Trump and Republicans Mourn Charlie Kirk; Effects of H-1B Visa Fee

Trump and Republicans Mourn Charlie Kirk; Effects of H-1B Visa Fee

On today's podcast:
1) On Sunday evening, Erika Kirk, the widow of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, spoke at memorial service for her late husband, attended by the president and many prominent conservatives. She said she forgave the man who gunned down her husband, saying “I forgive him because it was what Christ did and it’s what Charlie would do.” President Trump proclaimed Charlie Kirk a “martyr for American freedom” in a memorial ceremony.

2) President Trump signed a proclamation to overhaul the H-1B visa program, requiring a $100,000 fee for applications to curb overuse. The proclamation restricts entry under the H-1B program unless accompanied by the payment, and asserts that abuse of the H-1B pathway has displaced US workers.

3) President Trump suggested that Lachlan Murdoch and his father Rupert Murdoch are involved in the US takeover of TikTok. Under the deal, Americans would hold six of the seven board seats for TikTok, the app’s algorithm would be controlled in the US and Oracle would act as TikTok’s security provider.
