyway?

4 more months VoteForBiden 💯

Dude just says shit and then backpedals like crazy. What a Idiot-in-Chief 😂😂 TREA45ON

So fucked up. They can't even leave the US.

There's another thing that happened today that needs to be rescinded.... Trump requiring hospitals to circumvent CDC in reporting Covid 19 data!

Fantastic work Harvard and MIT!

Did you know there are travel agencies that assist travel visas for women in their ninth month of pregnancy in order to have the baby in the United States automatically making the baby a citizen

The fact that this was a consideration exhibits how craven his thinking is.

Good. They spend a lot of money here

DanRather

realDonaldTrump should be deported!

Ryan_Deitsch Uh huh, sure. You watch. They'll deny rights anyway. Don't be fooled.

Good. One less immoral and unethical thing this administration will be able to perpetrate.

That was the fast turn around.

Common sense prevails. It's a shame that it took several lawsuits to bring it about but at least it bring peace of mind to those students.

Well that's a Good thing.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then. He must have accidentally done something right. Pandering for votes maybe?

They had to

Good news like this is so welcome

Forgot about the Russian students

If only realDonaldTrump believed in his own words none of this would have happened.

Must have figured out that it somehow hit ‘em in the wallet

My understanding is it wasn't a 'new' policy but an unusual impact caused by existing rule. Can you clarify, ? Thanks.

Why?

I am glad for the students. But as for Trump, at this point nothing he does would convince me to support him.

It wasn't a 'new' policy; it was law--do your homework. Foreign student visa holders only allowed to take 1 online course--Trump let them do three--the new police was more lenient. Get your facts straight.

Ofcourse!! at the end of the day Trump is a coward. Bullies are cowards and when confronted the bully will backdown. MIT and Harvard called Trump on his billshit

To bad. He needs to defund the liberal universities

😱

Harvard and MIT receive millions of dollars in funding from the federal government and huge tax subsidies. But enroll foreign students at the expense of citizens. I believe poor American kids should fill the seats instead of wealthy elites.

Just another flip flop jerk reaction of hate that came from his heart and not his brain.

This is fantastic news! Glad to hear students get to stay in the US and study at the colleges!

ARBITRARY AND CAPRICIOUS. Sums up this administration.

Aww. He learned that perhaps he could be sued for putting people at risks by placing them on ✈️ and that he and the administration could be sued for labeling people a failure to leave if they chose not to for lawsuits or because there are no planes to take them home! 😅🤣🤣🤣

They have no idea what they just did to our country. Either this is all apart of their plan or this was seriously a bad call.. in so many ways too..

Too bad, that was a good rule

If it's on line they can be anywhere. I guess schools want their 50000 a semester money.

Let’s keep them and throw out the kids in mommy’s basement .

Thank god! Honestly, it was so stupid and ill conceived. Not to mention, just mean.

Why are we allowing foreign students here? They only learn more hatred from these colleges for America and the citizens. Send them home.

The thing with the potus rescind is that we can’t trust tho man unless it’s sing into law without a chance to be revoked

Losing yet again. LoserTrump IdiotInChief TrumpIsALaughingStock TrumpIsANationalDisgrace VoteOutTrump

Sooooo much winning!!!!

Ha fantastic, thank you Harvard and MIT!

who's the Stable Genius now? heWasTheMostStableGeniusThereEverWasUntilMITandHaRvardGaveHImA3Waymirror

They should make an ad of this.

The Administration finally did something right..I'm scared...something is afoot.

It was mit and Harvard together, trump would have lost so badly.

Guess that just goes to show Harvard & MIT really only care about their international students.

There is nothing that this administration can do to 'undo' this process. Anyone who has such malicious intent towards immigrants will never have my vote.

Trump backed down?

They only want it because it’s federal tax dollars they would lose. They don’t care about the student.

Relieved to see that wiser heads prevailed. While we can all cite our favorite foreign student who hated America because of their time here - like Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood radical Sayyid Qutb - the vast majority become lifelong ambassadors for the American way of life.

