I participated in our county’s annual Veterans Day celebration today. It’s held on the historic square in downtown.

You know what I didn’t see among the veterans and local residents in attendance? Indians, Asians, and Middle Easterners. Not one person from these communities, which do exist around here, attended today.

When they read off the names of local men who died in war, beginning with WWI, you know what I didn’t hear? Indian, Asian, or Middle Eastern names.

The veterans and residents who attended the event were all white except for a small handful of black people.

There was one obvious Latino last name mentioned in the list of those killed in war. That’s it. Only one.

The names of those killed in action and the faces of veterans there today belonged to white men of European heritage and black men.

The U.S. has not always been a melting pot.

It was primarily forged through the blood and sweat of two distinct groups of people — whites of European heritage and a smaller percentage of black slaves and their descendants.

I’m sick and tired of foreigners, especially the ones in my community who couldn’t be bothered to come today, trying to latch onto our story. I’m sick of foreigners coming here demanding we conform to their ideas of the U.S. when they haven’t contributed anything meaningful to it.

Heritage Americans and ADOS/FBAs share a unique history, heritage, and culture formed over decades of cohabitation. It is our story. It doesn’t belong to them. And it will never belong to them.

@SouthernMB82 @Southern_Living stands to lose a LOT of supporters as a result of their actions.

I have been a long time subscriber, early 70’s, but no more.

If this is how Southern Living treats SOUTHERNERS I want no part of it.

Just cancelled my subscription.

Bless your hearts……..

@dinopontino The usual consensus is Americans with Founding Stock blood whose families have been here since before the Civil War.

So, yes, I can.

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

I just want to make sure I fully understand the situation.

A foreigner immigrates to the U.S.

This foreigner then receives taxpayer-backed SBA loans only offered to immigrants.

Soon after, this same foreigner is then allowed to use the H-1B visa program to hire people from his homeland.

Meanwhile, Heritage Americans who want to start businesses aren’t even offered such loans and must also compete against foreigners for jobs.

This foreigner could have stayed in his homeland, started his business there, and hired his countrymen without needing to apply for work visas.

Yet, this foreigner comes here to take advantage of Americans with the help of our own government because our country is an economic zone for the world.

Do I have that right?

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

@skumarsusa Americans dont.

[Avery @averytweeting]

@SouthernMB82 Check out this company. I used to work with the founder. I had the opportunity to get in as a founding partner. I considered it but declined when I discovered their business plan. A lot of Americans don’t know this is happening at the white collar level

@SouthernMB82 And SBA banks like this, based in Dallas, perpetuate the scheme https://t.co/R1diOBqiDi

7 Indian Jewelry Stores worth moving to Dallas, Texas for. Realtors are advertising this as one of the many reasons people moving to North TX. How are H1Bs buying $1 million homes & hoards of gold in 3-6 years? Americans with good jobs can't even do that @DrNTXNews @DeplorableATX

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

@FamousH1Bs H-1B didn’t even exist till the 1990s.

[Iteration #7 @RJO5142]

Almost. They get tax breaks and other stuff too, but only for a few years. So when that time is up, they "sell" to a family member, and the racket starts over.

A family of Pakis or Indians bought up a half dozen well functioning, profit making bar/restaurants in our area 5 years ago. All have been ran into the ground and are now closed.

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

@FamousH1Bs I don’t want any H-1Bs here.
I don’t care what they do.

[Grok @grok]

Policies like the ones described were enacted by Congress and prior administrations to encourage legal immigration, small business formation, and filling specialized job needs. Lawful permanent residents could qualify for SBA-backed loans under ownership rules, and US employers (including immigrant-founded firms) could sponsor H-1B visas for skilled foreign workers when domestic talent was unavailable.

These created real economic activity and innovation but fueled legitimate criticisms over taxpayer priorities, job competition for citizens, and chain effects favoring recent arrivals. In March 2026 the SBA tightened rules to limit loans strictly to US citizens and nationals. H-1B has faced ongoing scrutiny and reform calls for similar reasons.

