Congress: Watch what happens when you post receipts instead of a press release.

Credit to @USLaborIG for treating those receipts like evidence.

[Inspector General Anthony D'Esposito @USLaborIG]

A secure border means locking every door, including the H-1B back door.

Fake employers. Sham jobs. Visa mills. Worker exploitation.

The loopholes are closing. The raids are real. The handcuffs are ready.

Under @POTUS, America First means American workers first.

@a_know_nothing If you have a better way of explaining this - please help me out. I sometimes feel like I’m screaming into the void about the risks we are facing from farming out IT works for foreign nationals.

I’ve been asked what I know about the Abbott Impact App. I know I won’t download it onto my phone, here’s why:

Abbott Impact appears to be a white-labeled Right Impact app. Google Play shows the Abbott app’s internal Android identifier as com.RightImpact. This is basically the software’s original name tag under the Abbott branding.

Right Impact then officially rebranded as Right Insight in January 2026. The current Right Insight App Store listing says “Formerly known as Right Impact,” and its Jan. 12 update says: “Right Impact is now called Right Insight.”

To no one’s surprise, an India-based freelancing developer named Apurva Mistry, based in Vadodara, Gujarat, publicly says he worked on Right Insight/Right Impact’s voter-outreach mobile platform, including development, build and deployment.

And this isn’t some harmless campaign-news app. Abbott Impact asks Texans to upload their contacts so they can be matched against the voter file. Abbott tells users their data is “100% secure,” and its privacy policy says all data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Yet the campaign’s own Google Play Data Safety disclosure currently says: “Data isn’t encrypted.”

I don’t know which disclosure is wrong. But until Abbott explains who had access to this data, from where and why its own security claims don’t match, I know enough about Abbott Impact to know it isn’t going on my phone.

@IronBrigade00 They’ll do anything to keep their hustle running.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

I’d love to know exactly who submitted this comment.

[Grace Chong, MBI @gc22gc]

U-M is exempt from the $103K H1B fee, but it’s still lobbying DHS to kill it so its foreign students can keep moving into U.S. jobs Americans compete for.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@FaithInElon @RoadDogUSA @nataliegwinters Yeah it’s on my list alongside speech pathologists but tbh it’s getting very difficult to keep up with all of these schemes.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@Caesar4Texas I know I don’t but Greg Abbott keeps welcoming it.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

Texas: Here’s nearly $44 million to bring 3,800 jobs to Dallas.

Morgan Stanley training:

CASTE
CITIZENSHIP
“PRIYA’S RETURN TO WORK”

You genuinely could not write the parody any better.

I can only imagine what we are getting when their discrimination training specifically lists “caste” and “citizenship” as examples of protected characteristics.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@hamzakhan04 Stick to Pakistan.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

“It’s Alabama - It’s rural, of course they have to rely on foreign medical graduates.”

Cool, here’s non-rural BronxCare Pediatrics in New York City.

Class of 2027: 15/15 attended foreign medical schools
Class of 2028: 15/15
Class of 2029: 13/14

43 of 44. 97.7%.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

When you hear “Baptist hospital in Montgomery, Alabama,” is this the residency class you picture?

Broken laws got us to the point where we have a doctor trained at the Government Medical College in Bhavnagar, India leading a residency program where 23/24 residents are foreign med school grads.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@NewbieForeva Just like most of big tech.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

The crew gathered around to say, “Thanks Greg!”

[Governor Abbott Press Office @GovAbbottPress]

Governor Abbott announced Morgan Stanley will establish a new U.S. hub in Dallas, creating more than 3,800 jobs and investing more than half a billion dollars in Texas.

Texas is the financial capital of America, and opportunity’s address is now Y’all Street.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@GinaHinojosaTX Morgan Stanley hires so many visa workers that they literally have to train their employees that Caste and Citizenship are protected status.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@DAngstrom50283 @SarahHuckabee Most of these politicians need to dump their consultants and get into the data themselves. Maybe then they’d understand what’s actually happening.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

Sarah doesn’t understand Brad wasn’t just sitting on the couch.

Brad applied to hundreds of jobs in Bentonville. He made it through round after round of interviews and still didn’t get hired. He’s sitting on $40,000 in debt for the education he was told would give him a future.

Meanwhile, the biggest employer in Bentonville is laying off and reorganizing corporate workers while continuing to file thousands of H-1B labor applications.

Maybe the story isn’t as simple as “young American man is lazy and refuses to work.”

[Sarah Huckabee Sanders @SarahHuckabee]

You pay taxes to cover welfare for people who just choose not to work. That’s why I launched a welfare-to-work requirement.

If you’re young, healthy, and get government assistance, you should work, go to school, or volunteer.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@4CatFarms Yes. It’s becoming unlivable in Texas.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

As least someone is looking into contracting waste.

[Gina Hinojosa @GinaHinojosaTX]

Of the TWO candidates running for governor of Texas, only ONE increased property taxes, that’s Greg Abbott.

He took over Houston ISD and increased taxes last year AND controlled who received those vendor contracts.

Abbott lies about me to hide his record of skyrocketing property taxes and growing state govt. I have never, not once, voted to increase taxes. I have only voted to decrease them.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@RosswornTerry @suitedconnect I agree - I’m over the target and more people are seeing the same things I am.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

“Texas First” is the brand, replacement is the product.

He’s Usin’ Texas.

English teachers imported, residency seats filled from overseas, state contracts given to H-1B dependent vendors and the door wide open to Hyderabad.

If Abbott’s actually putting Texas first - show me where.

[Texas Spectator @TexasSpectator]

@MarkFarmer93 @GovAbbottPress Oh, he is going back to india for round 10 in January 2027.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@BTT1024 Are they capable?

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@BakerVanover @suitedconnect 💯

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@KenPaxtonTX @mos6493 Emphasis on quality.

62% of his first year residents went to a med school in his native Pakistan.

Seems normal - right?

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@gc22gc The vets will get laid off as soon as they get the bonus for hiring them.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

@funkychicken @MendlovitzMark @SarahHuckabee @GovMikeHuckabee @mattforney Instead, she doubled down on it.

[Nick Plumb @PlumbNick]

“Some critics online”

[Sarah Huckabee Sanders @SarahHuckabee]

Some critics online don't like my welfare work requirement ad. Next thing you know they’ll say I should have used cookies instead of cheese balls. If you are able-bodied you should not collect welfare simply because you choose not to work. Period. WATCH->
