  2. The US administration's push to formalize a
    $100,000± H-1B visa fee bypasses federal
    court rulings, signaling an illiberal shift away
    from democratic checks and balances.
    Claiming to "protect American workers" is a facade: no domestic wages are raised, while tech innovation, healthcare, and higher
    education are crippled simply to evade the
    rule of law and consolidate executive power.

  7. 🚨 $103,265 H-1B VISA FEE RETURNS AFTER A JUDGE BLOCKED THE EARLIER VERSION

    WASHINGTON — August 24, 2026 — The Trump administration is attempting to permanently impose a **$103,265 fee on certain new H-1B skilled-worker visas**, even after a federal judge ruled that an earlier version of the policy was unlawful.

    Before Trump’s proposal, typical H-1B visa costs were generally in the range of roughly:

    **$2,000–$5,000.**

    The proposed charge:

    **$103,265.**

    H-1B visas are heavily used in technology, engineering, research, medicine and higher education.

    A federal judge blocked the administration’s previous $100,000 version of the fee in June.

    The administration is appealing.

    But it is also trying another route:

    **formal federal rulemaking.**

    That creates an important rule-of-law question.

    What happens when a court blocks a presidential policy and the administration attempts to reconstruct essentially the same policy through a different legal mechanism?

    The proposal would not apply to every H-1B holder. Renewals and some foreign graduates already inside the United States could be treated differently.

    Supporters argue H-1B reform is needed to prevent companies from replacing American employees with cheaper foreign workers.

    Employers and universities argue the program is essential for recruiting highly specialized talent.

    But the legal fight is now about something bigger than immigration.

    **How far can the executive branch go without Congress?**

    The EU has been urged to hit back at Donald Trump’s administration’s sanctions campaign against the International Criminal Court – by invoking a little-known ‘blocking statute’ that would ban companies and banks from complying with the sanctions.

  48. The Great Silence at JAMB’s Send-Off: When Snakes Swallow Millions and the Press Swallows Its Tongue by Lawson Akhigbe

    At the recent television and press send-off for the immediate past Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Professor Ishaq Oloyede, this ritual reached a high art. The man who spent a decade at the helm was rightly credited with making JAMB more technology-driven, more orderly, and less of a cash-and-carry bazaar than the one he inherited. Fair enough. Reforms happened. Remittances improved. The board stopped resembling a particularly leaky colander. One can acknowledge progress without descending into hagiography.
