on whether Donald Trump will nominate Ken Braithwaite to succeed Carlos
Del Toro and how much does Amy Swonger estimate it will cost Trump to
convince John Thune to consent:

| "What we've got to do is open up the spigot a bit, basically, on
| legal immigration to allow blue-collar workers to come here ... so
| they can actually work in our shipyards and be employed by the types
| of trades that are open to shipyard workers," Navy Secretary Carlos
| Del Toro told a meeting in Arlington Va.
|
| Del Toro's call for migrant shipbuilders comes amid a shipbuilding
| crisis where many U.S. warships are being delivered far behind
| schedule, sometimes with deep flaws, Forbes reported in 2021 that
| the United States:
|
||     builds less than 10 vessels for oceangoing commerce in a typical
|| year. China builds over a thousand such ships each year. The entire
|| U.S.-registered fleet of oceangoing commercial ships numbers fewer
|| than 200 vessels, out of a global total of 44,000.
|
| However, the administration's support for mass migration reduces the
| pressure on state governments and companies to train the next
| generation of Americans for skilled jobs.
|
| The government's inflow of cheap migrants also provides CEOs and
| investors with an easy excuse to avoid the difficult task of raising
| per-person productivity. Boosting productivity usually requires
| executives to manage a painful mix of training, automation,
| reorganization, risk, and innovation.

Will GoIAM.ORG's Bob Martinez endorse Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for
WhiteHouse.GOV?

"A problem with the right is that we don't have a media ecosystem
that's independent of Trump and his Twitter grifters, which is why
they're able to work everyone into a lather over nothing. Charlie
Kirk was one of the only media people who did some actual reporting
amid all this." - Pedro Gonzalez
