Summary

Steve Bannon, former Trump strategist, sharply criticized Elon Musk over his support for H-1B visas, accusing him of undermining American workers.

On his “War Room” podcast, Bannon warned Musk to adopt MAGA’s “America First” stance or face backlash, calling for a complete immigration moratorium.

Musk, a proponent of skilled foreign labor, has defended H-1B visas for filling tech jobs, citing a lack of qualified Americans, sparking controversy.

Trump’s unexpected support for H-1B workers has further divided MAGA supporters, escalating tensions between Trump allies and Musk.

    Yes. I don’t know who Bannon is referring to specifically but there’s various billionaires behind him. He was living on a Chinese billionaires superyacht last year before his prison sentence.

      It’s almost like some of these people - donvict, Elon, Bannon, Thiel - are trying to pattern their lives after cartoon supervillians, isn’t it?

      I also wonder when magabrainz watch things like Back to the Future or Caddyshack - who are they rooting for when they watch those movies?
