Extra: The President's Crackdown on Foreign Students

Fox News01-06-2025

The Trump Administration is cracking down on foreign student visas this week, pausing interviews, announcing plans to increase scrutiny of international students, and even revoking the visas of students from China.
Earlier this week, George Washington University Law Professor and FOX News Contributor Jonathan Turley joined Jessica Rosenthal to weigh in on some of these actions and the legal battles they will spark.
He also discussed President Trump's ongoing clash with Harvard University and other elite institutions, as well as his threats to withdraw federal funding.
We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview.
Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with legal scholar Jonathan Turley and allow you to hear even more of his take on the President's visa crackdown.

Democratic socialist candidate for NYC mayor a 'gift to Republican Party,' GOP lawmaker says

Rep. Riley Moore, R-W.V., said Sunday that Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani, who won New York City's mayoral primary, is a "gift to the Republican Party," because other candidates would have to distance themselves from him during the upcoming election cycle. "He's talking about government-run grocery stores, free transportation, jacking up tax prices. If you live in West Palm Beach, Florida, your property value is about to skyrocket, likely," Moore said during CNN's "State of the Union," in reference to Mamdani. "To me, this is a gift to the Republican Party because this guy is going to be a lightning rod that they're going to have to distance themselves from, in the upcoming election cycle." CNN's Jake Tapper asked Moore if there was something for Republican candidates to worry about with regard to Mamdani's victory. Mamdami defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary last week. "Now, what I think happened here is what you saw with Clinton, Obama-flashback to that primary, is that the establishment was just trying to roll over and get what they want and push a unpopular person, such as Cuomo, back into politics, and they just rejected it. They keep running this same kind of playbook, and I think that's what it has more to do with," Moore continued. CNN commentator Ashley Allison said Democrats needed to help Mamdani govern, but acknowledged that he'd made problematic statements. "I think that there was an effective and aggressive no-to-Cuomo campaign, which opened for whoever was in that primary to find their lane. And Mamdani was the one who found his lane and is now the Democratic nominee. Democrats, when people win our primaries, support them, help him govern. Don't turn your back on them," she said. "We are the big tent party, at least we used to be. So there's enough space for all of us. Don't let him become mayor and then just turn your back on him, help him govern. I am disappointed that more Democrats haven't. There are some things that he says that I find problematic, but Donald Trump is our president and a lot of people support him, and he said a lot of things that are problematic too, so we can find our way around things and hold people accountable while still supporting them to be good mayors," Allison continued. Mamdani, whose campaign galvanized supporters on the ground and on social media, has proposed what conservatives deem radical ideas, like government-run grocery stores, free bus service, tuition-free city universities, rent freezes and free childcare, among others. The socialist candidate was endorsed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. Mamdani criticized capitalism during a recent interview on CNN. "No, I have many critiques of capitalism," he said in response to host Erin Burnett's question about whether he liked it. "And I think, ultimately, the definition for me of why I call myself a democratic socialist is the words of Dr. [Martin Luther] King decades ago. He said, 'call it democracy, call it democratic socialism.' There must be a better distribution of wealth for all of God's children in this country," he said. "And that's what I'm focused on is dignity and taking on income inequality. And for too long, politicians have pretended that we're spectators to that crisis of affordability. We're actually actors, and we have the choice to exacerbate it, like Mayor [Eric] Adams has done, or to respond to it and resolve it like I'm planning to do."

Why China Is Determined to Choose the Next Dalai Lama

Tibet's spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, turns 90 this week. This isn't just a milestone birthday, it's an opportunity to define his legacy. Ahead of those celebrations, he's expected to make a long-anticipated announcement about his heir. China is determined to shape the narrative around this succession, to prevent the erosion of its grip on Tibet, a mountainous region that it annexed in the 1950s. At the time, the Dalai Lama was forced to flee in disguise, dressing in a Chinese uniform and escaping on foot with family members and ministers to India, where they settled as refugees. He established a government-in-exile in the northern city of Dharamshala, which has advocated for greater freedoms for their homeland.
