MEDIA: Prickly US softens H-1B visa demand: Trump stand, more fee and scrutinylead to 25% drop in FY26 applications

Times of India's Swathi Moorthy on whether NeverBackDown.ORG's Ken
Cuccinelli and Steve Cortes advised Casey DeSantis to dispatch Ron to
David McIntosh's ClubForGrowth.ORG to plead for go-ahead to deploy
the likes of John Miano onto Lachlan Murdoch's FoxNews.COM to impeach
Donald Trump for slow-walking Miano's lawsuit to rescind George Bush
and Barack Obama's extra-legal Optional Practical Training segment
of the Cheap Labor Lobby's F-1 to OPT to H-1B scab worker import
pipeline:

| In addition, students who don't have an urgent need to shift to a
| work visa after their education and stay on in the US, are choosing
| to leave. "There was fear among students who had potential OPT
| (optional practical training) opportunities," Chothani said. "In
| this uncertain environment, even a little run-in with the law can
| get you into trouble. They have decided to play it safe and go
| home." ET reported in April that overseas students in science,
| technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) are faced with the
| threat of having to leave the US within a year of completing
| studies, after a bill was introduced in the US Congress to eliminate
| OPT work authorisation. OPT allows them to stay for up to three
| years after graduation and find a job. The Trump administration has
| been trying to fulfil the president's election pledge with an anti-
| immigration crackdown that includes mass deportations. These have
| intensified measures that began during his first term in office.

According to Lori Chavez-DeRemer's DoL.GOV labor surveys, how many F-1
visa students will be competing with Americans in Americans' labor
market at the end of Trump second term and how does Susie Wiles
recommend Peter Thiel's VP JD Vance sell the hard facts on the ground
to legacy American proles who hoped their sons and daughters would be
better off after voting for Trum-Vance 2024?

"Capitalism does not require immigration. America boomed
economically in the 20th century with very little immigration.
Capitalism is an economic system in which a country's trade and
industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by
the state." - RAMZPAUL
