Weren't Microsoft just caught cheating trying to hire H1B's without looking for US based applicants first?
Given that they are now saying they have 25% too many employees, perhaps they should be banned from hiring H1B's altogether until they're rehired however many they end up letting go ...

No they weren't. If this administration had strong reasons to believe Microsoft cheated and engaged in fraudulent practices, the DoJ would have opened an investigation leading to punitive measures. It's a dog whistle and red meat for "the base."

That's not going to happen. It's easier for them to send the jobs offshore. You could support banning American companies from hiring in other companies in addition to immigration. I'm sure that will work out great for the US.
Ah yes, the old “well we won’t hire you anyway” argument, that’s a good one
I don't know why they would do that. Just look at all the names and locations of the people keeping the lights on in their public Azure repos..
Spoiler; they just staff up directly overseas now.
lol, wonder if this one will be flagged too.
