    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 11 11:39:11 2025
    Axios' Ben Berkowitz and Mike Allen on whether Donald Trump will
    order Kristi Noem to order DHS.GOV to ask the Big Tech Bros to use
    their masters of the universe powers to de-amplify the legacy American
    proles co-opting their websites to spew mal-information regarding the
    Cheap Labor Lobby's efforts to dispossess them and their posterity: <URL:https://www.axios.com/2024/12/28/musk-war-h1b-racists-maga-doge>
    | The intrigue: Though Trump has been mostly quiet on the matter,
    | those around him have started showing their hands.
    |
    | Michael Seifert, the CEO of online marketplace Public Square,
    | whose board of directors includes Donald Trump Jr., took to social
    | media Friday to say the H-1B program was "destroying the lives of
    | American workers."
    | Steve Bannon, one of the longest-tenured voices in Trump's
    | orbit, had multiple guests on his show this week to talk about his
    | hardline anti-H-1B views.
    | Bannon tells Axios he helped kick off the debate with a now-
    | viral Gettr post earlier this month calling out a lack of support
    | for the Black and Hispanic communities in Big Tech.
    | On Saturday Bannon called Musk a "toddler" in a Gettr post, and
    | in another post accused him and Ramaswamy of attacking American
    | workers, families and culture.

    Did NeverBackDown.ORG's Ken Cuccinelli and Steve Cortes advise Casey
    and Ron DeSantis to spend the campaign donations from the likes of
    Miriam Adelson, Edward DeBartolo, Robert Bigelow, Walter Buckley,
    Betsy DeVos, Julie Jenkins Fancelli, Ken Griffin, Julia Koch, Bernie
    Marcus, Lachlan Murdoch, Thomas Peterffy, Bruce Rauner, Chris Reyes,
    David Sacks and Steve Wynn to buy campaign advertisements on Murdoch's FoxNews.COM with the likes of Mike Emmons impeaching Donald Trump for
    failing to convert the Cheap Labor Lobby's H-1B scab worker import
    quota lottery to a wage ordered queue?
