A conservative satirist has joined Veebs, the value-based shopping app, as a senior communications advisor, and he told RedState that working with the value-scoring purchasing app's research staff, he learned about how the Harris-Biden administration was working with corporate America to replace American workers with refugees.

“Veebs crunches the data, and we package it for our subscribers so they can make their own decisions based on their own worldview,” said Tim Young, who X-posts at @timrunshismouth. “We have seen tremendous interest in our product, and we think this story and this technology is just getting started.”

Young said an example of the deep-dive research that feeds into the Veebs algos is the work the company did on the refugee advocacy group Tent, founded by Hamdi Ulukaya, the founder, chairman, and CEO of the Chobani yogurt empire.

Ulukaya created Tent as maybe the first official Trump-proofing of a leftwing policy.

One week after New York City developer Donald J. Trump was elected president, President Barack Obama hosted Ulukaya and other business leaders representing Airbnb, Accenture, Deloitte, McKinsey & Co., and Supercell, among others, and formally transferred leadership of Obama’s Call to Action for Private Sector Engagement on the Global Refugee Crisis to the yogurt mogul. 

Young said that as soon as President Joseph R. Biden Jr. moved into the White House, his administration fired up its official support of the program, which encouraged American corporations to favor new immigrants over native-born workers.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken formalized the relationship when, on Dec. 12, 2022, he signed onto a public-private partnership that integrated Tent and State efforts to support refugees and pipeline them into corporate America with Ulukaya.

“Americans always suspected companies were using immigrants to replace them in the job market; they need to know it is true," the Baltimore native said. 

"Corporate America is working with Biden-Harris to weaponize the Tent Partnership for Refugees to steal jobs from American workers—and it should make people extremely angry,” he said.

“It is a fact that in 2024 alone, native-born Americans lost 1.3 million jobs while foreign-born workers gained 1.2 million jobs,” the Texas resident said. “The legacy media and corrupt politicians have covered this up while American workers suffer.”

Young: It takes three steps to replace U.S. workers with refugees

Young said it is a three-step process with the State Department and NGOs, like Tent, lined up to do the dirty work.

“First, they reclassify illegal immigrants as ‘asylum seekers,’ which all allows them to bypass the process and fast-track entry into the U.S., and in turn, the workforce,” he said. 

“Second, they fly the asylum seekers into Small Town, U.S.A., as we saw in Springfield, Ohio,” he said.

“Springfield has a population of roughly 58,000 people, but over the past few years, 15,000 Haitians magically ended up there,” he said. “Or, if you don’t believe in magic, you’ll believe hundreds of chartered buses all paid for by the U.S. taxpayer.”

The comic said Step 3 is too easy to guess: “They replace the American workers with the illegals.”

Young said companies fire the Americans and hire the illegal for less money and let the government subsidize it.

One of the programs is the Federal Bonding Program, a Labor Department program, where the federal government covers the employment expenses for hard-to-place employees for up to six months, he said. Refugees also qualify for federal Empowerment Zone Employment Credits and Work Opportunity Tax Credits.

“Tyson Foods is a classic case study,” he said. “As of March, more than one-third of Tyson’s employees, 42,000 out of 120,000, were in the asylum program,” he said.

“With my value settings, Tyson Foods scores nearly as low as possible,” he said.

“It is not just Tyson’s,” he said. 

“Tent works with more than 400 companies, including Barilla, Diageo, Marriott, Kellanova--which used to be Kellogg’s--L’Oreal and PepsiCo,” Young said. In May, Time magazine named the Tent Partnership for Refugees to the "TIME100 Most Influential Companies List," not by accident.

Young: Using the Veebs app takes seconds

The app is easy enough. I entered three priorities: America First, Conservative, and Support for Veterans. Next, I grabbed a bottle of Zephyrhills spring water, zapped the bar code, and Veebs gave the company a score of 63 out of 100. 

Young said sometimes the results surprise him because the leftwing capture of corporate America has been so successful.

“We need to be able to track these anti-American efforts and change our consumer habits in real-time.”

"Companies are venturing into the sociopolitical arena, and many are anchoring on one side only of certain issues that may be closer to 50-50 with their consumer base,” said Young.

“That is the company's choice, as it is the consumer’s prerogative to approve or disapprove of that choice,” he said.

“Veebs allows users to quickly scan products or search for companies to determine if the products they are shopping for align with their values,” he said.

"Veebs helps me support companies that support my conservative worldview, and it alerts me to the times I am giving money to people trying to destroy the culture I want to live in."
