?TRUMP: "I didn't change my mind on H-1B visas. I've always felt we have to have the most competent people in our country. We need smart people in our country. We need a lot of people coming in. We're going to have jobs like never before." pic.twitter.com/leGRSBbshY

Donald Trump's shifting positions on H-1B visas.

Yes, I saw it.
No, I am not blackpilled.
“President-elect Donald Trump told The Post Saturday he supports immigration visas for highly skilled workers, appearing to side with Elon Musk in the roiling intra-MAGA debate on the issue.
“I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump said by phone, referring to the H-1B program, which permits companies to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations.
“I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program,” added Trump, who restricted access to foreign worker visas in his first administration and has been critical of the program in the past. …”
Here is why:
1. First, nothing has changed. Trump didn’t campaign on ending legal immigration or the H-1B visa program. The issue was on the backburner until Christmas. Elon and Silicon Valley have always been addicted to H-1Bs. This was true two months ago and two years ago. The only thing that changed is that everyone got mad about it after Laura Loomer started the big fight over it.
2. Second, Sriram Krishnan whose appointment started all of this has nothing to do with immigration. Stephen Miller is in charge of immigration policy.
3. Third, Trump has always waffled on H-1B visas. He has said various things about it over the years and has taken different positions on it even during the 2016 campaign. Ultimately, Stephen Miller is the president of immigration and controls immigration policy.
4. Fourth, it is a good thing and a victory that the conversation is shifting from illegal immigration to legal immigration and that the MAGA base is moving to the Right on it.
5. Fifth, Congress would have to pass legislation to get rid of the H-1B program and reduce legal immigration, which was never going to happen anyway due to polarization.
In sum, the long and short of this is that legal immigration became much more controversial after Christmas. Laura Loomer deserves credit for forcing the issue. Hopefully, the Right will move further in this direction after the border calms down and illegal immigration is brought under control.
The true White traitor of 2024.
Jaye Ryan in his knee bending to muh red voters got his selection wrong.
Are you still a Trumper Brad?
I still think we will do a lot of good things.
Trump will be a net benefit, but we aren’t going to be happy with everything he does. I have really, really low expectations.
I have really low expectations, and Elon Musk has turned out to be as big a crank as Kanye West.
“4. Fourth, it is a good thing and a victory that the conversation is shifting from illegal immigration to legal immigration and that the MAGA base is moving to the Right on it.”
“Hopefully, the Right will move further in this direction after the border calms down and illegal immigration is brought under control.”
The base is already where it needs to be on this issue, Brad. If zion don isn’t ready to move on this issue now, that’s HIS fault. Jeez, stop smoking the copium already.
The minute they’re elected, they stop saying what you want to hear. Where’s Trump’s garbage truck now? Just blatant fakery.
Being “highly skilled” doesn’t make them suitable. Why can’t they use these skills to advance India?
The Left will always back legal and illegal immigration due to misguided compassion (which they never extend to whites), and the Right supports it to help GDP. It doesn’t matter if they’re an Indian non binary double amputee…..so long as they’re “productive”.
Nobody has your back. That is…….. NOBODY.
Stephen Miller is a jew, his only REAL concern is how immigration impacts Israel long term. If millions of Indians want to immigrate but they are known to be pro ZOG, it is not difficult to predict how this will end.
The snake looked up at her and said, “Lady, you knew I was a snake when you first picked me up.”
The snake is the symbol for the Tribe of Dan.
Mary Anne MacLeod trumps mom spoke Gaelic. It was her native tongue.
> Mary Anne MacLeod trumps mom spoke Gaelic. It was her native tongue.
Yes, it was Scots Gaelic though as she was from the Hebrides. Scots Gaelic and Irish are closely related languages. Welsh and Breton are also related though more distantly.
Stephen Miller is not in charge of immigration policy. He has no position at all, no department, no budget, no statutory authority, nothing. Trump keeps him around to keep normies chugging the hopium.
At least, we now know what “Dark MAGA
Is.
Dark people replacing White people legally.
There are like 700 H-1Bs at Tesla
There is still a big difference between 700 and 10 million
Tesla is not the only US corporation that will use H-1B workers.
