I'm willing to bet real money this list originated out of Palantir and then found its way into Stephen Miller's gross hands.

All that said, there is zero chance I'd ever return to the US as a tourist under these terms.
NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.

The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.

Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

This is a fantastic thread and I'd actually like to elabourate on it in my own experience.

I am a writer by trade - I'm a senior proposal writer by day and have worn a dozen different freelance hats over the last 25 years. I am exactly the kind of job AI executives see replacing.
I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

There's something I just don't get. AI fans utter and complete glee that AI will in theory eliminate every possible way people make a living. These ghouls can't think of a better world than abject poverty for everyone but a select few.

The next article is absolutely someone bemoaning that Americans aren't getting married until late or having enough kids.

Just because the usual contrarians are out in force to state that turkey is dry as an objective fact, I would like to remind everyone that the ways to ensure your turkey (white and dark meat) isn't dry doesn't need 48 hours of brining, spatchcocking a 22lbs bird, or deep frying anything.

Look, a lot of people are dunking on new DHS action Chief Security Officer Iwona B Horyn announcement, but seriously, everyone should hold judgement until after signing up for her remarkable OnlyFans account. She's really talented, people.

Being a journalist and eating three meals a day were mutually exclusive states in the early-mid 2000s, where as the proposal writing gig I took was relatively well compensated, always in demand, and suited my antipathy towards actual labour.

Thump and Mamdani posed infront of FDR's painting in the White House with a thumbs up and Trump is the one who released it as a personal win? Did someone lock Stephen Miller in a closet for the whole visit?
All this the day after calling for 6 Dems to be hung? This is normal? Dude is acting f-ing crazy......

Somewhere, Elise Stefanik and her team are watching Trump set fire to their entire strategy to centre their gubernatorial campaign around opposition to Mamdani as the ultimate form of evil in America.
November 21, 2025 at 9:55 PM
Mamdani comes off as very smart, very agile, and clearly knew what buttons to push with Trump, likely flattering his supposed 'NYC developer' skills. Doesn't give and inch or kowtow at all, but doesn't take any of the bait during an embarrassing show from the press corps.

We used to think putting a heavy metal tape into a Teddy Ruxpin was subversive.

I'm not surprised at this outcome. I'm more surprised how tone deaf the GOP Senators were thinking the House would just swallow a seven figure payout without a peep.
The House has voted unanimously to repeal the provisions in the shutdown package which allow GOP Senators to sue the federal government and get as much as $1 million in damages - because the feds looked at their phone records in the Jan. 6 investigation.

I cannot imagine anything more hellish than not being willing to accept the death of a loved one so much that you curse your child to bond with a simulacrum that at any moment could get twisted and encourage them towards self-harm or expose them to explicit content.

Somehow I doubt 'hey, it wasn't like she was in elementary school' is the strong argument they think they're making.

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.
