    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jan 5 12:36:45 2023
    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 Zuck: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2022/12/15/gop-unites-with-liberals-to-defeat-investors-eagle-act-outsourcing-bill/>
    | The 2013 founders included Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg,
    | Microsoft founder Bill Gates, John Doerr at Kleiner Perkins, Matt
    | Cohler at Benchmark, and Reid Hoffman, a partner at the Greylock
    | Partners investment firm who also sits on Microsoft's board.
    |
    | The investors' defeat is a big turnaround from 2019 when business
    | groups used their lobbying to pass a similar bill that got just 65
    | "nay" votes.
    |
    | A matching bill by Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) was blocked by several
    | Senators once GOP staffers learned more about the economic impact of
    | the matching H.R.1044 and S.386 bills.
    |
    | In 2018, Breitbart News covered a similar push by Rep. Kevin Yoder
    | (R-KS). He lost his seat in 2018 to Democrat Sharice Davids, who
    | still holds the seat.

    Does Kellyanne Conway fear that Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch will
    allow Ron DeSantis to outflank Trump from the right by calling for
    an immigration moratorium?

    "If Trump and DeSantis both run in 2024, all the slimy,
    "intellectual" Bill Buckley-wannabes at Yale and Harvard who
    circlejerk about lowering corporate taxes will fervently support
    DeSantis. That tells you everything you need to know." - Daniel
