Slap a 50% tariff on the wages of all H1Bs that come here to work at Microsoft...and all kinds of places like universities, hospital and medical IT, local governments.

As of 2025, roughly 442,000 unique beneficiaries were registered for H-1B visas in the United States, according to USCIS data. For the Fiscal Year 2025 (starting October 1, 2024), about 120,600 H-1B registrations were initially selected in the lottery, which is a subset of the total registrations submitted. The total number of eligible registrations dropped significantly from about 759,000 in 2024 to around 470,000 registrations in 2025, reflecting changes in the selection process aimed at reducing multiple registrations for the same individual and limiting fraud.

These numbers reflect registrations for new and continuing H-1B status, but the total number of active H-1B visa holders in the U.S. at any given time includes both new visa holders and those with ongoing valid H-1B status from prior years. USCIS does not publish an exact current total population of all active H-1B visa holders, but estimates indicate hundreds of thousands of people hold valid H-1B visas in the U.S. at any time.

In Fiscal Year 2026, the number of eligible H-1B registrations further decreased to about 344,000, with USCIS selecting around 118,660 unique beneficiaries by the end of the first lottery round. The continuation of the beneficiary-centric selection process, where each individual is entered only once regardless of multiple employer registrations, is credited with this decline.

And Trump’s team wonders why Brics is expanding? When India starts selling off its US debt instruments, ( Treasuries, Bonds, notes) who will buy the $7 trillion in debt coming due?

The Fed, further increasing our unprecedented national debt….we are in a debt spiral.

-——India will have to pay 25 per cent tariff -——

India will pay no tariffs.

Tariffs paid on imported Indian goods will be paid by the American purchaser of the goods. The point of the tariff is to raise the price to the American consumer to the point the purchase will be too expensive.

India will quickly cave on their tariffs on US goods just like the EU did. The days of trade negotiators spend months if not years quibbling over minutia are over. Trump plays hardball and knows how to quickly make deals.

As predicted, these were tariffs Trump was going to place on India anyway in order to force it to make a trade deal.

This will have no impact whatsoever on the war.

Trump duped morons like you, Marcus, into thinking otherwise.
