the global view on immigration has shifted significantly, with many nations moving away from open-door policies toward stricter border enforcement and restrictive quotas. However, this shift is not uniform, as demographic and economic realities force some countries to expand their immigration pathways.
The global landscape is highly divided, categorized by the following distinct approaches:
1. The Restrictive Shift in the West
Many traditional immigrant-receiving nations—including the United States, the UK, Canada, and parts of Europe—have adopted much stricter immigration limits.
United States: Sweeping policy changes have dramatically slowed net migration. Aggressive enforcement, border restrictions, and a decline in refugee admissions have led to notable drops in the foreign-born workforce. [1, 2]
Europe: Rising political tensions and security concerns have prompted stricter border controls and caps on international students and foreign workers in countries like the Netherlands.
New York City just approved a rent freeze on nearly one million apartments. Sounds great until you realize what happens next. Landlords stop maintaining buildings because there is no return on investment. Developers stop building new housing because it is not profitable. The housing supply shrinks. The shortage gets worse. Every city that has tried rent control has ended up with less housing and worse conditions
New York is about to learn this lesson the hard way
There comes a time when legal action needs to be taken … Especially when the @WNBA won’t take the safety for Caitlin Clark seriously!
This is just the latest attack on her by the black players in the league (I’ll say what no one else will) … During the June 22 Fever vs. Phoenix Mercury game, Caitlin Clark was assaulted on the floor: knee to groin, fist to ribs, fist/forearm to neck/throat as the Phoenix player, Alyssa Thomas (#25), gets up. The players continued to kick and beat her WHILE she was down. Even her teammates didn’t come to her defense! The referees didn’t call this as a foul, which makes them complicit in the abuse happening.
After the fact … The WNBA reviewed the incident and upgraded it to a Flagrant Foul 2 on Alyssa Thomas for “recklessly making contact with her fist to the throat area” of Caitlin Clark. This is considered a non-basketball act.m (whatever that means).
In my opinion … the slap on the wrist only happened because they were caught allowing the abuse and bullying to happen towards Caitlin and the fans are sick of it!
Thomas ONLY got a one-game suspension!😡
No additional fines or longer suspension were reported. So, this makes us believe that the WNBA is being complicit in this abuse and only acted because they were FORCED TOO!
My name is Ella, I'm 17 years old.
I do long jump. I play volleyball. I go to school in New Richmond, Wisconsin.
When my school allowed a biological male into the girls' restroom without telling parents —
I went to the school board.
With my name attached.
In my own town.
I got bullied for it. Harassed online. Even some of my own teachers came after me.
I'm still here.
Because here's what I know:
The net in women's volleyball is set nearly a foot lower for a reason.
A biological male can hit a ball across that net at force that could seriously injure a girl.
And in track — all it takes is three biological males entering the girls' category
and not a single girl in this state stands on a podium.
I didn't speak up because it was easy.
I spoke up because somebody had to.
The Supreme Court is about to answer the question every girl in America is asking.
We're ready.

Today is Friday, June 26, 2026, and John Thune is still a useless RINO piece of human excrement.
REMOVE THUNE!
DEFUND THE TALIBAN!
PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT!
This is Matt Bruner, the man who told Scott Pressler to get the hell out of the dinner with @LeaderJohnThune.
I’ve also included the email addresses of the SD GOP, just in case you want to send them an email.
@Tim_Walz HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
FLUSHING REPUTATION DOWN THE TOILET????
MY MAN, YOU ARE SO FAR DOWN THE SEWER THAT YOU ARE FLOATING IN THE OCEAN IN A PILE OF CORAL.
YOU LET SOMALI FRAUDSTERS STEAL BILLIONS OF OUR DOLLARS.
YOU SHOULD BE IN PRISON FOR LIFE!!!!
Trump just cancelled his White House signing ceremony for a bipartisan housing bill...
He flat out said NO MORE SIGNING UNTIL THE SAVE AMERICA ACT IS PASSED!!
Who else 100% supports him on this?!?
🚨 BREAKING BOMBSHELL TONIGHT, FOLKS—YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS ONE!
I was just dropping two sizzling pre-game warm-ups… but thanks to @ScottPresler, we’ve got a THIRD EXPLOSIVE bombshell! Those communists can’t stop stepping on rakes!
MATT BRUNER—yeah, you, Mr. Smug-Face-on-the-2026-SENATE-GOP-CAN—still wanna play badazz? You’re NOT the Senate Sergeant at Arms, buddy! The REAL one is Jennifer Hemingway, and YOU just got CAUGHT red-handed impersonating a federal officer!
WELCOME TO THE MILITARY CIVILIAN ALLIANCE, PAL! We’re the citizens taking our country BACK from clowns like you! Federal crime alert—18 U.S.C. § 912—up to THREE YEARS behind bars! Good luck explaining that to @DAGToddBlanche! 😈
Meanwhile, Bruner’s “Dakota Natural Beef” empire—family biz pushing fancy Limousin steaks since 2000—looks a lot juicier when you check those fat state grants he’s been cashing! Matt feeds the cows while pretending to guard the Senate?
Hey Matt… this human computer runs at MACH SPEED, and the money trail is LOUD AND CLEAR! @SecScottBessent is gonna LOVE this one!
Stay tuned—more receipts dropping faster than you can say “federal indictment”! 🇺🇸🐺🖕
Signing off Patriots 🐺🇺🇸🫡
#SaveAmerica
@JimEschenbaum@ScottPresler That’s a good step. Thank you.
However, the bigger problem is Thune and anyone protecting him.
We re just starting to dig. I’m sure Scott would love your further support with the Save America Act.
