budaatum:America is far ahead when it comes to innovation Been ingrained in them to always allow the best immigrants in. That won't change in a long while. Probably ever. I'll give you an example. Democrats oppose border wall , Joe Biden has been auctioning construction materials.By my simple rule , Border walls are good. |

"US President-elect Donald Trump defended the visa program that allows highly skilled foreign workers to immigrate to the US, marking his first comments on an issue that has divided his supporters this week." CNN See who is President now? Elon to the Musk.. . Whatever he wants,he gets it. |

For those who are interested in H1B data , a Twitter user has analyzed 5 years of data . His findings are surprise surprise. Most of the applications are in the tech sector, but there are still hundreds of thousands of other sectors like finance, the big four accounting firms have thousands of them. https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1873174358535110953.html I had mentioned an accountant friend of mine who is in Deloitte . |

basilico:It is damning. Everyone knows the talent-centric visa classes have been abused for years. Mass deportation of illegals was the in. The first step for a holistic overhaul of the immigration system that'll ultimately slash illegal immigration and increase legal immigration. The egotistical loudmouths threw a wrench in that. It can still be saved. But this was a needless own goal. After drilling holes in the boat, Elon and Vivek are getting back in line. Easily fixed by raising the minimum salary significantly and adding a yearly cost for maintaining the H1B, making it materially more expensive to hire from overseas than domestically.Elon 7 hours ago. https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1873191959441084531 I’ve said it countless times in the last 2 years & will say it again: the H-1B system is badly broken & should be replaced with one that focuses on selecting the very best of the best (not a lottery), pro-competitive (no indentured service to one company), and de-bureaucratized.Vivek on the 27. https://x.com/VivekGRamaswamy/status/1872573801416003622 -Lord |

LordAdam16:They have to come down from their pedestal. When the H1B holders get a child on American soil, their pathway to permanent residency is guaranteed. America immigration on paper is good for everyone, but as you noticed it opens and leaves a lot of loopholes. There are republicans and Democrats who want it that way, it's good for business and power Guaranteeing a commensurate pay ensures only specific skillsets not available at home are let in. I've seen comments about the HR departments submitting candidates in a biased manner. |

budaatum:Almost like they knew all along but were gaslighting themselves into believing otherwise. Just because they stood to benefit from his funds buying the election for them. Now they want to be honest. What happened to “the left is jealous of billionaires”? They knew our money was fattening the bank accounts of these billionaires but wanted to make us sound crazy for pointing it out? Who knew? 😒😒😒🙄 |

cococandy:Elon Musk bought the election.... You may be denial because you know very well that Kamala out raised Trump and outspent him by very huge margins. https://www.ft.com/content/c3613e1b-c15d-47b8-a502-400c4114c09e?trk=public_post_comment-text ......... Harris outraised her Republican opponent, with groups including the Democratic National Committee and affiliated fundraising vehicles — among them Super Pacs, which can raise unlimited amounts from individuals — attracting more than $2.3bn and spending $1.9bn. Trump groups and the Republican National Committee took in just over $1.8bn and spent $1.6bn. Democrats have out raised Trump in the last 3 elections and he still beat them. In 2020 Zuckerbucks spent $400 million paying for drop boxes, paying off election workers. He literally lived in the WH pre 2016. Ditto Schmidt of Google Inc, which helped democrats in 2016 literally techwise, and both platforms have been helping the democrats since then in every election. This year X refused to toe the line and the election against a pathetic candidate was too big to rig. Elon spent $250 million going from reports, so 250m out of 1.6 billion bought the election. Listen to yourself please. |

budaatum:Nigerians should be included. My complaint about H1b is why not include Nigerians? Make it open for all instead of only Indians. |

budaatum:I don't know if they are excluded as we don't hear much about Nig and H1B...I think most companies are hiring engineers and scientists from India/Asia. Anyway too much scam news may have spoilt Nigerians chance of such visas (H1b). |

