    Michael Bloomberg's guest blogger, Joshua Green on whether Donald
    Trump will attempt to enlist Peter Thiel's VP JD Vance to serve as
    Trump's Deputy Chief Sales Critter for Trump's bipartisan,
    comprehensive, merit-based, immigration reform legislative legacy
    authored by the Cheap Labor Lobby and passed by Mike Johnson's
    House.GOV and John Thune's Senate.GOV: <URL:https://news.bloomberglaw.com/antitrust/silicon-valleys-swing-from-obama-to-trump-marks-a-new-era>
    | Democrats are aghast but mostly powerless. Some Trump loyalists are
    | discovering they are, too. When old-school MAGA bosses such as Steve
    | Bannon have challenged Musk and the tech crowd, they've generally
    | lost. Although the two men share some policy goals and a destructive
    | zeal, Bannon went to war with Musk during the transition, aiming to
    | thwart the Tesla Inc. and SpaceX founder's desire to increase the
    | number of high-skilled immigrants allowed into the US through the
    | H1-B visa program. In early January, Bannon vowed to have Musk "run
    | out of here by Inauguration Day" and declared that "he will not have
    | full access to the White House. He will be like any other person."

    What will be the foreign born population in Howard Lutnick's Census.GOV headcounts and share of the American labor market in Lori Chavez-
    DeRemer's BLS.GOV surveys at the end of Donald Trump's second term and
    how will those facts on the ground impact Thiel-Vance 2028 campaign for WhiteHouse.GOV?

    "Moody will take up a pro-DeSantis position in the Senate in
    preparation for a head-to-head contest between Ron DeSantis and JD
    Vance in 2028 for the GOP presidential nomination. As senator,
    Ashley Moody will be unlikely to challenge any of the Trump agenda
    and will likely support it given the stakes for Ron. All in all, a
    predictable outcome." - Sundance <URL:https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2025/01/16/ron- desantis-appoints-florida-ag-ashley-moody-to-replace-marco-rubio-in- the-senate/>
