President-elect Donald J. Trump has vowed to slash immigration — both legal and illegal — and ramp up deportations on Day 1. Immigrants are racing to get ahead of the crackdown. And they’re taking whatever steps they can to inoculate themselves from the sweeping measures Mr. Trump has promised to undertake after he is inaugurated on Jan. 20. People with green cards want to become citizens as soon as possible. People in relationships with U.S. citizens are fast-tracking marriage, which makes them eligible to apply for a green card.

Most employers say they're willing to negotiate, and 85% of employees who try for a higher salary, better benefits, or other changes get at least some of what they asked for. I'd estimate that about half of the candidates I've extended an offer to didn't negotiate at all. More likely, people are scared because they don't have much negotiating experience and feel unprepared.

He dreamed that I’d someday make a life in America, where he felt that his opinionated only daughter would thrive. He has made clear that, unlike previous presidents, he couldn’t care less about Taiwan and our hard-won democracy. He says — falsely — that Taiwan “stole” America’s chip business, has dismissed us as a geopolitical trifle and expressed doubt about the U.S. being able to defend Taiwan against China.
