who will clean the toilets and change the rooms in the high priced hotel rooms for 5$ hour. americans would have to live homeless on the streets on those wages and we know how republicans hate that. this will have a devastating effect on large business and food distribution chains. they were hiring illegals because they could ignore the laws regarding employees rights in working conditions and overtime. not just underpaying them but having them work under illegal conditions some using the field as their bathrooms. this will end badly and they will blame the other party for the fall out as usual. part of the minimum wage increase act was due to the fact the wages didn't match the cost of living. people couldn't afford to pay rent so they live in their car or on the streets and steal if necessary to make ends meet. these were americans doing this not illigals. people in the red states that voted for this will be the first to get burned as usual. it was the democratic party that offered the safety net for those red states.

It is extremely prejudiced and disgusting to say we want to keep a labor force because they are willing to work for cheap, how about you pay people a living wage. ??‍♀️

There are about 800,000 police in the ENTIRE Country... If there are 16,000,000 illegals in the country, Each Police person would have to stop whatever they are doing and, on average, capture 20 illegals... Given that each of these captured people are entitled to plead their case before a judge, How many people will actually be deported before Trump exits??? How much will that cost??? and What happens to the USA while all the Police are engaged in doing Trump's wishes??? What they don't tell us about The Wall is that it's been breached more than 3,000 times and the climate in that area is already degrading the metal and concrete... Trump tried this before in his first term and could not get it done... What makes this Senator think it's going to work this time???

I dont understand what the fuck did they do to yall besides work and try to come to place where they wanted a better life

Who all has read the Washington Post study about how illegals are supporting the dairy industry? Who is going to work split shifts, 8 hours apart for 3-4 hours each shift, walking in hip-deep mud and cow sh_t in knee-high boots, on cow farms, away from actual cities? I think every Republican who's on about this should go work on a dairy farm. They are clueless about reality and the economic repercussions of it. No one wants to pay $30 for a gallon of milk.

Option 1 we gonna SPEND a HUGE amount of money to deport millions of people. \nOption 2 we filter out high crime immigrants and filter those out, after we charge $20000 each illegal for a 2 year visa and work permit as a trial time, and see how they contribute to society. \n Do you have any idea how much money will come in?? It will close 1/4 of your countries deficit.\n Look I'm an immigrant myself, and I was brought in legally as a kid. However because of the difficulties or the bureaucracy I was left out of status. The company I worked for (a delaship) wants me back, customers reach out to me directly because they trusted me and were happy with my performance as their advisor. But guess what I can't work, but I also can't be deported because my country of birth is at war. And I dont want to go back quite frankly because it's back there I'm gonna be an alien more than I am here. I finished a degree and paid my way through collage here I grew up here, and even though because of the problems of the immigration system I was constantly limited with basic equal opportunities I still see this as my home, and actually appreciate this country more than some people I know that were born here. \n Now again - I suffered plenty with being limited as an immigrant here and I was forced to work shitty heavy labor for years and years, I worked overtime plenty with no overtime pay and such (y'all just have no idea what immigrants life is) and in my case - I got stuck in that status for 2 decades. Where I could have had a high degree by now, I instead have been just busting my ass for peanuts. I never asked for any help from the government here even when I could have, never filed unemployment. \nAnd after all this you gonna deport me? Great fucking plan. Land of brave and opportunity ??

These immigrants have drained our economy with all the free money cards they were given the free housing clothing phones etc… \nGo back , want to come back … great get vettted be prepared to work hard and no freebies !!! Not. One. Dime. Oh and learn the language . All these things my grandparents and aunts did . They all\nBuilt a good life and contributed to our country

As easy as they came across as easy as they can go back give me welfare and housing and benifits why work I’ll stay in America too

The sad thing they may target legal and illegal Hispanics!,they are not the only illegal immigrants here!\nAlso legal people will be targeted and harassed!,at my work place a visitor told a house keeper stop coming across the border!

He wants to deport all the criminals first and that's what we need get them out of here they shouldn't be here in the first place they work properly vetted none of them???

He kept screaming about the Haitians in Ohio…who were all there legally btw on work permits!! They need to be left alone!! They have gone through enough hell caused by his ridiculous lies “about the pets”!! Which has and had been debunked already btw!!

If MAGA morons are pissing and moaning about the price of eggs and vegetables now, wait until the prices skyrocket because they insist on this ridiculous unthought out plan to get rid of people that do the work but that they just don't like. You guys do realize that it will cost over $10,000 per person to deport them, right? Besides, these poor people came here for the same dream that your ancestors came here for. Stop the hate and give these people a chance to become Americans!

