The federal government retains broad authority to terminate SEVIS records and revoke visas; in either case no notice is given to the university. Late last week, staff from our International Center reviewing SEVIS records discovered the Department of Homeland Security had terminated visas for 11 individuals affiliated with U-M, including four enrolled students and seven graduates. Since then, the number of affected individuals has increased to 22, including 12 enrolled students and 10 graduates. The federal government has not shared details on the specific reasons for these visa revocations or SEVIS record terminations. Please know the university has not provided lists or other identifying information to federal immigration or law-enforcement authorities relating to these students and graduates.
The Trump regime is full of lawless, anti-American thugs. They belong in prison.
You can be sure at some point some of these assholes have a one way ticket booked.

He blinked yet again. China has no reason to roll over at this point because they know eventually he will block with them too. Spineless, clueless idiot.

I'm glad he blinked. Would've been 100000000x better had he not gone down this absurd road in the first place.

I think he just likes creating chaos and the attention that comes from it. I'm worried about what happens once the 90 days expires.

It's always good to be liquid in times like this, I got the direction to put everything I have in, and it did well. I'm sure it will come right back out at some point.

Or as Honeyman has suggested, he permanently stops blinking.

President Trump on Wednesday said he would pause his reciprocal tariffs for most countries for the next 90 days, backing down on his policy that had sent markets into a tailspin and threatened to upend global trade. But Mr. Trump said his break did not include China, announcing he would instead raise tariffs on its exports to 125 percent after Beijing announced a new round of retaliation.

Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, said the tariff level would be brought down to a universal 10 percent — a significant reduction for many countries.
He is quickly becoming the Trump who cried tariff. Nobody is gonna respect somebody who quits at the first sign of trouble.
So you were bitching about Trump's Tariffs,
Now you're bitching about him backing down?

I’m bitching about him doing these idiotic things and then backing down and pretending any other world leader is gonna respect him or fear him or whatever he wants. Nobody is gonna take the U.S. seriously with a guy in charge that changes his mind every 90 seconds.

There you go again , personal attacks, name calling without a debate, or civil discussion, you don't like my reply? Then tell me, as an adult, why you think I am wrong? I get it, you're always right and everyone else is not as smart as you, I bow to your greatness and political superiority over me, but again, be a grown up and tell me what I am wrong about?

Thank you, just wanted to clarify your comment, unlike others in here, who resort to name calling and "I am better than you" comments/replies...
