WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — An online spat between factions of supporters over immigration and the tech industry has thrown internal divisions in his political movement into public display, previewing the fissures and contradictory views his coalition could bring to the White House. The rift laid bare the tensions between the newest flank of Trump’s movement — wealthy members of the tech world including billionaire and fellow entrepreneur and their call for more highly skilled workers in their industry — and people in Trump’s Make America Great Again base who championed his hardline immigration policies. The debate touched off this week when , a right-wing provocateur with a history of racist and conspiratorial comments, criticized Trump’s selection of as an adviser on artificial intelligence policy in his coming administration. Krishnan favors the ability to bring more skilled immigrants into the U.S. Loomer declared the stance to be “not America First policy” and said were doing so to enrich themselves. Much of the debate played out on the social media network X, which Musk owns. Loomer’s comments sparked a back-and-forth with venture capitalist and former , whom Trump has tapped to be the “White House A.I. & Crypto Czar.” Musk and Ramaswamy, , weighed in, defending the tech industry’s need to bring in foreign workers. It bloomed into a larger debate with more figures from the hard-right weighing in about the need to hire U.S. workers, whether values in American culture can produce the best engineers, free speech on the internet, the newfound influence tech figures have in Trump’s world and what his political movement stands for. Trump has not yet weighed in on the rift. His presidential transition team did not respond to questions about positions on visas for highly skilled workers or the debate between his supporters online. Instead, his team instead sent a link to a post on X by longtime adviser and immigration hard-liner that was a transcript of a speech Trump gave in in which he praised figures and moments from American history. Musk, the world’s richest man who has , was a central figure in the debate, not only for his stature in Trump’s movement but his stance on the tech industry’s hiring of foreign workers. Technology companies say H-1B visas for skilled workers, used by software engineers and others in the tech industry, are critical for hard-to-fill positions. But critics have said they undercut U.S. citizens who could take those jobs. Some on the right have called for the program to be eliminated, not expanded. Born in South Africa, Musk was once on an a H-1B visa himself and defended the industry’s need to bring in foreign workers. “There is a permanent shortage of excellent engineering talent,” he said in a post. “It is the fundamental limiting factor in Silicon Valley.” Trump’s own positions over the years have reflected the divide in his movement. His tough immigration policies, including his pledge for a mass deportation, were central to his winning presidential campaign. He has focused on immigrants who come into the U.S. illegally but he has also , including family-based visas. As a presidential candidate in 2016, Trump called the H-1B visa program “very bad” and “unfair” for U.S. workers. After he became president, Trump in 2017 issued a “Buy American and Hire American” , which directed Cabinet members to suggest changes to ensure H-1B visas were awarded to the highest-paid or most-skilled applicants to protect American workers. Trump’s businesses, however, have hired foreign workers, including , and his social media company behind his Truth Social app for highly skilled workers. During his 2024 campaign for president, as he made immigration his signature issue, Trump said immigrants in the country illegally are “poisoning the blood of our country” and promised to carry out the largest deportation operation in U.S. history.

Those comments came on the cusp of Trump’s budding alliance with tech industry figures, but he did not make the idea a regular part of his campaign message or detail any plans to pursue such changes.

How Trump’s bet on voters electing him managed to silence some of his legal woesWEST PALM BEACH, Fla.

Loomer's comments sparked a back-and-forth with venture capitalist and former PayPal executive David Sacks , whom Trump has tapped to be the “White House A.I. & Crypto Czar."

