Following months of controversy, President Donald Trump issued a proclamation in September decrying the systemic abuse of the H-1B visa program, which he said is fueling the "large-scale replacement of American workers" that "has undermined both our economic and national security."To address this, Trump instituted a $100,000 fee for companies seeking to obtain an H-1B visa, a move that has been widely criticized by business leaders, especially in the tech industry.Debate over the program has split both the American public and the GOP, with one side saying the visa holders are poaching American jobs and the other saying it is

A longtime BBC anchor said the majority of board members who control the British broadcaster feel it has "a problem of institutional bias reflected in the coverage" of President Donald Trump. The BBC has been engulfed in criticism over a BBC Panorama documentary about Trump’s Jan. 6, 2021, speech that he delivered before the riot at the U.S. Capitol. Critics say the documentary was misleading because it omitted Trump urging supporters to protest peacefully, and the BBC director-general Tim Davie and BBC News and Current Affairs chief Deborah Turness both stepped down in recent days amid the growing controversy. Trump’s legal team sent

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., was the only Republican who broke with his party and voted no on the test vote to break a filibuster on the deal to reopen the government.Paul voted nay because he wanted a guarantee of a change in the bill regarding hemp.The measure prevents "unregulated sales" of "intoxicating hemp-based" products at gas stations and small retailers. It preserves the sale of non-intoxicating CBD in other hemp-related products.So if the Senate got 60 votes last night to break the filibuster and only needs 51 to pass the bill, why is the Senate stymied by Paul?GOVERNMENT LIMPS DEEPER
