We’re being destroyed by our own frustrations. The only way a nation or society fails is when people no longer care about humility, truth, or growth. Without growth, there’s no redemption. Without truth, there’s nothing but lies and confusion. Without humility, everyone thinks they’re king.
Everyone in charge in Seattle is doing immigrants and wagers dirty. Taxpayers in MA would sue if their municipality took a special tax fund passed for affordable housing and moved it over to basically cover the general fund deficit.
I find myself asking if small business wants to pull the ladder up behind them and exclude others from access and opportunities. Because being pro-business used to mean being pro-community, pro-housing, pro-transit. Is the business community making movie theatre mistakes? Alienate the consumer base?
Pro-business in Seattle now means pro-Amazon and pro-real estate. Some places look at Amazon with envy. Seattle learned the hard way what happens when a profit-at-all-cost behemoth moves into your core and throws its political weight around.
America isn't great, American individuals and governments have lived above their means by accumulating debt and most have still lived miserable lives despite it. Free the world.
Who is washing dishes in restaurants? Reroofing homes? Digging ditches? Hacking bunches of celery? Doing landscaping, construction, commercial painting, and so on.
?
Young white men are too soft, lazy & entitled to do these hardworking, bedrock-of-America jobs?
Americas Indigenous aka Paleo-Indians (Hunter/gatherers) arrivd via land bridge approx20,000yrs ago, so every1s an immigrant here, but they were the 1st & only people here, for 18,508yrs &honestly, they should’ve built a wall 2keep out rapist, murderers, thieves, pedophiles, human traffickers IJS 🤷♀️
USA is already good enough,Great again is a false proposition. because the “greatest” 50s USA got McCarthyism,not individual rights and freedom of speech.
To all MAGA: report to work at the crop fields. Benefits: 1) getting jobs back from immigrants who stole your job, 2) low wages, 3) allowed to drink water -but no runs for lunch or to the bathroom until the end of a 12 hour shift, and 4) NO insurance. Rápido MAGA! Accepting applications pronto!!!
I figured MAGA voters would have regrets once they had to pay $20 a pound for lettuce and experience similar price hikes for fresh produce, and then I realized that these people don't eat fresh vegetables - they probably think lemons are a communist plot, so this won't change their minds. Sigh.
That’s right you have to fight back a lot of people like to run into the closet. These people have the right idea fight back if you don’t fight, you can’t win.
Absolutely 💯
Our country is a land of, for and including immigrants. It's the foundation our nation was built on.
We really have some stupid, cult-following politicians, and some pretending to be politicians.
As I haven’t got a drop of Indian🪶 blood🩸every single one of my ancestors were immigrants - mostly Western European Imperialists - since 1722.
As you’ve no doubt surmised - yeah I like immigrants😎🗽🇺🇸
When the world shut down because of Covid, I remember looking out of my window on 5th Avenue and seeing only immigrants delivering food, medicine, and other goods ordered by people who were hunkered down safely in their homes. We called them essential workers then. Now, we call them illegals.
Many essential workers died during Covid, as they were not as well protected as they should have been & a fair proportion of them were from ethnic minorities & lived in poor overcrowded housing.Yet, they saved the lives of many. But Farage & his ilk have very short memories about such heroic people.
Illegal Aliens make America lawless and criminal. That's why America only deports Illegal Aliens back home where they are subject to the jurisdiction thereof; we don't deport legal immigrants who have a green card or who have become law-abiding naturalized citizens. The difference is quintessential!
Key word is illegal. Follow the process. I know plenty of people who are from Mexico and other places. They followed the process. Every country has laws. U.S. is nice exception. I can't go to other countries and over stay my welcome. I have to abide by their laws. 🤷♂️
👍🎯 So true.So many examples:Tesla,Einstein,Sergey Brin,Madeleine Albright ,Pulitzer,Pichai,Jan Koum,Jerry Yang,Max Levchin,John Collison,Pierre Omidyar,Musk,Henry Kissinger,Kamala Harris,Ted Cruz,Joseph Stiglitz,etc👍If I had mentioned Nikola Tesla, that would have been enough. He is the best example
To be fair it’s not immigrants they hate, it’s brown and black people. Let’s not pretend this is really about immigrants. It’s still a great message of support, don’t get me wrong. Just like it’s not “Christian” nationalism. It’s white nationalism. It’s about genocide and control.
they do & done more than that. they help build & feed America. They're still doing that! what did or has Trump done for America?
oh that's right, gave
tax breaks to the rich, rename mountains, let criminals free, chose unqualified people to key positions doesn't make America great. just the opposite
Let's face it America. The original Caucasian, non Native people who came here were not born here. Simple fact.
If you are not full blooded Native American Indian, your ancestors were immigrants.
What about all these fit people at gyms, jogging in the neighborhoods, the athletes. All in good shape to do hard, strenuous work, for absolutely nothing.
I’d like to see Trumps kids out there working in the fields, meat packing facilities and slaughter houses, they haven’t had to work for a damn thing there whole privileged lives
Right, meanwhile our food is literally rotting in the fields.
