Michael Lind for the Telegraph on whether Susie Wiles worries that
David McIntosh's Club for Growth will ungag Ron DeSantis to use
Lachlan Murdoch campaign bullhorn to warn legacy American proles that
Donald Trump will betray them with comprehensive immigration reform
legislation passed by the likes of Mike Johnson and Mitch McConnell

| However, as Daniel Costa and Ron Hira demonstrated in a 2020 study,
| the Department of Labour sets the two lowest wage levels for H-1Bs
| well below the local median wage. In 2019, three-fifths of all H-1B
| workers were assigned to these two lowest prevailing wage levels -
| three-fifths in the case of IBM, three-quarters in the cases of
| Amazon and Microsoft, and half in the case of H-1Bs hired by Google,
| Uber, and Walmart. Costa and Hira concluded that these companies are
| using "a flawed H-1B prevailing wage rule to underpay their workers
| relative to market wage standards, resulting in major savings in
| labour costs for companies that use the H-1B."

Does Trump regret dispatching Jared and Ivanka Kushner to Silicon
Valley to sue for peace with the likes of Mark Zuckerberg?
