    see the Observer's Sissi Cao on whether Kellyanne Conway fears that
    Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch will allow Ron DeSantis to outflank
    Donald Trump from the right on the National Question by inviting the
    likes of Mike Emmons onto their campaign stump: <URL:https://observer.com/2023/01/google-pause-green-card-filing-layoff/>
    | The email was posted by a Google employee Jan. 19 on Team Blind, an
    | anonymous social networking site for verified tech workers. Another
    | Team Blind user shared the same announcement.
    |
    | Google confirmed the pause of PERM filing in a statement and said
    | the decision was made "as a result of tech companies' well
    | publicized hiring and staffing reductions" in recent weeks and to
    | ensure "compliance with the Department of Labor regulations." Other
    | companies have similarly paused such applications, according to a
    | Google spokesperson.
    |
    | Suspending PERM applications will most affect U.S.-based foreign
    | workers whose temporary work visas are expiring and those seeking
    | permanent residence in the country.

    DHS secretary @ChadFWolf. Why did Chad Wolf allow Chris Krebs to
    undermine free speech on his watch?" - Emerald Robinson <URL:https://twitter.com/EmeraldRobinson/status/1616100489497804802>
