Trump regrets taking Jared Kushner's advice to downplay the National
Question on the campaign stump against Joe Biden and Kamala Harris: <URL:

| Some workers with an urgent need to get back to the US have traveled
| to consular offices in third countries like the United Kingdom to
| secure visa stamps, but that option depends on capacity in those
| countries. Even in this remote work era, businesses face major
| headaches if employees can't return to the US because of wait times
| for a visa stamp. Time zone differences, for example, mean coworkers
| can't collaborate effectively and many jobs--in healthcare, lab
| research, or engineering--can't be done remotely at all, Fresco
| said.
|
| The delays for workers to enter the US impact costs for businesses
| as well as their reputation with customers, said Jon Baselice, vice
| president of immigration policy at the US Chamber of Commerce.
If Baselice self-deported from the US, which labor market would offer
him sanctuary?

"People keep saying Jared Kushner won't be involved in a second
Trump administration after playing a key role in sabotaging the
first administration *and* the 2020 campaign. But he will in some
capacity, likely through proxies, America First Policy Institute,
etc." - Pedro Gonzalez <URL:
