You've likely seen the new $100,000 penalty on high-skill immigrant workers.
Here's the next, separate bomb the White House is dropping on high skill immigration, to be officially published *tomorrow*.
tl;dr: Most H-1Bs now inaccessible for entry-level jobs, e.g. new grads from US universities.

Exactly. Progressive USians are told constantly that the right are dumb and can't read - and yet, the right have been consistently developing their plan from Julius Evola, Deng Xiaoping, Aleksandr Dugin, Vladislav Surkov, dumbed down into Curtis Yarvin, and implementing it since the 1970s.

The Democratic Party is a lost cause. Not to mention I don’t understand how the Republicans executed a flawless 60 year plan to end democracy and the Democrats somehow have no plan. Almost like they’re paid to lose by the richest people in the world or something.

As a result, for some very high-severity policy areas like child safety, we recently made some short-term moderation choices to prioritize recall over precision.
