Food chain shortages will be the first and most obvious. I only take comfort in knowing that those shortages won’t discriminate unlike our current administration. Those shortages will be just as painful on the brainwashed Trumpers who used migrants as scapegoats for their own personal failings.
When you have to bus your table at a restaurant. When you have to do your landscaping. When you have to mop the floors at the local school. When you have to climb on your roof to put down new shingles. When you have to pick your oranges to get a glass of juice. I could go on, but I hope you get it.
Maybe we shouldn’t tolerate people who get paid under table, undermining American workers. Why don’t you start there, David? Stop with this performative wailing.
So what's the immigration reform bill or what's the change to the immigration process that Trump fixed exactly? Because it's literally the same so what's the difference
I have a feeling a lot of people will be hurting. I will donate to food anks, and every one of my donations will have a democrat stamp on it so they know where it came from
It started in 2016, but I’m at the point where in my personal life, I really have no interest in being friends with or dealing with people who voted for or support him. I remain cordial, but my desire to spend time with them has gone to zero.
MAGA will probably say very soon, but the jobs these immigrants are taking, most of them anyway, are not jobs Americans have been willing to fill. So the farmers, construction companies and the others use the immigrants to fill positions no one here wants to do. Makes no sense to deport them. 1.
The jobs they do are important jobs, they spend money here for housing, food, fuel, they pay tax on these items, they contribute fiscally to the economy, and for that they are vilified. It just doesn’t make sense. They don’t vote, it is against the law for them to do so. 2.
If you can’t prove citizenship, then it is difficult to get any ID that can be used for voting. I had to produce a birth certificate, social security card and prove of residency just to get a renewal on my drivers license. That paperwork was scanned into a database and used for voter registration. 3
What is being done is nothing more than stoking fear in an attempt to make everything about us vs them. It is divisive and does nothing to make the country safer. All the rhetoric is smoke and mirrors to make it appear something meaningful is being done when it isn’t. Off my soapbox now.
Do you think ICE is purposely fucking this up? If they were removing more under Biden, then why would that change if FOTUS is pushing for more? What has changed that has them deporting less people?
Possibly under Biden, ICE operations were targeted. Under Trump, ICE is just grabbing as many people as they can.
Imagine a bowl full of Skittles. You either grab a random handful of 25, or you pick out 25 yellow ones. 25 Skittles either way, but you'll get fewer yellows if you grab a handful.
Awesome is not going to happen, just explaining to my family in upstate NY who receive electricity from Canada that their bills will go up. Me just sitting back and waiting for the voter regret to sink in. Huge amount of what I would call Nazis on social media clapping and cheering for ICE.
It’s not about the literal removal of people @davidpakman.bsky.social it’s about terror. This is political terrorism. Scare the people, make them comply, take over everything.
Millions of BOTS and fake videos have been released as US CITIZENS SUPPORTING TRUMP'S PLANS.
They say, we happily pay higher prices now to fix our rigged system.
Don't blame the people.
Dems had zero outreach to straight men & to red states.
Zero outreach. They blew a billion dollars on voters they already had.
Dems are just as responsible for Trump as Trump. There is no hope as long as Dems refuse to accept it.
I can't agree with that. He was a full blown no for me the first time he boasted about "grabbing pussies" and mocked the disabled reporter. Example after example of lies and hate. He told us exactly who he was. Then he was then convicted. They just didn't want to pay attention. I do blame them.
DOGE has invaded federal data centers illegally shutting federal employees out, stealing OUR personal data as sure as we've been hacked by cyber terrorists illegally authorized by the executive branch. Firing 2 million will put millions of private sector people out of work. STOP THE STEAL!!!!
It isn’t so much deportations it’s how they are being deported it’s evil. He is illegally flying military planes into other countries this is more than just the deportation of immigrants he has no reason for shackling and cuffing except for evil and provoking a reaction
It's already done. They saw clips from the stunts and they're good to go. On to the next thing. Looking to catch a trans person in the 'wrong' bathroom now.
As soon as all toilets in America are cleaned by Americans. As soon as all lawns are mown by Americans. As soon as all vegetables and fruit are harvested by real Americans… all will be great 😍😍😍 And for the jobs with the brainstuff they have these VISAs , right Mr. Musk?? 🤣🤣🤣
It's all a scare tactic, there is no way they are dporting 3million immigrants or even 100 000
they are doing this to put pressure on these people so it's easyer the expoit them.
The deportations will be performative. The removal of all protections for those targetted will be total. Thus allowing for even cheaper more vulnerable labour.
