@WeWillBeFree24 I believe write in constitutional Amendments are the future but it has to be state by state.

Ohioans are pushing back on data centers. An Ohio group just submitted 1,800 signatures (step 1) to petition for an Ohio Constitutional Amendment to ban hyperacale data centers. The group states that Ohioans currently have no say-so in data center development, and how it will affect our communities. They are correct, we don't. Ohio legislators, would like to keep it that way. To get the amendment on the ballot in the General Election November 2026, AG Yost has 10 days to determine if the petition is "fair and truthful." If approved, 413,488 signatures from 44 of the 88 counties must be collected and verified by July 1st. All Ohioans should be invested in getting the amendment on the ballot.

You might not realize it but... It's worse for Indians they are scammed more than any other region out there. I know ...right? Their phones are near useless with the scam calls. They don't trust their own financial institutions and it's likely every company that has offshored there is being drained of every cent in kickbacks and corruption. There are X accounts dedicated to reporting the mysterious fees, accounts vanishing, and which companies are not to be trusted. This is the culture and their own media reports it non-stop.

@bitchuneedsoap @EB6466426015725 Correction.. cognizant lost. Disney lost way more than they ever saved after Desantis took their municipal rights away for it, as well.

In 2015, Disney called 250 IT workers into a meeting. They thought they were getting bonuses. Disney told them they were being replaced by workers flown in from India on H-1B visas, and if they didn't spend the next 90 days training those replacements, they'd lose their severance. Leo Perrero testified before Congress about it. Appeared on 60 Minutes. "Someone was flown in from another country to sit at my same desk and take over what I was doing. It was the most humiliating thing I've ever gone through in my life." Two workers sued Disney, HCL, and Cognizant for colluding to illegally displace American workers. Courts dismissed it. Disney Magic.

@Its_ereko Okay .. out of my feed you go 'African'

@libsoftiktok How many of those rushing to leave literally voted for this? If they didn't know the trajectory then they shouldn't have been in the voting booth.

WTF. Thurston County, WA, becomes first in the nation to pass an ordinance FORCING people to obtain a certain "home energy score" before they're allowed to sell their house. The goal? Reduce carbon emissions... These climate change cultists want to control your lives.

@libsoftiktok This has nothing to do with climate change. It never did.

@svika25 @KimGeorgeton File a tip @USCIS @usdol

@KimGeorgeton I work for DOT, they hire Indians and muslim engineers with visas instead of hiring American citizens. They also give promotions to Indians or Muslims with visas over American citizens. Students that graduatited with BS in Civil Engineering have no chances of getting a job.

Let’s talk H1B. In March 2024, I got a call. My job was gone. So was everyone else's. Infosys didn't replace one or two of us. They replaced the whole department. Every. Single. One. Their guy chose to keep his friends employed over American workers. This isn't a story. It's a playbook. Here's what they don't tell you about H-1B abuse in Ohio: → Ohioans have lost ~$300M per H-1B worker cycle → Wages drop tens of thousands per replaced job → That money doesn't pay Ohio rent. Doesn't hit Ohio restaurants. Doesn't pay Ohio taxes. It leaves. Infosys paid $34M settling federal fraud charges for exactly this. Now Vivek Ramaswamy wants to be Ohio's governor. The same man whose company used H-1B visas 29 times. The same man who told Americans we "venerate mediocrity over excellence." He got fired from DOGE partly for saying that. He says he wants to reform H-1B now. His record says otherwise. I'm running for Lt. governor because I know what it feels like. To be told your job, your team, your livelihood just doesn't matter. Ohio workers matter. Ohio paychecks should stay in Ohio. We will solve this. Share this. 🗳️ Vote @CaseyPutsch — May 5 📋 Register by April 6

@RogerTodger4 I will never retire. Nothing gets me out of bed like knowing I have work to do.

I have expertise in databases, primarily Oracle and Snowflake, but can support a large number. I continue to earn certifications. I am almost 58 and just want to work til 65. I'd be happy to train out of school young people to get their careers started. There are plenty of folks like me ready to train the next generation.

DNR the Visa Renewal Path America trains registered nurses in under three years, preparing them to save lives on day one. If our healthcare system can train lifesavers that quickly, then Amazon can train an American for a tech job in the same time. Every H-1B renewal proves the job was never temporary. It’s a choice to bypass American workers, not a necessity. Do not resuscitate the visa renewal path. Hire and train Americans.

@RobProvince @JBlunt1018 @USAA shouldn't be able to be listed as an American company any longer. They should have all privileges removed.

