Trump’s epic surrender; Netanyahu’s associate allowed to leave US after arrest

In the first development, the US State Department suspended the visa scheme that allowed children from Gaza to come to the US for medical treatment after one of Trump supporters raised objections.

Rifat Jawaid says that both these developments should worry US nationals.
