Summary
Steve Bannon, former Trump strategist, sharply criticized Elon Musk over his support for H-1B visas, accusing him of undermining American workers.
On his “War Room” podcast, Bannon warned Musk to adopt MAGA’s “America First” stance or face backlash, calling for a complete immigration moratorium.
Musk, a proponent of skilled foreign labor, has defended H-1B visas for filling tech jobs, citing a lack of qualified Americans, sparking controversy.
Trump’s unexpected support for H-1B workers has further divided MAGA supporters, escalating tensions between Trump allies and Musk.
Between Musk’s “I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend,” and Bannon’s “we’ll rip your face off”, it’s like watching teenagers with too much testosterone duke it out on the playground. The discourse shows the level of maturity circling around Trump…
I’ve been equating Trump supporters to teenagers crying about having to do chores and thinking they’d manage the house better than their parents if they were only given a chance!
TBF they never matured emotionally beyond teenagers
Why don’t they just fuck and get it over with?
Because humanity is suffering enough.
What happens in Mar a Lago unfortunately does not stay in Mar a Lago…
Well they’ve had problems retrieving some of those boxes of confidential information, though it’s likely that the contents of said information could have been long gone.
When is the literal slap fight between these two manliest of manly macho alpha males?
I wish this asshole would get pushed to define what he means by “lack of qualified Americans” because I’m like 99.9% sure he just means “they’re too expensive.”
Qualifications:
- College educated
- Unable to refuse orders
- Willing to work for peanuts
Joke aside, it’s also about control. American citizens can tell Elmo to fuck off when asked to do something illegal or unsafe. Sponsored workers are incentivized to avoid doing that, as their eligibility to stay in the country is dependent on their employment.
They can’t find people with 15 years experience on this software that’s only been around for 6. Time to hire a foreigner for chump change.
Bingo. Also, they often narrow it down to wanting people with 20 years experience, but still in their 20s. So, yeah, “we had to hire cheap compliant foreigners, regrettably, because no Americans want to work any more…”
I really hope we get four years of soap opera drama and not four years of old History Channel WW2 documentaries
The modern fascist doesn’t present themself as a strong military leader anymore, instead presenting themself as an entertainer for the people. I believe this image is what makes it difficult to get the masses fully under your control, and granting you unchallenged authority.
To Trump fascism has been a means of filling his coffers and dodging criminal prosecution for his many crimes. That kind of changes now, though, as he will have more or less achieved those ends entirely. His twilight years are coming to a close. He doesn’t have an infinite stretch of time in front of him. The MAGA movement wants blood. They want to start on the home front, with mass deportation of Latin Americans and widespread institutional violence against queer people. But fascism as political movement does not and can not end there. By necessity, it will escalate into small territorial gains and proxy wars before devolving into conquering military campaigns and eventually collapse under its own weight. He’s already preparing for this. This is legitimately already happening. He’s already starting to create ideological justification for the forced annexation of several nearby nations.
Fascist countries have a life cycle. It’s pretty hard for Fascist nations to justify their own existence without constant conflict. There always has to be another enemy. Fascist thought is dominated by ultra nationalism, patriotic purity tests, and racialism. The more dogmatic the fascist becomes, the more they come to see the world itself as the inheritance of their race and nationality. Unless Trump intends to abandon fascists at some point (something I think is pretty unlikely), then he will have to justify the continued existence of the fascist movement. His followers will be angry, and he has to keep them that way.
Finally. The Celebrity Death Match I’ve been waiting for.

It’s okay, I’m 99% sure Musk’s species sheds its skin on a regular schedule to begin with, that being the lizardpeople way.
