1/10 Time for some fun facts in this series.
A college kid (hid his twitter id) doing a Ph.D. pinned a tweet that you see below. So he talks about encouraging merit-based immigration and complains that people in the backlogged community are fakers..#YESS386
2/10 ..But even if he had spent a few mins of his trolling time in googling, he would have quickly unpinned his tweet. 😂
I always put forth any of my facts with real data points unlike throwing random racial stones at the affected 😡.

Is it even a surprise that Indians tops merit-based immigration wherever the system actually exists?
I actually like the system. If we have one like that in the US none of us would be fighting for EQUALITY and FAIRNESS.

Coming to the point, To any prospective future employers out there, please don't take that kids' tweet seriously. He is still in school and might be thinking EQUALITY and FAIRNESS might delay his chance of easy green card.

But now I want to know seriously, Is it that easy to get a Ph.D. admission? or you really get dumb after you get to school? To anyone trying hard to prove Indians are fakers, fraudsters etc.. just look around the world, it will teach you a lesson.#EqualityCantWait #YESS386

You guys: Roger Stone thinks I suck.

😢

Even worse, he's not threatening to sue me this time.
Here's the post that made Roger Stone so cross.

Also, if Roger Stone calls me a #See You Next Tuesday can I call him a rat-fucker on TV?

Many people think that “illegal immigrants” are the scourge of this country, and are a very hot topic in the political world. Let’s dispel any myths and misunderstandings on this subject once and for all.
#Immigration #ImmigrationReform
Read, RT, LEARN! 😁🧠
The first item I’d like to point out, is that a better term we should use would be undocumented immigrant. “Illegal alien” creates and perpetuates the stigma that these people are inherently bad, or criminal. The reality is that they are just seeking a better life.
Probably the biggest misunderstanding is that everyone should simply just immigrate legally, when in reality there’s nothing simple about it. There are very specific and restrictive criteria one must meet in order to immigrate to the U.S. legally.

Here are some real ideas to fix the #immigration system.

1. Get rid of the 3 and 10 year bars and replace with a fine.
2. Put more asylum officers near the border.
3. Create a market-based cap for employment-based immigration.
4. Create an entrepreneurial startup visa.
5. Create a path to a green card for E-2 investors. Include any children brought here before age 21.
6. Let's really make a 10 year law: provisional green cards.
7. Direct DHS to allow people to take the steps to correct their immigration status.
8. Penalties besides deportation.
9. Put money and resources into fraud detection.
10. Expand guest worker programs to allow people to go back and forth.
11. Invest in antigang resources.
12. Centralized U visa databases.
13. Tax incentives for microbusiness in high unemployment areas.
14. State biz incubators.

“Merit based immigration...” theguardian.com/us-news/2016/n…
“Merit based immigration” enthusiast @realDonaldTrump’s grandfather “...emigrated to the US aged 16 initially to escape poverty, attracted by the gold rush.” And then when he failed at finding gold ... DURING THE GOLD RUSH...
And WHY was Merit Based Grandpa prevented from practicing self-deportation back to his own country? Spoiler alert: his grandson would one day inherit the family bone spurs...

The White House #immigration principles released last night r a White Supremacist wish list of anti-immigrant hate law. Low lights include:
Border Wall (no surprise there); Gutting the bipartisan laws w/protect unaccompanied kids so they can be deported back to horrific violence;
gutting the asylum law so that refugees can be sent back to persecution and torture; gutting due process to speed up deportation
