This H-1B worker has lived in the US for nearly 20 years and built a family here. His mom was dying in India. To visit her, he would need to wait months to book a consular appointment--with the soonest one available likely being scheduled one year out. He made the difficult choice of not visiting his dying mom because leaving without an appointment would mean separation from his children, job, and his other obligations. Much of the commentary around immigration focuses on how such bureaucratic burdens undermine immigrants’ ability to contribute and innovate. But we must remember that this red tape also prevents these people from being fully engaged with their own lives and meaningfully present in the lives of others. This matters too, and these seemingly non-economic problems will eventually translate into economic costs. If America is no longer a place where people feel empowered to be the best versions of themselves as they celebrate, struggle, and grieve, it ceases not just being the land of opportunity, but also the land of dignity and purpose. linkedin.com/posts/gautam-d…

Dear Senator Sanders, Oh, this is RICH. This is so perfectly, exquisitely, weapons-grade rich that I had to put down my anatomy exams and just... appreciate it for a moment. The man who got thrown out of a SOCIALIST HIPPIE COMMUNE in Vermont in 1971 — after THREE DAYS — for refusing to do any actual work while everyone else planted, harvested, and hauled water, is out here telling me the OLIGARCHS want to control everything. Three. Days. The communists gave you a longer trial period than most employers give to someone who steals from the register. Here is what Jim Quinn's Law Number Two says, and I want every single person reading this to tattoo it somewhere useful: "If you want to know what liberals are up to, pay attention to what they accuse conservatives of doing." Senator, you OWN THREE HOMES. A Burlington residence. A D.C. townhouse. A $575,000 vacation lake house in North Hero, Vermont — purchased in 2016, the same year you were touring the country telling college students the system is rigged. Your net worth sits somewhere between $2.5 and $3 million. You have pocketed over $2.5 MILLION in book royalties since 2011. That elevator is clearly not stuck between floors for you, is it. And then — THEN — during your "Fighting Oligarchy Tour" with AOC, you spent over $550,000 in CAMPAIGN FUNDS on PRIVATE JET TRAVEL. Half a million dollars on luxury jets to lecture working Americans about the dangers of wealth. When Fox News caught you boarding a Bombardier Challenger 604 — a jet that runs up to $15,000 PER HOUR — you did not apologize. You did not even blink. You looked directly into the camera and said, and I am quoting this verbatim because it is the most accidentally honest thing you have ever said: "You think I'm gonna be sitting on a waiting line at United?" Senator. THAT IS OLIGARCHIC THINKING. That is TEXTBOOK "the rules apply to you people, not to me." That is the elevator music of every single billionaire you have spent 35 years pretending to oppose. In a battle of wits with your own stated beliefs, you showed up completely unarmed. Thirty-five years in Congress. You know what your personal legislative output looks like? Eight bills passed. EIGHT. In three and a half DECADES. That works out to 0.23 bills per year. I have produced more graded anatomy exams in a single semester. Your two greatest solo legislative achievements — the ones with your name on top, the thing YOU actually DID — are the naming of a post office in Danville, Vermont, and the naming of a post office in Fair Haven, Vermont. You named. Two. Post offices. You are as useful as a screen door on a submarine when it comes to actually passing legislation, but you want me to believe you are the vanguard of the working class. That sounds like a YOU problem. Quinn's Law #25: "Liberals are great at giving away other people's money." You have been living PROOF of that law for 35 years. You give away everyone else's money — from a vacation home on a lake — while spending half a million on jets because you are far too important to wait in line with the taxpayers funding your lifestyle. You want to talk about oligarchs controlling the media? You have been IN the media for four decades. You just finished a $75 million documentary. You have a book deal. You have a podcast. You HAVE the megaphone and you are using it to tell people that other people have the megaphone. The gene pool really needed a lifeguard for THAT particular reasoning. I am a high school science teacher in Northeast Ohio. I support a family of six on a teacher's salary. I am not particularly impressed by a man with three houses, $550,000 in jet receipts, and 0.23 bills per year telling me he stands with the working class. More famous than wise, Senator. More famous than wise. The hippie commune knew it in 72 hours. How long is it going to take everyone else? IF you agree: LIKE this post so the algorithm shows it to people who need to read it. SHARE this. COMMENT below — do YOU think a man with three homes and a half-million dollar private jet habit speaks for working Americans? Tell me. And if you want MORE of this — the data, the history, the science, the stories — JOIN Bski's Classroom community on X or YouTube. But what do I know — I am only a science teacher who can actually do math, a retired Army combat medic who knows what genuine sacrifice looks like, and apparently one of the few people left who finds it suspicious that the most vocal enemy of oligarchy just cannot bring himself to wait in line at the airport with the rest of us. @JoJoFromJerz @GuntherEagleman @catturd2 #MAGA #Veterans #Trump

