I think the reason we are in this situation is because middle class americans didn't want to do those jobs. |

After the last couple of months, I don't believe a word out of their mouths. When they say "violent" criminals, do they mean law abiding asylum seekers with "mom" tattoos? Or do they mean folks on TPS with a single traffic violation?
When we reward this behavior by applauding their "numbers," we are just enabling the Gestapo-like behavior. |
| Bravo Governor. If people have a problem with this feel free to bring these people into your homes for asylum. |
So no legal immigration either? |
In a lot of those places either food is very rxpensiv of standard of living is rvery low. And people don’t have big manicured laws. Americans don’t want that. Plus how old are you? I remember in the 1970: mo one had landscapers. People had crappy lawns with dandelions that they occasionally mowed themselves and cursed the whole time they did it. And dads did most of their own home repair, electrical. Plumbing etc. I’m all for people hiring documented workers for work. I hate the current system of underpaid under table workers. But Americans are in for a bad shock when we are suddenly thrust back to the 1970s! |
There are approximately 1.1 million people in the USA with final orders of removal. Meaning: they have already received full due process and have exhausted all appeals. But ICE only has 6k Removal Officers, whose job it is to find, arrest, and arrange the removal of those 1.1 million people (including getting “travel documents” for them, such as passports from their home countries). Do you know how long it takes to get a foreign passport from another country? |
So then, why are they deporting people who haven't had their day in court yet? Seems to me you invalidated your own point. |
| 1,000 so that's less than 10 per day since the start of this year. |
They're also deporting people they claim are dangerous terrorist gang members, to prisons that are run by people who take bribes from those gangs, while acknowledging that we have no mechanism for knowing if they'll stay there. Either, we're wrong about these people being gang members, in which case we've hugely violated their due process rights. Or, we're right about these people, and we've just facilitated their release so they can come back, thus putting America at risk. |
" think the reason we are in this situation is because middle class americans didn't want to do those jobs for subpar wages." Fixed that for you. Yes, that's now true. Kinda hard to have appropriate wages when you are constantly undercut by a gigantic black market of illegal labor. |
Isn't there a minimum wage? |

They should round up all the urban young men and if they can’t prove that they have a job or are doing something productive like being the full time carer for a disabled person or studying full time (and actually doing well) then they should bus them all to the fields that need work and keep them there. It’s quite simple really. Be productive or we’ll take you where you can be. |
NP. What about this do you not understand? 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." |
