B visa continues to play out on X with Elon Musk attacking a critic of the program with a profane quote from "Tropic Thunder."

President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday sided with key supporter and billionaire tech CEO Elon Musk in a public dispute over the use of the H-1B visa, saying he fully backs the program for foreign tech workers opposed by some of his supporters.

The comments came as Trump loyalists have been fulminating against each other online for days over the H-1B visas. Immigration hard-liners, including Trump backers like Laura Loomer and Steve Bannon, subscribe to an “America First” agenda focused on creating more jobs for American citizens.

Trump's latest shift in stance comes as major divide emerged within his MAGA team in the United States. Musk and Ramaswamy, both foreign-origin leaders, heading Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) seem to have reignited the debate.

Musk and Ramaswamy have found themselves at odds with some of Trump's supporters over their support for H-1B visas, which allow foreign professionals to work in America.

Musk has tried to make the case for H-1B visas as a vital tool to strengthen the U.S. economy even as his own SpaceX just had a banner year without them.

President-elect Donald Trump has weighed in on the debate that roiled his MAGA movement and split them in recent weeks: skilled immigration. Department of Government Efficiency nominees Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk have come under heavy fire for their support of H-1B visas in recent days from the anti-immigration right.
