MEDIA: How the H-1B System Undercuts American Workers

Professor Matloff for Sohrab Ahmari's Compact Magazine on whether
Donald Trump will attempt to enlist VP JD Vance to serve as Deputy
Chief Sales Critter for Trump's bi-partisan, comprehensive, merit-
based immigration reform legislation authored by the Cheap Labor Lobby
and passed by Mike Johnson's House.GOV and John Thune's Senate.GOV:

| Concerns about the H-1B visa program emerged soon after it was
| enacted. Bill Clinton's Secretary of Labor Robert Reich was an early
| critic, and his Department of Labor found widespread abuse. Some
| years later, he wrote that the officially recognized median wage for
| H-1B visas in computer-related occupations was "way below" the
| actual median wage--exactly the problem Lofgren noted. This was no
| accident. The H-1B program was deliberately set up to hire younger,
| cheaper foreign workers in lieu of older, more expensive Americans.

Does Peter Thiel worry it will de-rail the Vance 2028 WhiteHouse.GOV
campaign train and besides Little Marco Rubio and Desanctimonius Ron
DeSantis, who does Susie Wiles anticipate entering the 2028 race?

"In a mostly symbolic message that will gain massive attention,
President Trump now starts to revoke the Security Clearances of
multiple IC officials who have been exposed as an outcome of the
Biden Laptop operation. I say 'symbolic' because President Trump is
well aware of the IC motives, and they have been removed from
influence over the executive branch operation; more on that later."
