Trump’s $100K Visa Lottery: Buy Your ‘Einstein’ Pass Now!

In a jaw-dropping move, President Trump tossed the H-1B visa fee from a chewable $10,000 to a kidney-selling $100,000. Tech giants Amazon and Microsoft nervously told their magicked visa holders: 'Stay put or zip back in 24 hours.' But don’t despair, brainiacs! The O-1 'Einstein' visa—meant for those with 'extraordinary ability' (think cook, influencer, or AI wizard)—opens a side door with zero lottery luck needed. Logan Ullyott, O-1 holder and Compass Visas founder, is on his fifth renewal, proving you can keep cashing in forever. IBM’s Tanush Sharanarthi got his after flunking H-1B thrice, touting his six-year AI hackathon judging resume. For under $10K (legal fees included), you too can prove you’re the cream of the crop and dodge Trump’s Vorpal Visa blade.
