Did the immigrants get the NIH research on pediatric brain cancer cancelled. Please provide cites so I can share with parents.

And so have the elites that have nothing but contempt for US workers

You can't promote higher wages and mass migration. Left is losing the common man.



What? I have yet to see a single person backed by big business come out for a living wage. Don't be fooled by the (Very Few) Americans for (Just Our) Prosperity BS.

WSJ Post on H1B reduces US worker wages -> https://archive.ph/f8bOk#selection-4423.12-4423.212

A new research paper on the effects of the H-1B visa program on workers suggests the influx of skilled foreign workers has historically led to lower wages and employment for American tech workers.


There are few jobs more portable than tech jobs.

Either we import the talent or they export the job.


BS if the job can be done from home, it can be done anywhere.


If they can do it from India why can't we do it from home?


Because Big Tech like other industries want butts in seats in their offices, not in your home. That can be in India or somewhere in the States.

What they're rightfully rejecting is current policy which is unfettered immigration. America has been overwhelmed by unfettered immigration. Add to that the flood of illegal immigrants, and they're fed up.

Are you being deliberately obtuse? Why?


Our policies are incoherent. We import foreign STEM workers rather than hire the ones we already have and who do want to do the work, and we deport people doing grunt work that Americans don't want to do, like farming and cleaning and construction and landscaping.

Why are we, and especially MAGA, so obtuse about that? Sure, secure the borders. Sure, deport violent criminals. But why aren't we giving visas to the workers we actually need? And why are supposed Christians so hypocritical about refugees?


You want to know why. It's because any and every immigration policy has been abused. You want that "Christian" goodwill, but you are abusing it. Take a look in the mirror buddy. Maybe you should import more Christians if that is what you want.



What? Seriously, what?

Ah those damn deplorables

When did it become moral or ethical to replace our own children with cheap disposable foreign labor to make millionaires wealthier ??

Where did you learn that as a morality?


Stop voting in the billionaires and sniffing their jocks, dummy. Otherwise, you’re the problem.


This may be one of my fave DCUM replies ever though I'm not even certain of the angle here.

The average American foaming at the mouth about illegal immigration experiences no consequences from illegal immigration except for maybe cheaper strawberries at the grocery store. But they’re told by some low IQ dweebs on TV that “immigrants bad!” so they make hating illegals their whole identity.

Turn off the TV and pick up a book. Maybe go for a walk.


Yes! So folks, go and pick all your berries, fruits, and veggies, then get back to us. I grew up doing that. There's a reason why I'm no longer on the farm.

My loyalty is to America. What we saw with Obama is that we had a lot of immigrants coming here & the thought was you could be who you are. No, you need to assimilate. You need to act like an American.

radical opinion to the DEI crowd.



You're a knucklehead if you think this all started under Obama.

But that is not the fault that the immigrants. that’s the fault of the billionaires and the tech companies who don’t want to pay Americans liable wages so they hire h1bs.


How about this:
Immigrants (the people) are NOT the problem.

Mass immigration/migration (the policy, the event, whatever) leading to lower wages and other issues IS a problem.

Don’t hate the player, hate the game. And hate the people in charge who kept screwing up the game and not protecting US citizens’ interests.

Sounds like he’s not as good as them or expects more money than them. Or more likely both.


DP. Gosh you are stupid. Maybe PP’s son simply does not want to work like a slave. There is nothing wrong with that.

Do better.


Bet he doesn't have kids in a school where teachers spend much of their time assisting 50% or more of their kids with English while other kids wait for science, history, and social studies lessons to proceed. Those kids are hardworking, well behaved, and precious; but don't pretend there's no impact on learning.

It doesn’t really matter any more. Even “legal” immigrants if there are too many of them can cause a lot of problems.

U.S. companies have announced over 1.1 million job cuts in 2025 – the highest since the dot-com bust. October alone saw 153,074 layoffs, the most for any October in over 20 years. AI adoption, automation, and rising costs are driving cuts across technology, warehousing, and other sectors. Seasonal hiring plans are the lowest since tracking began in 2012. Newly laid-off Americans face a diminished hiring environment, with companies announcing the fewest hiring plans since 2011.

Yet we continue importing more than one million new foreign workers annually through legal immigration, with chain migration driving a significant portion. President Trump has stopped illegal entries and is enforcing immigration laws, but only Congress can end chain migration.

Where are democrats??

Why do they push for more and more immigration??

Agree

Tech billionaires game the system to bring in too many of the workers we don't need (H1B) causing problems for the American STEM workforce that DOES what those jobs.

Meanwhile, we don't give enough visas for the workers that we do need, for jobs that Americans DON'T want, like agriculture, meat packing, cleaning etc.

It's a problem manufactured by bad policy.

Trump didn't "stop illegal entries" - they are still happening, but at a lower rate than they were.

And what do you mean, "where are the Democrats?" Maybe you forgot you voted to put Republicans in charge, so it's on them to do it.

Some Republicans have talked about legislation to limit chain migration, and some Democrat support do support reforms, but where the Republicans go wrong is by trying to make it too narrow, like not allowing sponsorship of parents or siblings, and when they tie their legislation to other MAGA nonsense that no Democrat will get behind. Also, some of the Republican proposals have other problems, like if a parent did get a visa sponsored by a naturalized child, the parent's visa would bar the parent from being able to work, which makes little sense to me.