The woke late night hosts abject failure. 98% of the jokes against Trump. Their efforts came to nought. Embarrassment for woke late night hosts as new study shows how their anti-Trump pleas fell on deaf ears Late-night hosts relentlessly made Donald Trump the focus of nearly all of their jokes before the presidential election, but failed to sway the voting, as revealed by a new study. A shocking 98 percent of the jokes made by Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers and Saturday Night Live in the lead up to Election Day made Trump the butt of the joke, according to media watchdog group Media Research Center. As many as 1,428 of the 1,463 political jokes on these shows – from September 3 through October 25 – were targeted at Trump, the study found. ‘That’s a whopping 40:1 ratio or almost 98 percent to 2 percent,’ said MRC analyst Alex Christy, as reported by Fox News. Even when the late-night hosts mocked then-nominee Joe Biden, they often softened the jokes with comments about Trump. In June, Seth Meyers touched on Biden’s age and cognitive decline but then made sure to note Trump’s criminal convictions. Leftist bubble came crashing down Obrigardo. |

armyofone:Or Nigerians in America ain't showing how well enough. USA does need property buyers after all. In the city of San Francisco, prices of mid-tier single-family houses in November have dropped by 15.4% from the peak in May 2022, to $1.39 million, seasonally adjusted, and are back where they’d first been in 2019. October and November were down a tad from the prior three months.https://wolfstreet.com/2024/12/26/san-francisco-house-prices-drop-back-to-2019-condo-prices-to-2015-as-tech-jobs-in-the-city-silicon-valley-evaporate-after-drunken-hiring-binge/ |

The Venezuelan gangs have taken over . Don't arrest a shoplifter if he steals less than $1000. That would cause a drop in housing prices I believe. |

basilico:The National Archivist released photos of Joe Biden meeting with Xi and Hunter Biden Chinese partners. Why it matters. Xi was days into his Silk Road initiative.Joe denied he ever met Chinese who were sending millions to Hunter 20 plus shell companies for no work done. https://nypost.com/2024/12/27/us-news/feds-finally-release-photos-showing-then-vp-biden-meeting-son-hunters-china-biz-partners-days-before-he-leaves-office/?utm_campaign=nypost&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social NARA had planned to release these photographs on October 23, 2024 — thirteen days before Election Day. Lawyers and representatives for President Biden and President Obama delayed NARA’s release of these photos — as they did with other critical records — until after Election Day.” After a FOIA filed in September 2022 the Archivist deliberately delayed to release them.. The FBI and CIA also had them for years so JBiden denials were known to them. The same archivist who started looking to pin a crime on Trump for taking away documents after 2021. JB withdrew Trump security clearances to make him.inelligible to hold on to copies of classified documents. What goes around comes around. This archivist interfered in 2024 elections. Trump bought off Stormy T Daniels (aka STD) silence, NYC secured all his business records and discovered that the reimbursement to Michael Cohen was entered as Legal Expenses not as " paying off STD". Democrat crimes can go round the earth twice. NARA was hiding 99.98% of pages of Joe Biden’s pseudonym emails from Congress. Congress will investigate their actions and drag these bureaucrats for questioning. Popcorn futures look bright. **If I backtrack here, some of you were saying there is no evidence that Joe benefited from China. You bought into his lies despite evidence his whole family getting money wired from China. **

The H-1B fires are ebbing off. Democrats were ecstatic that the issue would tear the republicans apart. Both groups pro and anti have had a discussion ( I suspect Musk was sloshed up) in a way that unites the republicans. Republicans will have to take a common stand on H-1B visas going forward. Major issue ironed out . ***Let me add that much as Trump said he uses H-1B visa holders,it's been pointed out elsewhere that he most likely meant H-2B visas , the temporary permits for mostly hospitality and farming industries. Data doesn't show Trump Org seeking H-1B permits **** |

I've checked the sane Twitter thread, here are the numbers on the southern border CBP contacts with illegals crossing the Southern border Under Biden , this is nothing but a well planned invasion. Data is almost a year old.