Trump and Musk both want “lots” of them coming here. Once here, they’ll bring their families just like J.D. Vance’s jeet wife did. Did you see his thanksgiving photo? He was the sole European surrounded by a dozen East Indians.
You may want to consider not doubling down on that 78 year old fraud Trumpenstein. He betrays everyone from his wife Melania with porn whore Stormy Daniels to your guy Jeff Sessions. Hom many more examples do you need to understand that you bought into a charade?
This thing is what its always been, the wealthy elites wanting cheap labor and to manufacture cheap junk over seas, and bring it into the U.S. and sell it with minimal tariffs. They’ve always wanted to break unions, bust wages. Some populist movement, with a couple of billionaires making policy for everybody.
A big difference is scale
The Carnegies of the Gilded Age needed infinite cheap labor from Europe. Tesla has like 700 H-1Bs.
The scale of immigration into the USA at present exceeds that of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Tesla might have 700 H1Bs but there are actually many more than that since the racket was started in the 1990s.
Yes, our immigration policy was crafted in the 1960s after JFK was assassinated at the height of “Nation of Immigrants” triumphalism. It assumes an industrial era economy.
“Tesla has like 700 H-1Bs.”
700 today, 70000 in the future.
@Copperhead,
The elites used cheap labor to maximize profits since the first slaves and indentured servents were brought to this country and Carribbean islands.
President Andrew Jackson sought to bring Chinese over to help build the railroads and work in gold mines.
Woodrow Wilson and the congress gave Puerto Ricans citizenship, in order to make them eligible for the draft during WWI.
H-1Bs is just one of their modern ways along with open borders to bring as much cheap labor and “skilled workers ” here to undermine native born Americans wages and maximize profits.
It’s been a MAGA scam for quite a while.
These Indians are going to be “conservative?” In my gym I noticed an Indian working out, and he wore a T-shirt with the slogan Harris-Walz. I think that sums up whose side these people are really on, and this is simply another ploy by corporate types to convince the Trump camp that more Indians mean more conservatives. The old Mexicans-Asians-whatever have “conservative values.” Can we at least get people to see this is another worn-out con? Have SOME people at least seen through this?
@Dargason,
Indeed. South Asian vote left more than East Asians, but they both vote for the MORE leftist party (both are neoliberal) by large majorities.
To the pajeet at your gym, at least he could be excused for supporting a fellow pajeet in Harris. He was using in-group preference which we must also use. It is our great misfortune that we are forced to vote for White slithery con artist politicians like Trump to keep the non-white from power. We should have candidates that don’t just ‘talk the talk, but walk the walk’ too.
Just a reminder since I have now edited two recent comments, …….jabs taken at Wasps, Southerners, Protestants etc….. will be taken just as seriously as jabs at Catholics and ethnic whites. We are treating both matters equally especially since this is a Southern based website.
When naming leaders who have betrayed us, it isn’t necessary to tell us about their specific ethnicity ( wasp, Irish, Italian, Southern etc…..) or which branch of Christianity they belong to.
Use good judgement. If you are about to post something that you know you are intentionally posting to start an inter ethnic debate of some kind, then don’t post it at all.
Does that apply to critiquing Christian zionists too? Or are they off-limits?
Yes you can criticize Christian Zionists along with many other types of leaders who have sold us out. We just don’t want groups of people from certain regions of the country constantly brought up in disparaging ways, or various white ethnicities or branches of Christianity brought up in the same manner.
That’s fair enough. All branches of Christianity are in serious trouble from corruption, subversion, infiltration with various worldly ideologies, etc. That’s kind of been the over-arching point of my mentions of various figures who’ve sold out to the dark side. One of the major reasons our people and nations are in such terrible shape is that many have walked away from the church.

So basically, you can’t name the Papists as the enemy of British Protestantism, Ango-Saxonism, Anglo-Celtism, and by extension Americanism? What this means is that Papists, unlike Southrons and even Jews, match the Voltaire test the most at the same time they take over every political institution and movement in the South, the last remaining regional bastion of British American Protestantism. If you think it’s Yankee Protestants and Jews from the North who are descending on the South like locusts and destroying Southern culture you can’t count. The overwhelming majority are Papists. But, now we can’t criticize them for destroying Southern heritage, cuz people like them such as Nick Fuentes are “White” and Anti-Semitic good guys?
