In our inaugural episode of 2025, I review our concerns about where Trump and Elon are headed both with spending and with immigration. Those were the two core mandate issues of the election, yet on both of them Trump is reversing course. I lay out a very specific plan for Trump to fulfill his mandate by passing the RAISE Act to restrict all low-skilled immigration before we have any debate about increasing other categories. Trump needs to get back to making the moral and cultural case against mass immigration. I also lay out strategies for budget reconciliation and why it's important to force concessions from Speaker Johnson before handing him the gavel. We cannot simply be listless vessels allowing Trump to drift and pull everyone to the left. The mandate is huge, the opportunity is real, but unless we change course, we will toss a political interception. Finally, I introduce a new fun segment to deal with the listless vessels who make sudden "retarded" arguments they never believed.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The illegal immigration crisis at the southern border overshadows discussion about the existing legal immigration system in the United States. But on this episode of the Center for Immigration Studies' podcast, Phillip Linderman, a Center board member and retired State Department senior Foreign Service officer, discusses two outdated legal immigration programs, ‘extended' family reunification and the visa lottery, with guest host Jessica Vaughan, the Center's director of policy studies.The U.S. accepts more than 1.1 million legal immigrants every year, over two-thirds of whom enter via family-based categories -- meaning they enter because of who they are related to, not because of any skills they possess or humanitarian needs they might have. Linderman explains how the legal immigration system currently in place exists primarily to grow the number of family members of immigrants in the U.S. As Vaughan points out, each legal immigrant brings an average of 3.4 additional immigrants into the country through chain migration.This episode also covers the controversial Visa Lottery program. Linderman and Vaughan question its value, highlighting how the program's poor vetting has attracted criminal activity. Four policy suggestions emerge from the discussion on legal immigration:Prioritize spouses and minor children, as opposed to extended family units that include parents, adult sons and daughters, and adult siblings;Shift toward skill-based immigration, aligning with proposals such as the RAISE Act;Eliminate the Visa Lottery;Simplify the immigration process.In her closing commentary, Vaughan flags a concerning rise of sanctuary policies in Utah. As explained in separate posts by Ron Mortensen, a Center fellow, and Jon Feere, the Center's director of investigations, two county sheriffs in the state recently canceled their contracts with ICE due to the burdensome requirements of the Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman.HostJessica Vaughan is the Director of Policy Studies the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestPhillip Linderman is a Center Board Member and retired State Department Senior Foreign Service Officer.RelatedChain Migration and the Diversity Visa Program: Legal Immigration at Its WorstChain Migration: Burdensome and ObsoleteICE Loses Cooperation with Jails in Utah, Nebraska, and Nevada over Burdensome AuditsUtah: The Reddest (and Stealthiest) Sanctuary StateICE Internal Info MemoFollowFollow Parsing Immigration Policy on Ricochet, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts.Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

In this podcast, American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) President Myron Guymon, DDS, MS, joins host Alison Werner for the Orthodontic Products podcast on the Medqor Podcast Network. Guymon, who just started his 1-year term as AAO president, shares his priorities for his term and talks about the ongoing work of the AAO.Guymon, who is a graduate of Baylor Dental College (now known as Texas A&M School of Dentistry) and went on to open his practice in northern Utah, started in leadership at the component level with the Utah Association of Orthodontists before moving on to leadership roles within the Rocky Mountain Society of Orthodontists. As he was closing out his presidency of the Utah state association, he had his first opportunity to become involved with the AAO with its Council on Communications.In this episode, Guymon talks about the benefits of being involved in state, regional, and national orthodontic associations. As Guymon says, “We are so much better together as a group.” At the same time, he acknowledges that not every orthodontist wants to get involved in leadership; but there are still a myriad of opportunities to still get involved and make a difference—whether it's serving on a committee or task force, or simply sending a text to a legislator.Guymon, who stepped into his term as AAO president for 2023-2024 at the close of the recent AAO Annual Session in Chicago, shares that his number one priority for his term is to be help shepherd the many initiatives that have been launched in recent years—such as TechSelect and the New Product Showcase. As Guymon puts it, the AAO seeks to support and encourage innovation in the profession.From there, Guymon talks about the latest campaign from the AAO Consumer Awareness Program—or CAP—and the association's advocacy work. At the federal level, the AAO remains focused on such issues as student load relief and the RAISE Act. But it's at the state and regulatory level, that Guymon says the AAO has been able to have a more immediate impact. He talks about the AAO's approach and how its team has been able to monitor and react quickly to ensure the health and safety of the profession and patients.In this interview, Guymon also shares his thoughts on how the profession has evolved, the AAO's diversity and inclusion work and upcoming Winter Conference in San Antonio and next Annual Session in New Orleans, and how the AAO can work with DSOs/OSOs.