But by all means continue to flex your muscles while our groceries prices are becoming out of reach for some of us.
It's NOTHING to the rich, they can afford it.
america was built by european immigrants. they wanted to flee from their aristocrats. thats a fact. americans got no culture and history. they were made to vconsume and to destroy
And the techbros use H1B visas to hire from overseas for positions in the US instead of US tech workers so they can pay them less and work them longer hours.
Everyone who jumped on that poorly thought out anti-immigrant bandwagon is about to find out how the underground economy affects everyone and guess who is going to pay for this xenophobic stupidity? Not Mexico, we will! Seriously, if the people can’t see it, let ICE raid Merdelargo.
I like people from all countries and backgrounds. I love all of Central and South America that I have visited: Mexico, Costa Rica, Peru, Colombia and Brazil. I am so sorry you are going through this. It’s hard for me, too.
Unless you are of Native American ancestry, we are all foreigners. Even the Mexican Indians were here in America in the South and Southwest long before the Europeans.
(You may want to qualify that statement - I presume you live in a blue county - because a lot of Washington is an embarrassment, including the heavily Latino cities of Yakima and Tri Cities)
Your map is off a bit. Yes western wa. has been for republicans but the state is majority democrat. Check the voting records.Tacoma is on the hit list for ICE. There is no perfect state but I’ve lived in 7 states and this is in the whole the best state I’ve lived in.
It’s a Republican map showing of course false info. I’m just below you in WA . We here are fighting the orange mass(ass). The correct map shows the mostly rural areas being Republican and that is not enough to counter the very populated areas. We don’t want orange bleeding north either.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
America won’t die under trump & his Nazi tactics, & goose stepping bravado. It’ll make friends & allies rethink why they’re that to begin with. If it’s America first $$ for trump, why not their own people first $$ too? Immigrants are the leavening America always needed. Now it’ll soon be flatbread!
I always wonder how Native Americans feel about all of this?
Even to the point where the president is applying so much fake tan/make up it looks like he's going full on redface. It must be galling to watch this all unfolding before their own eyes.
America is a sovereign nation with established borders and immigration laws.
Americans do not deserve to be subjected to never ending, always increasing waves of immigration that big corps can use to under cut the domestic labor & working class.
Sisyphos live adventure action has started. Enjoy the flight with the american air force ! comfortable return with train guaranteed. new jobs created by the glorious leader of the US.
Ask your nearest cartel for the new human smuggler job.
Our economy is going to take a big hit because of Donald Dump's fixation to get rid of illegal aliens. Perhaps MAGA can pick the crops that will be rotting in the fields. Perhaps MAGA can take construction work when the temperature is over 100. Perhaps they can take on meat plant work and more.
Unfortunately, you can only deport people to their known country of origin. The insurrectionists are definitely home grown and likely have never left the country, so theres be nowhere to deport them to
Official definition of 'insurrectionists' will be politically altered. The Jan 6 'peaceful tourists' were sent love & hugs by Trump. Now actual peaceful protestors will be 'insurrectionists' &l be met w/ military response.
Also...Fed employees are going to be 'going through some things' apparently.
ICE agents have stated on national TV that will be picking up Americans in their sweeps.
That is illegal.
Local police need to be forced to do their jobs.
Remind the police who they work for and that they cannot ignore other law enforcement breaking laws.
Republicans want illegals to come here, hire them, then cheat and steal from them. Persecution keeps them from complaining/asking for raises. Illegal alien kids as young as 10 work at fast food restaurants. Paid in cash, less than the minimum wage, w/FICA withheld, which their employer pocketed.
In the 1980's, Democrats proposed that anyone who hired an illegal alien pay a $5000 fine per employee. Ronald Reagan and Newt Gingrich blocked the law. Is it the fault of desperate poor people looking for a living for themselves and their families or corrupt employers, who cheat them out of wages?
I suggest someone enact asset forfeiture in response to hiring undocumented workers. Seize the company and sell it off.
Why? It will solve two problems very quickly.
1) Reichpublicans will back off and begin supporting immigration reform.
2) the right will go all in on outlawing asset forfeiture.
The first time I landed in New York (~35 years ago... ) there was a sticker at the airport on a wall saying "New York made in Italy" with an American flag fading into the Italian and back to the American. 😁
It will be interesting to see large new home contractor companies crying in the morning when shingles have no roofers, frames are just piles of wood, drywall is a wall of dust and paint is drying in the can.
Whining will start before noon tomorrow. 😂
My to mention cheap produce and meat products skyrocketing prices. No white MAGA morons will pick fruit in 110 degree weather or slog around meat packing plants covered in beef or chicken blood. Eggs are the least of their problems now.
Hmmmm, they were mostly white though, isn’t that the point? Bottom line, all except native Americans are immigrants or offspring of them, this is about making America white again.