Vanderpump Rules vet Scheana Shay breaks silence on James Kennedy's domestic violence arrest Have YOU got a story? Email tips@dailymail.com By ASHLEIGH GRAY FOR DAILYMAIL.COM Published: 15:36 EST, 27 December 2024 | Updated: 15:47 EST, 27 December 2024 e-mail 7 shares View comments Scheana Shay has broken her silence on former Vanderpump Rules co-star James Kennedy 's recent domestic violence arrest. On the latest episode of her Scheananigans podcast, the 39-year-old host addressed the 32-year-old DJ's run-in with the law and explained what took her so long to respond. She said to listener's on Friday's episode: 'I did write out what I wanted to say because I want to try and be just as eloquent as possible. I want to get what I want to say out without stumbling over my words.' Kennedy's arrest came amid an argument with live-in girlfriend Ally Lewber, whose privacy Shay said she wanted to protect . 'I was respecting Ally’s privacy — as she requested,' Scheana explained. 'So I wasn’t going to say anything on the podcast, but I now see how that’s coming off by staying silent. So I have spoken to Ally. I check in with her often. I always have. But I know it seems like if I stay silent, you all somehow think I support his behavior, which I absolutely do not,' she clarified. Scheana Shay has broken her silence on former Vanderpump Rules co-star James Kennedy 's recent domestic violence arrest; pictured in November On the latest episode of her Scheananigans podcast, the 39-year-old host addressed the 32-year-old DJ's run-in with the law and explained what took her so long to respond; Kennedy pictured December 10, hours before his arrest Police were called to Kennedy’s home on December 10, hours after he attended Kathy Hilton and DIRECTV's Christmas At Kathy's 2024 event. Law enforcement received a call about an argument between a man and a woman, and allegedly a witness saw James grabbing the woman, though no visible injuries were found. While Scheana kept quiet initially, Kennedy’s exes Kristen Doute and Rachel 'Raquel' Leviss both released separate statements about their respective ups and downs with him. The reality television personality was released on $20,000 and later posted a statement of his own to social media. Scheana said on Friday: 'Obviously, I was very close with Raquel for years. And while she always told me that James was never physically abusive, as we all know, abuse isn’t limited to just physical. 'And ultimately it led to her exiting that relationship. I had a lot of empathy for her... I wanted to do anything I could to help and give her a safe space.' She continued, 'I do hope that James views this as a rock bottom moment and is serious about just committing to a healing plan versus just seeing this as something that’s gonna, like, "ruin the world tour" or residency or whatever.' The mother-of-one, who shares two-year-old daughter Summer with husband Brock Davies, noted, 'I’ve noticed his name has been taken off of certain shows and that is a direct consequence [of] his actions.' Kennedy's arrest came amid an argument with live-in girlfriend Ally Lewber, whose privacy Shay said she wanted to protect; pictured one week before the domestic violence incident In the wake of his arrest, James vowed to make 'meaningful changes in my life' Read More Lisa Vanderpump reignites Kristen Doute feud with pregnancy dig and The Valley star fires right back Days after his arrest, James took to social media to share a somber message with followers. 'I am committed to making meaningful changes in my life. I am taking time to focus on my sobriety, personal growth, and being present for my loved ones,' he vowed. The 'Bravo-lebrity' continued, 'Navigating challening moments is not easy, but I am determined to learn, grow, and move forward with the incredible support system around me.' Meanwhile, his lawyer stated they would be looking into the domestic violence complaint. 'We are in the process of conducting our own investigation into the allegations levied by the Burbank Police Department against James,' attorneys for Kennedy told DailyMail.com. 'We understand that there were no injuries and we are hoping that, after careful review, the city’s attorneys will decide not to file formal charges.' Kennedy has been dating Lewber since 2022, following the end of his engagement to Leviss. Scheana shares two-year-old daughter Summer with husband Brock Davies Shay encouraged Kennedy 'to get help' on her newest podcast release. She stressed, 'And not just to prevent Ally — or some other girl — from being subjected to abusive behavior in the future, but to give himself a chance to live life with healthy relationships. 'I know he wants those things for himself and he needs to give himself the proper tools to deal with his trauma that doesn’t involve projecting it on to others.' Speaking toward Ally, she shared, 'I want her to know that she is supported. I don’t want to say something that then puts her in a position where it’s like she has to choose between a friendship or a relationship. 'I just don’t want there to be one less mechanism of support for her. That’s just only going to make things harder.' Lewber previously made a statement via Instagram Stories that read, 'Thank you to everyone who has reached out with love and support and for checking in on me. 'I’m OK and taking the time I need right now. I deeply appreciate all the kindness and respect for my privacy during this time.'
