O-1 visa denial seven day exit
by Flint: Donald Trump
The O-1 visa denial posts are piling up, and the seven-day exit clock is attached. One guy got the news on what was supposed to be a good day. Barely any calls before it landed, and now he figures he has about a week to get out. Hasn't even talked to his attorney yet. The official notice with the reason hasn't shown up. He says he's not going to sit around feeling sorry for himself. Back to work, apparently. The take from the other side: plenty of American workers already here, and the visa system has been gamed for years. Trump put his name on an anti-fraud executive order last Friday, and the enforcement is only going to ramp up. Hire American. That's the whole fix. 🇺🇸

Back to work. you
