Elon Musk's cost-cutting plans may have left hundreds of Twitter employees on high-skill work visas on a countdown to deportation.

At least 250 Twitter workers appear to be employed on a H-1B visa, according to official records and now face an uncertain future.

And according to analysis of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) data by the National Foundation for American Policy, that number could be as high as 670, or 8% of the company pre-cuts, Forbes reported.

They can go work for facefook.

[Bulwyf]

Punt em.

[Nathan _in_Arkansas]

Thaaaaaat’s a shame.

There’s other employment opportunities.

[bwest]

A side benefit.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Awwww well aint that a bloody shame

[Kaiser8408a]

Best news I’ve heard all day. Until Democrat labor attorneys block the firings.

[ComputerGuy]

They should be the first ones to go, maybe.

[No name given]

I’m so fed up with sob stories of immigrants.

[WMarshal]

My eyes are dry. The grifting Hindu Brahmins can go back to their shithole.

[GOPJ]

Cry me a river...

[Billthedrill]

Things are tough all over, kid. I hear they’re hiring in North Korea.

[Still Thinking]

They were hired illegally in the first place. You’re only supposed to hire H-1Bs if you can find an American to fill the role. There’s millions of Americans who’ll lie to support Democrat tyranny.

[knarf]

Well . . . . bye.

[Leep]

They can take the knowledge they have learned back their homeland.

God speed and good luck.

[G Larry]

Breaks your heart, don’t it?

[escapefromboston]

I fear they won’t be

[FLT-bird]

Sounds like a plan to me. Fire ‘em and ship ‘em back to where they came from.

[I want the USA back]

Bye bye. Hope you had a good time. Be sure to send a postcard when you get there, you hear!

[TigerClaws]

They can just go make their own platform.

They already know how to code!
