    Britt Purdy for the San Francisco Chronicle on how many scab workers
    are re-exported via Donald Trump's NAFTA 2.0 TN visa: <URL:https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/tech-layoffs-employee-loses-sponsorship-17799407.php>
    | According to the Wall Street Journal, since last year, more than
    | 250,000 people have been laid off in the tech industry by companies
    | like Google, Microsoft, Amazon and Facebook. It's estimated that
    | tens of thousands of workers on temporary visas were part of that
    | number. L-1 visa workers -- who are transferred internationally by
    | an employer, like I was -- cannot port their visa to a new employer
    | like those under an H-1B can. If you have a spouse under an L-1
    | status, it also means they lose their authorization to work in the
    | U.S.

    Does Susie Wiles fear Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch will allow Ron
    DeSantis to outflank Trump on the National Question by inviting the
    likes of Mike Emmons onto their campaign stage to talk with legacy
    American proles about being RIF'd by the Cheap Labor Lobby in favor
    of scab workers?
