From ZeroHedge - Replacement Of American Truckers With Unvetted, Unqualified Migrant Drivers Must Stop. Unvetted? Give me a break!

(NOTE: The excerpts below are all from a different article. We'll discuss the above one later.)

Peak Stupidity has written about the story of the dangerous imported truckers that are plying the roads of America before. We covered a lot of, errr, mileage in our post Sick Sikh "trucker", tribalism, and making hay of it all at the end of this summer. Let me recap, with an addition based on our thoughts from the recent post (of last week) Better Hooverville than Hooverstan - those thoughts are what's been inserted and are in italics:
My next point is that with all the talk of California's and Washington's role in these deaths, along with the immigration system, I don't want to hear about "more vetting", "harder CDL tests", and "reading English"**. Let me put it this way: I wouldn’t care if Sikhs were the best damn drivers in the world. I wouldn’t care if they spoke and read English better than all Americans other than William Safire. I don’t care if they will now be vetted down to the number of times they were put in the RTC (Responsible Thinking Center, aka detention) in elementary school back in the Punjab. I don't care that the traffic is no worse, due to that these guys driving the roads are not adding to the traffic because they are only replacing the other ... American drivers.(!)

They shouldn’t be here to begin with!
I won't link to them all, but The Gateway Pundit is good for immigration horror stories such as these, and there have been more publicized horrific wrecks since that post due to incompetent foreign (generally Indian) truckers in Texas, Oregon, and Washington. I'll look at the stories and be somewhat glad - hate to say it in light of the carnage to the innocent motorists involved - that Americans might finally get outraged and some might DO SOMETHING.

In that previous post, it was Ron DeSantis who was doing something about it. He can only make efforts that affect Florida and Florida roads. President Trump, OTOH, CAN affect the whole country. He has been making efforts to get the corrupt, negligent driving schools, CDL issuers of the California government, etc to cease and desist. He's obviously got some good help, as he has been attacking the problem - one that Trump does know is really about that these people are in America to begin with - on various fronts.

This has been more of that administrative action, as the UniParty Congress won't act. One silver lining of the Welfare State we have is that your .org's, .edu's, .gov's, and a bunch of .com's too suckle on Uncle Samantha's teet, one that Trump can pull away from them and turn them into squealing runts.

California Governor Gavin Newscum is one such squealing runt. He doesn't like ...
... the decision by the Department of Transportation (DOT) to hold back $33 million in federal funding for commercial vehicle safety programs because of the state’s decision not to comply with the federal requirements.
He doesn't like how...
The English language requirement was reinstated by the DOT in May of this year
... and ...
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the United States would pause the issuance of worker visas for commercial truck drivers.
... and ...
“We’ve now knocked 9,500 truck drivers out of service for failing to speak our national language—ENGLISH!” Duffy wrote in a Dec. 10 post on X. “This administration will always put you and your family’s safety first.”
... and ...
Around 44 percent of the roughly 16,000 truck driving schools in the country could be forced to close.
ohhhh, so sad ... and ...
Late in November, the DOT warned that Pennsylvania could lose up to $75 million if the state does not immediately revoke the commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) issued to foreign nationals and “correct dangerous failures” identified in its CDL program.
The latter was about Pennsylvania, and Newscum doesn't care about what Pennsylvania does... or does he? Here's another article from ZeroHedge (originally, The Epoch Times):California Sues Trump Admin Over $33 Million Withheld Due To Trucker English-Proficiency Rules. The Governor of California, probably any governor of California there might be these days, does not even pretend to care about the horrific traffic deaths caused by these incompetent and unprofessional foreigners. As with all of the ctrl-left and the Globalists, they are in this for the destruction of the White Middle Class. This requires changing decent Middle Class careers into low-wage unprofessional labor done by foreigner replacements. Though it's not his State money, Newscum would support Pennsylvania and other States when they do the same. They've got a common goal.

While perusing some other articles searched up with the text string "horrific Indian truck driver wrecks" I had another thought about this travesty. Perhaps this replacement of good American jobs in the trucking business is not ONLY being done for the usual reasons the Population Replacement Programme has been implemented.

Some articles about trucker protests came up. It wasn't the first time truckers have made use of their economic importance en masse, but we all remember the huge and important Canadian anti-mandatory-vax trucker protest in the Winter of '22. For a reminder, here's a PS post from that time - Inspiration from the Canucks, eh?.* (I wondered how many Sikhs were involved - a quick web search says quite a few were.)

That "People's Revolt" up in Ottawa had the whole world watching. Though the protest eventually dispersed, with many involved getting not too much short of the J-6 treatment, it might have scared the Globalists. If you recall, that was the time they promptly changed course to an orthogonal heading, the Infotainment of the Ukraine-Russia war. Do they want foreign replacement truckers in the White countries also so that there will be no more such uprisings? Low-paid foreign non-owner/operator gear jammers are not likely to start or lead such a movement.

We've embedded a couple of trucker songs already, but I'll paste in George Thorogood and his Delaware Destroyers here. From their 40 year-ago Maverick album, this is Gear Jammer:

PS: Great point, SafeNow. I agree with your take on these culplrits. It's also a point that I brought up in a post or two about China.

From the following post

https://www.peakstupidity.com/index.php?post=458

DIY and mechanical aptitude in Americans vs. Chinese - self rebuttal

"Lastly, in reference to the Chinese, I don't think that they will ever get to the place where America used to be, where probably a majority of guys could work with their hands, even if it wasn't their living. In China, 3 factors work against this: Firstly, they probably don't genetically have quite the same aptitude, but that is debatable - hence the comments section here, and I am still leaning toward thinking about real mechanical work, as with cars/vehicles, not with electronics in this thought. Secondly, also with regard to automobiles, here and in China, the car culture will never be as it was in 1950's- 1970's America. In both countries, more people live in cities, hence can't afford and don't need cars so much. Lastly, the Chinese culture DOES NOT RESPECT hand labor. A better way of saying that might be that the Chinese ladies (the hot ones, where it matters) value a money-grubbing social-climbing, I'll-scratch-your-back type man over a simple honest hardworking hands-on guy. Because of that, Chinese men will aspire to be the former over the latter, which is a damn shame."

Haha, not just any Homecoming Queen, but the one in The Monkees's song! Yeah, as with the "Uptown Girl" (retro 1950s) Billy Joel song video, in which said Uptown Girl doesn't like Billy Joel as a car mechanic.

PS
“destruction of the White Middle Class. This requires changing decent Middle Class careers into low-wage unprofessional labor done by foreigner replacements.”

Very true, but even before that factor, there was this factor, this culprit: Modern women, because they look down their noses at work-with-your-hands careers. Such careers are solid because: You gotta be there; they can’t replace you with AI because, as a heating-and-air conditioning tech, you gotta be there. Back in the day, women weren’t like that. It was so unusual to find a snooty woman that there must have been a special circumstance operating; like, she had been a homecoming queen, and it becomes the subject of song. I think Trump realizes this snootiness factor, and his first instinct would be to attend trade-school graduations, but then he realizes that because of Trump arrangement syndrome, he would just make matters worse.
