You Thought H-1B Was Bad? Turns Out ‘Opt’ Is What’s Really Killing American Jobs…

Well, folks, just when you thought the immigration debate couldn’t get any spicier, another nightmare program takes center stage. Forget the drama around H-1B visas or student visa scams—turns out there’s an even bigger culprit lurking in the shadows. Meet OPT, the granddaddy of them all, and trust me, every American needs to know how this scam operates.

Here at Revolver, we’ve been tackling the immigration issue from every possible angle. Recently, we uncovered how the student visa program operates as a massive, rigged scam—one that not only funnels money into “woke” universities but also steals job opportunities from hardworking Americans. And now, with OPT entering the spotlight, the stakes have skyrocketed even further.

Now it’s time to dig into one of the most sinister programs out there: OPT. Brace yourselves, because this is where things get seriously anti-American—and downright ugly.

US Tech Workers:

You thought the H-1B visa was bad? Wait until you hear about the largest guest worker program killing jobs for new American college grads—the Optional Practical Training (OPT):

• No caps
• Employers get payroll tax exemptions
• No wage requirements

OPT was originally a 1-year work permit for international students graduating from U.S. colleges to gain U.S. work experience to take back to their home countries. It was never meant as a permanent immigration pathway, but rather a short-term opportunity for skill development

What began as a “short-term” program has morphed into a full-blown weapon against American jobs—just the way the globalists (looking at you, Bill Gates) planned it.

In 2008, Bill Gates lobbied Congress to expand H-1B caps, claiming a tech worker shortage. However, there was significant pushback and it was pointed out that Microsoft was laying off U.S. workers while simultaneously advocating for more foreign labor.

When Bill Gates couldn’t get his H-1B dreams to materialize, he called in favors from his high-powered buddies to rework the system in his favor.

After Bill Gates failed to get Congress to pass an immigration bill expanding H-1B visas, he enlisted lobbyist Jack Krumholtz to devise a plan using the OPT program to bypass the H-1B caps.

At a cocktail party, lobbyist Jack Krumholtz met then-DHS Secretary Michael Chertoff under George W. Bush and pitched his proposal to expand the OPT program. He suggested extending its duration beyond 1 year, effectively creating a workaround for H-1B visa caps.

Bill’s plan worked, and OPT became a lethal US job-killing weapon.
