Republican leader Virgil Bierschwale who has emerged as a prominent voice against the H-1B visa program that allows US companies to hire skilled people from foreign countries, has sounded a dire warning for the Indian economy. Reacting to the news that India is set to emerge as the 4th largest world economy, the Republican leader said India's economy is built by American corporations.
The Republican leader said it is India's mistake that they did not hire Americans to work in America. "India’s mistake. By not hiring Americans to work in America, they have woken a sleeping giant," he said.
"Now they are bragging that their economy will soon surpass others not realizing that there (sic) economy is built by American corporations whose executive officers are in the process of being named, identified and held accountable for the destruction they have done to the people of America and their communities. This will devastate the economy of India," the post read.
The anti-India post comes amid a few row over H-1B visas as the USCIS has revealed that they selected over 120,000 H-1B visa applications for 2026. MAGA activists were up in arms as they expected the Trump administration to crack down on the H-1B visa programs which, they allege, rob Americans of their jobs.
"Every politician, corporation, CEO and individuals enabling the Indians must be prosecuted for treason and jailed. We need the help of the legal community in ending this madness," one wrote, commenting on the post.
"They should stay home and manufacture sewage systems. That would be of genuine benefit to India," a hateful comment read.
According to US tech workers, US companies like Walmart are cutting jobs because they want to hire cheap labor from outside. Many tech workers on social media blamed Walmart's Global CTO, Indian-origin Suresh Kumar, for the layoff.