Darrell Castle presents how the RAISE ACT would change American immigration policy. Transcription / Notes THE RAISE ACT Hello this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report.  Today is Friday August 18, 2017, and on today's Report I will be talking about the Raise Act, which stands for Reforming American Immigration for a Strong Economy Act.  The discussion of this new proposal will give us a chance to take a look at current American immigration policy.  The Raise Act, then, is an attempt to reform American Immigration Policy and base it on a different set of assumptions. The Raise Act was proposed by Senator Tom Cotton, the junior Senator from Arkansas, who filed it in February 2017.  A brief look at Senator Cotton's background tells us that he is from a family of Arkansas farmers and that he attended Harvard University, where he graduated with honors.  He then graduated from Harvard law school, but instead of practicing law, he enlisted in the United States Army, serving two separate tours in combat, one in Iraq and one in Afghanistan.  The Raise Act so far has attracted one co-sponsor—David Perdue, the junior senator from Georgia. President Trump is on board with the Act, and in fact, you will often see it cited as Trump's immigration bill.  Keep in mind that this bill seeks to reform American Immigration Policy for legal immigration, and it has nothing to do with illegal entry into the country.  The Act seeks to change or reform the policy that allows people from foreign countries to legally acquire permanent resident status in the United States. The current immigration policy of the United States consists of three basic parts and each part has many sub-parts.  The first part is immigration for the so-called “green card people.”  These are foreigners who are allowed permanent status in the United States with a green card.  They can do anything an American Citizen can do except vote.  After they've been here a few years, they can apply for citizenship.  Immigrants can then bring as many relatives as they want, i.e., the so-called “chain migration”.  Senator Cotton's bill would limit chain migration to spouses and dependent children only. Refugees are also included in this category.  In 2016 we admitted 85,000 with refugee status; in 2015 it was 70,000; 2014, 70,000; 2013, 70,000.  The Raise Act would limit refugees to 50,000 per year, so not that big a change.  Also within this immigration category is the so called diversity lottery.  That is where people from other countries can enter a lottery and 50,000 are selected each year for permanent residence.  Last year over 14 million registered for the lottery.  The vast majority of the 50,000 selected were from Africa and the Middle East.  The Raise Act would eliminate the lottery altogether. Immigration under the Raise Act would be based on a points system.  Accepted Applications would be limited to 140,000 per year, and spouses and minor children would count against the 140,000.  To be placed in the applicant pool a person would need 30 points.  Points would be awarded based on age, education, English language proficiency, extraordinary achievement, i.e., a Noble Prize winner gets 25 points, actual job offer with a salary at least 150% of what local Americans would make, and investment of money in a new enterprise.  The criticism of this points system is usually that it doesn't provide a path to entry for less skilled workers but the idea is to raise the status of the American worker by limiting foreign competition for less skilled jobs. The second category of current immigration policy is guest workers.  These are people who are admitted for a fixed term, not permanently, and only to perform a specific agreed upon job.  The points system under the Raise Act would obviously drastically affect the guest worker program. If the Raise Act seeks to base American Immigration Policy on a different set of assumptions as I've said it does,

How will Artificial Intelligence (AI) Affect Warfare? In today's episode we discuss the role of artificial intelligence in the future of warfare. What are the risks? How is the United States likely to fare in confrontations involving the use of AI? In a recent paper, Center for a New American Security Fellow Greg Allen and his co-author, Taniel Chan, illustrate both the risks and opportunities for the use of AI in warfare. We discuss these findings plus lessons learned from previous revolutions in the use of military technology. Bio Greg Allen (@Grecory_C_Allen) is an Adjunct Fellow with the Technology and National Security Program at the Center for a New American Security. He focuses on the intersection of Artificial Intelligence, cybersecurity, robotics, and national security. Additionally, Mr. Allen's writing and analysis has appeared in WIRED, Vox, and The Hill. In 2017, The Harvard Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs published  his report entitled “Artificial Intelligence and National Security”. Allen and his co-author, Taniel Chan conducted this  study on behalf of the U.S. Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA). Mr. Allen currently works at Blue Origin, a space exploration and technology company. Prior to working at Blue Origin, he worked at Avascent, where he advised senior executives in government and the private sector. Mr. Allen holds a joint MPP/MBA degree from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and the Harvard Business School. Further, his Master's Thesis was honored with the Belfer Center Award for Excellence in International and Global Affairs.

