Why has the Trump Administration paused visa interviews for foreign students?
Ukraine's youngest adults receive a $24,000 bonus for signing up through this program, which is more than many Ukrainian soldiers receive in the space of a year.
It's Wednesday, May 28th. I'm Luke Vargas for The Wall Street Journal. And here is the AM edition of What's News? The top headlines and business stories moving your world today. The Trump administration has hit pause on new interviews for student visas, according to a State Department cable signed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, potentially disrupting operations at universities that argue foreign students help to subsidize tuition for others. The cable orders embassies and consulates not to schedule any new interviews as officials prepare for tougher vetting of applicants' social media activity.
What challenges does Ukraine face in recruiting Gen Z?
Die Bewegung kommt während einer mühsamen Saison für internationale Studenten, die in die USA kommen wollen, die generell von amerikanischen Universitäten in den Frühjahren akzeptiert werden und Visas erhalten müssen, bevor das neue Schuljahr im Sommer beginnt. Letzte Woche hat die Regierung Harvard Universität die Fähigkeit gejagt, fremde Studenten einzuführen, die etwa eine Viertel ihres Studentenbildes erzeugen. Präsident Trump sagt, dass er die Realität-TV-Stars Todd und Julie Chrisley verurteilen wird, die von Verbrechen und Ausgleichsverletzungen verurteilt wurden, die sie als harsche Betreuung verursacht haben. Ein Anwalt für das Paar hat gesagt, dass sie von ihren konservativen Werten getarget worden seien. Der Weg kommt, nachdem Trump am Montag verurteilt hat, dass er den ehemaligen Virginia-Sheriff Scott Jenkins verurteilen würde, der von korruptionsrelevanten Anforderungen verurteilt wurde, um Verbrechungsbewerber mit Badgenoten und Kredenzen zu erzeugen, obwohl sie nicht trainiert haben.
Jenkins ist ein vokaler Unterstützer der Präsidenten-Anti-Immigration- und Gun-Reihts-Agenda. Trump-Loyalist Ed Martin, der Justiz-Departement's new pardon attorney, hat dem Journal gesagt, dass er Jenkins' Fall fast-tracked hat, beschreiben ihn als, quote, »on the right side of a lot of issues«. In just over a week on the job, Martin has begun turning the office into a pipeline for political allies to get cases before Trump and said he had been flooded with requests from lawyers and lobbyists seeking pardons for their clients. The Supreme Court has cleared a major hurdle for a giant copper project in Arizona that's currently being developed by Rio Tinto and BHP Group, rejecting an appeal brought by a local Apache group to block a federal land transfer needed for the project to advance.
The Resolution Copper Project has been under development by the world's two most valuable mining companies for roughly two decades, who say it could supply as much as a quarter of current U.S. demand for the critical mineral. Here's Journal reporter Rhiannon Hoyle.
Das ist argumentierbar der meiste populärste Metall in der Mining-Welt heute. Es schlägt große Anforderungen vor, weil es als Elektrizitätskonduktor funktioniert, was ein wichtiger Teil von EVs, Datenzentren, Powergrids macht. Wichtig für Politiker ist, dass es auch in militärischen Fahrzeugen, wie Flugzeugen, Tanks, Naval-Schiffen, genutzt wird. A founder of the Apache Stronghold Group said the coalition will continue to fight against the development.
