👉 Does the executive order on birthright citizenship mean that anyone born to non-citizens after February 20 will not be a U.S. citizen? 👉Why are H-1B and H-4 visa holders called 'non-immigrants' when they are waiting on green cards with the hope of becoming U.S. citizens? 👉Do we need to start carrying around our proof of immigration status in case of an ICE raid? 👉If our children are U.S. citizens, but my spouse and I are on H-1B/H-4 visas awaiting green cards due to the backlog, are we at risk of deportation? If you are an immigrant these are one of the many question that must be bothering you right now.

Ever wondered why Kumbh Mela happens every 12 years? Is it just an ancient tradition, or is there a powerful cosmic reason behind it? Millions gather for this sacred event, but few truly know what determines its timing. Could it be the influence of the stars, planetary alignments, or something even more mystical? For thousands of years, sages and astrologers have followed a divine rhythm that dictates when this grand gathering should take place. But what is this rhythm, and why does it repeat every 12 years? What makes this moment so spiritually powerful that millions travel from across the world to take part? Watch the video to uncover the fascinating astronomical and spiritual significance behind Kumbh Mela!

No @sikh_coalition, we shared a link to the full story earlier and the screenshot. We understand your defensiveness now that your anti-@TulsiGabbard activism is exposed and you’ve conceded that you believe Tulsi is somehow a puppet of Modi and the BJP/RSS. Now that you’re here on our TL, will you apologize for amplifying a misquote of our California staffer that led to physical threats and urgent security measures?

Happy Vasant Panchami! Who needs that silly groundhog when you’ve got the OG Saraswati to bring in the spring? This Vasant Panchami, it's time to celebrate the hindu deity of knowledge and the arrival of brighter days.

The first confirmation hearing in American history beginning with a “Jai Shri Krishna” greeting to the nominee’s parents. The senators might have missed it, but a few million Hindu Americans will not! #IYKYK
Trump's pick for FBI Chief Kash Patel begins his confirmation hearing with 'Jai Shri Krishna' & paying respects to his Mother, Father who flew from India & sister. Family was present at the confirmation hearing. He is also seen wearing Kalawa (holy thread worn by Hindus).

A day before @TulsiGabbard’s confirmation hearing for DNI, @RNS reports that our ED @SuhagAShukla is calling out the dual loyalty slurs that paint Hindu Americans like Tulsi as “inherently suspect” for advocacy that anti-Hindu activists label as “Hindutva.” Read this important piece by @karmarkaricha

We condemn the detestable media campaign targeting @TulsiGabbard rife with rumors, lies and innuendo tied to her Hindu faith and affiliations.
Here we go again! The day before @TulsiGabbard’s confirmation hearing, @WSJ’s @brett_forrest @ceostroff drop a hit piece about an Indian business that had absolutely nothing to do with Tulsi. Completely irrelevant to Tulsi as DNI—but hey, cue the Hindu cult attack line 🤷🏽♀️🧵
