Summary
Steve Bannon intensified divisions within the MAGA movement by calling for “reparations” for American workers allegedly displaced by H-1B visa holders, whom he also advocated deporting.
On his show, War Room, Bannon criticized Elon Musk and others for supporting the visa program, claiming it undercuts U.S. workers.
The H-1B program, which allows companies to hire skilled foreign workers, has divided MAGA, with anti-immigration factions opposing it.
Musk’s support of the visas and clashes with conservatives, including Laura Loomer, have escalated tensions, raising questions about his alignment with MAGA priorities.
Bannon seems like he’s identified all the pain points Americans are feeling, but has the exact wrong ideas on how to solve all of them.
