I know a lot of people consider this to be eugenics but all I can think about is an old Army friend who's youngest kid has a gene mutation which gave him eye cancer as a baby and now bone cancer at age 11 and wouldn't it be amazing if we could spare future kids that kind of torture.

The White House is bragging about reducing immigration (including refugees) from Muslim-majority countries to near 0. The U.S. is a nation of 340 million or so people. It was letting in just 18,000 people or less per month from these same countries prior to Jan 2025. Obvious anti-Muslim bigotry.
