@ChrisDePierro@MSNOWNews I swear the weekend prime time is ridiculous. Using 3 people to do a one man tops is crazy. Whoever made that decision should be fired. Iman was fine before. Then you have Crooked media it’s insufferable.
@Mazzios this is strange. There is a bite taken out of a pizza I just ordered. If you notice the cheese is melted across the other slices even tho they’ve been cut. The bitten slice are not connected by melted cheese. What in the world?
@TheRichFromCali No. I do wonder why there hasn’t been a committee created for this. They are investing JFK shooting for the millionth time. But nobody wants to know the mistakes that happened that led to it, info about the shooting. Right & left should want to know. Why hasn’t MAGA demanded it?
Americans elected Republicans to deliver safety, and the Laken Riley Act will ensure that criminal illegal aliens are detained.
This is a welcome and crucial first step for delivering on our promise to make America safe again.
Vivek, your assertion that “native” Americans are overlooked for top tech positions due to cultural mediocrity is not only dismissive and oversimplified it’s an indirect acknowledgment of illegal practices under U.S. law. By framing this as a cultural issue, you inadvertently admit that companies are deliberately displacing American workers, which is explicitly prohibited under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Let’s address both the legality and the flaws in your argument:
1. Acknowledgment of Illegal Practices: The INA strictly prohibits employers from displacing qualified U.S. workers, including for subjective reasons like perceived cultural differences. If companies are bypassing Americans because they believe foreign-born engineers have a “better work ethic” or “superior cultural values,” they are in violation of federal law. By endorsing this narrative, you’re not only justifying these illegal actions but also providing companies with excuses to continue exploiting visa programs like H-1B and PERM.
2. It’s Not About Culture, It’s About Exploitation: The preference for foreign-born engineers is driven by cost and control, not cultural superiority. Employers often hire temporary visa holders because they can pay them less, manipulate their employment terms, and use their visa status as leverage to suppress wages and working conditions. This isn’t a meritocracy; it’s corporate exploitation that undermines both American and foreign workers. Suggesting this is about cultural flaws ignores the real systemic issue and helps perpetuate these harmful practices.
3. American Excellence Is Proven
The U.S. has long been the global leader in technology and innovation, thanks to its diverse and dynamic culture. Icons like Steve Jobs, Grace Hopper, Katherine Johnson, and countless others emerged from this very culture you criticize. The same “mediocrity” you decry is responsible for creating the Silicon Valley tech ecosystem that now avoids hiring the Americans that built them.
4. Your Dichotomy of Excellence vs. Normalcy Is Harmful: Framing success as requiring the abandonment of social experiences or leisure is not only incorrect but also damaging. Balance and well-being are critical components of sustainable achievement. Moreover, your anecdotes about immigrant families restricting TV and prioritizing STEM success propagate a narrow and stereotypical view of achievement, ignoring the variety of paths to success that American families foster.
5. Your Opinion Enables Exploitation: By blaming American culture, you’re giving companies a justification to continue displacing U.S. workers and violating the INA. This narrative helps them obscure their profit-driven motives behind a veneer of cultural critique. Instead of holding employers accountable for their exploitation of visa programs, you’re shifting the blame onto American families, students, and workers, those most harmed by these practices.
6. The Damage of Exploitative Programs: The widespread misuse of H-1B and PERM programs has had devastating effects on American workers. These programs were intended to fill labor gaps when no qualified U.S. workers are available, not to replace them. By validating these illegal practices with cultural arguments, you’re perpetuating the very harm these programs were meant to prevent.
7. Legality and Accountability Matter: You dismiss the importance of legislative action, but the INA exists precisely to ensure fair treatment of American workers. Companies shouldn’t be allowed to replace qualified U.S. citizens under the pretense of cultural deficiencies. Employers must be held accountable for hiring practices that violate the law, and American workers deserve protection not baseless criticism.
@TheDailyRising@RobertKennedyJr You didn’t. This is fake. They are talking about Trump. I know he isn’t smart enough to clip and edit videos like this but one of his employees did.
@jmurphpitt@RobertKennedyJr Fake voice overs. They are talking about Trump. I’m sure he will hear from their attorneys soon. This is something Rump would do. Or maybe someone with a worm in his head.
The police and the FBI are trained to use deadly force kill. That’s why they carry guns.
You can flag them to help in a fender bender then dead the next minute if they had reason to believe you were going to harm them. #deadlyforce#fbi#trump
I dont know if conservatives or the far right connect the dots. When a black man or women is killed during a attempted search warrant…they are using deadly force. It’s in every warrant. The FBI are the police force for the entire United States.