While Northern Papists are the majority behind this ravaging of the South, it is true there are other groups doing it, but we can’t criticize them too? I suppose that also means we can’t name the Yankee, which is the third most hated ethnicity in the Dissident Right behind Jews and Southrons? Yankee Protestants, who although more aligned with Southrons than Papists, are still complicit with taking over socio-economic institutions from Charleston to Nashville to the detriment of Southern elite. But, we can’t critize this or discuss how they are backing Southern Republican politicians who are enabling the cultural genocide of the South?
I suppose, the new guidelines also mean you can’t name the general Northerner either? This despite the fact the whole lot of Papists, Yankees, and Jews who are descending on the South and uniting with Latino Papists are specifically Northerners. These two groups, one from the North the other from out of the country are politically united into turning the South from the Rio Grand to the Chesepeake into an even trashier version of modern. California. So, we can’t name them either, I guess?
If we are stuck with only being able to criticize Jews, who represent a fraction of the Anti-American and Anti-Southern kulturkampf and anyone who is Pro-Israeli, then how is OD different than some Portland Anti-Fa cell? Worse, if the little Papist shiites here get to bag on Pro-Israelis non-stop, then you are going to have to allow them to name practically all Southern Protestant Christians, since like 80% of that group supports Israel. In fact, as to Southern Republicans, it might mean 95% are Pro-Israeli. Which means essentially you are back to being a platform for Anti-Semite Sperging and Anti-Israel shiite posting that regularly smears Southern Republicans by association. Sounds earily like a Democrat Front cell to me.
What these guidelines mean, is that OD pretends to be a Southern Identity publication for Hunter Wallace to spout Southern Republican viewpoints that are congruent with Southern Identitarianism, a positive, but which is commented on mostly by non-Southerns to shiitepost on Southern Identity, a negative. It returns to being a cul de sac for Neo-Nazi Papists from the North and anywhere else, to shiite post on the majority of Southerners because they happen to be supportive of Israel. This is a net loss for the movement OD pretends to be and is oncongruent with the historical movement of forces in the Right.
In summary, it appears the new guidelines continue to allow ethno-sectarian groups and individuals, but especially the most powerful, the Papists, to shiite post on the South, because “Muh Zionism,” and “Muh, Jews.” This makes the comments at OD toxic and repellent to the majority of Nationalists in America and overseas. Meanwhile, a group of neo-Nazi Papists from the North, march thru the remaining Southron institutions and movements, and gets to remove Robert E Lee statues, Hunter Wallace posts, and other Southern Kitsch like icons such as Hardee’s, Southern Sweet Tea, and Country Music to a museum where Northerners can gap and laugh at the place they conquered. What’s the point of OD then, other than being a handmaden to the likes of Nick Fuentes Groypers and Richard Spencer Alt-Rightist to push talking points helpful to the Counter-Reformation and the Latinoization of America and the South? A far better and informative standard that would be congruent with the official mission of OD, would be to allow criticism of any ethno-sectarian groups that is inimical to the South, the only remaining part of America which is actually American.
Whoever is “moderating” OD permitted the hasbara troll vent his spleen toward all of its opponent both actual and hallucinated.
I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised, as the “moderator” shares the same POV as the unit 8200 troll.
I’ll just enjoy the Schadenfreude of being proven correct on Trump and other people and areas now off-limits.
November, Hunter put AGB’s posts through because he wanted to read them after I brought them to his attention. It is his site so he can do it. AGB has long posts so it is hard to catch everything all the time.
Hunter moderates along with me , a lot of times usually after he posts a new article, and he may moderate things differently than I do. Which is fine . It is his site. Plus he is far busier than I am and doesn’t have time to edit out sentences here and there in extra long posts all the time.
All this aside, as much as I as the Moderator will commit to trying to keep things equal on here when I am editing posts on my end, at the end of the day, this is a Southern based website. Try not to get too upset if you see Southern biases filter through on here at times or Southern pride. If posters don’t like it, there are plenty of other sites to visit in our circles that don’t have Southern biases. Very many actually.
I live in the most (racially/ethnically) diverse county in the country and needless to say this is not what you want your community to become. I hope and pray for a white baby boom to bless our land because there’s NO future where I currently live. Dystopian nightmare.
