Immigration progressI Trump seeks 'long shot' 2nd try on birthright at SCOTUS; 5th Circuit rules cheap tuition for illegals is, well, illegal; historic H1-B criminal cases; and new deep state firings.
H1Bs need to be banned entirely. Any company that fires Americans should not be allowed to hire foreigners. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is a traitor and he appointed a fellow Indian with no gaming experience to run XBOX, then she laid off 3,000 people and was appointed to a Fed board. Unacceptable. This is happening at a mass scale all over corporate America.
Re: H1B and cue again to me screaming into the void ad nauseam about my 29 year-old biomedical engineer daughter with THREE patents under her belt for kidney dialysis products, being replaced by said H1Bs... and having to grind her ever loving brain into contract gig work, begging for start up money and having to pet sit to make ends meet with no benefits and minimal pay. And cue to my other newly married daughter who is trying to save up a "baby delivery fund" so she and her husband (a LEGAL) immigrant can actually have one "smol" little legal child.... today's post hit hard and gave me some hope...
My brother-in-law worked for IBM for decades, and watched as it was hollowed out of Americans and replaced with H1Bs. Then his son, computer whiz, brought up in Silicon Valley, with advanced computer degrees, was unable to get a job in San Jose, and had to go to Washington to work for a foreign owned company.
These are agregious. But it isnāt just that. Its also companies choosing to āhireā temp employees from foreign countries for just a year and refusing to hire longer because they would pay more. So they go back out and hire a new temp. All to avoid hiring a real worker at American wages. Persistently hiring from Mexico and India on temp work. *Its manipulating the system* My husbands company does this. Sure wish more companies would become fully ethical instead of always thinking how they can save a damn dollar.
The VISA program began under President Reagan over four decades ago. This was the beginning of the mass invasion of the US. The VISA program needs to be shut down entirely. Under Trump, the mass invasion continues with the VISA program. And still no mass deportations and still no wall.
Retired British Army Colonel warns that civil war between Britons and immigrants is now inevitable
There is very likely to be civil war in Britain, Col. (Ret.) Richard Kemp said earlier this year.
āIām not talking about the American Civil War,ā he said. āIām talking about something more like Northern Ireland but on a much more intensive scale, where you have the indigenous British and some of the immigrant population and the British government all on three different sides fighting against each other. And Iād be very surprised if that doesnāt happen.ā
I think you might see this catching on in other countries where the immigrants have more rights than the citizens, like France, Germany, Canada and any other country where immigrants are taking over
Microsoft CEO is tip of the iceberg and hides what's so rampant below... from another comment I made already:
Please encourage anyone interested in the H-1B visa issue(Industry) or connected to the Administration to consider promptly using EEOC to address "low hanging fruit":
Countless small H-1B "job shops"/staffing companies (usually run by recent immigrants or originally H-1B visa holders themselves) exist through out the nation. These companies surface business is allegedly "IT/Computer Programmer Analysts"; but what they really are is job shops hiring almost exclusively people on H1B visa and almost exclusively all from the same country of origin the owner is from (NOT the U.S.)... It is mind numbing how EEOC has not looked at any of these companies employment rosters and said: "Why do all the names on this list sound like everyone comes from India? and then looked into it and found... They do all come from India. 90%+ on H1B visas or OPT; rarely some on green cards... Point being, it should be simple for them (EEOC) to prove employment discrimination OR at least bring the case and put a quick end to those engaged in such fraud.
a similar "business" exists to import, hire, license CDL drivers. One even advertises that the trainers speak several languages. Like Urdu. Good to know semi drivers can read road signs in Urdu.
I think that's the plan at least for Trump. Some of India's universities have been selling fake degrees. MSM will start reporting it ........eventually.
100% agree. The oligarchs and fraud businesses that push for H1B's will try to couch in either/and 1. National security!!!!! and/or 2. Can't find anybody!!!!!!
First, if it is truly national security, then why would someone OUTSIDE the U.S. have info/experience that we can't find INSIDE the U.S. (with over 300 million people here). This isn't like the 1940's where Nazi's were mysteriously disappearing in Germany, only to conveniently re-appear, often under different names, in the U.S. and Soviet Union because the Germans had a more advanced rocket program (or, unfortunately, a much more advanced psyop-making structure).
Second, if they can't find anybody, they are not really trying. In this era of ubiquitous communication, internet, AI, and coming quantum computing, there is always someone who can fill a position from inside the USA. It is just a matter of cost. Instead we get half-baked search efforts because the consulting firms (at least with IT) make a bleep-load of money providing people. To get any H1B approved for potential filling, a position should have to be listed for 12+ months in a national database with clear and reasonable criteria. Meaning no stupid idiosyncratic requirement put in to make the position unfillable. Let's get real. Most of these IT positions are to replace American workers with less skilled Indians and eastern Europeans. I see it all the time since I work in the industry. We graduate millions of STEM workers who are Americans each year. H1B's are just a carving out of the Middle Class.
And to go along with that, we need to tarriff 200-300% all overseas foreign IT worker positions. I can't emphasize this enough (or even if H1B is shut off, they just move even more jobs overseas.) That will have two benefits. First, it will cut down on cutting people here, and honestly, the quality of work will go up within a year across the board. I was around before the mass offshoring occurred, and have lived through the drop in quality and longer turn around times because of that. It wasn't like this back 25 years ago. Bugs getting into production were much lower. People took pride in their work. And the amount of bloated code was a lot less becuase people applied their brains to solutioning properly.
Finally, why are the Medical schools allowed to operate with impunity on limiting how many seats there are? We see the repercussions with all the foreigners now in the medical field at all levels. Kids here who work their butts off and get decent grades in college are turned aside. "Not enough seats". The Medical Oligarchy is a real problem.
HR departments and schools are not calling over to India or the Middle East or Asia or Eastern Europe to verify Kumar or Mohammed or Muchen or Vlad actually have the credentials (and the schools they list are legit and of high quality). It's a fraud.
Agree with most of your stuff, but regarding the limitation of medical school seats one has to understand that physicians (and lawyers) create their own demand. If you add more physicians total costs actually increase. It's been studied and proven. It's a separate issue as to who should occupy those seats.
Disagree on lawyers. [Putting aside the fact that every profession has seen salary inflation for the past two decades] It has become much easier to go to school to be a lawyer. It is up to the person to pass the bar, but much easier now than in the 1980s to get a law degree. H1B for physicians run around 8,000-11,000 a year. 25% of the US physician workforce (per Grok). These aren't "jobs Americans won't do".
If the medical field (And particularly doctors and PA's) wants, it could have supply of seats meet demand for degrees within 1-2 years. They don't want a lot because they are protecting their profession for those who have made it. If we are admitting H1B people for doctor/PA and other highly skilled med positions, that means the current US system set up is deficient in meeting true demand. This didn't just occur. It has been going on for decades now. I've known many people with stellar grades and MCATs who can't enroll. That is a problem. Accrediting bodies like LCME and COCA play a role too. Then you throw in Federal Funding, residency programs (1997 Medicare residency cap), etc. Road block and hurdle after hurdle. But we are to then take in subpar foreign doctors, etc.
The demand for healthcare services is only increasing per the population aging. That is the demand. Americans have been shackled as to how many in this country can help meet that demand. There is no valid reason, especially in the age of AI, abundant office space (since so many moved to WFH), retired docs and other medical professionals willing to teach, that we shouldn't be able to supply all our own doctors. It's about money and control, plain and simple. Everyone fearful of their own bit of the pie, which results in bad outcomes for the US middle class, the economic ladder, and timely and accurate medical care.
