Sarah Longwell and Jonathan V. Last: We Are Sticking With the Mission

I don't see any federal forces on the streets of North Carolina down by the Tyson's plant. Why not?

We should see more of that, right? Are you going to annex Greenland? Great. Let's see it. Let's see you do it. Oh, you don't have the stones to do it. Everybody said, oh, we don't want the autocracy. We just want the policies. And we won't get those policies. We'll only get the autocracy. That's one of my concerns. Sorry.

But I, I guess I'm saying we shouldn't be preemptively mad.

Yeah, well, I mean, these are STEM engineer PhD types whose jobs are being taken by the H-1B visas, I assume. So these are, you know, these are real top level, you know, A++ developer types who would have a great paying job at Oracle or whatnot if it weren't for some Indian guy on an H-1B visa taking their job.
