A one-time fee? What a joke. $100,000 isn't even pocket lint to the giant companies that hire H1B scabs. Get serious, Donald.

The administration habit of saying incredibly based and awesome things, then having one of their blonde mouthpieces come back the next day and take a massive steaming dump on the initial promise, is very tiresome.

Yesterday, on camera, Howard Lutnick said that the fee was "$100,000 a year," and he said it applied to "renewals" as well as "first-time" visas. Now Karoline Leavitt is saying it's a one-time fee, and that it does not apply to renewals. Total clown show.