But 👑🍊 wants people to see he's doing it. It's all for show.
Everything that man does is for show.
Let’s get a bunch of people from “not here” to do work we don’t want to do.
Should you have them pick cotton too?
This is the EXACT same economic argument that the south had for slavery in the 1800’s.
Sickening
Unclear what happens when let millions mostly young males in unvetted. Some slogans slip off tongue with out much reflection.

immigrants truly make America great and they always have.

If you are not full blooded Native American Indian, your ancestors were immigrants.
Farmers will try to hire workers off the street, @ $20 hour. most will only last an hour before they are gone.
If you want tomatoes, plant them yourself, or give up on salads and veggies altogether.
It's why they hire them, because they can get away with abusing them.
But by all means continue to flex your muscles while our groceries prices are becoming out of reach for some of us.

But MAGA does not consider white immigrants as “immigrants” 🤡🤡🤡

Just like up here in BC, where we like to think we're very progressive, there are areas that are very regressive (e.g. Kelowna). It's very sad to see.
Even to the point where the president is applying so much fake tan/make up it looks like he's going full on redface. It must be galling to watch this all unfolding before their own eyes.

It’s the process of immigration that is the problem.
People want legal immigration.
But I also know every immigrant group has been discriminated in some way. Some more than others. That’s also a problem.
In fact every living thing on Earth is a visitor
Seems to be a haven for them.
Ask your nearest cartel for the new human smuggler job.

Not deported but straight to prison for treason.

Also our Native American population that this government has continued to step on since the colony days!

Deportation = immigrants hide; Immigrants hide = immigrants don't work; no work = no pay; no pay = hungry & desperate; hungry & desperate? = immigrant crime wave.
Crime wave = incarceration; incarceration = overpopulation; well, we know the rest
It's so bizarre that people vote against their own interests. Including Mexican-Americans.