This is all fixable. Instead we get the equivalent of "NASA" logic as to why things can't be done, so nothing changes until someone like an Elon comes along and does it better, faster, cheaper. No difference here.
Just as we have recently been reminded how compromised Mitch McConnell is & has been related to his wife's nationality, the same is true for JD Vance and any other elected politicians with similar family connections; including Rubio.
While McConnellās Chinese wife may be a different kettle of fish (a la Feinsteinās chauffeur, Fang Fang, etc.), I would be more concerned with judges from other countries who become US citizens, and then drop absurd progressive rulings.
Maybe also explain how your posting connects to H1b visas. Was either of the spouses here on visas? I'm thinking no. Another glass not only half empty but containing only snakes and scorpions comment.
If you're talking about Trump, remember that he sides with the owners, not the workers, when it comes down to real life.
Hence, the "hospitality" need for illegal immigrants, and the high tech "need" for H1B immigrants. He has sympathy for the owners desire for cheap labor.
What happened to the practice of midwives and mothers having their babies at home? Surely that would cost far less. Plus it might protect the newborns from the vaxx protocol.
The practice is slowly growing, but 1) not covered by health insurance and 2) limited number of midwives! All the young mothers I know who have had a home birth, have been extremely pleased and have or would do it again!
I would say itās stagnant. In the 80ās, many of my friends and I were having home birth. Yes not covered by insurance but today the cost is a little higher. Most of my grandchildren were also born at home. The death stats are false. You get better care and midwives are selective in who they take, considering the motherās general health and how she takes care of herself.
We have to remember though, Elizabeth, that home births of past generations also had high mortality rates for mothers and babies. It is not all an idealized situation. I gave birth to a child who had the cord wrapped around his neck in the womb, and would have died in a natural birth. He lived due to a C-section in hospital.
Your claims remind me of the pro vaccination folks that say the decline in deaths from diseases was thanks to vaccines, whereas any review of the data shows that decline occurred prior to the introduction of vaccines and is largely attributable to better sanitation and nutrition. If you look into the studies of birth outcomes in āfirst worldā countries in recent decades comparing hospital and midwife assisted home births, the latter is safer. Now there are issues about the population that chooses a home birth (high risk pregnancies are usually diverted, etc.) but you simply canāt claim that a home birth is higher risk. The example of the umbilical cord wrapped around the neck was discussed with my first midwife. When the cord was loose enough, she would simply reach in and un loop it. In one instance, where it was very tight, she transferred by ambulance and applied pressure to keep the baby from crowning. She had previously been a nurse in a hospital and felt that baby would likely have died without the close surveillance she provided at home. Who knows. I just wouldnāt assume a hospital environment is safer for all women.
I am very careful what I believe about vaccines. I did not get the COVID vaccine because I smelled a rat. Having a hospital birth is not exactly the same thing.
Elizabeth above, who I was replying to on the birth matter, seems as if she was promoting home birth for the sake of being fashionable. Which I object to. Because many women in the 80s and onward did choose it to be seen as progressive and fashionable.
Those of us who experienced the dehumanization and forced separation of hospital births before the "fad" of home births started, chose home birth to avoid those atrocities, not to be fashionable.
You can thank the fact that hospitals started kinder and gentler birthing practices, (even if they do charge for holding the baby, via "skin-to-skin" charges), to the women who simply refused to subject themselves to the arbitrary and authoritarian rules of the maternity hospitals at that time.
It was a opting out of tyranny, just like refusing the GMO injectables, and it made a difference.
Mrs. RW, I hear you. But it is not all that clear-cut. I have expertise in the work of John Bowlby on the Attachment System, so I would be the first to tell you that Attachment matters. And not only at birth. The entire first three years are crucial.
However, living amongst normal human beings, I also saw that many women I knew of child-bearing age were indeed making their birthing decisions based on fads and fashions -- the same way many of them lived their lives in general. Social contagion can be powerful. Behaviour is not always motivated by noble virtue, alas.
Glad to hear it, Melissa. I was told my son would not have been that fortunate.
I have given birth to five children, actually, including twins. I put a lot of thought into the pregnancies and the births, so that my children were given the best and safest opportunities I could offer.
But life can be a joker.....in later years their father unleashed Parental Alienation on all of us (not that it is a feminist issue, because it isn't).
Neither home births nor hospital births should be shamed. Everyone has to make their own choice. More power to the woman who researches well and makes the decision based on her and her childās needs.
I am a retired Ob-Gyn. Midwife deliveries can often be a great experience, but not always. And there are differences between midwife deliveries at home, and those in a hospital. Home deliveries can be appropriate for women who have already had an uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery in the past. And, even then, an obstetrical emergency can occur in the blink of an eye without warning. Hospital deliveries are much safer, and are especially important for women having their first baby. One of the later comments talks about an OB sitting in the back of the room during a midwife delivery. That was a very gracious thing to do.
@Dr. Sherrylyn- sitting in the back of the room is nice and all but what happens when there's an emergency? There would be no medical equipment to take over.
@A- having the cord wrapped around his neck is not usually a problem since he wasn't using his lungs. When delivered, they simply remove the cord from the neck.
It was my Obstetrician who told me this, Kittynana. I assumed that he knew about such things. If it was such an easy fix at delivery, why didn't he just do that? I was not going to find out the hard way by having my son die at birth before I believed him.
Btw, this happened at a Canadian hospital, where there was no profit incentive for them to do a C-section instead. In fact, just the opposite. They always try to avoid unneccessry medical procedures if they can.
Home births were the big fashion back in the 80s in my area. Until a home-birth advocate was charged with the death of a newborn due to negligence.
Not that hospitals are all perfect either. There is an NHS hospital in England that is like a horror-zone for mothers giving birth, and for the newborns.
You know, I agree with that, Mrs. RW. I have always noted that doctors are rarely charged with negligence when they mis-diagnose or miss the diagnosis, in cases where they should have known. But when parents miss a medical issue in their children, even when they are acting in good faith (and have no medical training), they tend to be charged,
All those medical mistakes or misses out there by doctors are often just shrugged off.
My cousin and his wife have 4 children, 3 of which were born at home because the woman labors so quickly there is no time to get to the hospital. She literally can pop a baby out. The 3 younger children were all born in the shower. There were no complications and all the babies were/are very healthy.
Midwife assisted birth is still 3k and up. We've had 6 babies with midwives, and our total bill for all 6 is the same as my Sister in law's birth bill from a local hospital for her 1 baby - $20,000.
It was a popular way of birthing during Covid, to avoid the medical complex taking over. I think itās actually becoming quite popular among the health-conscious set.
I had my 2nd and 3rd child at home (province of Quebec at the time). Wonderful experiences, but challenging to find a supportive doctor to work with the midwife (ordering bloodwork, assisting if hospital transfer needed, etc. At the time, midwives were not recognized by the medical profession. Shortly afterwards, the provinces took steps to āacceptā midwifery, establishing university programs and programs to āgrandfatherā (or grandmother) experienced midwives into the certification. While there were definite advantages, such as having costs covered by our provincial health plans, the independence of midwives was lost. They are now trained in the standard medical practice and are required to encourage all the standard protocols like vaccines. They do less homebirths and are more often the primary caregiver in a hospital setting.
