God Bless You @IngrahamAnglefor Holding Pres. Trump's Feet to the Fire on His Immigration Promises!
Laura expresses the concerns of many America First Conservatives at the WH's plan to import more foreign "high-tech" workers to compete w/ Americans.
"You ran on America First."

I used to like her show and she was wonderful before she became an anchor. Now she has become unwatchable.
She interrupts almost as much, and with the same timing, as Sean Hannity and I had to turn it off.
Oh well ... I tried and I did get something out of it.
She taught me that, if Im ever going to get married, I need to work on my patience and tolerance some more.
Thanks, Laura!
For the most part I would agree with your assessment on millennials . I know of a few good ones but many are obnoxious.
I’ve also met several that have impressed me, not going to lie about that.
But overall, my opinion of them is low.
Yes she was very aggressive!
Knowing President kindly allowed Laura this interview after the horrendous stress he has been under with Iran......
...and she treated him horribly!!!!!
Your last interview with him, Laura!
As much as I detest unions, it might be time for the scientific, engineering and IT professionals to unionize.
In a union, they can better represent their own interests, as the politicians are all on the side of low wages and bought-and-paid-for by big tech and the Chamber of Commerce.
No.
People like Ingraham and Coulter hold the president accountable to the issues he campaigned on on the people who believe President Trump can do no wrong and is above criticism here get butthurt over it.
Worth repeating, often and loudly. Medical profession; I think you're next on the wage chopping block.
Hurray for Laura!!!
There are sections of the interview where Ingraham was talking at the same time that PDJT was, Hannity likewise known for interrupting guests. So Im not sure exactly what PDJT said in response to some of her questions.
Do we have the people?
Only millenials may be hired for new jobs?
There are millions of under- or unemployed STEM-educated workers in this country. We may have a pipeline problem, but there is no current shortage of STEM-educated American workers.
Surely no, but I’d estimate that anyone under 40 is a risk, and anyone under thirty is even riskier.
According to what I understood with Trump last night, numbers of large companies moving here, and they will need to hire full work forces.
Do we have the ability to provide them that? I dunno. I’d be surprised if we did, but I’m open to it.
And, to anyone who may be interested, I’m not at all interested in a bunch of foreign workers coming here. I’d much rather it be Americans. I’m just not sure that’s possible currently, but hey, maybe I’m wrong.
I could support a work visa system that really does what the current system claims to do - put American workers first, and not undercut their wages - but the current system was actually built to do the opposite: https://cis.org/Miano/Primer-Reporters-Looking-H1B-Program
True. The physical jobs, such as the trades you mentioned, as well as healthcare workers, auto mechanics, and retail and restaurant workers, are here to stay.
But, meanwhile, more and more office jobs are filled by foreign workers or outsourced overseas. And they're handling sensitive information. It's not just the IT workers. People in India and the Philippines, for example, are handling Americans' mortgage payments and credit card applications.
You are wrong. Americans will fill seats as STEM majors once the h-1B shenanigans stop FOR GOOD.
Average Welder Hourly Pay: $17.98
Average Electrician Hourly Pay: $21.87
Data from payscale.com
These are not princely wages.
Union workers tend to be the only ones that can protect their jobs from foreigners - as long as there are projects that require union workers.
While unions are problematic and corrupt, since our government is as well people should form them to prevent imported scabs from taking their jobs.
Trump did visit Orlando during his 2016 election run, promising to get H1B under control.
He needs to hear the criticism. Clearly. Laura did the right thing.
An awful lot of complaining on this thread about how Laura handled the interview.
I watched it and Trump tried to change the subject away from H1B when she asked it. He clearly didn’t have a good answer.
I was pleased she continued to ask him on it, and while he never gave a satisfactory answer I think she’s the only one to press him on a vital issue that I think will have a great affect on our future.
GO LAURA!
