Life's like a game of cards. The hand you're dealt is fate; the way you play it is free will.




Mike Johnson sold Republican health care cuts as a crackdown on undocumented immigrants. It was a lie from day one. Undocumented immigrants were never eligible for Medicaid or ACA subsidies. Here’s what’s actually happening: Premiums have more than doubled on average, ACA enrollment is down 1.5 million, and the Urban Institute projects 4.8 million Americans will lose coverage in 2026. Democrats warned about every bit of this. Johnson did it anyway. nytimes.com/2026/05/01/bus…

Trump:



Weird Trump forgot to mention India in this post of contributions per immigrant. It's -27,000 per India immigrant. Same IZA Study 2024







Trump: I took three cognitive tests. They are hard. Many people in this room couldn’t ace them. The first question is you have a lion, a bear, an alligator, and a what's another good, a squirrel, OK? Which is the squirrel?







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…
