🚨Governor DeSantis says the Feds should focus on BROWARD COUNTY, and Palm Beach and Dade for Medicaid Fraud! “If they really want to go whole hog and do it, particularly in those southeast Florida's three counties, Dade Broward and Palm Beach, I think there's going to be a target rich environment, and if they're committed to it, we'll be supportive 100%, and let's bring more people to justice. I'm all for it.”

Thomas Sowell: ”If you’re going to have reparations for slavery, it’s going to be the greatest transfer of wealth back and forth, because the number of Whites who were enslaved in North Africa by the Barbary Pirates exceeded the number of Africans enslaved in the United States.”

Generational Reality Check: Same Betrayal, Different Names - Scandals Taxpayers Hated But Paid For Anyway Every generation has watched the government do things the majority of taxpayers specifically said "no" to - then made us pay for it anyway. The details change, the speed changes, but the pattern never does. Silent & Greatest Generation (slow news via radio/newspapers) Teapot Dome Scandal (1920s): Oil reserves secretly leased to private companies for bribes and favors. Taxpayers got cheated out of public resources. Public outrage took months. A few resignations, some jail time, but the oil kept flowing to insiders. Taxpayers still paid the cleanup. Truman Administration (early 1950s)1951 Taxpayer-Funded Associations Scandal: The Truman administration was caught funneling millions in taxpayer dollars to private associations, labor unions, and political groups under the guise of "public welfare" programs. Investigations showed the money was used for political organizing, lobbying, and sometimes kickbacks - exactly what many voters opposed. The story broke in newspapers and congressional hearings. Taxpayers were furious at the misuse of their money for partisan gain. Outcome? Hearings, some firings, but the funds had already been spent. The system rolled on. Boomers (nightly TV news) Gulf of Tonkin Incident (1964): The Johnson administration exaggerated and misrepresented attacks on U.S. ships to push through the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. This gave the president broad power to escalate the Vietnam War - a war many Americans came to oppose. Taxpayers ended up paying for decades of conflict that cost over 58,000 American lives and hundreds of billions of dollars. Later documents showed the second "attack" likely never happened. Outcome? Massive betrayal of public trust and money, but the system rolled on. Gen X (cable news + early internet) Iran-Contra Affair (1980s): Reagan admin secretly sold arms to Iran (despite an embargo) to fund Nicaraguan rebels Congress had banned funding for. Heard it on CNN while checking early forums. Outrage, hearings, convictions (later pardoned). Outcome? Taxpayers paid for the arms, the cover-up, and the cleanup. Nothing changed. Millennials (24/7 cable + social media) Fast & Furious (2011): ATF let thousands of guns walk across the border to Mexican cartels to track them - most were lost. Guns ended up in crimes, including the murder of a Border Patrol agent. Viral outrage on Facebook/Twitter. Congressional hearings. Outcome? Taxpayers paid for the guns, the investigation, and the lawsuits. No one really held accountable. Gen Z (TikTok + instant feeds) Recent examples everyone should know by story: SAVE Act: Bill requiring proof of citizenship to vote - passed the House because voters demanded election security. Senate stalled it. Taxpayers pay for the unsecured system they said no to. Minnesota Somali daycare scandal: Tens of Billions in taxpayer-funded child-care subsidies allegedly fraudulently claimed by a network of Somali-run daycares. State paid out, audits found massive abuse. Taxpayers footed the bill. Florida sheriffs resisting deportations: Some sheriffs publicly say they won't fully cooperate with federal immigration enforcement even when voters elected leaders promising it. Openly support amnesty or as-is under the table for cash. Taxpayers pay salaries and jail costs for the policies they opposed. The pattern crosses parties and decades. The extractors keep extracting. The taxpayers keep paying. This is nothing new. Just faster. "Thomas Jefferson said it plainly in 1785: forcing taxpayers to fund ideas they abhor is sinful and tyrannical. 250 years later, nothing has changed. We're still subsidizing the very things we despise. Reply with the scandal from your lifetime that still makes you angry. Bookmark or quote if it's your war too. Follow for more generational reality checks.

The Cognizant case was really insidious. The company discriminated against 2000 non-Indian employees. Cognizant also blocked potential American job candidates from even applying. It is literally an invading foreign ideology (upper caste Indian mentality) infecting major American companies.

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.

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.

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.

@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.

Kim Georgeton for Lt. Governor of Ohio
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

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.

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.

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.
