    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/economy/2022/11/18/facebook-beats-anti-american-discrimination-lawsuit/>
    | "I'm amazed that wouldn't simply be presumed" in any reading of the
    | ASS 1981 law, responded Ken Cuccinelli, a lawyer and a former top
    | official in former President Donald Trump's Homeland Security
    | agency.
    |
    | Corporations do discriminate against Americans when hiring cheap and
    | legally powerless visa workers, he told Breitbart News, adding:
    |
    || It would seem to me presumptive by the use of the word "citizen"
    || in the statute that citizenship is an underlying assumption. ...
    || That would automatically mean that citizens qua citizens, as
    || citizens, do [get protection]. It is nearly unimaginable otherwise
    |
    | The relevant42 U.S.C. ASS 1981 lawin the new lawsuit says:
    |
    || (a)Statement of equal rights
    || All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall
    || have the same right in every State and Territory tomake and enforce
    || contracts, to sue, be parties, give evidence, and to the full and
    || equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of
    || persons and property as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be
    || subject to like punishment, pains, penalties, taxes, licenses, and
    || exactions of every kind, and to no other.

    | Meta did not respond to questions from Breitbart News.

    Would Ken Griffin allow Ron DeSantis' legislative affairs team to
    strong-arm Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell to add legacy American
    proles as a protected class in our civil rights laws?
