Asylum seekers made 166 million attempts to secure an appointment with U.S. immigration officials through the CBP One App in the past two years, according to internal documents obtained by CBS News. The CBP One allowed nearly one million foreign nationals to enter the United States before President Donald Trump followed through on a campaign promise Monday and immediately shut down the app. First established in October 2020 with a very limited scope, the Biden administration greatly expanded the use of CBP One in January 2023. The app has since enabled migrants to schedule appointments to obtain exemptions at ports of entry and permits them to submit biometric data to federal immigration authorities in order to apply for travel authorization and obtain parole.

⚔️ Study suggests an interstellar visitor may have changed the course of 4 solar system planets,

An object eight times the mass of Jupiter may have swooped around the sun, coming superclose to Mars' present-day orbit before shoving four of the solar system's planets onto a different course. A planet-size object that possibly once visited the solar system may have permanently changed our cosmic neighborhood by warping the orbits of the four outer planets, a new study suggests. The findings may shed light on why these planets' paths have certain peculiar features. For decades, astronomers have debated how the solar system's planets formed. However, most hypotheses agree on the type of orbit the planets should have: circles that are arranged concentrically around the sun and lie on the same plane. (If you viewed them edge-on, you would see only a line.) However, none of the eight planets, including Earth, have perfectly circular orbits. Plus, the planets' paths don't lie precisely on the same plane.

Drug companies report their biggest concern with the incoming Trump administration is the fear that the government will try to ban direct-to-consumer drug ads, according to a new report from The Lever that examines the industry practice. Companies said such a ban would "almost certainly" lead to a drop in drug sales, according to a recent report by industry research firm Intron Health, which claims the return on investment for drug ads is as high as 100%-500%, depending on the drug. The U.S. and New Zealand are the only two countries that allow drug companies to advertise directly to consumers. When President-elect Donald Trump's nominee to lead the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F.

💥 The "Monkey Wrench" sabotage of America - does it beg for an authoritarian response?

Accidents and crime happen, all the time in fact, and generally the American public barely takes notice of the number of such events that occur on a monthly basis. The reason for this is because the vast majority of incidents don't lead to economic and infrastructure damage on a large scale. A disaster has to be pretty extensive to get the attention of the public and usually that attention doesn't last long because most people are still able to go on with their day without much inconvenience. But let's say you are a villain; a terrorist or a social engineer (same thing). Let's say you are a person or group with malicious intent and you have deliberately set out to destroy a country, or a society or a civilization. Do you try to do this with a single elaborately planned event? Probably not. Instead, you would coordinate and encourage thousands of smaller acts of sabotage that go largely unnoticed by the population until infrastructure breaks down and the country is in ruins.

The incoming president wants to improve ties with Xi Jinping after threatening to slap harsh trade tariffs on Beijing, the report says. US President-elect Donald Trump wants to visit China in his first 100 days in office to improve relations with Xi Jinping, as the prospect of a new trade war looms, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday citing sources. The trip would aim to deepen ties with the Chinese leader in the face of geopolitical tensions between the two countries fueled by the stand-off over the self-governed island of Taiwan and Trump's promise to impose tariffs on Chinese imports. However, while people familiar with the matter told the paper that Trump has expressed a certain interest in going, no final decision has been made. On Friday, Trump and Xi spoke on the phone to discuss a range of issues including trade, Taiwan, and the situation with the Chinese-owned Tiktok social media platform, which went dark in the US over an imminent federal ban.