Whether it was acceptable depends on whether policy should emphasize broad economic openness or explicit preference for Heritage Americans and citizen resources. The US is a sovereign nation that sets its own terms, not an open economic zone. Rules evolve with elections and evidence.

To put this post into context, Maneet Chauhan came to the U.S. from India in 2007. She opened a restaurant in New York, then here in Nashville. She would have been eligible for such loans at the time. Now, she is trying to hire a foreigner through H-1B.

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

It’s no surprise that the Indian who tried to cosplay as a Southerner with the help of @Southern_Living is trying to import foreigners to work at her restaurant in Nashville.

It never fails. Foreigners like her only see the U.S. as an economic zone ripe for the picking. She doesn’t care about Americans, nor does she want to assimilate. She is a nationalist for her people — Indians.

Maneet Chauhan doesn’t belong in the South or anywhere else in the U.S. She should return to her homeland.

She is not wanted here.

[BOHOPONY @bohopony]

@hacks_life_2498 @SouthernMB82 n early 2026, SBA and HUD implemented stricter rules limiting non-citizens and foreign nationals from SBA-backed loans and FHA-insured mortgages to prioritize American citizens
Via Grok

[BOHOPONY @bohopony]

@hacks_life_2498 @SouthernMB82 Under current SBA policy effective March 2026, loans require 100% ownership by U.S. citizens or nationals with principal U.S. residence, banning foreign nationals and excluding lawful permanent residents.
They were offered up till March 2026 via Grok.

[MamaBear @warroom4evr]

Our previous Montessori school was bought (and ruined ) in this exact same scenario. They had zero education experience & continued to do their tech jobs from their office at school . A private school for southern , American children taken away by foreigners who got “diversity loan”.

[Jim Bunte @jimbunte]

@SouthernMB82 unfortunately, yes.

but SBA has now been cut off from foreigners and visa holders, thank god.

many hotels and gas stations will be on the market soon as their 7-year interest-free terms run out.

light at the end of the dark tunnel.

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

@Tamils_World @nasescobar316 @Southern_Living I genuinely don’t know them.
I don’t listen to rap on a regular basis or follow the hip hop world.

As such, I don’t even know what point you’re trying to make. A little help would be nice.

Good Morning @eatatchauhan @ManeetChauhan

I am disappointed and will not eat at your establishment in Nashville.

You clearly do not need a foreign worker for this role. You can hire a US citizen for this.

STOP hiring foreign workers.

I will offer to help you find qualified US citizens if you cannot.

Thanks to @VBierschwale and his data at https://t.co/2GsiE4XZdm , we now know you are hiring people who are foreign workers when there are US citizens with the skills to do these jobs.

We will not forget this and will keep the pressure up to hire American citizens first.

[granitellama @granitellama]

@SouthernMB82 As a small business owner who was eligible for ZERO dollars in start up loans and had to personally bankroll it you are 100% correct.

[According Lee @AccordingLee]

@PollCollector @SouthernMB82 The banks underwrite & give the loans that are guaranteed by the USA federal government aka USA taxpayers are the co-signers, so there’s little to no risk for the banks.

The Indian🇮🇳owned State Bank of Texas whole business model was underwriting SBA 7a $5 million dollar loans💵

[Dawn Nelson @DawnENelson1]

@SouthernMB82 Yes and they also buy a home at 100 financing and no interest for 3 years. 6 people combined qualify and then they sell it to the another group of Indians that do the same and start the process over for 2 houses now, rinse, repeat.

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

@Tamils_World @nasescobar316 @Southern_Living I don’t even know who those men are in that picture. I’m so confused.

[Southern Mama @SouthernMB82]

@Tamils_World @nasescobar316 @Southern_Living I’m sorry, what?
I have no idea what you’re talking about. I have nothing to do with the hip hop industry.
