Why Students Are Losing U.S. Visas Over Protests: Free Speech or National Threat?

Should international students be deported for protesting in America? In this episode, Ryan breaks down the real reasons students like Ramisa Ozturk and Hamad Khalil lost their U.S. visas after participating in Palestinian protests—and what it means for the future of free speech, academic freedom, and national security.

He also shares his personal experience with the U.S. visa process, weighs the legal vs. ethical debate, and unpacks whether these deportations are about protecting America… or silencing dissent.
