None of the ICE protests are organic, public opinion is being subverted by dark money. Leftists are the ones stupid and broke enough to take these jobs. Also foreign sabotage teams.
REVEALED: An anti-ICE protest group advertised PAID organizing jobs at up to $36 AN HOUR. Hourly pay. Bonuses. Daily fundraising targets. The group is GAIA. Its job advertisement names “ICE Breakers” among the campaigns recruits would work on, alongside organizing and fundraising duties. Its published Home Depot campaign has this goal: “shut down every Home Depot in LA for one day” Its Hilton campaign pressures hotels to stop housing ICE agents and encourages refundable reservations followed by cancellations within hotel policies. And an October 24–25 training will rehearse a fictional campaign against “Stilton Hotels” and an immigration-enforcement agency called “FICE.” The curriculum includes choosing targets, nonviolent direct action and “OPSEC & Security Culture.”

Incredible, no administration has done more for me than 47.
Vice President JD Vance announces the suspension of the PERM Program for Microsoft: "Thanks to an ongoing investigation, we have decided to suspend the PERM program for Microsoft, which means they will no longer be able to take those H1-Bs and apply for permanent resident status within the United States of America. Now our message to Microsoft and to any other foreign or domestic corporation is quite simple. We obviously want you to thrive in the United States of America. We want people to invest in the United States of America, particularly the American technology sector. We’re the biggest boosters of your industry. We want you to continue to grow and to employ a lot of people, but we want you to employ American workers. And so our message to Microsoft is, you’re great American company, but you’ve got to hire great American workers. You cannot lay off American workers and then replace them with foreign indentured servants."

BREAKING: DHS just proposed a $70,000 fee for OPT. $70,000 for the first year. $30,000 for every extension after that. ICE says the fees are to stop fraud and protect American workers. This is still a proposal. It hits the Federal Register tomorrow. 30 days to comment. Docket ICEB-2026-0100 public-inspection.federalreg…

Crazy time period we live in.
If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 2026 Midterm Elections, I’m going to give all adult citizens in the United States of America, $5,000! Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to signing those checks!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This $5,000 “Trump Dividend” promise was first made in Sept. 2026. Similar prior DOGE and tariff check pledges have not been paid out. It would cost ~$1.2 trillion and require congressional approval. pbs.org/newshour/polit… washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/…

Recently did interview with large Fiserv company. All 5 of my interviewers were Foreign Indians…. They are extending me an offer. I’m shocked, 1 interviewer was clear did not like me. Is this a sign hiring is changing top down? As in H1Bs and other foreign higher are seen as business risk. Unsure, I’m not planning to take the job, I don’t want to work with non-Americans.

I had an interview at a fiserv company this week. My interviewer is/was clearly H1b it. Was not a friendly interview vs. adversarial. The days of excluding Americans should be over.
🚨 BREAKING: THIS IS HUGE. THE WHITE HOUSE JUST PUT AMERICAN LAYOFFS DIRECTLY INTO THE H-1B REVIEW PROCESS. President Trump signed a new executive order TODAY. Federal agencies are now directed to consider whether an H-1B sponsoring employer: Laid off similarly situated American workers during the previous year OR Plans to lay them off in the future. And there’s more. The Labor Department has 30 DAYS to begin reviewing previously submitted H-1B Labor Condition Applications to determine whether action against sponsoring employers is warranted. Think about the implications. A company lays off thousands of American tech workers. Then turns around and says it needs H-1B workers. The government is now explicitly being told: LOOK AT THE LAYOFFS. This is exactly the question companies should have been forced to answer all along. whitehouse.gov/presidential-…

This is great, next play is to leave NATO and stop funding Europe socialism.
BREAKING NEWS: I am pleased to announce that the United States of America has entered into an Agreement with The Kingdom of Denmark, and Greenland, that gives the United States permanent control over security, and all other needs, in Greenland, completely addressing ALL of our many U.S. concerns. There will be NO COST to the United States! At my direction, we worked with representatives of Denmark and Greenland to guarantee that the United States will FOREVER have the complete ability to do what is necessary in Greenland in order to secure and defend the security of Greenland, and the United States of America. Additionally, from now on, no U.S. adversary can EVER have a base in Greenland, have a military presence in Greenland, or make sensitive investments in Greenland, without our express written approval. For over 100 years, Presidents have known the strategic importance of Greenland, but NONE of them were able to do anything about it. I am proud to be the President that permanently and conclusively addressed this very important situation. This is an “Infinite Life” Agreement, there is no end! We are very honored and proud of what has just taken place, and everything agreed to today will be cherished by the American People. We will immediately begin the process of developing a large Military presence in the appropriate part of Greenland, of which there are many. We will work with the people of Greenland in its development and construction. This solution is a great one for the United States of America, Denmark, Greenland, and all of our Allies. We look forward to working with the wonderful people of Denmark and Greenland toward a magnificent future with respect to this large, and highly strategic, parcel of land. We will be very protective of it! This is a dream come true for the United States of America, one that is very important, historic, and special. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

This is a sound explanation.
In case you are having trouble figuring out what’s going on here is a summary: Anthropic and OpenAI desperately need regulatory capture or they are going to go out of business, and the Trump administration is not inclined to give it to them The Democratic party currently has no platform, as Trump is doing fine (other than perhaps the Iran war but Americans don’t really care about that), but they have identified that AI and data centers are a hot topic that they can ride So these two somewhat desperate groups have teamed up to run a psyop around the actual real topic of AI safety, greatly exaggerating the risks, with the understanding that if the Democrats get back into power they will provide the regulatory capture needed to keep these companies alive In return, these companies will support the Democratic Party and help to enforce left-wing ideology through the models Kind of sucks, but that’s what’s happening, and we need to oppose it because it will not be good if this plan succeeds

Trump term 2 has done more for my career than any president in my lifetime. The H1B program and body shops are nothing but wage suppression.
