Just a thought, but who said the replacements had to be trained right by those they are replacing?

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

Every American should be furious by this

American bank worker was told he had to train his foreign worker replacement. He did, and then shot himself in the parking garage

JD Vance “A computer programmer — was let go at the bank that he worked at, and the bank, they told him, "You're only gonna get your severance package if you trained a foreign replacement to do your job instead”

“And it's a heartbreaking story because he did it. He dutifully did what he was asked to do, and on his last day, he packed up his things, he walked to the office parking lot, he got in his truck, and he shot himself.”

JD Vance didn’t name the bank but I will

It was Bank of America in California

Kevin Flanagan was a software programmer and developer. After being laid off, he shot himself in the parking garage

Multiple reports confirm Bank of America was outsourcing work to India firms and even imported H-1B workers

@ewarren Wonder what things would cost if Iran got a nuke?

@FinanceTX @WallStreetMav Agreed

I work the front desk at a small doctor’s office, and I wish people could see what happens on the other side of the phone. Every day, older patients call us confused.

They are told to use the patient portal, upload documents, check lab results online, fill out forms before the visit, and confirm everything through a link. Some of them do not know what a portal is.

Some do not have a smartphone.
Some have one, but they are afraid to click the wrong thing.
Last week, a man in his late 80s called about his test results.

He said, “Ma’am, I don’t mean to bother you, but the computer says I have a message and I don’t know how to open it.”
He sounded ashamed.
That broke my heart.

He should not have to feel ashamed for needing a human being.
Technology can be helpful. I understand that.

But when people who built this country are made to feel helpless because everything became a login and a password, we have gone too far.
Not everything needs to be an app.
Not every answer should be hidden behind a screen.

Sometimes people need a voice.
A patient person.
A real human who says, “Don’t worry, I can help you.”
Progress should not leave seniors behind.

Because one day, the world will move faster than us too.
And I hope someone is kind enough to slow down.

It took them 60 years to figure out that if you give a bunch of free stuff to poor people, you create more dependent poor people.

[David Dunahoe @DDunahoe]

@SteveHiltonx @SandyCukes At least on class 8 trucks, where California has mandated them for years, and many fleets run them nationwide, because a truck MAY go to California, they do not last as long as regular tires. Any fuel savings is negated this and their higher cost.

Airport in Spain: "you can't bring this 150ml shampoo with you, I'll have to confiscate it"

Border at Ceuta: "what is a passport?"

[Monica Crowley @MonicaCrowley]

This is a masterpiece

[Jonathan Turley @JonathanTurley]

Eric Swalwell reportedly was stopped at the airport, and his electronic devices were seized. The FBI seized additional evidence from his Washington home pursuant to a warrant. It is the most chilling tale for the many in D.C.: the fall of a made man. https://t.co/GobE0GXPNn

@LoriMills4CA42 @SandyCukes Gavin went whichever way the winds blew. Now that it’s all coming to pass, as these policies fail, he can’t get himself dissociated from them.

[Voices From Vietnam @VoicesfromNam]

Joe Jackson was a Georgia man who had already fought two wars before Vietnam. He flew B-25 bombers in World War II and 107 combat missions in Korea. By 1968 he was a lieutenant colonel flying something far less glamorous than a fighter, a C-123 Provider, a big, slow, twin engine cargo hauler. And it was in that lumbering transport that, on May 12, 1968, he did one of the most astonishing things any pilot did in the entire war.

The Special Forces camp at Kham Duc was being overrun and evacuated. In the chaos, a three man Air Force combat control team was accidentally left behind on the airstrip, three men alone as the enemy poured onto the field. The North Vietnamese had already set up guns right on the runway and were raking it with mortars, machine guns, and recoilless rifles. The strip was flatly declared impossible to land on. Aircraft that tried to get in were being shot up. Those three men were, by any reasonable measure, lost.

