Palmer Luckey on H-1B visas:
"You would not believe what I saw in Silicon Valley. The H-1B abuse is insane. It is obviously a scam to replace US workers with, basically, slave labor that canβt ever escape."

US housing demand has collapsed.
US new home sales fell -10.5% MoM in July, to 607,000 units, the lowest in 6 months and far worse than the -1.4% decline expected.
Excluding January 2026, this is the lowest level since November 2022.
New home sales have now fallen in 3 of the last 4 months and are down -6.3% YoY.
The Midwest was hit hardest, with sales plunging -42.7% MoM, to 43,000, the lowest level since 2012.
At the same time, sales in the South, the nation's biggest homebuying region, accounting for more than 60% of the total, fell -13.0% to 383,000, the 2nd-lowest level since January.
This comes as the 30Y mortgage rate hit 6.81%, its highest since August 2025, weighing on homebuyer demand.
The housing market is historically unaffordable right now.
