@EricLDaugh Only 2.5% of immigrants under Biden are working on rural farms. For every 1 farm worker, there are 40 more in cities driving blue collar wages into the dirt, harming legitimate businesses who play by the rules, and bankrupting the governments over health care and education costs
@RealJamesWoods Only 2.5% of immigrants under Biden are working on rural farms.
The dirty secret is immigrants don’t want these jobs either.
As we’ve seen in LA, SO many illegals in urban cities, driving down wages for blue collar jobs and bankrupting governments on health care and education.
@ImMeme0 It's the same story among H1B/F1/OPT workers. Their "knowledge" and "talents" have zero value back home. So, they stay at any cost, working any job for any pay.
They are purely a scam to force Americans into asymmetric competition to force wages into the dirt.
@WilliamPenn88@Cernovich The highly educated Americans are applying for jobs with 500 applicants because the country is flooded by H1B.
There are 5+ qualified applicants for every grad school slot to BECOME highly educated. Every foreign students selected for these coveted spots displaces a US applicant
@elonmusk@grok H1B/F1/OPT displace qualified Americans from STEM careers and keep pay from increasing for entry level jobs and graduate school stipends as it would in an actual shortage. With rare exceptions, the best and brightest are usually American born or American educated, or both.
@SenRickScott No better time to remember that radical Democrats in the Senate held the widely supported bipartisan Balanced Budget Amendment 1 vote short of the 2/3 needed in 1997.
Democrats are 100% to blame for this, let’s focus the blame where it rightly belongs.
@L0m3z You have to realize that a small but vocal minority wants to oppose all development all the time.
Any mechanism to facilitate common sense sale and development will be bitterly fought because they want to slow walk every transaction.
The process is their punishment.
@L0m3z@BasedMikeLee@SenateGOP@HouseGOP What about federal land that artificially restrict common sense development?
The US Forest Service has kept this empty field locked up for decades. They’re building high-rise parking terrace like it’s Manhattan, when there are many acres of empty land right there. Senseless.
@BasedMikeLee This empty field adjacent to the University of Utah biomedical research campus has been locked up by the US Forest Service for decades.
They could build a row a affordable housing right along there, within walking distance of the school, hospitals, mass transit, everything.
@BasedMikeLee A reminder that Democrats regularly designated private and state lands as national monuments against the wishes of the owners, thousands of acres at a time.
But when Feds own prime land that should be used for responsible development, it will stay locked up forever.
@JSlaughterEsq An unaccountable bureaucracy locking up barren land abutting significant public investments in the name of "conservation" is a perfect example of bad government.
The University of Utah has been artificially constrained by this knife edge of the US Forest Service for decades.
@BasedMikeLee So much land is now senselessly locked up by an unaccountable bureaucracy.
This barren field next to the University of Utah Biomedical research campus and 3 hospitals has been locked up by the US Forest Service for decades. They won't even allow an extra strip of paved parking.
@SenMikeLee@POTUS Parking rates skyrocketing 10% per year.

This land is not pristine, it is not special, it is just a barren field next to a huge biomedical research campus and 3 hospitals that the Forest Service insists on keeping locked up.
This isn't "conservation".
@SenMikeLee@POTUS Here is an example where US Forest Service land abuts the University of Utah east campus. Parking lots stop right at the border. Students are forced to pay $1500 per year for terraced garage parking because the USFS won't allow another strip of paved parking to be built.
@BenjiBacker 270M acres for Homesteads
70M acres for land sales
150M acres for state lands
60M acres for veterans
25M acres for timber and mining
180M acres for railroads
Mike Lee wants only 3M more released from federal lockup, the current level is arbitrary, there's no basis for keeping it
@baseballcrank 68% of Americans want access maintained. Congress could act, but they are incompetent.
This is a condemnation of Congress stalling. They have zero legislation pending today, meaning they tacitly approve what Trump is doing.
Attacking Trump for Congress' failure is predictable
@glennbeck@SenMikeLee 270M acres for Homesteads
70M acres for land sales
150M acres for state lands
60M acres for veterans
25M acres for timber and mining
180M acres for railroads
Mike Lee wants only 3M more released from federal lockup, and everyone is losing their minds over it???
@Izengabe_ ‘Our plan is Social Security’ was the statement by Minority leader Nancy Pelosi.
In other words they were anti-reform, period.
As we all collective drive full speed into the brick wall of trust fund insolvency, remember this was the Democrats preferred outcome.
@Izengabe_ True. Bush set up a bipartisan presidential commission who made 4 different recommendations.
Democrats played politics obstructing all 4 while offering no plan of their own.
This scheme paid off with Democrats taking the majority in the House with Speaker Nancy a Pelosi.
@Izengabe_ When it comes to raw politics inflicting lasting harm on the country, the Democrat scheme to sink needed SS Reform in 2005 while offering no plan of their own is second only to Democrats keeping the Balanced Budget Amendment of 1997 one vote short of 2/3 in the Senate.
