Source for your first claim?
How many of the students you claim are disruptive and spew distasteful rhetoric are there among the millions? What’s the percentage?
Google AI:
While a significant number of foreign graduates want to stay in the US, only a fraction of them actually find and obtain employment after graduation. Specifically, studies show that around 11% of those with bachelor’s degrees and about 23% of those with master’s degrees remain in the US for work.

Trump isn’t looking to remove millions. Only those who have become disruptive.

And why is that a bad thing? If a quarter of Masters students stay in the US, that seems like a pretty good return on investment.

If you weren’t close minded partisan you would read the article in the OP.
Cherry picking AI.
How many phds stay?
Also, why does it matter if they stay or not?
They come and study and research. We benefit from their work. Why is it only good if they stay?
I guess he doesn’t remember a few weeks back Trump proposing keeping here and/or bringing in bright and entrepreneurial people via the “gold card”, which was touted as a higher end version of our current green card. The hypocrisy of libs is pretty pathetic as they had no problem with the Dems flooding the country with millions and millions of the world’s impoverished citizens. All of a sudden POVERTY IS GOOD!

Depending on the source, it looks like between 1,700 and 4,600 foreign students out of 1.1 million are being targeted. A fraction of 1 percent.
1 in 9 Bachelor’s holders…
1 in 4 Masters hoders…
(some share even larger amongst) PhD holders…
That is stupendously good for America - unless of course you think education is a negative.
Talk about calling the kettle black.
I scanned it and then looked elsewhere. How else would I have known it was a political screed?
Again, a small fraction of one percent of foreign students are being target. Those few won’t result in a brain drain.
There are legitimate concerns.
From the article.
The next day, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the government would be looking to revoke the visas of Chinese students “with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields.”
Maybe there’s a happy middle ground in all this. But, like a doctor removing a cancerous tumor, a lot of tissue around the problem area is getting removed.
I might suggest that we wouldn’t have this issue had certain schools acted quickly to subdue the antisemitic protests over the last year. They drew attention to the overseas influences inside the schools, and, as the saying goes, the nail that sticks up gets hammered down.
There could have been some bend on the part of the schools, and likewise on the part of the administration. But now the lines have been drawn.

You literally didn’t even read it, by your own admission. Great work, Carnac.
Do you want foreigners here to take American jobs workibg for 1/3rd the price even if it’s a white collar job? Or since the foreign students pay more money, they are open to easier paths to get a degree then citizens.

I want the smartest, most talented people from around the world working to build, design, create, invent stuff in the United States instead of (insert place they came from to attend school here).
I found what I was looking for elsewhere.
The administration’s actions won’t change that.
No you didn’t.
Or you wouldn’t say something dumb like this:
But in spite of its legal losses, the federal government has doubled down on its efforts to target international students. On Tuesday, the Trump administration stopped scheduling new student visa interviews for those looking to study in the U.S., according to an internal cable seen by NBC News. Meanwhile, the State Department is preparing to expand its social media screening of applicants, the cable said.
You “decided” it was a “partisan screed” because it disagreed with your ridiculous premise. But you didn’t even read it.