What about all the students that were not allowed in the U. S. Because they took online classes

What a stupid idea in the first place. In this difficult time, to bring more unnecessary hardtop and misery is unconscienciable.

BREAKING NEWS: realDonaldTrump loses.... again. TrumpGolfsAmericansDie TrumpIsANationalDisgrace maga

Those schools get large $$$$ to have those kids attend. Get a great education and move back to their county and this does this help America, nope.

Please. Do not drink this kool-aid. He’s heart showed how he really feels.

Lol what losers

Good to know that even jackasses in the Trump administration can learn when forced to.

That is a shame. Can we at least cut off any federal funding for the universities?

As a university professor who will be teaching predominantly online this fall, one less thing I'm thankful I don't have to worry about

Fucking jokers

Still clutching my pearls though, since he usually follows up with something equally as cruel or worse.

Yeah!!!!!

Yes!

Ill-formed and bigot-filled rule concoction by Bigot Miller and Bigot Jared. Trump has no CLUE on how to run the administration. He thought it is just watching cable TV, Tweeting and playing Golf.

The international student rule is rescinded because State's and schools spoke the only language realDonaldTrump understands.......lawsuit. He doesn't understand the language of humanity, decency and fairness. internationalstudents tuesdayvibes

Another example of an impulsive action, taken without thinking it through.

It's all a deflection tactic.

trump, the playground bully, pushed someone who pushed back and he ran away like the coward he is!

Legally here? Seems reasonable if just for the economy alone. It’s past time to step up arrrests, deportations of illegals & remove corrupt politicians. Especially Nasty Congress but the Senate too. Both sides America have incompetent politicians. Ex: Romney. Term limits!!

Uber these fake students to the airport and wave goodbye as their plane take off. ...ONE WAY TICKET and witness they actually get on the flight!!

Thank you Harvard and MIT!

If only the same level of outrage and organization to resist would have been used to protest the kids in cages.

Hes not doing this because he cares about immigrant students, hes doing this because he was being sued

realDonaldTrump loses again.

DT has some very serious mental health issues.

Excellent!

He is just a bully. Always needs to show that he is in charge and then backs off. Jacka$$.

'...rescinded...'😏 I'm sure it had nothing to do with the 17 states and 200 schools that joined Harvard in a lawsuit.

Another of Trump's 'decision-for-the-moment & seat-of-the-pants' ideas fails because he isnt capable of long term strategic thought. He seems to just try to appease his base with actions that are meant to keep America closed to others.

WINNING!!!!! Just like blue will win come NOVEMBER unless Trump starts a war and calls off the Election.

I guess someone finally informed him that with the students go their tuition. We all know it's about the money, he damn sure didn't do it because he had a strick of conscious

Great victory !!

If they are paying why would they leave ? He is just a horrible person any only cares about himself.

the people have spoken

lh_gaudet realslimkaatie

Smart move. This law would cripple ALL colleges and universities. There are a lot of international students is all institutions and they pay a significant amount of tuition.

That thing couldn't win that one either😂

They need to back to ther own country y'all dam dumacracts

hutchinson nice

Donald J. Trump has Sex With 16&-17 years old Girls

Its important to remember this isn't a victory -- look how much time, and how many resources were wasted on something so asinine.

He is such a goon! Such strategic thinking!!

Well, this is definitely a great step towards for procuring our future human capital! We need the best of the best! 👏👏👏👏

Yes! A victory.

Hindsight meet Foresight.

So once again, realDonaldTrump creates a crisis and then resolves it. Are we supposed to applaud? He likely realized that his backers have lots of money to lose in this. TrumpHasNoCredibility

it was a distraction. the question is, from what was he trying to distract from?

THIS IS how we know THEY NEVER HAVE A PLAN!! Everything they do is created to distract, confuse! From Covid-19 to this.... THEY ARE INEPT, CORRUPT, CLUELESS!!! VOTE TO END THIS INSANITY! VoteBlueToSaveAmerica NovemberIsComing

This administration is confused and have totally lost directions

Causing problems so he can “solve” them...again

This was a no-brainer.

