Rubio quietly gutted decades of administrative law by claiming that all immigration policy is "a foreign affairs function" and so Americans will not get to comment on any of the mass deportation and anti-legal immigration actions of this administration.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Elon Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion a few years ago and now it's worth roughly 25% of what he paid for it after he fired a bunch of people, drove a bunch of users and advertisers away by boosting conspiracy theories and Nazis...so that's obviously a great model for how to run the US gov't!

I'm mulling over this today. We need to thread the needle between warning people and not spreading propaganda, and self-regulating our own panic and outrage will be key.
Actionable information is the most useful, but not all information is actionable. How do we (de-) prioritize the rest?

Corporate America is desperate to kiss the ring.
There's nothing they won’t do for a tax break.

4. New travel bans under Section 212(f) of the INA. We expect at minimum a renewed version of the "Muslim Ban" travel ban that passed SCOTUS muster. My questions are:
- Does it begin immediately?
- Which countries?
- Which visas will be blocked?
- What other 212(f) bans will go into effect?

What to expect from Trump's Day 1 immigration agenda:
1) cancel the CHNV parole processes which have channeled 30,000 people/month into legal channels
2) ban scheduling appointments for lawful entry from Mexico using the CBPOne app

Return-to-office (RTO) mandates lead to abnormally high employee turnover, especially for female/more senior/more skilled employees.
It also takes significantly longer to fill these job vacancies after RTO mandates.

There was a very positive development today. The Biden administration finalized a rule that automatically extends work permits 540 days when you file a renewal application. It'd be good if we didn't need this, but with delays as they are, it will ensure people don't lose jobs due to USCIS delay.
