The garage rant comes at a time when Indians, specifically in Texas, face a lot of hatred for what Americans refer to as a 'takeover'.

Which means in the next 60 days if they don't get sponsored by somebody else, these Indians are going to have to head back to India," Stewman said, referring to the recent layoffs that affected Indians in the US.
