@twinsrin2@RepPress@KatiePavlich Its not only a ballroom. @grok what else is being built in the white house ballroom in addition to the actual ballroom?
@bradhoylman@NewYorkStateAG Please do this for disabled people! They should not be excluded from sports they love due to their disability! It's hateful and discriminatory.
Track and field, basketball, baseball, etc. Kids should not be excluded just because of prosthetics or additional needs.
@nycpa They have a right to play- with other players who match their chromosomal sex.
If you have a y chromosome- you play on the y chromosome league.
Easy- that's science. Most people now have a test done in the first trimester that checks the chromosomes.
@LAMBCHOPS2721@nycpa If they are handicapped they can't compete with non-disabled people. I want to see someone wearing running prosthetics smoke every runner in the NYC marathon. Hell- I want to see high performance wheelchair users leave runners in the dust.
@gtconway3d How about you shut up you ableist piece of crap?
Do you really want to go back to handicaped people being excluded from white house events because they are are in some hobo tent with an unsteady floor?
Be grateful that you can walk and walk away from this stupid opinion.
When we started Jobs Now we really thought the hidden jobs problem would be solved in one year.
We thought it was so egregious - Microsoft running newspaper ads asking for paper mail applications for Blizzard developers, apply to Global Mobility (Immigration), while laying off thousands of those SAME workers- that public outrage would be immediate (it was!)
And the fix was so simple - DOL writes a new regulation. PERM ads have to be posted on your website! No hiding in the back of the print newspaper! Easy! Done in 6 months!
Again and again, our government has been presented with easy ways to stop American Immigration Replacement - with or without Congress.
Ban hidden jobs.
End OPT & stop paying companies to replace new grads with foreigners.
End H4EAD.
And they haven't done it.
From the outside, it looks to us like there is a real disinterest in the core work of governing. Filling out the paperwork, changing the rules, making sure the department policies are putting AMERICANS FIRST, day in and day out as they ought to.
That will never work. Sometimes people are frustrated with the specifics we ask for - we have deliberately taken an "eat your vegetables" approach to policy. Memes and crazy pronouncements are fun, but what will actually change your lives and ours is the slow, unglamorous work of changing the rules to make sure Americans are always at the front of the line.
So we will say it again, for everyone to hear:
Ban hidden jobs.
End OPT/H4EAD/CPT - the visa alphabet soup!
For gods sake REPEAL THE H1B.
Or you will never get elected again.
@ChiefEngineerCE Before COVID, companies were already getting rid of this type of office. People would go into an office full of people they didn't work with to do calls with offshore workers in SE Asia.
If companies onshore our teams, we will RTO.
If an American company has more than 2/3 of its employees in another country than it should not be considered a US company. No tax breaks. No preferential treatment for govt projects or purchasing.

Had the worst chef's table ever- indonesian/Philippino chef and Indian sommelier. Hard to understand and half the wines were not good.
Really miss the Jamaican chefs with flavorful dishes and decent sommelier who know about wine and didn't just memorize a script.
Zohran Mamdani and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were spotted giggling as people wept during the annual reading of names during the 9/11 memorial ceremony.
The camera transitioned to Mamdani and Cortez after showing a man weeping as the names were read.
@ReichlinMelnick A guy who reports to me has 2 masters (finance and computer science) from India. I show him how to do basic excel steps. His excuse? "My university could not afford Excel so we watched YouTube videos about it."
@WEmmanuelle@biccat1@ShawnEni Why would you use another program than your native messaging system?
Really, the only people who ever ask to message through WhatsApp are 3rd worlders.
@UnrealGamesProf@ChiefEngineerCE Nope, high priority project requires south American contingent workers. Having someone in the same timezone is a huge benefit.
We've discovered that 1) south American engineers code better than Indians and 2) Indians will use the time difference to drag out projects.
@ChiefEngineerCE There are people inside the companies pushing against outsourced workers and trying to get grads like you jobs.
Working with third world engineers is terrible.
@ChiefEngineerCE My team just got cleared for a $100,000+ salary for a new software engineer. I said that's great- can we get a new grad from the local state college?
Nope, must be someone from south America through our outsourcing company.
I am sorry that you are going through this.