The Oligarchs want to control it all: our economy, our media, our political system. Today, workers around the world are joining together in solidarity to demand governments that work for ALL, not just the few. I am proud to stand on the side of the working class.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸🇮🇹 Trump just cut Italy loose. "Italy was not on our side. We will not be on their side. They made their choice." Meloni's response: "Italy cannot be part of any organization where children and women are massacred." Trump's closest European ally. Gone. NATO exit threatened. Spain sanctioned. Now Italy. The U.S. is losing Europe.

INSIGHTS: 🇺🇸🇮🇹 Trump just publicly called out Italian PM Giorgia Meloni. "She is no longer the old Meloni. I thought she was brave. I was wrong." Meloni's response: "Italy does not care about what Donald Trump said." Read the Meloni situation carefully. She was Trump's strongest European ally. The one leader who publicly supported his agenda. NATO exit threatened. Iran talks cancelled. Meloni gone. The U.S. is increasingly isolated on the world stage. When you lose your last friend in Europe. You're not winning anymore.

🚨 REPUBLICANS EXPAND WELFARE STATE: GOP Congress just voted to add "hot rotisserie chicken" to the SNAP food stamps program. Because what America’s welfare state really needed was taxpayer-funded Costco chicken. Now demand for chicken will explode and prices will rise proportionally for every working family paying for this. Congratulations GOP, you’re now subsidizing dinner and more inflation at the same time. WHY WOULD 187 "REPUBLICANS" VOTE TO EXPAND THE WELFARE STATE & FOOD INFLATION? DID YOUR REP VOTE FOR IT?

SNAP has just passed an amendment where SNAP recipients can purchase Hot Rotisserie chickens unlike previously where they had to be cold. The House passed this Bipartisan measure in the lower chamber with a vote of 384-35.This will make life easier for so many like the elderly.

But ​​I have MAD respect for him. Think about it: The dude comes over here under the guises of 'repairing or strengthening' the relationship between the US and UK. HIS REAL AGENDA? Going in front of Congress and telling them to get their heads out of their asses and start doing something about the Toddler in Chief. CHUCK GOT GAME. He's a legend.

@bravohorn1 @MerlijnTrader I think all countries and alliances they want to hold are fine. America can't afford to put any resources into the EU when we have the shitshow going on in our own country. If the EU wants to complain vs step up and make the EU a sturdy alliance, that's they're issue.

I am sick, tired. and angry at everyone pointing the finger at America. It's time for the truth to be told. Europe didn’t get abandoned by America. Europe abandoned America first. You’ve been freeloading off U.S. military protection, taxpayer dollars, and strategic cover for decades while lecturing us, undermining our elections, and flooding your own countries with the same radical elements we’re finally confronting. Trump called out Meloni because she folded — just like the rest of you. The moment it mattered, Europe chose to virtue-signal about “children and women” while staying silent on Iran’s actual massacres, nuclear ambitions, and sponsorship of terrorism. The truth is simple: The United States no longer needs a ball and chain of weak, ungrateful “allies” who expect us to subsidize their security while they stab us in the back. America First means we’re done being Europe’s sugar daddy. If Europe wants to keep cozying up to Iran, importing chaos, and turning its back on real strength — that’s your choice. We’ll bring our troops, our weapons, our money, and our protection home. You’ll quickly discover who actually abandoned whom. Europe isn’t losing America. Europe is finally losing the free ride. Good luck defending yourselves.

Warren: Did you through your broker seek to invest in any defense-related funds right before Trump started the Iran war? Hegseth: I'll give it to you as a big fat negative Warren: Is your broker getting your personal sign off-- Hegseth: Bigger, fatter negative Warren: He's not getting your personal sign off before he makes investments?
