The bad news is that six Chinese men wearing camouflage illegally crossed into the United States, but the good news is that thanks to K-9 Bona (a very good girl) and a handful of Texas troopers, they didn’t get far.

For H-1B-dependent employers, the supposed labor market safeguards are full of loopholes. The additional recruitment requirements are waived if the H-1B worker earns at least $60,000 or has a Master’s degree. As a result, most H-1B-dependent companies never have to meaningfully test the labor market before hiring foreign workers. You can thank Congress for adding that loophole in 1998–and President Clinton for signing it into law.

The share of native-born working-age men without a college degree who are not in the labor force fell from 15.7% in January 2025 to 15% in February of this year.

Now with two more months of data available, the share has fallen further to 14.6%.

Since denaturalization is so difficult, extending the wait time before an immigrant can become a citizen might be our best available tool to prevent the naturalization of national security threats.