Of my three children, I only had one at home, and that is the only birth that I remember with fondness.
The two hospital births were horrendous, each in its own way. Sure, women have been convinced that hospital births are safer, infant and maternal mortality rates in the US notwithstanding, but I think it's very sad.
My daughter will be having her first in about 2 months. Going to a birth center for ~4K. She will submit the super bills to insurance afterwards. Since sheās vx injured - she wanted ultimate control over the birth to protect that baby. Also paying a doula in case she needs a hospital transfer. Then God willing - home birth next. Lots of her friends are doing this now - as people have opened their eyes since the Cvd debacle and donāt trust traditional medical doctors.
I was stunned by the supposed cost of having a baby. Iām going to survey my many young church friends who have lots of children. I donāt think it costs that much in small town Oklahoma, but I am curious.
Dave, check into Dr. Margaret Aranda's stack (the Rebel Patient, I think) for info on this. The births of my own 3 (1978-87) were assisted by certified nurse midwives, at Booth Maternity Hospital in Phila--a Salvation Army hospital where the CNMs were staff--an ob was required to be present in the birthing room, but he just sat in a chair at the back of the room.
It goes in and out of fashion. Thirty years ago it was promoted by the lefties attempting to show how "progressive" they were. Not to protect newborns, really.
That is not a statement of complete truth. One is cooperation in their country for a limited period of time. The other is complete integration of military and intelligence..stop comparing oranges to apples.
I guess you never heard of Five Eyes, then, where intelligence is shared between the US, Canada, UK, Australia, etc. In any event perhaps actually READ the proposed directive. Complete āintegrationā? How about sharing weapons research, production and technology, which is what it actually states. Perhaps you are unaware that the US sells military weapons to Israel, who then IMPROVE them and give those improvements back to the US.
For all the people who are triggered due to āIsraelā, read section 224 here: https://armedservices.house.gov/uploadedfiles/fy27_ndaa_chairmans_mark_-_final.pdf Itās about sharing TECHNOLOGY, RESEARCH, etc., and whether you accept it or not, Israel is equal to (if not superior to) the US in technology. It is NOT ācombining militaryā so that we ācontinue to fight Israelās warsā. It might be an idea to actually read the sentence before posting your opinion on the directive.
Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs directly bankrolled the multi-million dollar geofencing campaign targeting American Christian churches. Driven by public records, the operation marks a major, state-funded effort to shore up declining geopolitical support among U.S. Evangelicals.
Wow, do you mean Israel is doing legitimate advertising, unlike the regime change and all other sorts of corruption we do (or did before Trump) to hundreds of countries via USAID and other agencies???
If the birthright citizenship appeal doesn't work, I can't wait to see what card Trump plays next--because you know he's got something in mind. On thinking about it, his last name describes exactly what he does: trumps his opposition. š
Those Mexican billboards adds to Democratsā portfolio of polycrisis events. It makes the terrible Supreme Court decision look even more terrible and dumb. Trump will somehow leverage this into a win for America.
Let's hope and pray. The ruling highlights a major problem with lawmaking. The letter of 14A practically mandates birthright citizenship, but the spirit of the amendment canāt possibly agree with that. If we assume the SCOTUS majority meant the nation no harm (an impossibly heavy assumption), we might agree with Emerson that "a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines."
Another great American killed by an illegal alien driving a tractor trailer that canāt read signs and doesnāt speak English. But the illegal worked for cheap!
Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Michael E. Pahira Jr., 44, was struck and killed on July 1, 2026. He was conducting a routine inspection of a commercial truck on the shoulder of Interstate 81 in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, when another tractor-trailer drifted off the roadway and hit him.
The incredible thing is with the thousands and thousands killed by illegal aliens in all different ways, mostly violent, when you mention it to a communist democrat they say nothing as though they donāt care. All the democrats stayed seated at the state of the union address when Trump asked if Americans were more important than illegals, what more do you have to see?
Many in powerful government positions are simply addicted to cheap labor and cheap votes. Birthright citizenship is just another tool to keep Americans wages down. This country is addicted to cheap labor. I canāt tell you how many construction jobs Iāve lost to cheap uninsured under the table illegal labor.
My new neighbor has had work going on at her house for months. No one there but the business owner speaks English. My neighbor doesnāt care sheās saved thousands Iām sure. Iām glad the house is finally getting fixed up but every day I think of American blue collar workers that lost another job, its disgusting!
Living in a rural area, I found it convenient to order some things from Walmart online instead of driving into town. To my surprise, instead of shipping those items like amazon does, they started delivering orders by local drivers. Seemed fine until my orders were dropped off at a neighbors instead of my home so I had to do find them. After this happened multiple times, I called customer service. I had added detailed directions to my account that explains in simple terms how to locate my drive way. The customer service rep said, "Not to sound racist, but most of the drivers don't speak English." I won't order from them again, but I was impressed they admitted the reason for the botched deliveries! Not very reassuring to know that when I head out on the road, not everyone with a license can even read the street signs and warnings in English!
This fries me. I paid my car tabs before renewal. Got a letter today saying DMV wouldn't process my renewal (although they did cash the $76 check) because the car has to be insured. State wanted the company, expiration date and policy number. What the hell for? I told them I'm (still) insured, the ID cards are in the glove box, my wallet and the filing cabinet for ME when and if I'm in a wreck. You don't need ID to vote, you can deliver a foreign baby and win the US citizen lotto, but the State needs my insurance policy number? My. Aunt. Fanny.
The hospital in question above is run entirely by Indians. Naturally, it is in Texas, where phony baloney governor Heeeeyyyyy Aaaabbott is an entirely bought and paid servant of India and Pakistan. Well, wheelchairs are expensive, I guess, and he needs cash. He's destroyed multiple Texas towns which are now outposts of India.
Abbott constantly gives lip service to being such a great MAGA governor, while behind your back he does nothing but sell out his state.
The H-1B crackdown is way, way overdue. But it's only a small part of the story. There are all kinds of other visas that need to go (like H-1Bs bringing in their wives, parents, etc., and H-1Bs drop anchor babies almost immediately upon arrival). Millions of Indians have been made citizens since this nonsense started in the 1990s, and nothing is going to be done about them. We're stuck with them. At best we can stop the flow of new arrivals, but to date next to nothing has actually been done. Let's hope they mean it this time.
Don't even get me started on how the government literally paid for Indians to take over the small hotel industry in America. We have had an utterly traitorous government for decades, other than Trump. And the American corporate executive class are equally traitorous.
Holy Crap! Ā I was not surprised by your comment that "The hospital in question above is run entirely by Indians."... but had to see for myself... and I DID (... Almost - Unbelieveable!):
"The purchase of Mission Regional Medical Center byĀ Prime Healthcare FoundationĀ would ensure the medical center continues its not-for-profit mission of providing quality care and superior service to the people of Hidalgo County, Starr County, and the surrounding communities."
The Foundation consists of overĀ $1.8 billionĀ in assets all donated by Dr. Prem Reddy and his family."
(Now I kinda wonder how many of Prime & Mission Regional Medical'sĀ Doctors or nurses are here on H-1B visas Ā and how much correspondence it has to a prior post I made about IT work???):
Please encourage anyone interested in the H-1B visa issue(Industry) or connected to the Administration to consider promptly using EEOC to address "low hanging fruit": Ā
Countless small H-1B "job shops"/staffing companies (usually run by recent immigrants or originally H-1B visa holders themselves) exist through out the nation.

