Former CNN anchor Don Lemon laughed out loud in a viral video as he reacted to the MAGA implosion over the H-1B visa issue. His rant laden with the choicest of expletives targeted at the Republicans went viral as Republicans commented that it was Don Lemon’s meltdown as he does not know such debates are part of the party.
“Finding out, you dumb f**king idiots? Now you’re just figuring this s**t out? You’re so f**king stupid, and you deserve it. You f**king deserve it because you’re so dumb,” Lemon said adding that he is gloating over the MAGA stupidity.
“You’ve been co-opted because you’re in a f**king cult, and you don’t even realize it ‘cause you have stupid MAGA brain, and you don’t get it. How stupid and dumb are you?” Don Lemon said.
Major MAGA implosion over H-1B
H-1B is the visa program that allows US companies to hire foreign workers. DOGE co-chiefs Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, Donald Trump’s incoming AI advisors David Sacks, Sriram Krishnan spoke in favour of extending the H-1B program so that more skilled foreign workers can enter the United States. This came in a direct clash with the America First policy — and both the parties gunned at each other on social media.
The war of words reached a feverish point where far-Right activist Laura Loomer claimed that she was being censured on X because of her differing views on H-1B. And Elon Musk declared war against Republicans who are not in favor of the expansion. Elon Musk said it’s because of this visa program that many people like him are now in the US and working for the betterment of the country.
President-elect Donald Trump’s intervention dialed down the infighting after Trump said he was always in favor of visa programs.
Elon Musk then said H-1B needs reforms as the present situation is plagued by many irregularities. Aimed at attracting the top talents from the world, it should raise the minimum salary significantly, Elon Musk said adding that the program at present is broken.
“Easily fixed by raising the minimum salary significantly and adding a yearly cost for maintaining the H1B, making it materially more expensive to hire from overseas than domestically,” Elon Musk said.
