Kill the H-1b and L1 visas with extreme prejudice.

Yep, and to do that we need to dial back the visas and simultaneously crank up our own higher education system. Kill the DEI and woke crap instantly and re-create a meritocracy without regard for race, gender, etc. We have to face the facts including how we’ve put American kids at such a disadvantage that this situation has developed. The good news is, we can fix it in very short order, because the federal government has tremendous control over university funding and grant resources.

Stupid move on his part.

This is Musk's achilles heel where MAGA is concerned.

Getting our higher education system back has to reach down to elementary schools.

Our once excellent public school system is now touting 10% reading and 12% math proficiency.

Certainly, Elon Musk is an immigrant to the U.S. and his corporations need immigrants.

Certainly, he recognizes that there's some nativists in the MAGA Movement and he's under no obligation to accommodate them on X. After all he owns X.

Praying ELON will get the MAGA/America 1st movement once POTUS 47 puts the hammer down.

Some posters on Twitter used its own internal AI system Grok to fact check that last post from Musk, where he claims the reason he is here is from H1B, and per Grok the statement is false. Apparently he arrived under the F-1 program for students, not workers.

Musk became an illegal alien during that time and illegally transitioned to an H1B.

Then Musk needs to get kicked to the curb.

No more H1-B or L-1 visas. None. Nope. Nada.
