Apparently this was authorized after PDJT went to sleep for the night? The last thing we need is more foreigners taking jobs that American citizens ( including many able- bodied people still on the welfare rolls) can do

There are millions of unemployed Americans, still. It went up a lot under obama. Trump’s policies are improving things but he’s only had a short time to work at it. We don’t need to be importing more foreigners while American citizens are still unemployed , imho

Filthy rotten scumbags. Despicable scoundrels. Depraved, corrupt villains.

I wonder if they had to be bribed, or if they did it just because it harms the United States.

just sent an email to Trump-Pence asking that, if true, that this sorry action be overturned immediately.

I have an idea. How about some pressure on the Trump Administration and some members of Congress to offer Tommy Robinson asylum instead of allowing the extra flood of H2-B visas. Obviously, Tommy’s imprisonment is yet another human rights violation committed by the U.K. Tommy Robinson is a pseudonym for his work. His real name, by the way, is Stephen Lennon. Might also want to refer to him by his real name.

This is absurd and 100% contrary to Trump’s promises and governing philosophy. None of these people are needed. I met a bunch of them last summer - nice kids from eastern europe and south america that get paid minimum wage and tips to serve food and drinks at summer resorts. These are jobs that used to go to teens & college kids but they’ve been cut out by cheap foreign labor. Disgusting.

Thank you. Now here’s the truth that’s difficult for many of us to realize, but it’s absolutely necessary for us to know for tactical reasons. If you watch this video all the way through, you’ll get a peek at one of the sons of the class of people behind the migrations.

It’s the same constituency here, in the States, FRiends. I’ve seen them face to face around resort areas. They’re the ones dragging the hordes in. It’s the political/regulator class, brainwashed in contemporary universities.

Not that we sleep in the same room, but do recall he seldom sleeps.

That said, Mr. Trump, FEW call this ‘winning’.

They certainly won’t do unskilled work if they’re generational freeloaders....never working in the fields.

I note this is for the summer so it appears this is for crops etc.

I’m on the fence about this....I say this because I’ve worked with ‘our’ teens before and they don’t do anything more than they have to and whine throughout. So I don’t buy these kids want these jobs....they have overinflated ideas of what they should be paid from the get go as well.

....”while American citizens are still unemployed”....

Now wait a minute...if they’re unemployed than why is it the numbers are so low and employeer’s are complaining a shortage of workers????

Are we not to believe that America is back to working as is so often reported?

Has it not been reported, and Trump saying there’s a shortage of workers? With so many companies hiring and not getting enough workers what other options can he use to keep the momentum going in pace with the companies growing and hiring?

We also know that there’s momentum to get vocationa schools going again so we have workers right her trained.

I can say this...when the Oil people to PA. hiring for truck drivers etc. wtc. they could NOT find enough people...so they opened training at the unemployment offices to sign up for those. Far too many would not. It was easier to collect unemployment or stay on the welfare rolls.

SO I’m not buying there’s all these people who NEED jobs.
