Yeah I think there's probably two types of an Operation Paperclip 2.0: the first for adversarial countries (Russia, Iran, perhaps China if you squint hard enough though that one isn't as easy), and the second for something like "geopolitical benefactors" if that phrase makes sense. Basically, using immigration as a tool to leach top scientists and human capital from places like Russia, and as an out for folks in places under direct threat (Ukraine). Immigration policy as a geopolitical tool is probably a much more fraught policy discussion but at least it would be an honest one.
