Good evening. It's Wednesday, November 12. Welcome to a new episode of System Update, our live nightly show that airs every Monday through Friday at 7 p.m. Eastern on the dot every night, exclusively here on Rumble, the free speech alternative to YouTube.

Tonight, President Trump once again sparked concern and this time even outrage among his most faithful MAGA base by arguing last night that the U.S. must increase the number of H-1B visas.

Those are what enabled foreign workers to work American jobs in the United States because he argued

American workers lack the necessary talents to do these highly skilled jobs and only foreigners can do them.

That was followed up by a Fox News interview given by his Homeland Security Secretary

Kristy Knoem, in which she proudly boasted that the administration is both increasing and

accelerating the issue when it's not only of H-1B visas, but also naturalizations, the process

by which foreign nationals become American citizens.

To say that all of this contradicts the core precepts of the America First Movement is to radically understate the case.

To help us understand all of the implications of these policies for the American worker and the American economy will speak with an expert in exactly this area.

He's Howard University Professor Ron Hira.

He's the author and editor of the book, Outsourcing America,

and a very prolific writer on H-1B visas and other types of outsourcing of American jobs.

Then, both House Democrats and House Republicans today released numerous emails

that they subpoenaed

from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein, including some that explicitly mentioned President Trump

in ways that could at least be politically embarrassing for the president, even if not incriminating.

All of this comes as Trump himself personally is acting very aggressively to try and induce

or even cajole and bully House Republicans

to withdraw their support for a petition that would require the Just Department to release

most of the Epstein files, in other words, for the Trump administration to fulfill its campaign promise

to do so.
