According to Daily Beast, pretty recently, on his podcast, Steve Bannon ended up criticizing the H-1B program while labeling it as a ‘scam’ of the highest order and then targeting billionaire Elon Musk for his support of it. He also claimed that the program allows tech companies to import cheap labor while undermining the talented US workers.
The recent comments of Steve Bannon followed a failed attempt by US President- elect Donald Trump- backed Republicans to replace the H-1B visa program which has become a contentious issue within the MAGA faction, asserted Daily Beast. Additionally, he also stated that all current H-1B visa holders should be expelled as part of the broader deportation plans of Donald Trump while arguing that US workers should eventually fill those positions instead.
The call for reparations is actually a pretty new twist in the immigration debate while traditionally focused on descendants of enslaved individuals. Steve Bannon and his guests discussed the influence of Tesla CEO Elon Musk and also questioned that whether he genuinely supports the MAGA agenda or has ulterior motives, noted Daily Beast.
This internal conflict actually highlights the major rift between traditional Republican values and the interests of wealthy tech figures like Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