Well, hopefully the people that live off the government, the American people and the majority of white people starting to go to work that’s a good thing. All the workers we see basically Mexicans and I’d like to see the white Americans to take the Mexican jobs. It’s gonna be very amusing no more food stamps.. work work work will be available. Those are low paying job, but at least they are jobs.

I voted for Harris and despise Trump, however, I'm hoping Repubs do exactly what they've been wanting to do for YEARS, which is to finish their fence/wall along the ENTIRE border, deport ALL illegal/undocumented migrants, many of them Trump supporters, and shut about the stupid border already!! Americans are exhausted with the topic!!! I live in Arizona, I know of some illegal migrants close to me, they support Trump, and I'll be calling ICE on them on Jan 21st and will demand they get deported, and will work to find ALL migrants who supported Trump, and get them out of here!! Trump will crash the economy again, of course, so Dems will have to come in and clean it up again, as they always do after Republicans.

How can it be controversial to want to get rid of illegal immigrants? People who literally broke the law coming here??? If Americans break the law we go to jail and can’t work and are a cost in the average tax payer by being in jail but they got no issue locking us up. But how dare we expect the same standard is held to NON citizens in this country.

Its not as simple as deporting all illegals, All those who complain about inflation, now get ready for for the unseen/ unsaid issues th at come along with this way of doing things, it is tied into the economy and will have enormous impacts of pricing and manufacturing. If you thought it is inflation and the caused by the last admistration, tou are sadly mistaken. Those who do the job for products and farm the food you eat will now no longer exist, and the americans who do no not want to do those jobs, no have no one to do them, and hence chaos will ensue, just like how majority of american manufacturing....ie Snapon, Briggstraton. Etc has all gone over seas to make the easy money out of greed and now puts blame on china as they knew making pennies on the dollar is profitable, but not realizing the consequences of doing so as you lose control of what American made product and now in the hands of foreign countries to do whatever they want and there is nothing you can do about it, as its happening right now in china with companies as Apple, etc are finding out it may be profitable but comes at a price when you do business on foreign soil and you have just lost control. Those who dont know why the border must have a swinging door which swings both ways, as All companies take advantage of south of the border because of vheap labor and laxed regulation so they can get away with what they can get away on us soil. Now you get someone like chump who has zero tolerance and no political experience run it like a business with out understanding of the consequences that comes with actions done with out beabke to compromise. You all complain about inflation, now get ready in your everyday lives, from manufacturing, to groceries, to dining out, and be prepared to pay alot more because now, no one is going to do thise jobs as the so called americans didnt want to do those jobs, as its always gone unspoken that hey they are doing it, and reeps the fruits of the laborors and could care less until it got out of hand as of today. Look what happen when chump when to tax steel and pork for china, its get s aunforseen blow black that you dont see right away. Same now with border. Now you have a Grossly unfit, Unqualified, W'reckless and dangerous individual who has zero clue/experience about politics on a path of ignorant destruction under the cloat of misguided senses it will fix a major problem that has gone on for decades. Is there a . Is chump qualifed to doa and fix it, absolutely not. It has bees just 4 years, as serious as pandemic, look at how he grossly mishandled the situation. Now get ready for more of the same and worst. Its not about politics, its also about right and wrong, good and bad and be able to compromise those complicated issues for a decent medium. Now it will be a total fuck up and get ready for all sensless nonsenses to take place and be ready for the once great United States to fall into despair. This is what all the voting who'ha was about. Now you get to live it and hope in the 4 years the damage wont be soo extreme that we cant go back and unfuck it. Some very dark times are ahead for this country at the helm of a lunatic. After the 4 years, chump will be 82 and could careless the carnage he left behind, as that the way he is a a person who has been taught to have no empathy and to win at all cost despite the consequences. Now, on the world stage where all look to the US, it will be a sad gloomy time with all madness we are about to enbark. This country needs to1st get off its ass and do the work and stop sitting on their asses to complain about it as they do that so well, so now get ready to lie in the bed youve made. Huh! maga?, watch as the US comes apart and divided under chump. The inflatiin you all complain about is now going to be far worst..and every and anything which is mostly will be affected substantially. You are mad about pricing now, people will now have to worry even more...and it will get out of hand. The crime and thieving will now be even more pronounced. When was the last time you had an American pick and facilitate your groceries, or do the cheap paid jobs?. Now you all have to do this youselves. So if you thought it was bad before you are sure in for a rude awakening...as now you have a sitting president who is not a convicted felon, but one who has been given immunity to consequences and no compromise which is a recipe for disaster

Sooooooo you wanna deport all the illegals from your state and most of them do agricultural work. You wanna start paying out the nose for your produce? You think you pay now for fresh fruit and vegetables. Wait till they deport the people who pick the food

Do those ignorant politicians understand there are MANY jods that Americans won't work because they are hard and dangerous with low pay. Many come into the US just for those jobs. Usually they will only stay a few years, until the saved enough, than go back to the homes. Already there are sooo many important and needed jobs that are short handed because of the racists politicians.