When I was a kid, I disliked seeing my classmates, who werenāt popular, embarrassed by the few number of cards. I gave to everyone in class but there was no requirement to do so.
After years of looking at IRS non-profitsā 990ās, it is not unusual to see the head of these organizations receiving what many would consider an overly generous salary. It is a major feature of these groups and not an anomaly. Itās a giant money laundering scheme set up for the benefit of a few and sadly rarely for the benefit of their supposed mission. I stopped donating to most a long time ago. America, youāve been scammed.
A top tech bro lamented how poor schools were in CA producing kids that could use their products (think Instagram) but didn't have the educational background to actually make them. But then he cheerfully said they could just import their needs. This is why I am against the visas and glad the fees are so high.
But there are still American kids who CAN do the job and ARE well educated who were passed over for a foreigner. My son was careful and persistent, and in his new employee orientation class of 50 at Intel he was the only white guy. All the others were people from China, India, the Philippines, and a few American women. His coworker, hired at the same time on an H1-B visa, was hired at a higher salary and promoted earlier, in spite of the fact that my son had to coach him through preparing for meeting presentations.
His friends from high school had similar experiences. So itās not primarily a problem with the US education system.
I agree. I commented earlier about my nephew, bright child who did well in California schools, San Jose, Davis, and San Francisco, and was unable to find a job in the same place, San Jose, where he was born.
Same as saying "Americans won't do those jobs". Americans did do those jobs, except they made good wages. Remember the Meatpackers Union, who was destroyed in the 80s, and now slaughter houses are only staffed with illegals?
Same with farmworkers, and now they're starting on truck drivers.
Are they seriously going to tell us that Americans won't drive trucks??!!! I've got a list of country songs to say different.
I am torn. I will use the following anecdotes to explain why.
I took microcomputer design, bought books on programming and hardware design, bought parts in the 1970s but never caught on. It is however easier today to learn using the internet. I think many need a mentor to get started or they have to devote to a full time computer programming course.
I taught my son how to program a space game written in basic that I had first seen on a PDP 11 in the mid 70's. He preferred to keep playing his gameboy rather than learn a skill.
Our education systems needs improvement to encourage and support the learning of skills in both technical fields and in life skills(ie, if you want a good job when you graduate then you better have learned something useful).
I work with lots of immigrants who have come to Canada legally and they work their tushes off 16 hrs a day and do great work. They are part of the movers and shakers in our economy.
I hear from employers about employment lawsuits that they have to defend when letting an employee go. It is easier to hire a foreign worker who is unlikely to launch a lawsuit.
Work ethic is poor amongst young residents. As one contractor put it "I am lucky if one out of 5 summer students is worth a damn".
Section 224 is on one page and is one sentence. Hopefully thatās not too much effort so that you actually know what youāve formed an opinion about.
I wish we could talk about it without the bashing. The members of my family who are practicing Jews agree - this doesnāt seem right, but we canāt even talk about it civilly.
Israeli foreign minister thinks so: "for every tear shed by an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must cry. All of Lebanon must burn." They think they are God's chosen people and others are cattle.
"Florida outright banned illegals from attending Floridaās public colleges at all, regardless of tuition level, sparking outrage." - Why should we let them go to college? They're criminals by definition, and once they graduate, they can't get jobs anyway.
Common sense is making a comeback. The federal court strike against the Texas Dream Act is a good sign. Maybe MALDEF and the NAACP will appeal and open the door for the Supremes to revisit Plyler v. Doe. If in-state college tuition for foreigners is a taxpayer rip off, so is free K-12 education for illegal aliens.
Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.

When I read about some idiot getting paid over $700,000 a year to head up a worthless organization it reinforces why the US is $40 trillion in debt. What really pisses me off is even with the Repubpukes āin chargeā spending continues to go up. It will be interesting to see what happens when nobody will buy our debt.
"Interesting". As in: May you live in interesting times.
Mrs. RW
PS: We might be seeing what happens as the US flails around deeper and deeper into debt. Just the interest on the debt now is a trillion dollars a year.
The attacks on other countries might just be part of their plan. Start a world war, maybe the debt can be cancelled in the rubble.
I see hospitals get very creative when it comes to business. They donāt seem to miss an opportunity to make a buck. During Covid they engaged in all sorts of shenanigans to maximize profits at the expense of their patients.
H1Bs need to be banned entirely. Any company that fires Americans should not be allowed to hire foreigners. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is a traitor and he appointed a fellow Indian with no gaming experience to run XBOX, then she laid off 3,000 people and was appointed to a Fed board. Unacceptable. This is happening at a mass scale all over corporate America.
Re: H1B and cue again to me screaming into the void ad nauseam about my 29 year-old biomedical engineer daughter with THREE patents under her belt for kidney dialysis products, being replaced by said H1Bs... and having to grind her ever loving brain into contract gig work, begging for start up money and having to pet sit to make ends meet with no benefits and minimal pay. And cue to my other newly married daughter who is trying to save up a "baby delivery fund" so she and her husband (a LEGAL) immigrant can actually have one "smol" little legal child.... today's post hit hard and gave me some hope...
Iām sorry. Most of us arenāt affected that strongly. Thank you for sharing. It brings it down to human costs.
My brother-in-law worked for IBM for decades, and watched as it was hollowed out of Americans and replaced with H1Bs. Then his son, computer whiz, brought up in Silicon Valley, with advanced computer degrees, was unable to get a job in San Jose, and had to go to Washington to work for a foreign owned company.
What a scam.
Mrs. RW
Until Trump, it was "Americans last" for policy.
These are agregious. But it isnāt just that. Its also companies choosing to āhireā temp employees from foreign countries for just a year and refusing to hire longer because they would pay more. So they go back out and hire a new temp. All to avoid hiring a real worker at American wages. Persistently hiring from Mexico and India on temp work. *Its manipulating the system* My husbands company does this. Sure wish more companies would become fully ethical instead of always thinking how they can save a damn dollar.
The VISA program began under President Reagan over four decades ago. This was the beginning of the mass invasion of the US. The VISA program needs to be shut down entirely. Under Trump, the mass invasion continues with the VISA program. And still no mass deportations and still no wall.

Retired British Army Colonel warns that civil war between Britons and immigrants is now inevitable
There is very likely to be civil war in Britain, Col. (Ret.) Richard Kemp said earlier this year.
āIām not talking about the American Civil War,ā he said. āIām talking about something more like Northern Ireland but on a much more intensive scale, where you have the indigenous British and some of the immigrant population and the British government all on three different sides fighting against each other. And Iād be very surprised if that doesnāt happen.ā
https://expose-news.com/2026/06/12/civil-war-between-britons-and-immigrants-is-inevitable/
I think you might see this catching on in other countries where the immigrants have more rights than the citizens, like France, Germany, Canada and any other country where immigrants are taking over
I believe we will see it soon. Just waiting for that initial powder keg to explode.
Based on so far, the government and police will be on the immigrant side. If only we were allowed to bear armsā¦ (from UK)
... "allowed" is one thing, possession is another.(from USA)
ammo is key.
If only the people had not caved to the government.
We have never been allowed to bear (fire)arms, thatās why we have so many stabbings and knife attacks. We were never asked to vote on it.
Bankers fund both sides.
Never a US civil war
Sounds anti semantic.
This is getting old. Please rotate your stock.