Joe Jackson volunteered to go get them, in his cargo plane. He could not do a normal approach, so he did something insane and brilliant. He rolled his C-123 into a steep dive from altitude, plunging toward the runway at maximum speed to give the enemy the smallest possible window, then slammed the big transport down onto the cratered, burning strip and stood on the brakes. The three trapped men sprinted from cover and threw themselves aboard. As they did, a North Vietnamese recoilless rifle round skidded across the runway straight at his aircraft and stopped just in front of it without exploding. Jackson shoved the throttles forward, hauled the loaded plane back into the air through the gunfire, and flew all three men out alive.

An American aircraft circling overhead happened to photograph his C-123 sitting on that runway in the middle of it all. It is said to be possibly the only photograph in existence of a Medal of Honor action as it happened.

President Johnson gave Joe Jackson the Medal of Honor in 1969. A veteran of three wars who, in a slow cargo plane everyone said could not do it, dove into an overrun airfield to bring three strangers home. He lived a long life and died in 2019 at the age of 95.

Something big is about to happen with deportations in America. You should be ready for this…

I just spoke with a senior DHS official. They shared deportation numbers with me that frankly stunned me.

+27,000 deportations. Last week.

+3,600 a day average.

Tracking for 1.4 million deportations across the calendar year.

+69,000 illegals are in DHS jails waiting to be deported at this moment.

And you haven’t heard a blip about it in the corporate press. Why? My DHS source says “stealth tactics.”

“We’re everywhere in every major city. We tell no one. Plain clothes. Beat up old cars. Quick work. Tactical strikes. No one sees anything. No drama. No tears. No media circus. You’re just going back home where you belong.”

And here’s where it gets insane…

DHS tells me blue states are quietly and very secretly working with the Trump administration to assist in the mass deportation of criminals. The criminal alien issue has become so “politically toxic” and “costly” that Democrat Governors have given the green light to Sheriffs and Police Chiefs in major blue cities to drop their illegals off with undercover ICE for removal.

It’s happening. You just don’t see it.

We can track if these numbers hold, but as for now this is a historic white pill and exactly what MAGA voted for.

This is just mind boggling.

They’re breaking the market with subsidized groceries, and in order to keep the local grocery stores from collapsing they’re going to distribute ‘grants’ to keep them afloat.

This of course keeps the stores completely dependent on government handouts to remain open also. Handouts which can be revoked, of course, should they step out of line in some way.

It’s all just a big scheme for control over everything.

[Michelle Tandler @michelletandler]

Let me get this straight. The head of the NYC DSA:
+ Went to Yale for sculpture
+ Never held a real job
+ Had his dad pay his rent
+ Failed an electrician apprenticeship
+ Lives in a $1.5M Brooklyn house bought by his parents

You literally couldn’t write a better parody.

They never sell the queue.

The pitch is pure sunshine: Medicare for All, coverage for everybody, no more insurance companies, just walk in and get fixed. They wave the brochure with the smiling family and the big red “FREE” stamp. What they carefully leave out of every speech, every ad, every podium moment is the part that actually runs the system once the private money disappears.

They never sell the utilization controls. That’s the polite term for “we decide if your knee is worth the slot this year.” They never sell the provider cuts that turn top specialists into part-time hobbyists or early retirees. They never sell the deliberate scarcity that follows: fewer MRI machines running, fewer operating rooms open, fewer nurses on the floor because the global budget said so.

They never sell the 48-hour ER hallway wait, the six-month specialist delay, the quiet age cutoff that says grandma’s hip is “not a priority.” They never sell the rationing board that weighs your life expectancy against the spreadsheet. They never sell the black-market clinic across the border or the “friend of a friend” who can get you seen faster if the envelope is thick enough.

The slogan is the bait. The queue is the product. They’ll talk all day about solidarity and fairness. They just won’t show you the waiting-room chairs, the clipboard with your number, or the doctor quietly checking the reimbursement rate before deciding whether you’re still on the list.