@JBlunt1018 Just cancelled all my USAA polices and credit card because they fired all their US employees and replaced them with foreign labor.

HUGE NEWS and honestly, this is long overdue. For the first time in a while, it feels like the left is actually stepping up to push back against the H-1B misinformation and the growing anti-Indian rhetoric online and in real life. Hasan Minhaj just dropped an excellent breakdown on the whole H-1B / “Indian narrative” and it hits on a lot of the misinformation that’s been floating around unchecked. I’m attaching a clip below + the full YouTube link. This matters. For too long, protectionist narratives have dominated the conversation often driven by fear, bad data, or outright misinformation. And it’s had real consequences. It’s time to: — push back on the rhetoric — correct the misunderstandings — stop letting one side control the entire narrative Good to finally see someone with a platform call it out.

@Brummbar14 Not everyone is built like that.

@ChiefEngineerCE Genuinely speaking, what is the incentive at that point to not go an Luigi the CEO as that woman’s husband? Children I could see why not, but otherwise?

Absolutely true story- My boss the CEO made the HR director come in when her heart surgery had to be canceled due to the anesthesiologist not showing up. She died in front of me. Slid off her chair and start convulsing. Dead. Her husband got an attorney that said .. sorry dead people can't sue. Shitty morning that was. I left that job- psychopath. Within hours he sent out an email telling us not to worry - he would have her position promptly filled.

He is semi- well known, has even been in movies- in his mind she would have died either way but in my mind - bed rest until the next scheduled surgery. She was an attorney too. As CTO - I had certain obligations to fulfill to leave. My current employer and CEO boss would never do that.

@ChiefEngineerCE You’d think that a sociopath who’s smart enough to attain a management position in any industry at all would also do a little better job hiding it. I’d be tempted to exterminate that insect just to make the world a little more pleasant. Sheesh.

Politicians keep either looking negligent or even incompetent or ignorant But it's all by design. It's not negligence.

HALL OF SHAME: THE U.S. CONGRESS America didn’t lose its jobs. They were sold. Other countries protect their labor markets. Our lawmakers auctioned ours to the highest bidder. For decades, Congress: • Passed trade deals that rewarded offshoring • Expanded foreign labor programs without enforcement • Ignored wage suppression data year after year • Took lobbying money from outsourcing and visa-dependent corporations • Looked the other way while American workers were replaced This wasn’t negligence. It was a transaction. Productivity rose to the highest of any country. Wages flatlined. Communities hollowed out. The people elected to protect American workers did the opposite. They protected profits, donors, and global supply chains instead. They are the subservient lapdogs of the Chamber of Commerce and their ex-politician lobbyists. An organization that has done more harm to Americans and the American worker than some groups on the terrorist watch list. That is why one income no longer supports a family. That is why jobs vanished while executive pay exploded. That is why the American Dream became unaffordable. Other nations defend their citizens. Ours sold them. HALL OF SHAME.

@CB79209807 @alexmwangi0 @CompositeGuy_ Tenacity. Number one trait.

@alexmwangi0 @ChiefEngineerCE @CompositeGuy_ I will say that I've come to believe that intelligence might be overrated, though. I'd rather be exceptionally courageous than exceptionally intelligent, and I think a virtue like courage serves a person better than almost any other trait.

An African YouTube channel conducted an independent IQ test in Lagos, Nigeria. The average was 73.4, and the median was 69.7.

@checkingoutie That was the statement.

@ChiefEngineerCE she died because her heart surgery was cancelled fyi

@CrayCrayBlocker I hired a guy that was getting a knee replacement would be out 6-8 weeks. From the start. Loyal and still working there.

@ChiefEngineerCE Dang....one of my office gals was diagnosed with breast cancer. I continued to pay her salary and medical, and kept her position open until she could return to work 8 months later. I told her she wasn't getting a raise that year, though...

@MuffMuffington I am not going to ask for pity but the higher you go in a company the less FMLA, FLSA really applies to us.

@ChiefEngineerCE Shouldn't she have been out on a FMLA? Sad.

@Activist4Sanity I was an officer of the company. Can't do that. Felt compelled to say something though.

@ChiefEngineerCE Wow! Thats horrible! PLEASE name and shame the company!

@DecodingFoxNews @kapi1an_n3m0 Married women lean Republican. Not buying it.

Katie Britt took her husband’s last name. She would need extra documentation to vote since her birth certificate wouldn’t say “Katie Britt” on it.
