Making it hard for foreign students to attend American universities is the single dumbest thing the US government can do. It simultaneously makes America weaker, other countries stronger, and the world as a whole less prosperous. Lose-lose-lose. Hope they change their policy.

I just got out of a meeting with President Biden. He invited a dozen Israelis who had been impacted by the war in the most personal way, to see him. I will write more tonight, but for now what I can say is: President Biden loves Israel, loves the Israeli people, and has our back.

Over the next couple of years, payment diversity will be essential for every merchant. Was fun to talk with @CarolineHydeTV @EdLudlow on @BloombergTV about Accrueโs vision, and discuss the American consumer.
"The reality is we have a $1 trillion of credit card debt in the United States... They should be aware that there's some pain that's going on related to consumer behavior," says Accrue Savings CEO Michael Hershfield https://t.co/VhAE2kakVq

It was great to join @YahooFinance today. Americans have $1 trillion of credit card debt and growing, + almost 30 percent are actively saving for travel - The time is now for @accruesavings. Proud to partner with @CheapOair to bring savings to the the travel industry.
1 in 5 consumers go into debt because of vacations as buy now, pay later becomes more popular with airline travel. "We have to be very careful as Americans to make sure we're spending money we have, not spending money we don't have," says Accrue founder and CEO @Hershfield.

Not mentioned in this @axios article by @margarethmcgill is the urgent need for action on buy now pay later schemes. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has sounded the alarm, but our leaders are not listening. Will they ever? https://t.co/XW8QOH6sBy
