U.S. Visa Restrictions, Reviews and Applicant Suspensions Create Massive Anxiety in India – Millions Pour into DC Lobbyists

 

August 30, 2026 | Sundance |

CTH strongly emphasize two key policy sectors, Maganomics and Immigration enforcement; they go together. We cannot achieve the economic results we want for the American people unless strong and powerful immigration enforcement is in place.

 

While the Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) navigates the deportation and removal process (painfully slow in my opinion), Secretary of State Marco has revoked, blocked and restricted visa entry processes. The State Dept effort is strong, but continually encountering resistance from the Lawfare communists who are trying to destroy U.S. nationalism.

 

NASSCOM (National Association of Software and Service Companies) is an Indian non-governmental trade association and advocacy group that primarily serves the Indian technology industry. Founded in 1988, NASSCOM operates as a nonprofit organization and serves as a key entity within the Indian technology sector. NASSCOM is the primary advocacy group for manipulating the U.S. visa entry system.

 

When we discuss the politics in countries who accept bribes and payments for influence in political decisions, we call that bribery and corruption. However, when the exact same activity takes place in Washington DC, we call it Lobbying. NASSCOM is now spending money to purchase U.S. politicians and look specifically about how they frame the discussion. (emphasis mine):

 

• […]Ameet Nivsarkar, VP in Nasscom, said the association was working on various strategies to limit the adverse impact of the immigration bill. “We are engaging with coalitions and consortiums in the US like the US India Business Council, an independent think-tank. It’s also important for our members and non-members to be a part of the advocacy through multiple engagements that requires having local representatives in the US or even talking to their customers to raise the issue on their behalf,” he said.

 

The immigration bill seeks to make work visas like H-1B more expensive and difficult to obtain for companies that already have a high proportion of their US staff on such visas. Infosys, for instance, is said to have almost 90% of their 15,000 employees in the US on such visas. If these visas become difficult to obtain,it will compel Indian IT companies to significantly alter their business models. They would either have to _hire many more local Americans, which would be expensiv, or find ways to do more of the work offshore, which would be difficult. Any such changes would put Indian IT companies at a disadvantage against their global competitors who have a strong local American presence. {SOURCE}

 

As noted by Amanda Louise on X: “[NASSCOM’s] concern wasn’t that jobs would go unfilled because America lacked skilled workers.It was that companies like Infosys would have to “hire many more local Americans, which would be expensive.”

 

• “Americans weren’t described as unavailable. Americans were described as the more expensive alternative.

 

• And they acknowledged the other half of the problem.. companies with a “__strong local American presence”would have a competitive advantage if visa-dependent companies lost easy access to that labor.

 

• That tells Americans exactly what this business model does. Use visa labor to lower costs.Compete against companies that hire more Americans. Win their contracts. And now those American-employing companies have fewer jobs to offer too.

 

The American worker loses twice.

 

So why are we still debating what these visa programs are being used for? Their statements tell us the incentive. The immigration filings show us the scale. The layoffs show us who pays the price.

 

How much more evidence does Congress needbefore it answers why U.S. immigration policy gives companies a competitive advantage for hiring visa workers instead of Americans?”

Key Zelensky staff arrested over money laundering to bailout ex-minister 1/2

 

Officials allegedly forced a state-owned bank to suspend anti-fraud monitoring so millions in surety for detained energy minister German Galushchenko could be lodged

Published 28 Aug, 2026 18:30 |

 

Ukraine’s central bank has launched an anti-money laundering probe into several lenders who processed a bail payment for former Justice and Energy Minister German Galushchenko, amid fresh allegations of high-level corruption in Kiev.

 

Earlier this month, Western-backed anti-corruption agencies accused a group of officials, including a deputy head of Vladimir Zelensky’s office, of laundering about $3.3 million in cash to secure Galushchenko’s release on bail.

 

Galushchenko, who was arrested and charged with money laundering and membership of a criminal organization after attempting to leave Ukraine, is also a suspect in a separate corruption case linked to Timur Mindich, self-exiled in Israel but known widely as ‘Zelensky’s bagman’.

 

Ukrainian state-owned Sense Bank temporarily disabled fraud detection systems at the same time that some $1.7 million in cash – intended for Galushchenko’s bail – was allegedly laundered and processed, records released by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO) indicate.

 

Sense Bank is the former Ukrainian branch of Alfa Bank, which Kiev nationalized in 2023 under the guise of enforcing sanctions on Russia.

 

Ukraine’s central bank said Thursday that it is also investigating several other institutions linked to the bail payments.

 

Mindich’s man in the government

Galushchenko was arrested in February and charged with large-scale money laundering in connection with an alleged criminal network operated by Mindich, who himself fled Ukraine to Israel after NABU accused him of extorting $100 million in kickbacks from state atomic energy company Energoatom.

 

Galushchenko was duly released on $3.3 million bail in late June, upon receipt of cash by the authorities reportedly from four dubious sources.

