Republican John Thune Asks Biden for More Foreign Workers to Fill U.S. Jobs as Millions of Americans Jobless
Breitbart ^ | July 6 2022 | JOHN BINDER

Posted on 07/07/2022 9:47:35 PM PDT by rintintin

Senate Minority Whip John Thune (R-SD) is joining Democrats, as well as the big business lobby, in asking President Joe Biden for more legal immigration to the United States to fill American jobs.

Even as the nation’s foreign-born population has hit record highs, Thune says the Biden administration is not importing enough H-2B foreign visa workers to fill blue-collar seasonal jobs in the U.S.

I didn’t know Thune did anything other than kiss McConnell’s ring.

Yet, the Low Information Voters, as Rush called them, who think themselves American Patriots who reliably vote Republican will vote this ass clown into office once again when he runs again.
Clueless as to his record. Thinking of themselves as Patriots because they voted for a Republican.
This is in a nutshell why we are in the precarious position we are in as a country. Too many voters are simply clueless.

Aldi grocery store in my town can’t find workers at $16/hr to start. I have never before seen so many help wanted signs everywhere. News says there are 11 million jobs open and only 5.5 million unemployed.

Why do you think there are 5.5 million unemployed when there are so many jobs open?

I despise most of these Senate ‘Republicans’ even more than I do the Democrats.

At least the Democrats don’t pretend to care about their constituents and their states even during campaign season. They are pretty honest about hating us regular people.

WTH is the matter with SD? First they gave us George McGovern. Then they gave us Tom D’asshole. Then they gave us this Thune jerkoff.

Yeah! Let’s vote all RINOs out of office. I don’t care if a Democrat replaces them. Since only about 15 GOP senators are real conservatives, let senate be 85 Democrat, 15 repub.

Overall, it pays better to stay home. Your only expenses, when you stay home is rent and food.

I’d agree to a 40-to-1 ratio: For every 40 illegals expelled, we could add 1 skilled, legal, immigrant worker.

“Yeah! Let’s vote all RINOs out of office. I don’t care if a Democrat replaces them. Since only about 15 GOP senators are real conservatives, let senate be 85 Democrat, 15 repub.”

This attitude is EXACTLY why we are where we are. We vote for Leftists who Label themselves “Republicans” only to find out after the fact they are Dems in Disguise.
Not one damned thing will ever change with people like you. We will simply be on a slower descent to hell.
This ass clown and YOU are the reason we voted for Donald Trump. And, we will do so AGAIN.
As Einstein stated, the definition of Insanity is doing the same thing. Again and again. Expecting a different result.

$16 is the equivalent of less than $13 a year ago and just over $10 two years ago.

Tell them to hire the U.S. kids out of college. These corrupt politicians just want to get tech workers for their campaign donor companies at $35,000 a year instead of $75,000.

They are $#$%#$ %*U%*!!! Traitors all!

I hope I can find something new because I’ll probably be looking very soon. In fact already started.

I hope they can find a different area for me where I’m at currently but I figure I better have backup plans.

Still I started my SS early just for backup. That’s my plan B and it’s already helping.

“Senate Minority Whip John Thune (R-SD) is joining Democrats...”

Two weeks ago, it was 14 Republican senators siding with the Democrats to undermine the 2nd Amendment.

Now the Republicans are joining the Democrats to undermine the American worker.

What’s next? Amnesty?

The Democrats want a universal basic wage of about $45K for everyone -working or not. They are using stimulus and covid emergency funding to pay people not to work. They know that if they can keep the ball rolling for several years, they will have manufactured a permanent constituency of Democrat dependent voters who want to keep getting paid to stay home. Their plan is working