American are brainwashed that illegals are poor financially, so they have to save them ? That's double standard. business owners take advantage of illegals cheap labors and political leaders take advantage of their cheap votes. You only have to work for illegal's medical bills and dilute your right for voting. this country is really screwed.

Send out the people there illegally they apply for a correct visa and go back legally. The good will come back and the bad kept out. All have government backing with fair work practices and wages. Simple.

as soon as he win he talks about sending you back, you P-R voted for him, I know that was a slap in the face?‍♂?Trump don't care about how hard they work, he just going to make the B men do what they used to do and paid them less the same way he treated them people he deporting, is the same way he going to treat the Blacks but worst back to slavey unless you rich as hell,

The stupid part is that imagrents add to gdp by working hard and spending money they also supply work to farms and construction they will wreck those industries

A SIGNIFICANT percentage of those who voted for Trump work in industries that are being held up by undocumented work. The construction industry, for example, will CRUMBLE without these workers. The economy will collapse over night. And those that voted for him in these industries will suffer the most. 2026 midterms will be devastating for Republicans should they actually carry this out. If I were the Democrats, I would let these guys dig their own graves, politically speaking.

And still there is no actual problem with immigrants. They pay in more than they cost.\n\nWeird how people think they cost too much, but will happily cheer for wasting millions times that much on pointless walls and deportations.\n\nThen the labor market will collapse, Americans can't work as hard as immigrants! See that every single day, just no actual problems with immigrants as a whole.\n\nThe power of churches and television, folks.

The second dude actually had a point. Nobody hates illegal immigrants more than legal immigrants. It's just painful that you were some kind of elites back in home country, went through a hell of a process and paper work to get yourself citizenship, and other under-educated can just come here legally, spend your tax money and get it? By the way, as someone may argue, they went through the documents, so they would not be deported by denaturalization.

Unless employers and farmers who hire illegals for work are not punished or imprisoned these problems will continue. Believe it or not the same employers voted for trump because they are not held accountable like the illegals. Unless trump brings in law to imprison such employers and farmers all these are stunts just for vote. He was there for 4 years and did not bring this law. Trump is a coward.

It was announced today on the news that the Trump initiative to deport all illegal immigrants will cost up to $1 trillion dollars. That’s a lot of moolah. Which will come out of our taxes. And the tariffs that he went on and on about. Companies aren’t giving out bonuses to workers for end of year. Because they have to save money now because Trump will impose tariffs on incoming goods. The workers didn’t understand they assumed the cost would be paid by importers. In reality, it will trickled down to American consumers who have to pay for goods. Economists have been saying during the election this is a bad idea.Trump tried to do it the last time he was in office and it didn’t work. So people be aware you think you can’t afford things now wait you won’t be able to afford anything. PS the government has nothing to do with price gouging for food and they don’t set the price for gasoline or electricity, etc. ????

500 crossings a day means 180,500 illegal entries every year for many years. They receive free money, housing, and are allowed to work. A great achievement for the liberal regime.

This works for OLDdon - and the news media are doing the work. The more they broadcast this, the more migrants start heading for the borders.\nWho deals with the issue? Not OLDdon - BIDEN.\nSo, when OLDdon squats again in our White-House, the problem is so out of control he calls on ICE - looking like a savior to his blind followers.\n\nLet's do what we can, that is in our control - MID TERM ELECTIONS.\n\nThis is a big country, and county, state and local governments are already taking steps to thwart OLDdon's horrific policies.

When we immigrated to Canada we had to pass english exams, health checks and paid a lot of money. We came here and are grateful to be here. We did not come here to demand that our culture and religion be respected. We gave this up. If they can just walk across the border then all those who paid should get there money back.\nWe did not demand any help. We worked our buts off to make it work.

