US DOJ sues SpaceX for....

Maybe this is politics, but I consider it to be more of a business topic. Move the post if necessary.
The US Department of Justice is suing Elon Musk’s SpaceX over allegations that it discriminated against asylees and refugees in hiring. In a lawsuit filed on Wednesday, the DOJ claims that, from at least September 2018 to May 2022, SpaceX discouraged refugees and asylees from applying to the company “by wrongly stating that SpaceX can only hire U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents.”
The lawsuit states SpaceX “failed to fairly consider” and “refused to hire” the asylees and refugees who ended up applying anyway. It also alleges that SpaceX “wrongly claimed” that the US’s export control laws allowed it to only hire US citizens and lawful residents. Additionally, the DOJ claims SpaceX hired “only” US citizens and green card holders from September 2018 to September 2020.

Refugees and asylees. The new words for illegal aliens.

Call me crazy, but it seems like a good idea to have US citizens working on the US space program.

The DOJ is suing on behalf of illegals, with no SSN, and no way to background check them, against and American company that would hire American workers over the illegals.
Yes. Believe them when they say they are doing their best to secure the border… and that the DOJ is apolitical.
And sorry… how can the US sue an American company on behalf of a foreign national???

Probably could have used a few to help rebuild the launchpad.

Welcome to our new government overlords that care more about illegals than its own citizens.

So the DOJ will sue you if you don't hire illegals but ICE is supposed to prosecute you if you do.

In other words, they followed the law. How the hell does someone (or a hierarchy of someones, because lawsuits by the DOJ don't happen in a vacuum) come to the conclusion that this has anything even approaching merit???