LOL
Microsoft CEO is tip of the iceberg and hides what's so rampant below... from another comment I made already:
Please encourage anyone interested in the H-1B visa issue(Industry) or connected to the Administration to consider promptly using EEOC to address "low hanging fruit":
Countless small H-1B "job shops"/staffing companies (usually run by recent immigrants or originally H-1B visa holders themselves) exist through out the nation. These companies surface business is allegedly "IT/Computer Programmer Analysts"; but what they really are is job shops hiring almost exclusively people on H1B visa and almost exclusively all from the same country of origin the owner is from (NOT the U.S.)... It is mind numbing how EEOC has not looked at any of these companies employment rosters and said: "Why do all the names on this list sound like everyone comes from India? and then looked into it and found... They do all come from India. 90%+ on H1B visas or OPT; rarely some on green cards... Point being, it should be simple for them (EEOC) to prove employment discrimination OR at least bring the case and put a quick end to those engaged in such fraud.
a similar "business" exists to import, hire, license CDL drivers. One even advertises that the trainers speak several languages. Like Urdu. Good to know semi drivers can read road signs in Urdu.
Everytime I see H1B I think of pencil led.
I think that's the plan at least for Trump. Some of India's universities have been selling fake degrees. MSM will start reporting it ........eventually.
100% agree. The oligarchs and fraud businesses that push for H1B's will try to couch in either/and 1. National security!!!!! and/or 2. Can't find anybody!!!!!!
First, if it is truly national security, then why would someone OUTSIDE the U.S. have info/experience that we can't find INSIDE the U.S. (with over 300 million people here). This isn't like the 1940's where Nazi's were mysteriously disappearing in Germany, only to conveniently re-appear, often under different names, in the U.S. and Soviet Union because the Germans had a more advanced rocket program (or, unfortunately, a much more advanced psyop-making structure).
Second, if they can't find anybody, they are not really trying. In this era of ubiquitous communication, internet, AI, and coming quantum computing, there is always someone who can fill a position from inside the USA. It is just a matter of cost. Instead we get half-baked search efforts because the consulting firms (at least with IT) make a bleep-load of money providing people. To get any H1B approved for potential filling, a position should have to be listed for 12+ months in a national database with clear and reasonable criteria. Meaning no stupid idiosyncratic requirement put in to make the position unfillable. Let's get real. Most of these IT positions are to replace American workers with less skilled Indians and eastern Europeans. I see it all the time since I work in the industry. We graduate millions of STEM workers who are Americans each year. H1B's are just a carving out of the Middle Class.
And to go along with that, we need to tarriff 200-300% all overseas foreign IT worker positions. I can't emphasize this enough (or even if H1B is shut off, they just move even more jobs overseas.) That will have two benefits. First, it will cut down on cutting people here, and honestly, the quality of work will go up within a year across the board. I was around before the mass offshoring occurred, and have lived through the drop in quality and longer turn around times because of that. It wasn't like this back 25 years ago. Bugs getting into production were much lower. People took pride in their work. And the amount of bloated code was a lot less becuase people applied their brains to solutioning properly.
Finally, why are the Medical schools allowed to operate with impunity on limiting how many seats there are? We see the repercussions with all the foreigners now in the medical field at all levels. Kids here who work their butts off and get decent grades in college are turned aside. "Not enough seats". The Medical Oligarchy is a real problem.
HR departments and schools are not calling over to India or the Middle East or Asia or Eastern Europe to verify Kumar or Mohammed or Muchen or Vlad actually have the credentials (and the schools they list are legit and of high quality). It's a fraud.
Agree with most of your stuff, but regarding the limitation of medical school seats one has to understand that physicians (and lawyers) create their own demand. If you add more physicians total costs actually increase. It's been studied and proven. It's a separate issue as to who should occupy those seats.
Disagree on lawyers. [Putting aside the fact that every profession has seen salary inflation for the past two decades] It has become much easier to go to school to be a lawyer. It is up to the person to pass the bar, but much easier now than in the 1980s to get a law degree. H1B for physicians run around 8,000-11,000 a year. 25% of the US physician workforce (per Grok). These aren't "jobs Americans won't do".
If the medical field (And particularly doctors and PA's) wants, it could have supply of seats meet demand for degrees within 1-2 years. They don't want a lot because they are protecting their profession for those who have made it. If we are admitting H1B people for doctor/PA and other highly skilled med positions, that means the current US system set up is deficient in meeting true demand. This didn't just occur. It has been going on for decades now. I've known many people with stellar grades and MCATs who can't enroll. That is a problem. Accrediting bodies like LCME and COCA play a role too. Then you throw in Federal Funding, residency programs (1997 Medicare residency cap), etc. Road block and hurdle after hurdle. But we are to then take in subpar foreign doctors, etc.
The demand for healthcare services is only increasing per the population aging. That is the demand. Americans have been shackled as to how many in this country can help meet that demand. There is no valid reason, especially in the age of AI, abundant office space (since so many moved to WFH), retired docs and other medical professionals willing to teach, that we shouldn't be able to supply all our own doctors. It's about money and control, plain and simple. Everyone fearful of their own bit of the pie, which results in bad outcomes for the US middle class, the economic ladder, and timely and accurate medical care.
This is all fixable. Instead we get the equivalent of "NASA" logic as to why things can't be done, so nothing changes until someone like an Elon comes along and does it better, faster, cheaper. No difference here.
Go into Alternative Medicine instead
Just as we have recently been reminded how compromised Mitch McConnell is & has been related to his wife's nationality, the same is true for JD Vance and any other elected politicians with similar family connections; including Rubio.
While McConnellās Chinese wife may be a different kettle of fish (a la Feinsteinās chauffeur, Fang Fang, etc.), I would be more concerned with judges from other countries who become US citizens, and then drop absurd progressive rulings.
Nothing like blasting your ignorance and prejudice.
What prejudice? If you are bold enough to slander, be bold enough to provide evidence?
Are you saying JD Vance is compromised because heās married to Usha?
He may be prejudiced but he is not ignorant.
Explain how JD Vance fits into your theory on nationality and family connections.
Usha Vance was born in the US, but her parents immigrated from India.
So what?
I guess we can conclude you say so what about McConnell's wife being Chinese too.
Technically she's from Taiwan.
Maybe also explain how your posting connects to H1b visas. Was either of the spouses here on visas? I'm thinking no. Another glass not only half empty but containing only snakes and scorpions comment.
Itās too bad we donāt have an America first president to put a stop to this!
It's so confusing when a supposed advocate for capitalism starts spewing government-controlled commie demands.
If you're talking about Trump, remember that he sides with the owners, not the workers, when it comes down to real life.
Hence, the "hospitality" need for illegal immigrants, and the high tech "need" for H1B immigrants. He has sympathy for the owners desire for cheap labor.

Amen. I say this every day....
This is the second time I have run into this same verse in scripture, TODAY. I think I will just be unafraid, and continue to trust Jesus.
Itās fresh on my mind because of a note I posted on my substack today.
Does merging your government's military with a foreign power (Israel) count as a blessing to "the lord"?
Do your handlers pay well? Asking for a friend.
Why are you asking this? It is an honest question about the proposal.
No, it isnāt. It is a Muslim/candace owens question.
It is acquiescing as far as I can seeā¦ the elephant in the roomā¦
And entire leadership in the pockets of the Israeli war machineā¦
And their digital data centers.
And it is the demonicRAT party having already merged with islamists and communists.
