#Trump says #China will supply rare earths, US to allow #students to attend schools in the #US — so never was about #NationalSecurity

A White House official said the agreement allows the US to charge a 55% #tariff on imported Chinese goods. This includes a 10% baseline “reciprocal”tariff, a 20% tariff for fentanyl trafficking & a 25% tariff reflecting pre-existing #tariffs. China would charge a 10% tariff on US imports, the official said.

Despite an outcry over increased arrests in Tennessee, two states — Georgia and New Mexico — followed its lead by passing laws that will crack down harder on hoax threats.

Today in Labor History June 10, 1960: Thousands of council workers and revolutionary students surrounded the entourage of U.S. Presidential Press Secretary Hagerty at Haneda airport in Tokyo. Hagerty had to be rescued by a US marine helicopter, while the pro-imperialist government of Japan collapsed in embarrassment. President Eisenhower, fearing for his life, cancelled his July visit. The protests were part of the 1959-1960 Anpo (Security Treaty) protests. By June, 1960, hundreds of thousands of protestors were surrounding Japan's National Diet building in Tokyo on nearly a daily basis. At least one protestor was killed.

Today in Labor History June 10, 1971: Mexican police, and paramilitary death squads known as Los Halcones, killed 120 student protesters, including a 14-year-old boy, in the Corpus Christi Massacre, also known as El Halconazo. In 1968, the government had massacred up to 500 of students and bystanders in the Tlatelolco massacre. The Halconazo started with protests at the University of Nuevo Leon, for joint leadership that included students and teachers. When the university implemented the new government, the state government slashed their budget and abolished their autonomy. This led to a strike that spread to the National Autonomous University of Mexico and National Polytechnic Institute. To suppress the strike, the authorities used tankettes, police, riot police, and the death squad, known as Los Halcones, who had been trained by the CIA. Los Halcones first attacked with sticks, but the student fended them off. Then they resorted to high caliber rifles. Police had been ordered to do nothing. When the injured were taken to the hospital, Los Halcones followed and shot them dead in the hospital. Silvia Moreno-Garcia writes about these events in her 2021 novel “Velvet Was the Night.” It is also depicted in the 2018 film Roma.”

Schools aren't just teaching ABCs anymore—they're teaching kids how to feel, heal, and handle life. From peace rooms to peer support squads, mental health is finally getting the spotlight it deserves.

#China Really Wants to Attract Talented #Scientists. Trump Just Helped.
Even before the #US threatened to bar international #students and besieged #universities, China’s huge spending campaign on the #sciences was bearing fruit.
An ad from a group with links to the Chinese Academy of Sciences welcomed “talents who have been dismissed by the U.S. #NIH,” or National Institutes of Health. And streamlined admission to transfer students from #Harvard.

Our kids are under surveillance: The hidden privacy crisis in Ed Tech

Without #students, #classrooms are empty-physically, culturally, contextually, pedagogically. The idea one can meaningfully plan a class before meeting the students seems disingenuous.

…The latest filing, an amended complaint, followed a string of court actions by the #university against the #Trump admin, part of a battle that began in April, when Harvard refused to comply with a list of federal demands.

The government asked, among other things, for Harvard to bar students *hostile* to *American values* & to allow an audit of #faculty & #students to measure “viewpoint diversity” at the school.

#students are constantly #learning in classrooms. Maybe not the intended lessons, but they are learning.

#Trump’s order alleges that #Harvard provided data on misconduct by only 3 #students in response to the #DHS request, & it lacked the detail to gauge if federal action was needed. Trump concluded that Harvard is either “not fully reporting its disciplinary records for foreign students or is not seriously policing its foreign students.”

It applies to all #students attempting to enter the #US to attend #Harvard after the date of the #ExecutiveOrder. It provides a loophole to allow students whose entry would “benefit the national interest,” as determined by federal ofcls.

For foreign students already at Harvard, Secy of #State #MarcoRubio will determine if #visas should be revoked, Trump wrote.

[so the State Dept is overseeing admissions? WTF?]

Watch the pro-Palestinian commencement speech by Megha Vemuri, the Class of 2025 president and valedictorian, who has now been banned from attending her own graduation ceremony at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), in a cowardly capitulation to zionists, and in violation of her right to free speech.
