Absolutely grandstanding. I am in IT and the majority of visa holders are from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. the latter two are countries I wish were on his list!

No one cried when Americans lost their jobs to the H1B crowd except the families who lost their jobs, homes, cars and wealth. This is a great day for justice and music to my ears. Sadly many will wail against this as they fall for the propaganda. Go Trump Go!

The great talent that build Google was American males and females. Once the engine was built google out soured for cheap mediocre programmers. I know this for a fact since I was around on day 1 when not yet Google visited me a NASA and "borrowed" all my work (research) on natural language processing. Which can be summed up simply as if two document discuss the same subject they probably use at lot of the same words. Judging by google search results I'd say that have not added much to the field in the last 30 years or so. Now imagine searching is an entirely different field and googles' tech there is impressive.

Material detriment my butt.

Google is supposed to be at the forefront of the digital information age. Physical distance between these so-called ‘talents’ shouldn’t make a damn bit of difference.

Telecommuting, tele-networking, teleconferencing are substitutes that shouldn’t bother Google much at all.

A big assed smokescreen bleat.

A MAJOR problem with Microsoft has been its use of foreigners. Its software is bizarre and does not work well, and its customer service does nothing more than google for answers and read them to customers. Their advice, which many customers are required to pay to use, is useless and does not work. Ask a Microsoft customer service rep if they have actually tried the google found search result and they cannot say they have.

For some reason, Indians think invading personal privacy is a good thing. They do not have an American sense of right to privacy, and that shows at all levels with Microsoft.

"The order also calls for Homeland Security and State Department officials, along with the director of national intelligence, to review what information the government needs to fully vet would-be visitors and come up with a list of countries that don't provide it.

The order says the government will give countries 60 days to start providing the information or citizens from those countries will be barred from traveling to the United States."--FoxNews

Maybe Google could offer software development scholarships to trade schools, community colleges, and inner city colleges to develop homegrown workers.

Best answer yet.

I agree that India should be on the list. We are flooded with low wages and the majority are sub par, not brilliant and irreplaceable. Most are not committed to the end result. Why should they be? They didnt come here to be an American, they cane here for the money.

Can't speak of any of the other countries from personal experience but I do know something about Somalia.A couple of years ago we went to Kenya on "safari" and spent a couple of days under the "spell" of a guide named James.I say spell because he was a great guide and a great guy.He,of course, was a native Kenyan who was very much "engaged" in the everyday life of...and the politics of...his native land.

Long story short....he told us stories of the filthy,destructive acts of invaders (my word) from Somalia (which shares a border with Kenya) that would make your blood boil.

And I don't know if it matters or not but James was Christian (he told us).

Indian moslems should absolutely be on the list.Indian Hindus? I'm not so sure.Yes,an argument can be made for excluding them because they take jobs from Americans but otherwise I'd say no.

Another liberal organization spewing the same Leftist crap like all liberals do.

Trump is bringing the liberal wackos out of the woodwork. Another plus as a result of his election.

Winning is becoming a daily exercise. Trump keeps it up and we'll all be in shape from the workouts. :-)

O noes... the tax dodgers will need to hire citizens *gasp* and pay employer taxes for each citizen. Honest question, is there a monetary incentive for hiring the rapfugees? Aside from not paying citizen employer taxes. I am wondering if there is a tax break (aka working class pays for corporate welfare) or another monetary incentive to hire rapefugees hidden in so ex order to fast track them in?

“Is that different from regular Arctic pack ice?”
It’s regional, polar bear pack ice only occurs in the northern hemisphere while penguin pack ice only occurs in the southern hemisphere. Regular pack ice occurs in both.

Great talent is bomb making and head chopping.

Google should have stayed out of politics.

I have a feeling Disney is going to be in the spotlight soon as well.

Oh but you’re mistaken! Wasn’t there a recent movie about black wymyn as the brain power behind NASA and therefore the reason for all of NASA’s accomplishments heretofore? /s

Likely they are not US citizens but a way to import more invaders. They need to be vetted very closely. Don’t take Google’s word they were hired years ago instead of yesterday.
