    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Fri Mar 15 11:01:15 2024
    Michael Bloomberg's guest bloggers, Enda Curran and Augusta Saraiva
    on whether Casey DeSantis regrets that her path to WhiteHouse.GOV was
    dashed by Ron's failure to secure funding from the likes of Miriam
    Adelson, Robert Bigelow, Walter Buckley, Betsy DeVos, Ken Griffin,
    Julia Koch, Bernie Marcus, Lachlan Murdoch, Thomas Peterffy, Bruce
    Rauner, Chris Reyes, David Sacks and Steve Wynn to buy advertisements
    on Murdoch's FoxNews.COM with the likes of Mike Emmons warning legacy
    American proles that Donald Trump will sign bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform legislation passed by the likes of Mike Johnson and
    Mitch McConnell so long as the Cheap Labor Lobby includes the magic

    | It isn't that lawmakers have completely stopped trying to help.
    | Since last year they've introduced more than 360 bills related to
    | immigration, according to the website GovTrack.us. The long list
    | includes a bipartisan proposal to extend the number of temporary
    | work authorizations and multiple bills aimed at shortening visa
    | backlogs, not to mention the hard-fought border security bill that
    | died in the Senate last month. "It's really a shame that politics
    | gets in the way of something that everybody agrees is a problem,"
    | says Edwin Egee, vice president for government relations and
    | workforce development at the National Retail Federation.

    Did DeSantis ask Murdoch for the right to run ads with Trump's
    interview with Laura Ingraham? <URL:https://www.foxnews.com/transcript/president-trump-talks-trade-with-china-immigration-policy-and-the-us-economy>

    "In contrast to Trump, DeSantis suspended a Soros-backed prosecutor
    and *named* Soros to the public as an enemy. He didn't just yelp
    about Soros for fundraising--he physically removed one of Soros'
    minions from power. https://t.co/29ncdDfNri" - Pedro Gonzalez <URL:https://twitter.com/emeriticus/status/1626810884763840514>