So.
Your point?
From my perspective it is actually all of Christendom. Real Christendom anyway. Onward Christian soldiers. The enemy is real. And nefarious.
I agree..this should not only never happen, it should never be proposed or thought of.
TRM did merging your brain with the hive (i.e. the demonicRATS/islamist/communist party ) hurt?
What happened to the practice of midwives and mothers having their babies at home? Surely that would cost far less. Plus it might protect the newborns from the vaxx protocol.
The practice is slowly growing, but 1) not covered by health insurance and 2) limited number of midwives! All the young mothers I know who have had a home birth, have been extremely pleased and have or would do it again!
I would say itās stagnant. In the 80ās, many of my friends and I were having home birth. Yes not covered by insurance but today the cost is a little higher. Most of my grandchildren were also born at home. The death stats are false. You get better care and midwives are selective in who they take, considering the motherās general health and how she takes care of herself.
As a mature (40 yrs old) first time mom, no midwives would take me on in 1997.
So sad.
I had twins at that age, my youngest. I was pretty well convinced it was going to be a hospital birth.
We have to remember though, Elizabeth, that home births of past generations also had high mortality rates for mothers and babies. It is not all an idealized situation. I gave birth to a child who had the cord wrapped around his neck in the womb, and would have died in a natural birth. He lived due to a C-section in hospital.
Your claims remind me of the pro vaccination folks that say the decline in deaths from diseases was thanks to vaccines, whereas any review of the data shows that decline occurred prior to the introduction of vaccines and is largely attributable to better sanitation and nutrition. If you look into the studies of birth outcomes in āfirst worldā countries in recent decades comparing hospital and midwife assisted home births, the latter is safer. Now there are issues about the population that chooses a home birth (high risk pregnancies are usually diverted, etc.) but you simply canāt claim that a home birth is higher risk. The example of the umbilical cord wrapped around the neck was discussed with my first midwife. When the cord was loose enough, she would simply reach in and un loop it. In one instance, where it was very tight, she transferred by ambulance and applied pressure to keep the baby from crowning. She had previously been a nurse in a hospital and felt that baby would likely have died without the close surveillance she provided at home. Who knows. I just wouldnāt assume a hospital environment is safer for all women.
I am very careful what I believe about vaccines. I did not get the COVID vaccine because I smelled a rat. Having a hospital birth is not exactly the same thing.
Elizabeth above, who I was replying to on the birth matter, seems as if she was promoting home birth for the sake of being fashionable. Which I object to. Because many women in the 80s and onward did choose it to be seen as progressive and fashionable.
Those of us who experienced the dehumanization and forced separation of hospital births before the "fad" of home births started, chose home birth to avoid those atrocities, not to be fashionable.
You can thank the fact that hospitals started kinder and gentler birthing practices, (even if they do charge for holding the baby, via "skin-to-skin" charges), to the women who simply refused to subject themselves to the arbitrary and authoritarian rules of the maternity hospitals at that time.
It was a opting out of tyranny, just like refusing the GMO injectables, and it made a difference.
Mrs. RW
Mrs. RW, I hear you. But it is not all that clear-cut. I have expertise in the work of John Bowlby on the Attachment System, so I would be the first to tell you that Attachment matters. And not only at birth. The entire first three years are crucial.
However, living amongst normal human beings, I also saw that many women I knew of child-bearing age were indeed making their birthing decisions based on fads and fashions -- the same way many of them lived their lives in general. Social contagion can be powerful. Behaviour is not always motivated by noble virtue, alas.
My second home birth had the cord around his neck four times and the midwife removed it one ring at a time. He did not die.
Glad to hear it, Melissa. I was told my son would not have been that fortunate.
I have given birth to five children, actually, including twins. I put a lot of thought into the pregnancies and the births, so that my children were given the best and safest opportunities I could offer.
But life can be a joker.....in later years their father unleashed Parental Alienation on all of us (not that it is a feminist issue, because it isn't).
So the challenges might keep coming.
Neither home births nor hospital births should be shamed. Everyone has to make their own choice. More power to the woman who researches well and makes the decision based on her and her childās needs.
I am a retired Ob-Gyn. Midwife deliveries can often be a great experience, but not always. And there are differences between midwife deliveries at home, and those in a hospital. Home deliveries can be appropriate for women who have already had an uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery in the past. And, even then, an obstetrical emergency can occur in the blink of an eye without warning. Hospital deliveries are much safer, and are especially important for women having their first baby. One of the later comments talks about an OB sitting in the back of the room during a midwife delivery. That was a very gracious thing to do.
@Dr. Sherrylyn- sitting in the back of the room is nice and all but what happens when there's an emergency? There would be no medical equipment to take over.
@A- having the cord wrapped around his neck is not usually a problem since he wasn't using his lungs. When delivered, they simply remove the cord from the neck.
It was my Obstetrician who told me this, Kittynana. I assumed that he knew about such things. If it was such an easy fix at delivery, why didn't he just do that? I was not going to find out the hard way by having my son die at birth before I believed him.
Btw, this happened at a Canadian hospital, where there was no profit incentive for them to do a C-section instead. In fact, just the opposite. They always try to avoid unneccessry medical procedures if they can.
Home births were the big fashion back in the 80s in my area. Until a home-birth advocate was charged with the death of a newborn due to negligence.
Not that hospitals are all perfect either. There is an NHS hospital in England that is like a horror-zone for mothers giving birth, and for the newborns.
Charging someone for a newborn death at home is called lawfare.
The US has the highest infant mortality rate among industrialized countries, but you certainly never hear of OBs being charged for a neonatal death.
Mrs. RW
You know, I agree with that, Mrs. RW. I have always noted that doctors are rarely charged with negligence when they mis-diagnose or miss the diagnosis, in cases where they should have known. But when parents miss a medical issue in their children, even when they are acting in good faith (and have no medical training), they tend to be charged,
All those medical mistakes or misses out there by doctors are often just shrugged off.
My cousin and his wife have 4 children, 3 of which were born at home because the woman labors so quickly there is no time to get to the hospital. She literally can pop a baby out. The 3 younger children were all born in the shower. There were no complications and all the babies were/are very healthy.
Big pHARMa took over "health care" then made it "too risky"
Midwife assisted birth is still 3k and up. We've had 6 babies with midwives, and our total bill for all 6 is the same as my Sister in law's birth bill from a local hospital for her 1 baby - $20,000.
There's no money in it for the hospitals. Midwives are important for mother's in most countries, sadly not here.
It was a popular way of birthing during Covid, to avoid the medical complex taking over. I think itās actually becoming quite popular among the health-conscious set.
Definitely growingā¦
four healthy grands born that way. and they can write cursive. but I digress.
I had my 2nd and 3rd child at home (province of Quebec at the time). Wonderful experiences, but challenging to find a supportive doctor to work with the midwife (ordering bloodwork, assisting if hospital transfer needed, etc. At the time, midwives were not recognized by the medical profession. Shortly afterwards, the provinces took steps to āacceptā midwifery, establishing university programs and programs to āgrandfatherā (or grandmother) experienced midwives into the certification. While there were definite advantages, such as having costs covered by our provincial health plans, the independence of midwives was lost. They are now trained in the standard medical practice and are required to encourage all the standard protocols like vaccines. They do less homebirths and are more often the primary caregiver in a hospital setting.
Of my three children, I only had one at home, and that is the only birth that I remember with fondness.