However, the FBI becomes exempt from the Privacy Act provision that allows this on August 31. You can find the story in next.gov. Senate confirms Rosenworcel and Carr The Federal Communications Commission is now up to 5 Commissioners. So it finally has a full panel of Commissioners. The Senate confirmed Democrat Jessica Rosenworcel and Republican Brendan Carr last week. Rosenworcel previously served as a Commissioner during the Tom Wheeler FCC for three years from 2012 to 2015. Carr is the the FCC's current General Counsel. In addition, President Donald Trump had also nominated Chairman Ajit Pai. However, the Senate did not take up Pai's nomination before the recess. The three Republicans at the Commission will now be Pai, Carr and Michael O'Rielly. And the two Democrats are Rosenworcel and Mignon Clyburn. Edward Graham has the story in Morning Consult. Tech sector opposes legal immigration restrictions The tech sector is opposing the GOP immigration bill President Trump endorsed last week which would cut legal immigration in half over 10 years. The so-called RAISE Act prefers highly skilled workers and English speakers and moves extended family members of immigrants to the back of the line. The Information Technology Industry Council (ITIC)-- the trade group that lobbies on behalf of tech giants Google, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft and others--opposes the measure. ITIC president Dean Garfield said in a statement “This is not the right proposal to fix our immigration system because it does not address the challenges tech companies face, injects more bureaucratic dysfunction, and removes employers as the best judge of the employee merits they need to succeed and grow the U.S. economy.” Tony Romm has the story in Recode. Meanwhile, Canada is emerging as the "New" New Colossus, welcoming Emma Lazaraus's "huddled masses yearning to breathe free". Canadian business and government leaders are seizing on the opportunity to welcome tech talent to Canada. David George-Cosh and Jacqui McNish report in the Wall Street Journal. Apple and Amazon bow to China, Google complies with Russia The tech sector is coming under increased pressure to conform to multinational norms. Paul Mozur at The New York Times reports that Apple has removed Chinese censor-evading VPN apps from its Chinese app store. Amazon also warned its Chinese customers to stop using software that evades China's Great Firewall. Further, in Russia, Google has begun implementing terms it settled on in a dispute with its Russian competitor, Yandex. The agreement stipulates that Google would give Russians a choice of which browser to use on Android phones. In accordance with the agreement, Google began suggesting other browsers to Russian Android users last week. David Meyer reports in Fortune. Senate passes 6 bills before recess The Senate passed 6 bipartisan technology and communications bills before they departed for recess. They include bills  to expand spectrum availability (MOBILE NOW Act S. 19), improve service in rural areas ( S. 96) , and make it easier to call 911 from hotel rooms (Kari's Law Act of 2017, S. 123). Congress wrote the latter bill in response to Brad Dunn's fatal stabbing of his wife, Kari Hunt, in a hotel room in Marshall, Texas as Hunt's 9-year-old daughter tried to call 911.  Unbeknownst to the young girl, the hotel room phone required callers to dial 9 before 911, and she was unable to reach a dispatcher. Other bills include: Spoofing Prevention Act of 2017 (S. 134): Legislation to stop misleading or inaccurate caller ID information.  Federal Communications Commission Consolidated Reporting Act of 2017 (S . 174): Legislation to require the FCC to condense duplicative reports on competition in the telecommunications market into one comprehensive report released every two years.  Developing Innovation and Growing the Internet of Things Act (DIGIT Act)(S. 88): Legislation to bring together private sector and government entities to assess the needs of the Internet of Things (IoT) and study the readiness of government to support the IoT. Senators introduce the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act of 2017 Several advocacy groups are opposing a new bipartisan bill entitled the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act of 2017. The bill has the support of six Senators--3 Republican and 3 Democrat--including Senators Portman, McCain, Cornyn, Blumenthal, McCaskill, and Heitkamp. The new law would allow victims of sex trafficking to sue and press charges against any website that "knowingly or recklessly" enabled sex trafficking. Additionally, it would criminalize conduct by websites that “assists, supports, or facilitates a violation of federal sex trafficking laws”. Further, it would allow the states to prosecute sites under federal sex crimes laws. Advocates argue that this new legislation would eviscerate Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. Section 230 shields websites from liability stemming from content posted by their users. Without section 230, these advocates say, the internet as we know it simply would not exist. Further, the advocates argue that it would simply be too risky for sites like Facebook or Twitter to host user-generated content. Sarah Jeong covers this in The Verge. Facebook's new diversity report shows little progress Facebook released its fourth annual diversity report. Eighty-nine percent of its workforce self-identifies as white or Asian. However, the number of women working at Facebook has increased by 2 percentage points since last year to 35%. Nevertheless, women hold just 19% of tech positions at Facebook, although the company reports that 27% of its engineering hires are women. Looking at the senior ranks ... 70% are white, 72% are male and of the women who have cracked the glass ceiling into the c-suite, 68% are white. However, the percentage of Facebook employees who identify as black went from 2 to 3%. Hispanics when from 4 to 5%. Clare O'Connor reports in Forbes.

In this episode of the Conservative Conscience, we first tackle the importance of firing H.R. McMaster and how Trump is his own worst enemy when it comes to personnel and order in the White House.  We also delve into the opportunity we have for a new vision on immigration and health care but how it’s being squandered either by Trump’s distractions or by the rotten Republican leadership. Finally, we discuss the race of the decade that is right on our doorstep – the Alabama Senate race.  Will conservatives take yes for an answer?  The stars appear to be aligning for Judge Roy Moore, but conservatives must prepare for a massive smear operation in the runoff.  If we can pull this off, it will represent the closest thing to starting a new party.  This is a man who is actually everything in practice what we tout in rhetoric.      Show links Poll Showing Roy Moore way ahead and by far the most liked candidate DACA “Dreamer” rapes and tortures a young woman Why the Raise Act is true immigration reform The English language and assimilation   Jews can’t build synagogue in Sydney because…Muslims!