This is a great relief for foreign student! It was a dumb decision in the first place.

Trump wussed out !

Now, Trump will take credit for not undoing what he said he was going to do.🤦‍♀️

If only people cared about family separations as much as they care about their college experience, we could have fixed that already by now too.

Are you tired of winning?

What do ya know? Trump tired to release another policy that FAILED miserably. Just another incident where Trump got schooled by academia, unlike the failed university he tried to start LONG before he was president and WHY wasn't that enough to keep this idiot out of office

The 2 schools of ajocheese score a big win here

How was this ever a rule in the first place?

Must be alot of Saudi Arabias enrolled... cant kick them out right...

as you should ❤️

Someone advise: Was this a “New Rule” or one that was on the books just recently becoming an issue?

I have a difficult time believing they just said “okay, we change our mind, they can stay”. What’s the full story?

😂 please don’t vote for Biden 😝 😆 😂 big corona checks and more pot incoming 😂

the_odditty THANK YOU

It appears that he does this stuff for entertainment. Proposes some policy to see if he can get away with it. Then makes himself look good by rescinding it. Unfortunately he's already caused lots of Heartache in the minds of millions.

It wasn’t a rule. It was a policy proposal.

This administration is a DISGRACE.

Massive W for Harvard and MIT as always. Let's goooo, fuck the Trump administration.

Let’s do this!! Trump 2020

College and universities should have cancel GREs test..

It was a stupid rule. Online is still school..

Lying to Daca and now this. WAKE UP!!! HE IS LOOKING FOR VOTES. After then he will go back and do what he does.....Be himself

Right call.

Why

Never back down from the ivy league elitist mob.

The same Harvard that declared online class through 2021🤔 weird

Very interesting 🧐

They were pressure to, this wasn’t going to work.

Good

Ha ha ha, trump lost another one! realDonaldTrump

I don’t get this. Trump decides to make it so that some of the smartest kids in the united states are deported..

Too late to matter for your election TooManyPeopleHaveDied TrumpHasKilledTooManyCitizens

Haven’t they caught foreign spies in colleges?

What did they get n return ..... what’s the full settlement agreement

Worst administration in history

They will try again in some form or another. They're entire plan regarding immigrants is based on a fear of the fictional world from 'The Camp of the Saints' becoming a reality.

The right move. But if I were a student, no way would I want to pay full tuition for online courses. Harvard isn't altruistic here - international students often pay full tuition (no financial aid) & Unis don't want to lose that

Well here’s a positive thing for today. The administration got rid of a terrible policy. Idk if the administration put this rule in place or not, but a welcome change nonetheless.

Every policy the TRUMP ADMIN is trying to do Conservatives Courts are tearing their policies ASUNDER!! as a IDGAF referendum

Thank goodness some people are seeing the light!!

One of the dumbest and most election driven rules to ever be written. Fortunately people with an IQ higher than a potato saw through this.

They need to rescind the inclusion of H2B with the immigration final rule. realDonaldTrump DHS_Wolf WhiteHouse jaredkushner KenCuccinelli SenToomey SAVE SEASONAL BUSINESS PLEASE

It’s this kind of weakness that will be America’s undoing 😡😡😡

winning

It’s almost like they just throw shit against the wall (not THAT wall - it might fall down) and wait to find out if it’s legal.

That thing was going to cost him the election for sure, screwing the economy of college towns because of racism.

the_odditty

good.

Another example of gross stupidity. More lawsuits are needed to drum these Trump fools into the ground until they’re run out of town.

How gracious what do we owe the honor of students wanting to go to American colleges!!! Moron

I bet they did after many SAG’s filed suit against his ignorance. Guys like AGEllison , way2go! Pres. Trump is way out of line with his aggressiveness toward int’ll student programs. 🙅🏼‍♂️👮🏽‍♂️Time Out!