The two hospital births were horrendous, each in its own way. Sure, women have been convinced that hospital births are safer, infant and maternal mortality rates in the US notwithstanding, but I think it's very sad.
Mrs. RW
My daughter will be having her first in about 2 months. Going to a birth center for ~4K. She will submit the super bills to insurance afterwards. Since sheās vx injured - she wanted ultimate control over the birth to protect that baby. Also paying a doula in case she needs a hospital transfer. Then God willing - home birth next. Lots of her friends are doing this now - as people have opened their eyes since the Cvd debacle and donāt trust traditional medical doctors.
I was stunned by the supposed cost of having a baby. Iām going to survey my many young church friends who have lots of children. I donāt think it costs that much in small town Oklahoma, but I am curious.
@Margot- the US is a litigious society. Malpractice insurance is insanely costly.
Dave, check into Dr. Margaret Aranda's stack (the Rebel Patient, I think) for info on this. The births of my own 3 (1978-87) were assisted by certified nurse midwives, at Booth Maternity Hospital in Phila--a Salvation Army hospital where the CNMs were staff--an ob was required to be present in the birthing room, but he just sat in a chair at the back of the room.
It goes in and out of fashion. Thirty years ago it was promoted by the lefties attempting to show how "progressive" they were. Not to protect newborns, really.
Good morning All!!
I will bless the LORD at all times, his praise shall be always in my mouth.
My soul will glory in the LORD; let the poor hear and be glad.
Magnify the LORD with me; and let us exalt his name together.
I sought the LORD, and he answered me, delivered me from all my fears.
Look to him and be radiant, and your faces may not blush for shame.
This poor one cried out and the LORD heard, and from all his distress he saved him.
The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he saves them.
Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the stalwart one who takes refuge in him.
Psalm 34
Amen, Karmy!!!
Does merging your government's military with a foreign power (Israel) count as a blessing to "the lord"?
What a stupid comment. Bahrain has now joined with the US military in Iran. You should add them then, to your disfavor.
That is not a statement of complete truth. One is cooperation in their country for a limited period of time. The other is complete integration of military and intelligence..stop comparing oranges to apples.
Section 224. Itās not a ācomplete integration of military, etcā. FFS. Read it: https://armedservices.house.gov/uploadedfiles/fy27_ndaa_chairmans_mark_-_final.pdf
I guess you never heard of Five Eyes, then, where intelligence is shared between the US, Canada, UK, Australia, etc. In any event perhaps actually READ the proposed directive. Complete āintegrationā? How about sharing weapons research, production and technology, which is what it actually states. Perhaps you are unaware that the US sells military weapons to Israel, who then IMPROVE them and give those improvements back to the US.
Two separate entities
Well, yeah, what's your point?
Read the directive. Section 224. https://armedservices.house.gov/uploadedfiles/fy27_ndaa_chairmans_mark_-_final.pdf
For all the people who are triggered due to āIsraelā, read section 224 here: https://armedservices.house.gov/uploadedfiles/fy27_ndaa_chairmans_mark_-_final.pdf Itās about sharing TECHNOLOGY, RESEARCH, etc., and whether you accept it or not, Israel is equal to (if not superior to) the US in technology. It is NOT ācombining militaryā so that we ācontinue to fight Israelās warsā. It might be an idea to actually read the sentence before posting your opinion on the directive.
You already posted that comment we donāt need to see it twice to get your gripe!
"MAGNIFY the LORD With Me"?
Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs directly bankrolled the multi-million dollar geofencing campaign targeting American Christian churches. Driven by public records, the operation marks a major, state-funded effort to shore up declining geopolitical support among U.S. Evangelicals.
Wow, do you mean Israel is doing legitimate advertising, unlike the regime change and all other sorts of corruption we do (or did before Trump) to hundreds of countries via USAID and other agencies???
Stop comparing oranges to apples. Countries are not religions.
Did the post you are replying to have anything at all to do with the issue you referenced here?
No.
So you are hijacking it.
Bad form.
If you have a point to make, don't do it disingenously.
If the birthright citizenship appeal doesn't work, I can't wait to see what card Trump plays next--because you know he's got something in mind. On thinking about it, his last name describes exactly what he does: trumps his opposition. š
Those Mexican billboards adds to Democratsā portfolio of polycrisis events. It makes the terrible Supreme Court decision look even more terrible and dumb. Trump will somehow leverage this into a win for America.
The irony of ironies where US citizens actually leave the country to give birth because it is too expensive to do it here.
Or get cancer tx they cant get or afford here. But. They don't stay there, right?
Yes, timing couldn't be better, only a week after, we get an "in your face" example of the peversity of the ruling!
Godās Will be done!
š¤
Keeps the issue front of mind come midterms. Who do you trust for your employment security, personal security?
Unless that opposition is Iran.
It is not a thing congress can rectify without constitutional amendment, is it?
Michael, Yes Congress can make a law. Justice Kavanaughās statement laid out the roadmap. No constitutional amendment needed.
Let's hope and pray. The ruling highlights a major problem with lawmaking. The letter of 14A practically mandates birthright citizenship, but the spirit of the amendment canāt possibly agree with that. If we assume the SCOTUS majority meant the nation no harm (an impossibly heavy assumption), we might agree with Emerson that "a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines."
Another great American killed by an illegal alien driving a tractor trailer that canāt read signs and doesnāt speak English. But the illegal worked for cheap!
Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Michael E. Pahira Jr., 44, was struck and killed on July 1, 2026. He was conducting a routine inspection of a commercial truck on the shoulder of Interstate 81 in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, when another tractor-trailer drifted off the roadway and hit him.
The incredible thing is with the thousands and thousands killed by illegal aliens in all different ways, mostly violent, when you mention it to a communist democrat they say nothing as though they donāt care. All the democrats stayed seated at the state of the union address when Trump asked if Americans were more important than illegals, what more do you have to see?
Many in powerful government positions are simply addicted to cheap labor and cheap votes. Birthright citizenship is just another tool to keep Americans wages down. This country is addicted to cheap labor. I canāt tell you how many construction jobs Iāve lost to cheap uninsured under the table illegal labor.
My new neighbor has had work going on at her house for months. No one there but the business owner speaks English. My neighbor doesnāt care sheās saved thousands Iām sure. Iām glad the house is finally getting fixed up but every day I think of American blue collar workers that lost another job, its disgusting!
Living in a rural area, I found it convenient to order some things from Walmart online instead of driving into town. To my surprise, instead of shipping those items like amazon does, they started delivering orders by local drivers. Seemed fine until my orders were dropped off at a neighbors instead of my home so I had to do find them. After this happened multiple times, I called customer service. I had added detailed directions to my account that explains in simple terms how to locate my drive way. The customer service rep said, "Not to sound racist, but most of the drivers don't speak English." I won't order from them again, but I was impressed they admitted the reason for the botched deliveries! Not very reassuring to know that when I head out on the road, not everyone with a license can even read the street signs and warnings in English!
This fries me. I paid my car tabs before renewal. Got a letter today saying DMV wouldn't process my renewal (although they did cash the $76 check) because the car has to be insured. State wanted the company, expiration date and policy number. What the hell for? I told them I'm (still) insured, the ID cards are in the glove box, my wallet and the filing cabinet for ME when and if I'm in a wreck. You don't need ID to vote, you can deliver a foreign baby and win the US citizen lotto, but the State needs my insurance policy number? My. Aunt. Fanny.
