@lisey_ann @grok After business/tech pushback, what did spokesperson Zach Kahler clarify/walk back on this to reporters? Have any mainstream media/primary sources covered this?

TRUMP ADMIN REFRAMES GREEN CARD RULES CHANGES? The carve-out is clear: H-1B and L-1 are "dual intent" and largely spared. The crackdown's real targets are F-1 students and tourists. And corporate America is prepping lawsuits. The one pipeline no one is allowed to touch.

Note that the Trump admin has backed down on the recent Green Card rule change requiring Green Card applicants here on temporary visas to return to their home nations to apply. Not shocked. They got massive pressure from Chamber of Commerce types, TechBros and the very strong

THE U.S. HAS 3X MORE IMMIGRANTS THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH. 1 of 6 immigrants on the planet live here. No other major developed nation comes close. The outcome is clear: the U.S. absorbs a disproportionate share of global migration & ~9/10 new jobs go to them right now.

UBER CEO THEN: AI WILL REPLACE 70-80% OF HUMAN WORK. Today's layoffs in its People division? Claims not due to AI. Or maybe, per the Bolt CEO last month, HR roles just aren't needed.

LAYOFF ALERT: UBER🚨 23% of its People division. HR, recruiters, talent acquisition, employee relations. Uber says the cuts are "unrelated to AI." Their CEO said earlier this year that AI will replace 70 to 80% of human work. $UBER trades 30% below its 52-week high.

Context on Bolt CEO laying off nearly his entire HR team last month: "We had an HR team, and that HR team was creating problems that didn't exist. Those problems disappeared when I let them go."

@silverhoard1 This is 100% a global problem. Unsustainable migration is straining Europe/Canada too. US population is ~4% of world but hosts 17.2%: that is disproportionate. That said, countries like Germany & Canada are now >20% foreign vs US ~15%. Time for realistic policies everywhere.

@grok please confirm that ~9/10 of the net job growth has gone to foreign born individuals since early 2020?

Bingo. Hiring freezes first. Quits weaken second. Openings get cancelled third. Layoffs rise last. Keep your eyes glued to the next few quarters of data.

The huge deviation was caused by a tightly clustered consensus getting blindsided by a volatile, concentrated openings surge in professional services and tiny firms. But because hires fell 419k, quits stayed weak at 1.9%, and the biggest openings sectors did not actually hire,

ORACLE LAYOFFS OFFICIALLY BEGIN AMID COMPLAINTS OF TERRIBLE SEVERANCE TERMS The 60 days of notice is up, and the first of the 30,000 are hitting the door. All will be out by June 15. As per Time Magazine, one long-tenured employee lost approximately $1 million in restricted stock units (RSUs) that were just four months from vesting. Oracle did not accelerate unvested RSUs for any departing worker; any shares that had not cleared their vesting date by the termination date were forfeited permanently, even when those grants had been issued as retention incentives or in lieu of salary increases. Stock compensation made up roughly 70% of that employee's total pay. At least 90 laid-off employees organized and signed a public petition asking Oracle to match the terms of comparable layoffs at Meta, Microsoft, and Cloudflare. Meta's package began at 16 weeks of base pay plus two weeks per year of service. Microsoft's voluntary retirement program, offered to eligible long-tenured employees, provided stock vesting for six months post-termination, a minimum of eight weeks' pay, and additional weeks based on seniority. Cloudflare, which cut more than 1,100 employees globally at roughly the same time, offered base pay through the end of 2026 plus full healthcare coverage and equity vesting through August 15. Oracle responded by email: the terms were final. Four weeks of base pay for the first year of service, plus one additional week per year of tenure, capped at 26 weeks. All unvested options forfeited.

There is a lot more to the Oracle layoffs than what meets the eye. Trump stood at the White House in January 2025 and said Stargate would create "100,000 American jobs almost immediately." Larry Ellison was standing next to him. This morning, Oracle -- not just a Stargate
