lol you think immigration is a real concern? remember the convoy, or the W Bush era?

half of US farms, meat packing, restaurants, construction, etc. rely on undocumented labor. the GOP owned the house and Senate for years, and could have crushed it well before now.

they don't because a lot of big business want these illegals, and the same folks backing the new administration -- aka tech bros like Musk and Thiel -- are totally down with H1Bs



The thing with H1Bs is you can be against them whether you’re bothered about immigration or not.

Pity it wasn’t on the ballot.