 

NABU surveillance audio files suggest that Zelensky’s deputy head of office, Irina Mudraya, and others, used influence at Sense Bank to convert bags of cash into bank transfers to the account of the High Anti-Corruption Court. Investigators filmed the cash being delivered, according to the case materials. Mudraya, who is accused of administering the scheme, was subsequently arrested and fired.

Who controls Sense Bank?

Recordings linked to Mindich previously leaked to the media include a discussion between one of his associates and a former adviser to the bank’s CEO about impending changes to its supervisory council, and during which the body’s current head, Nikolay Gladyshenko, was identified as a suitable candidate.

 

Gladyshenko and the bank’s current head, Aleksey Stupak, allegedly approved the bail payment scheme. Sense Bank’s director of financial monitoring, Lyudmila Snigur, who has since been suspended, was reportedly threatened with dismissal unless her department skipped human reviews of transactions made during “maintenance” of the automated systems.

 

Control relinquished by ‘Israeli refugee Timur’

The Mudraya case materials depict Sense Bank as being in a vulnerable position and seeking new protection with the permission of “Israeli refugee Timur” – presumably Mindich. This allegedly made the bank susceptible to “requests” to launder money for Galushchenko.

 

“People from Sense Bank today were like a balm to a wound,” Mudraya allegedly said after bank executives met officials from Zelensky’s office. “They crawled to us like kittens: ‘Please, please, take us!’”

 

Doubts about Ukraine’s anti-laundering system

NABU’s allegations have further embarrassed the central bank as its reputation disintegrates in the fallout from the corruption surrounding Zelensky. The regulator launched an investigation into Gladyshenko in May after his possible links to Mindich became public, but maintains that it did not have enough evidence before the latest revelations to declare him unsuitable for the position.

 

Gladyshenko announced he was recusing himself from his role, but this “did not exclude his actual influence on the bank’s operations,” the central bank conceded last week.

 

The central bank insists the Mudraya case demonstrates that its anti-money-laundering system is effective,but has confirmed that it is also investigating other banks that may also have participated in the cash-to-bail scheme run out of Vladimir Zelensky’s office.

Iceland votes on its future in knife-edge EU referendum

 

High turnout and early results have exposed deep divisions over sovereignty, fishing rights and whether the founding NATO member should move closer to Brussels

Published 29 Aug, 2026

 

Icelanders have turned out in unusually large numbers to decide whether to reopen accession talks with the European Union, with the founding NATO member split almost exactly down the middle over its future relationship with Brussels.

 

Polling stations closed at 10 PM local time on Saturday, with the latest partial results showing “no” narrowly ahead after an exceptionally tight count. With around 152,000 votes counted, the nationwide tally stood at 50.1% for “no” and 49.9% for “yes,” as election officials warned that a reliable final result might not emerge until later on Sunday.

 

Icelandic Prime Minister Kristrun Frostadottir, who backed reopening negotiations, said she hoped the extraordinarily close contest would neither divide the country nor leave lasting wounds.

 

“The main thing is that we remain united … whether the result is yes or no,” she said.

 

Interest in the referendum has been exceptionally high. More than 63,000 people – close to a quarter of the electorate – had already cast advance ballots by Friday night. Turnout on election day was also running ahead of the 2024 parliamentary election in parts of Reykjavík.

 

The ballot asks voters a single question: “Should Iceland resume accession negotiations with the European Union?”

 

A “yes” would not automatically make Iceland an EU member. It would restart negotiations abandoned more than a decade ago, with any eventual membership agreement expected to be put to voters in a second referendum. The vote itself is legally advisory, although Frostadottir has pledged to respect the result.

 

The campaign went down to the wire. A final Maskína survey put the “yes” camp at 50.4% and “no” at 49.6%, while a Gallup poll shortly beforehand showed essentially the reverse picture, with opponents narrowly ahead.

 

Iceland first applied to join the EU in 2009 after its devastating banking collapse and began negotiations the following year. The process was suspended after a change of government in 2013 and effectively abandoned in 2015 as the economy recovered and enthusiasm for surrendering powers to Brussels faded.

 

Supporters of restarting the talks have argued that closer EU integration could bring greater economic and currency stability and give the country of fewer than 400,000 people more influence over rules it already adopts through the European Economic Area. The country is also part of the Schengen zone and deeply integrated into European markets.

 

Opponents have focused heavily on sovereignty, agriculture and, above all, Iceland’s fishing grounds, warning that eventual membership could subject the strategically vital industry to the EU’s Common Fisheries Policy.

 

The geopolitical argument has also loomed unusually large. Frostadottir’s allies have portrayed the EU as additional protection in an increasingly unstable world, particularly after US President Donald Trump’s repeated threats to take control of neighboring Greenland.

 

Unease was further fueled in January when Trump’s nominee for ambassador to Iceland, Billy Long, joked that the country itself could become the “52nd state” of the US, with him serving as governor.

 

Euroskeptics, meanwhile, have argued that Brussels itself is becoming increasingly militarized and confrontational. Iceland is already a founding NATO member and maintains extensive military ties with Washington.
