Amazing. Source familiar with Trump's deportation plans admits he's likely to carry out removals selectively to spare parts of the economy that rely on migrant labor. As I've argued (see below), this process will likely get corrupted.

Though, going after say, CA's agri sector raises prices for everyone too. So I think it'll be raids in blue states affecting local, say, health care aids or constructing. 🤨
Like where I live
to your thread
Was it all a scam?
Probably…🙁
so it's just another blatant racist trope.
looking for sanity in haystack of batshit will only kill your soul.
we're on the same side and ikwym.
everything he says is a lie or intended to get his racists riled up. this is both!
In 2022, more than a half million immigrants worked in the construction industry, according to a report by the American Immigration Council and Texans for Economic Growth.
Nearly 60% of that workforce was undocumented.
The problem is his personal Goebbels, Stephen Miller, who aims to Nazi'fy America.
Miller, though? That guy is crazy scary
It’s an absolute.
Don't think one moment that he will leave anything to be honest and transparent in the government.
More like he's gonna have to sacrifice one of his own, irrespective of the state color, if he wants any non-ignorable optics .
It will be Shawshank on steroids.

Also, service work impacts economy as much if not more.
it's gonna be big splashy raids to grab headlines and they'll just round up everyone in the factory or field, regardless of their immigration status.
it's going to be extremely ugly and unjust.
