I keep going back to this insane thread, but Anna made the claim that Facebook/Meta paid out a "massive fine" for obscuring job listings from Americans.

The fine was $14 million dollars, and Meta has a market cap of $1.3T.

It's not a fine. It's the cost of doing business. Image
Here's the 13 page "settlement agreement" which lays out exactly how they do this shit.

dol.gov/sites/dolgov/f…Image
Every foreign applicant who meets "minimum requirements" must be contacted.

MINIMUM. REQUIREMENTS.

Imagine if job seekers in the US were guaranteed by law that applications be reviewed by a human being as opposed to ATS/AI.

Why are these rules for non-Americans only?? Image
The claim Anna makes is that HR departments of companies cannot handle this.

Imagine an HR department at your workplace that actually had to focus on hiring and onboarding only, as opposed to all the insanity we've seen spewing from that "job title."

Lol lmao.
There is something interesting being published tomorrow:

USCIS (US Immigration) will now be able to enforce actions against violators of immigration law. This is, theoretically, a big step in eliminating cross-bureau hangups.

It's not officially published until later today, but here's the document:

public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2025-16978.pdfImage
And something I found interesting, though I don't know how intentional this is:

This removes the authority from the Attorney General (Bondi) and gives to Noem (DHS).

This is bottom of page 13.

Might be a necessity to make processes work, but still it stands out to me. Image
In closing, the PERM "fine" from 2021 asserts at the bottom that violators can be reported to USCIS.

If this change tomorrow does what it has the potential to do, enforcement could actually be carried out by the bureau you're required to submit complaints to. Image
I don't want to be too optimistic about anything, ever. But I do think I see the vision here, and I hope it is even a fraction successful.

It also could potentially give We The People a direct line of communication with people who can actually DO SOMETHING.
@threadreaderapp unroll please
@threadreaderapp CORRECTION:

I gave you dangerous misinformation when I said Meta's market cap is $1.3T. It's actually $1.8T.

;) Image
@threadreaderapp According to the release from USCIS, in one month we can report it and the people receiving the reports have enforcement authority. First time ever, seemingly before you’d get passed around between bureaus and red tape.

Game on.
@threadreaderapp I think side-stepping Bondi and giving this job to Noem is a smart move. I plan to keep their reporting line on my speed dial.
@threadreaderapp When this rolls out, I’ll make a one-stop page on my site with all the links and info you need so you can do the same, if you like. ;)

You can buy a thirty thousand dollar computer with a brain organoid in it that has an independently grown vascular system and a blood brain barrier.

"Wetware" is the biggest affront to humanity happening right now, accelerating rapidly, and it's rarely talked about. I hate it.
Language models are not sentient.

These things are, or are on the very cusp of it.
Plz stop. Image

Hey @elonmusk you could always accelerate progress on Epstein/Maxwell files by unlocking Ghislaine's old account.

The follower/following # has dwindled quite a bit since it was first archived (just the locked account).

Idk if it's legal but this is your site YOLO.

El Chapo’s son plead guilty yesterday and is negotiating with the DOJ to provide information on the Sinoloa Cartel.

Mexico’s President Claudia is demanding their government have a say in these arrangements, which is absurd to the highest order.
This is going to be a story to keep your eye on as it develops. There’s palpable panic in Mexico lol.

I posted that Huntsman spider and now the biggest spider I’ve ever seen in my life is on my wall. Little Cat is on high alert, my heart is pounding, and I’m going in.

Til Valhalla!
It has to die, sorry hippies.
It ran behind a bookshelf and is now MIA. 😬

Since "white labeling" and imports and luxury good markups are being discussed heavily right now, let me introduce you to one of my favorite niche research resources: ImportYeti.

It's incredibly powerful. Enjoy.

You wanna see shipments, factories, items, etc., for 70 million US companies?

Yeah you do. Image
It's actually crazy how good this site is.

Fair warning: You might have to make an account after a search or two, but it is free. They did that a while back due to scrapers.

But I love this site, forever a huge fan. Image
