Rough translation of message from Twitter:

“Electoral Justice guarantees security and reliability of the entire Election process
2022
The Superior Electoral Court (TSE) and the Regional Electoral Courts (TREs) have established a series of audit parameters and processes…
…to ensure the security and integrity of elections. The Electoral Justice carries out periodic security tests of electronic voting machines, in addition to providing voting reports to polling station officials and inspectors from political parties…
…the Armed Forces, the Brazilian Bar Association (OAB) and the Public Ministry. In addition, voters can access the ballot box. The TSE also established a Transparency Commission to develop new best practices in electoral transparency.”

Okay since the H1B visa and country caps and the tech sector and India an Indians are all a hot topic right now, I would like to address this as someone who has worked behind the scenes in H1B consultancies in the tech sector and explain EXACTLY why I’m against removing country caps, against the H1B visa, and against the entire canard that we need to import more people from anywhere, let alone India, to do “jobs that the tech sector can’t find Americans to do:

1) Sourcing Talent- Big companies like Google and Meta have the resources to go and actually pluck out the ACTUAL best talent from these countries, and it’s not hard for them to attract those applicants either because they have the brand recognition. All the best want to work for the best. This isn’t necessarily the problem. The problem is all the no name consultancies and mid size/small size consultancies. They can petition for H1B’s too. How are they sourcing them? Well, they (usually run by Indians) just find a guy from India through their network…who’s willing to work for them and come to America. That’s it. They’ll make sure they have some kind of Bachelors or Masters from some college out there and have the aptitude to learn and understand software that’s it. They aren’t actually “geniuses” or anything like that. They are just willing to work and can learn to “talk the talk” quickly.

2) Importation- once the prospective worker agrees, the consultancy petitions the American government (USCIS) on their behalf, saying they tried to recruit for the job (job doesn’t exist) in America and couldn’t find anyone, that’s why they need to bring this guy. Key part of this is that the visa is tied to the employer, so if the employer drops the worker, worker has to go back. He can’t just find another job. This is the indentured servitude model.

3) The Gambit- the consultancy makes sure the guy speak English, and that’s really it. USCIS can’t actually vet the workers on the knowledge they claim they have, especially a vast and sophisticated field like software. USCIS doesn’t actually have a way to tell if someone is lying about their skills or not. All they have to do is convince the USCIS that they can speak English so they can come and immediately start working here.

4) The Actual Job- once they get the petition for visa approved and they come here, they find out (or already know) they actually don’t have a job here yet. The consultancy now tries to find Corp to Corp contract gigs for the worker. That’s if they actually know the tech and they’re not faking. If they are faking their skills, another workflow is initiated.

5) Training Day (or months) - the fakers are trained for up to 3-4 months in a software that’s marketable and fetch a good hourly contract rate. Basically a coding Bootcamp style program. They go from zero to superficial knowledge in the tech, just enough to pass an interview with a potential client.

6) Sell the fake - after training the fake for 3-4 months, the fake is provided with a fake resume claiming 7-8 years of experience. Why? Because that’s how much experience is needed to demand a minimum of $50 per hour on a contract. Does it work? Duh. These workers trained for 3-4 months routinely fool interviewers looking for 7-8 years experience.

7) The Split- once the job and rate is secured, the consultancy bills at $50 per hour and pays the actual worker the minimum (about $27.50) an hour, and the consultancy pockets the difference. Imagine a 100 H1Bs on a roster doing this for you.

Does this sound like fraud? Well that’s because it is, from beginning to end.
Ask yourself, if some Indian fresh off the boat, getting 3-4 months of training is able to fool an American that they are actually a seasoned 7-8 year professional, why can’t we just train Americans to do that? Why import anyone?

That’s where the indentured servitude model of tying the visa to the employer is highly important. Americans can take the training and leave and take their talents to another company, because Americans have rights and will not tolerate being mistreated. Imported workers on a H1B do not have such rights or a path for recourse. If the H1B worker doesn’t comply or keep their mouth shut, they are sent back.

This is why Americans aren’t being trained or selected for these jobs, because they can go to another company at any time for any reason. The H1Bs can’t by design.

Merit has nothing to do with anything, and the Americans who are in charge of gatekeeping the system can’t actually sus out merit or fraud. Even worse, they might be scared of denying applications due to “racism”.
The consultancies in the middle are the ones making the big free sweet money, and they’re neither brilliant nor bright at anything. They just have a network back in India of people who are willing to work for them and put up with whatever to make that sweet American dollar that converts so well back in India. That’s the game-plan for them. Make as many dollars here and save them so they can go back to India and “live like kings”. They don’t intend to build or invest here. Just gut America for dollars and bounce.

Check out me, Vince Dao of @AmVirtueOrg, and Joyce Wu mix it up with Asian-American liberals and progressives about identity politics and race on this @VICE panel featuring various Asian-American influencers across the political spectrum. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
I introduce myself and explain that I’m a Hindu Indian born in Brooklyn, New York but describe myself as American and don’t believe in hyphenating my identity.
When the question came to the idea of the “model minority”, I simply state, “The model minority thing, I never thought about it, because I’m too busy trying to be a model American.”

Soon to come, @michaelehayden and @hannahgais get fried by the VP of the New York Young Republican Club Nathan Berger on Matt Binder’s stream when discussing the New York Young Republican Club’s 110th Annual Gala.
In the meantime, I’d like to continue my series of @michaelehayden posting his Ls, and here he is describing the traumatic experience of being physically removed by me from the @nyyrc gala, and proceeds to describe me as a “X-Men Villain.”
I jumped into the live chat while @michaelehayden kvetches about how @nyyrc is a big brain organization engaging in 5D Chess, and then posts a “meta-L” of saying I will indeed post his Ls.

Then him and his boyfriend @hannahgais start crying about not being invited to afterparty.

Read my latest in The National Pulse on the patriot protests that are surging through Brazil and continue to surge as Bolsonaro refuses to concede the Presidential election. thenationalpulse.com/2022/11/01/bur…
“This energetic series of events raises the question: what is the intended result of these uprisings?

The answer is a lot simpler than one might think:…
…The pro-Bolsonaro protesters coordinated the protests and uprisings to convince the military to join them in contesting the results of the questionable election with its demonstrable irregularities….

🧵Thread 🧵

I know everyone is seeing the Hunter Biden iCloud account contents and videos all around the internet and there have been some assertions made about Jack Maxey and what exactly is going on with this whole situation…
First and foremost, the accusation and assertion that Jack Maxey is a Fed or working with the deep state is categorically false. Jack is a dear and close friend of mine and this part is a flat out false accusation…
In the interest of being totally transparent, I would like to publish word for word a message Jack has recently sent me…:
