Until I googled why Juan Lima's parents didn't renew their visas, I didn't realize how complicated immigration to the US can be. It would be helpful if you could interview a knowledgeable person who could explain the intricacies. Thank you.

and an ongoing conflict between those who believe that exercising help to the needs of poor and afflicted we Samaritans know no borders but law abiding citizens who think coming into a different country requires you to know and obey laws want an orderly process here we are now facing two rights, conflict in the classical sense a tragedy we people our representatives have been unable to resolve this what would you do?

I can't find the story. Would you mind posting a link for their story? This is awful. Thank you.

I don't have a link to their story. I learned about the complexity by asking google why they didn't renew their visas. That led me to an explanation of how legal immigration to the US works.

I imagine it is not easy and probably expensive. I can google that information. Thank you!!

Great show.

Let’s not forget (and let’s remind others!) that Elon Musk worked in the U.S. illegally after dropping out of school in 1995, which resulted in him *overstaying his visa*.

He also did NOT have authorization to work while pursuing his startup in the US.

Hey Jim! Love the show! But for some reason for the last week, give or take a day, I have been unable to to watch. I try but the feed is having a load issue. I can see comments and even comment, but can't view or hear video. You have a new format and I think that is causing some viewers to not be able to view. You'll lose viewers if it isn't resolved. Anyway, just an FYI. I'll keep trying to watch live video for a bit as I love your show. Just sucks not being able to see it.. doubt I'm the only one too as the first day lots of people complained of the same thing. But I don't think it's necessary wide spread idk. Cheers.

Hello ! Same issue from my end. I've done all the AI support technical -solving cues and none works. Says it's something to do with my device that's an Android. It works on the computer (browser). Many of us in the chat could chat but nothing else. The stream would freeze after 10-15 seconds.

Same problem with me - it freezes up every few seconds and I can't watch. I went over to YouTube and it was fine there. Other Substack lives are also okay. Whatever the problem is, it's specific to this livestream and (I suspect) the app.

I've had the same problem watching the last three shows live on the Substack app. It's been quite frustrating having the video and audio freeze every 5 seconds. I could watch the show on my computer, but prefer to watch it on my phone.

I found a workaround during today's show and posted it in the live feed. It works perfectly if you go to the Substack website and log in. No issues at all. Having said that, it would be great if it would work normally again on the app.

Same problem with me! I don't seem to have a problem with other substacks and I really miss seeing you live!

It sounds like most people are having a problem on an android device, not on the computer. (It would help to mention what you’re viewing from when you have an issue — it could be that it’s too much bandwidth for the device.)

It’s not likely the source, it’s more the device upon which it’s being viewed and how that handles bandwidth. If it’s just android devices, they might be able to stream all android devices to a slightly lower bandwidth version.

Why did the reporter ask him that question instead of stating that it IS his duty to uphold the constitution.

Trump is not answering the constitution question because he is violating the constitution and plans to continue violating the constitution.

These are the tactics of an Authoritarian regime. Wake-up before it’s too late. Our Democracy will no longer be by July2025.

I will not vote for any Democrat who is an elected representative… because most are doing NOTHING! I’m tired of hearing how each of these politicians feel. They need to Standup for Democracy NOW. Let’s hope we have more Independents coming on board. We don’t want just “speaking up” we the American people want and need ACTION.

the constitution has been revised countless times had the reporter instead of grabbing her pearls asked how would you amend the constitution being so gravely uninformed as are his bros he'd be stunned and a watching public may have learned something oh well

This was such a great show. You asked, “Is this who we are?”

I'm sorry to say, right now, yes. We are the shithole country that tr@mp called Africa. We are because our closest allies and countries around the world believe that's who we are.

My sister and b.i.l. live in Germany and travel all over the EU. This is what they are saying. They tell everyone they're from Canada.

So much damage has been done. It will take generations to repair.

Keep up the good work, Jim!!

The segment about Juan and what has happened to his parents is so heartbreaking. I’ve been crying all day. I am just so burdened with sorrow for what is happening to our country, our people. It’s tragic and already it’s starting. Some of us aren’t going to make it.

I know how you feel. And i am worried about you--i know what it is like to empathize too much, and the toll it can take. Do u pray? If not consider some meditation or exercise, or gathering with positive people to help take your mind off the (endless) teagedies of this era , this regime. Your suffering doesnt help anyone, you or the victims. Do what you can, send victims your love or prayers. But stay well, cultivate hope, we need you in our foght for the country we may lose! ❤️❤️💕

I think Trump, Putin and Netenyuhu should all be arrested. Have a quick trial and put them all in jail, where they belong. All three are only interested in their own pocket.

Can Michael Monday dedicate a session to Stephen Miller? I know Jim has been attacked by him in the press room, and you must have experiences too. He is so dangerous as the true shadow president.

Jim, I feel so bad forcJuam and his parents. They are such an ideal family, and i pray that they and all other mistreated people can have their good lives restored. Thank you so much for having him, Mr. Warren whose name I hope I have correct, and Michael who just joined you.
