Episode notes
Visa Pause After Loomer Pressure
- Laura Loomer's tweet prompted the State Department to pause medical B2 visas for Gazans amid security concerns and congressional inquiries.
- Krystal argues these were temporary medical visas for injured children, and blocking them is morally depraved given US involvement in the destruction of Gaza.
Rubio Cites Terror Links For Review
- Marco Rubio said visas were paused because some facilitators allegedly have links to Hamas and adults accompany the children.
- The State Department planned a review to reassess vetting and organizational ties before resuming visas.
