This is only the beginning.

If you are in the U.S. illegally, you just have to go back.

Yeah, you can do your own roofing and landscaping from now on. So dumb!

So you're PRO illegal labor and PRO undercutting of middle class blue collar jobs for Americans? Such a winning strategy.

dp... I'm not for pro illegal labor, but let's be honest.. American workers don't want hard farm jobs or meat cutting jobs for $16/hour. It's back breaking work. And American farmers aren't go to pay $30/hour for that job. And you, the American consumer, are not going to pay $5 per apple. You were already complaining about $8/egg carton.

Most illegal immigrants work in agriculture/farming, construction or lawn services. Guess which party those business owners identify with?

Those business owners thought it wouldn't affect them. So stupid.

Your argument is:

“but who will pick the cotton?”

Is your argument: "We don't need fresh fruits or vegetables"?

Why is it that every single other country in the world with far lower levels of illegal immigration are perfectly capable of picking and growing their own food? Look at countries like South Korea to Japan, which have almost zero illegal immigration compared to the US. Somehow they're capable of producing enough food at very affordable prices that are often cheaper than even the US. How is it that they're capable of doing all of that without hordes of illegal immigration? You're just regurgitating big AG lobbyists' talking points who want to undercut American labor in order to drive up their stock prices.

Those countries import a lot of foods (SK 70%; JP 60%). In contrast, we import 15% of our food.

And with our current trade war started by your illustrious leader, imported foods would be pricey.

Also, wages in those countries for farm workers are super low (< $10/hour). Should we pay Americans $7.50 for back breaking farm jobs?

Also, those countries have cheaper healthcare and higher taxes. Should we do that here?

I think people who think we can pick and choose policies that work in other countries without looking at it holistically are naive.

Right, no landscape or roofing work took place before the borders were opened in January 2021.

Borders were not “opened” in 2021.

Lying trash.

Biden’s southern border was wide open.

most illegal immigrants are visa overstays.

Having stated that, I also think Biden was dumb about the border. When he got elected in 2020, I stated that he needed to address the border issue with some urgency. Instead, he waited for 3 years, and only after his approval ratings went down the toilet.

Lost opportunity, and now we have the Idiot in Chief who has caused chaos in the economy and markets.

It was Trump who trashed the immigration bill that gave adequate funding to immigration courts and enforcement. And the GOP followed.

Sure let's just make up stuff.

Given the lack of due process the reality is they aren't adequately determining who is and isn't following legal processes and who is and isn't a criminal. That's what due process is.

It is you who is making stuff up.

Arizona constructed this barrier; Biden sued Arizona to remove it and leave the area open (WFO).

That barrier is a joke. It's actually counter productive to construct such a poor barrier.

Exactly, but to the PP above, immigrant = illegal.

Given their record, I'm just worried that they will deport people without due process, or even people who actually have the right to stay, temporarily or not. Immigration law is extremely complex, and you can't just round up people like cattle and put them on the next flight out.

Not to mention they're often sending their American citizen children (some of whom have health problems). And they are deporting people to indefinite detention in prisons and war zone countries.

Exactly! I don't know how many more times these morons need to hear it. No one is against deporting people who actually need to be deported. Previous presidents have done plenty of that. Denying due process and rounding them up like cattle is the issue.

Speaking from the U.S. Department of Justice, Bondi praised the task force’s efforts, attributing the operation’s success to the Trump administration’s renewed focus on immigration enforcement.

President Trump gave us one directive: make America safe again,” Bondi said. “We are so grateful to you, Governor, for everything that you’ve done... because we are coming for you if you are here illegally, you are committing crimes in our country.”
Governor Youngkin detailed the makeup and mission of the task force, which includes state police, corrections officers, and federal agencies such as the FBI, DEA, ATF, and U.S. Marshals. According to Youngkin, those arrested include members of MS-13, the Tren de Aragua gang, human traffickers, and drug traffickers.
“These are violent criminals who shouldn’t be in this country to begin with,” Youngkin said. “Over the last two months [the task force] has been targeting violent criminals who are illegally here, and we just surpassed 1,000."
Youngkin also took aim at Arlington County, criticizing its self-declared sanctuary status and accusing it of obstructing the task force’s operations.
“I want to challenge jurisdictions like Arlington County,” he said. “You should be part of the solution as opposed to standing in the way... we are going to continue to make sure that Virginians are safe.”
Bondi added that the effort reflects a new "gold standard" for collaboration between federal, state, and local law enforcement, contrasting it with what she described as failures by previous administrations.
“Our borders were wide open. These violent gang members and human traffickers were coming into our country,” she said. “Crime has consequences.”
The two leaders encouraged other states to follow Virginia’s model and join the broader effort to curb undocumented immigration linked to criminal activity.
“Help us make America safe again,” Bondi concluded.

Youngkin sounds like an idiot here. Arlington County is the safest place in the country. Fairfax is close. Whether they should be sanctuary cities or not, whether they are sanctuary cities or not, they are tremendously safe. They're not the problem, at all, and the governor should know better.

This. I know the MAGAs don't care about the constitution other than 2a though.

The 4th circuit court ruling on the Garcia case, written by a very conservative Federalist Society, justice, and with unanimous opinion, was eye opening and very concerning.
