CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Judge voids Trump's $100,000 fee for new H-1B visas
U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin ruled in favor of a group of 20 states that challenged the new fee announced by Mr. Trump in September. The judge found that the Trump administration overstepped its authority by imposing a $100,000 tax on H-1B applications without authorization from Congress.
"The substance and application of the $100,000 payment reveal that it is a tax, regardless of what the payment is called," Sorokin wrote in a 42-page decision.
The judge, appointed by former President Barack Obama, wrote that "there are no statutory powers authorizing [the Trump administration] to implement a $100,000 tax on H-1B petitions."
