White House scrambles to clear up H-1B visa confusion after panic throws corporate America into chaos overnight

I see Stephen Miller all over this. He hates all foreigners. He thinks white workers without the technical expertise should get these jobs.

Talk about a President that absolutely sucks on the economy.

States looser firearms laws have higher levels of firearms crimes. Prove me wrong.


No, you stated a "fact" so YOU have to back it up.

And you ignore most crime is not going to be gun crime.

Blue cities have crime problems, anyone can see that. Lefties can't handle it.

As far as Corvrttes…. It’s a wife thing, not a me thing! I’m quite content with my Tiguan.

As far as me caring about what the minimum wage is, I was paid minimum wage decades ago. It was $2.65 an hour. It was a strong stimulus to get an education and improve my station in life. I never felt that I was due more by some government force. If there was no mandated minimum wage I’m guessing the market would have been set somewhere around that $2.65. As I’ve said a gazillion times, be worth more to a business than that artificial
minimum wage and you’ll be paid more.

You either believe in the free market for wages like I do, or having the government tell businesses what they must pay

Before the U.S. federal minimum wage was established in 1938, hourly wages varied significantly by employer and industry, with no legal floor. The first federal minimum wage was set at 25 cents per hour.


The stories I've read explain why the labor movement came along.

I don’t think it’s needed now. The market has set absolute bottom wages in my neck of the woods ABOVE what the legal minimum wage is. Entry level factory jobs requiring no experience and, essentially, no skills, are offering $25 an hour. Legal minimum wage here is $15.50.

Offer $10 now. You’d get no takers.

Nope. Voting for a Democrat is (almost) never a rational choice. If the prosecutor said she wouldn’t prosecute after illegal searches, well duh, that would be fine. But that’s not what she said. Tell me what you mean by ‘certain firearm crimes’ and I’ll answer.

Left unhappy with Kimmel not being on a TV channel. Result? Protest one day, no change, then shoot up the station the next day.

By the way, GREAT laughs from Harris’ book. All sorts of excuses as to WHY she had to choose Walz! Babble about tough to vote for a Black woman married to a Jew, and you can’t add a gay guy to that ticket. Nor a guy (Shapiro) who actually wanted to do something instead of hiding in the background as VP (like she did!).

Yeah, those voters got what they voted for…. ANYONE but a Democrat. It’s too bad it was Trump, but better than ANY Democrat.


Total nonsense, nobody shot up a station because Kimmel got fired, this is sheer projection.

So you really think it was a coincidence that the day after an unsuccessful protest at the station about Kimmel’s removal, that the station was opened fire on, and it was about something else? What did the station also air, anti 49ers stories?

At least Rx fantasized that it was MAGA just trying to make the left look bad.