That is the most ridiculous call he tried to enforce! What logical meaning was there

Tike to complain about the next topic

Waiting for all of those people on the last post saying that these students need to go and Trump is doing what’s right, to come back about this to tell me how great this is now. 🥱

Fuck yes!!! One of my professors just emailed me this amazing news. There was NO reason to have done this to those students.

Of Course, you are probably a fool if you actually want to STAY here.

DanRather We need to keep pushing back. Every. Single. Time!

1. create an unnecessary problem and then pretend to fix it or 2. Float a terrible idea and see if it gets past the legislative branch Pretty much this admins playbook

AlohaKatieX

DanRather So will Trump now attempt to take credit for fixing his own mess again?

Ahaaaaaaaa So. Much. Losing. 🤣🤣🤣

trump is the walking poster child for why to stay in school.

They put out the fire they started and want gratitude. Again. 🔥

They have never heard of geo blocking...

Stephen Miller is not happy.

TimOBrien Ya bit too much off Spanky

DanRather How many other idiotic things has he tried to do that we can sue him for and get him to rescind? His oath as President maybe?

DanRather Once again, after causing unnecessary fear and distress, the evil minds of the trump administration decided America was not yet ready for their level of cruelty.

The absolute right move.

Weird how a mixture of laws and lawsuits work. They sued but will still claim COVID19 is still dangerous while trying to keep those that are dangers in country.

DanRather waste of time from the start....make the best and brightest leave?...you can't make this garbage up....so incredibly dumb and a huge waste of time and $.

Interesting change. I fully expected the administration to stand by the original decision. While I understand some of the rational behind the original order it is better for both the students, and the country, by remaining in the country.

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOO

“Today we take an important step in the effort to explore the complexities of our past and to restore this painful dimension of Harvard’s history to the understanding of our heritage,” said Faust during the unveiling. “The past never dies or disappears. BLM

Lesson again is any kind of pushback and trump backs down.

DanRather Great! Grande! महान!Hukuru! Ótima! Géniale! Kuhle! Εξαιρετική! Excelente! すごい!

So he threw shit against a wall and it didn’t stick?

Can Harvard and MIT come to our rescue too!!!!

DanRather UNFIT DJT and his SWAMP administration is a DISGRACE!

The battle isn't over! Now we all must help reverse the immigration proclamation suspending J-1 programs for interns, trainees, summer/work travel, teachers, au pairs, camp counselors! These programs matter too! SaveJ1 AllianceExchnge

MonicaRix Harvard and MIT Like you out of Pocket Donald! We Got Lawyers on Deck JAK!

Who is Harvard named after!? Harvard BLM

DanRather Another W

They only get the idea of the damage they are doing when they are threatened

At least MIT, Harvard and many other renowned universities are standing up fighting for the true value of American spirits, that's the conscience of humankind.

Finally, stupid ice came to senses!

Wise decision. The shouldn’t have to leave, BIG hassle for them. Who knows, universities might open in Fall.

DanRather Resisting every awful policy attempt by the current Administration is an exhausting but vital process. Never has our government tested the limits of America's institutions and norms like this malodorous garbage pile has. ETTD

Every. Single. Thing. They. Do. Is. Awful.

DanRather rajarajan89 you can breathe easy now 😃

Great! 👍👏 gotta give him a bit of credit for that. Trump still sucks but it was the right thing to do. A broken clock still can give you the right time every now and then I guess.

Which is interesting because the US is the highly infected one. I’m surprised anyone would want to come here at this point.

Holy shit I didn’t even know that punk made that policy. Can’t believe people support him. I have fired every dump supporter at my company. Don’t want morons working for me.

Lol at people saying 'they finally did something right...' What do you mean? The administration as a whole started this in the first place!

GREAT NEWS!

Stephen Miller would be heart broken if he had a heart.

This is great news.

DanRather 🥊Civic Action Does Work🥊

No international students, no tuition. This has nothing to do with fairness and everything to do with schools losing money over that rule.

So it wasn’t playing well in the suburbs
