    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see Neil Munro
    on whether Donald Trump regrets dispatching Jared and Ivanka Kushner
    to Silicon Valley to sue for peace with the likes of Mark Zuckerberg: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/immigration/2022/12/09/eagle-act-tech-investors-vs-everybody-else/>
    | The tech companies' public intervention is unusual because the
    | investors prefer to do much of their public advocacy behind a screen
    | of lobby groups, astroturf fronts, and plaintive pleas from camera-
    | ready advocates.
    |
    | For example, the very visible Immigration Voice group presents
    | Indian visa workers as the primary beneficiaries of the giveaway
    | act. But the group's "advisory board" consists of a long-standing
    | lobbyist for the tech industry and Neil Patel, the owner of the
    | DailyCaller.com and a former staffer for Vice President Dick Cheney,

    Will Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell deliver loosened spigots to
    the Cheap Labor Lobby's scab worker import pipelines to mitigate
    Joe Biden's stagflation?