Migrants born and are grown up now are being removed! Who will be doing all of the work they fill all over the country? Children born and being raised will be ripped out from all they know and sent into hell. Disgusting and heartbreaking

There's no way this is gonna work. They have been trying this before I was born, and I'm 48 years old. Funds? Temporary Housing? Medical care while being confined? Not enough ICE officers?? Who's gonna do the jobs that they were doing? Americans commit more crimes than these people and there are way less boarder crossings. Give it a break.

Trump will let immigrants in to work in his hotels and golf courses. Along with working for his other rich buddies if they pay him enough.

There not in the U.S. to commit crimes, dont even make sense, why would a person go to the U.S. to work want to commit a crime? and then be deported, they came for work, instead of migrant, the U.S. needs to go after Americans who are the vest majority of criminals and gangs in gangland U.S.A, your deporting hard working mostly decent people and family's, they just exaggerate as to make stupid people believe these people being deported are real criminals, dont even try to deport criminals American to Mexico

It’s a little hypocritical that the Cubans are against immigrants when all and I mean all of them were helped with “ la ley del ajuste cubano” which helped them with money, food stamps, Medicaid, work as soon as they came into the country. Now they are against immigrants coming in? Disgusting

That Cuban woman describes a lot of minorities believe it or not. And it explains very well how even some slaves would cut deals with a plantation owner to snitch on plans to runaway etc. not because it meant they’d be free but simply cuz they’d maybe get to work in the house and not the field. \n\nA lot of people are very selfishly driven. And a lot of minorities have this crab in a barrel mentality, they will fight for scraps at the feet of white men who only want power for white, RICH men. Even poor whites think they’re gonna get in good with Trump, but Trump is a billionaire aligned with other billionaires like Musk and Murdoch and guess what, they have nothing in common with any common folk, black, white, Asian or Latino. Yet here we all are fighting like crabs in a barrel. Real dumb.

I was working DoorDash making about 300 and something dollars a day I was able to feed my family and pay my rent, then the legal immigrants came. They all had cars. They were all sitting inside of the parking lot waiting for orders and then I started to make about $60 for 12 hours of work I had to leave California and lost my place and could not afford anything!!! How did they get cars? How are they able to work here without proper documentation? Please get them out of here so I can get back to work. None of them could even talk to me and speak English.

There are not Millions of Immigrants who are also Criminals.... They need to stop that narrative....Most of the Immigrants come here to work , and have a better life for themselves, and many send money back home to help their Family..... It is Sad that many Latino's who Voted for Trump, voted against their friends and relatives best interest.....

Trump said he wants to start with the thousands of illegals that are known criminals. You clowns still don’t get it - your lying does not work and the people that voted should be legal citizens so they have nothing to worry about?? Right?? Trump won big time LOL!! Go hug your support pony and get over it!!

I work in a diner and all guys in the kitchen have tax id. Remember the money comes in...they never get return ,so that's a lot of money to lose.

When you are here illegally, you are ILLEGALLY breaking the law. We must enforce our laws. PERIOD. Enforce E Verify and strictly prosecute employers. If they can’t work they can’t eat and they will self deport!

Just buy em all houses with part of your paychecks , easy fix ! Oh, and give em some money every month so they don’t have to work .

Good luck and next elections the same topic to get wins ??? and still wont have no change, will have whites in the fields and cutting yards and doing the hard work they cant ????

People pay handlers and risk their lives to trek the long journey to a land they believe to be a dream. A country that is safer than their own, a place where you can do better with hard work, a country where your voice can be heard; but never would they imagine a hostile Christian country with hatred towards them. They thought Jesus had room for them; instead, they are getting a slammed door. Who needs the devil when Jesus's people is so non hospitable. No kindness. Just separating children from their parents. Judgement Day will come. Good luck! (Children can't be criminals, murders and rapists)

Remove all illegals who are criminals! Have heart on the ones who raised families here and do NOTHING but WORK HARD! I know so many Mexican illegals who I consider good people who worked hard and have helped a lot of people with the construction of their home. All they want is to provide for their families! Lord have mercy ❤

I guess you people didn’t learn did you? Mass Deportations best thing we have heard since yesterday when we were told trump won. If you cared about democracy like you claim, and you cared about American people like you claim, you would stand behind this deportation of illegal undocumented immigrants. They are here illegally. Keep up the good work your station will be shut down before you know it.

A low income single senior receives approximately $1600 a month. Of course they are going to be looking for work, and the number will be growing!!

Poland is where you want to be in 2025.\nThe gov didn't take crap. A lot of poles went to the UK for education and to work and then returned after Brexit with great experience. They are a bit racist and backwards at times but overall I'd take that over a full shaft of an entire country