The hospital in question above is run entirely by Indians. Naturally, it is in Texas, where phony baloney governor Heeeeyyyyy Aaaabbott is an entirely bought and paid servant of India and Pakistan. Well, wheelchairs are expensive, I guess, and he needs cash. He's destroyed multiple Texas towns which are now outposts of India.
Abbott constantly gives lip service to being such a great MAGA governor, while behind your back he does nothing but sell out his state.
The H-1B crackdown is way, way overdue. But it's only a small part of the story. There are all kinds of other visas that need to go (like H-1Bs bringing in their wives, parents, etc., and H-1Bs drop anchor babies almost immediately upon arrival). Millions of Indians have been made citizens since this nonsense started in the 1990s, and nothing is going to be done about them. We're stuck with them. At best we can stop the flow of new arrivals, but to date next to nothing has actually been done. Let's hope they mean it this time.
Don't even get me started on how the government literally paid for Indians to take over the small hotel industry in America. We have had an utterly traitorous government for decades, other than Trump. And the American corporate executive class are equally traitorous.
Holy Crap! Ā I was not surprised by your comment that "The hospital in question above is run entirely by Indians."... but had to see for myself... and I DID (... Almost - Unbelieveable!):

Abbott is a fraud which explains why Trump endorsed him!
From the beginning! As Gov of Texas he could have shut down the majority of the US border yet did NOTHING. He is theater!
I agree. From what I read he didnāt get tuff on the border until the year of the election.
I'd like to see a review of every person living in the U.S. whose parents weren't born here.
āItās like second-grade Valentineās cards: All or none.ā - a LOL moment for me - thank you ;)
Yep, I had a flashback!
I like that rule.
When I was a kid, I disliked seeing my classmates, who werenāt popular, embarrassed by the few number of cards. I gave to everyone in class but there was no requirement to do so.
šyes!!
After years of looking at IRS non-profitsā 990ās, it is not unusual to see the head of these organizations receiving what many would consider an overly generous salary. It is a major feature of these groups and not an anomaly. Itās a giant money laundering scheme set up for the benefit of a few and sadly rarely for the benefit of their supposed mission. I stopped donating to most a long time ago. America, youāve been scammed.
Yes. Non-profit does not mean NO profit. It just means they can hide that profit in salaries and assets!
And no taxes.
A top tech bro lamented how poor schools were in CA producing kids that could use their products (think Instagram) but didn't have the educational background to actually make them. But then he cheerfully said they could just import their needs. This is why I am against the visas and glad the fees are so high.
But there are still American kids who CAN do the job and ARE well educated who were passed over for a foreigner. My son was careful and persistent, and in his new employee orientation class of 50 at Intel he was the only white guy. All the others were people from China, India, the Philippines, and a few American women. His coworker, hired at the same time on an H1-B visa, was hired at a higher salary and promoted earlier, in spite of the fact that my son had to coach him through preparing for meeting presentations.
His friends from high school had similar experiences. So itās not primarily a problem with the US education system.
I agree. I commented earlier about my nephew, bright child who did well in California schools, San Jose, Davis, and San Francisco, and was unable to find a job in the same place, San Jose, where he was born.

Our kids are too dumb to hold these jobs (and we're too dumb to want to change our education system, we'll just replace them) I see a pattern ...
Which is exactly what the Transnational gangsters/WEF want in their bid to destroy this country.
Same as saying "Americans won't do those jobs". Americans did do those jobs, except they made good wages. Remember the Meatpackers Union, who was destroyed in the 80s, and now slaughter houses are only staffed with illegals?
Same with farmworkers, and now they're starting on truck drivers.
Are they seriously going to tell us that Americans won't drive trucks??!!! I've got a list of country songs to say different.
Mrs. RW
I agree 100% Wise Old Woman :-)
I am torn. I will use the following anecdotes to explain why.
I took microcomputer design, bought books on programming and hardware design, bought parts in the 1970s but never caught on. It is however easier today to learn using the internet. I think many need a mentor to get started or they have to devote to a full time computer programming course.
I taught my son how to program a space game written in basic that I had first seen on a PDP 11 in the mid 70's. He preferred to keep playing his gameboy rather than learn a skill.
Our education systems needs improvement to encourage and support the learning of skills in both technical fields and in life skills(ie, if you want a good job when you graduate then you better have learned something useful).
I work with lots of immigrants who have come to Canada legally and they work their tushes off 16 hrs a day and do great work. They are part of the movers and shakers in our economy.
I hear from employers about employment lawsuits that they have to defend when letting an employee go. It is easier to hire a foreign worker who is unlikely to launch a lawsuit.
Work ethic is poor amongst young residents. As one contractor put it "I am lucky if one out of 5 summer students is worth a damn".
Why is Israel being dragged into the comments again. Iām so sick and tired of the Israel bashing. Puhleeze, give it a rest for once
Is it bashing or is there a real problem?
Itās bashing, frankly.
No it is not. Speaking the truth is not bashing.
Yeah, it is, as I guarantee that M Adams, and probably even yourself, have not taken one minute to read the one sentence in section 224. Here: https://armedservices.house.gov/uploadedfiles/fy27_ndaa_chairmans_mark_-_final.pdf
Is too. Is not. Uh huh. Nuh uh.
505 pages? šššššš
Section 224 is on one page and is one sentence. Hopefully thatās not too much effort so that you actually know what youāve formed an opinion about.
It is a real problem. But many have digested propaganda for so long they cannot see the problems.
I wish we could talk about it without the bashing. The members of my family who are practicing Jews agree - this doesnāt seem right, but we canāt even talk about it civilly.
When you speak the truth about Israel you call it bashing but when truth is spoken about the middle east you don't. Strange.
Maybe because they need to be exposed for exactly who and what they actually are
Why? What are they? Godās chosen people?
Israeli foreign minister thinks so: "for every tear shed by an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must cry. All of Lebanon must burn." They think they are God's chosen people and others are cattle.
Itās written right in the Bible
"Florida outright banned illegals from attending Floridaās public colleges at all, regardless of tuition level, sparking outrage." - Why should we let them go to college? They're criminals by definition, and once they graduate, they can't get jobs anyway.
Common sense is making a comeback. The federal court strike against the Texas Dream Act is a good sign. Maybe MALDEF and the NAACP will appeal and open the door for the Supremes to revisit Plyler v. Doe. If in-state college tuition for foreigners is a taxpayer rip off, so is free K-12 education for illegal aliens.
Hey Guardian, I wanted to go to Oxford, but you wouldn't let me.... discrimination.

When I read about some idiot getting paid over $700,000 a year to head up a worthless organization it reinforces why the US is $40 trillion in debt. What really pisses me off is even with the Repubpukes āin chargeā spending continues to go up. It will be interesting to see what happens when nobody will buy our debt.
"Interesting". As in: May you live in interesting times.
Mrs. RW
PS: We might be seeing what happens as the US flails around deeper and deeper into debt. Just the interest on the debt now is a trillion dollars a year.
The attacks on other countries might just be part of their plan. Start a world war, maybe the debt can be cancelled in the rubble.
I see hospitals get very creative when it comes to business. They donāt seem to miss an opportunity to make a buck. During Covid they engaged in all sorts of shenanigans to maximize profits at the expense of their patients.
Says an awful lot about a hospitalās priorities now doesnāt it?
And killed people with their respirators and especially, remdesivir kickbacks.
Good morning y'all. TGIF!
