Morris Dees and $PLC certified deplorable, Jon Feere on whether
Donald Trump's Save America PAC will endorse Betsy DeVos and Ken
Cuccinelli: https://cis.org/Feere/ICE-Must-Investigate-Columbia-Universitys-Foreign-Student-Program-Light-Fraud-Allegations>
| Assuming that these allegations are accurate, they raise serious
| questions about how widespread fraud of this nature is within the
| schools SEVP has certified. If this is occurring in the Ivy League
| then it's hard not to imagine it happening at obscure, low-ranked,
| poorly managed schools that have received SEVP's blessing. Less
| notable schools with smaller numbers of foreign students are less
| likely to be on the radar of an HSI agent simply as a matter of
| resources. Of course, SEVP has the ability to raise fees to hire as
| many agents as needed to provide proper oversight. In fact, a
| regulation to raise SEVP fees that would, among other things, result
| in the hiring of HSI special agents who could ensure compliance with
| the SEVP regulation was initiated under the Trump administration,
| but SEVP killed that effort (or didn't fight hard enough to defend
| it) and revoked the draft regulation within weeks of the Biden
| administration taking over. (See "Adjusting Program Fees for the
| Student and Exchange Visitor Program", here.) Leadership within
| SEVP, HSI, or the Biden administration are apparently satisfied with
| the fraud under their watch and don't think it's important to
| increase enforcement and oversight despite the fact that the foreign
| student program has grown rapidly.

Feere ran out of column inches to report on why Trump slow-walked John
Miano's lawsuit to end the illegal OPT component of the Cheap Labor
Lobby and Big .EDU's F-1 to OPT to H-1B scab worker import pipeline.