It will never be enough they could hit their mark tomorrow, but because that awesomeness can not be achieved in such a way, there will always be continued justification for it's perpetuation
My grandpa had Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and he stunk. He showered like once a week, and he was an alcoholic so the smell was BAD. The lack of awareness of how others perceive them extends to everything in their senior years when they can't keep up their mask of normalcy anymore.
What do you want from an orange or orangutan the man or shall I say the little boy who ran away from the draft five times wants to start several wars he should be removed from office one way or another so a Texas sign says
Happening now in my part of the world. “Residents of Vista, California, gathered to protest Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportations on January 31, 2025. The deportations have recently been implemented due to executive orders President Donald Trump has signed into law.”
I think up to the point they run out if money to do so. If Trump had half a brain he'd walk crooked, he already leans, that's just the dementia eating what few brain cells he has left!
Hi David I've heard some of the imigrants are now allowed to come back I'm serious they are, now back on the farms working they have visa s they are legal some more are coming back the court said they have to come back
Hi David this deportation is not right or fair trump is only targeting coloured imigrants not white imigrants and he is targeting non criminal imigrants to which is wrong something must be done
They are still. Deporting I've now heard that kristi noem has suggested that pregnant women and young children should be deported to they are not criminal s
Also. If he deports chrildren barron. Is a child of an imigrant Melania is an imigramt jd vance s kids are imigrants his wife is an imigrant ivanka s kids are imigrants as jerrad is an. Imingrant
Hi David I. Hope and pray that trump will. Stop. Going mad with the deportation he is racist he is only picking on. Coloured. He isn't picking on. The white
Hi David I live in the UK I. Really hope that the deportation stops really soon. How are the farmers coping as they need workers I really hope it stops soon
When you say awesome, I assume you mean expensive. Oh, and don't forget that these migrants also paid taxes (but received no benefits), so taxes need to increase to an awesome level as well.
Never, for as long as Trump can make excuses that low IQ individuals can't seem to challenge, the US is fast falling off the world stage as a global leader and into the status of global threat
So grabbing up hard working people who are NOT dependent on government payments and making them TOTALLY dependent on the government for their care, lodging, food, medical care, and other things. IS THAT Financially responsible?
The US should be removed from NATO every alley we have to turn their back on us. It’s time for this country to learn a lesson for dictators for as long as this country has been here and now the country has become a dictatorship the world should turn that back on us. It wouldn’t be hard.
When they get the opportunity to work the field early in the morning. With no vacation, low wages, no lunch, no medical insurance, no vision or dental and no sick days. Also, no HR.
Trump does not want any visitors, but as we do this in the US, Trump is invading Greenland with a hostile takeover by bullying. Literally trying to take their country..
We, the people, must rise courageously and stand against the constitutional crisis that endangers our supreme law. Sign now to unite for justice and democracy!
Do not be surprised how many Americans feel “awesome” just by seeing immigrants suffer even if their own lives decline economically. Worth the price for shockingly many and preferred versus seeing all lives, including their own, prosper.
Please spend some time reading about Curtis Yarvin, and Butterfly Revolution, notably in reddit. It explains many of 47s actions and is quite frankly scary.
The thing about mass deportations is that it is more about fear than anything. I have seen some reactions to fear already, far more than anyone actually having a problem on the local level.
As long as it will take Fox News to stop spreading lies, misinformation and propaganda. The US was formed and built by immigrants. I find the US rhetoric so dangerous for a country composed of only 58% non-hispanic white. That 42% is a massive force…
That is an excellent question. We need leaders (from both parties) that are willing to step up to help get us organized. Unfortunately, we do not have that now.
Those are great questions. I don’t have the answers. I’m voting with my dollar, spending as little as possible, and making lame duck calls to the powers that be. I’m a blue dot in a backwards ass red state
It won't happen. I can already tell you, if in Canada, our anti immigration changes have caused a bigger issue for our service, hospitality especially Healthcare system and agriculture... yall are fucked.
And that's with like... reasonable restrictions (some of us disagree but we'll just go with that for sake of argument) so creating an atmosphere of fear, indescrininatelybpicking up immigrants. Breaking constitutional law to remove birthright citizenship from Americans....
Yall are fucked.
The average “white” American feels their life is a lot more awesome when they see immigrants get deported. And when they see dei getting attacked and affirmative action getting rescinded.
It’s not about the benefit they get, it’s about the punishment others receive.
I am waiting to see how long it takes for the deportations to make things notably worse for the average American so they turn off Fox Propaganda Channel and start looking around for some real information.
Trump has been using scare tactics to make people afraid of immigrants. He lies about them being murderers and rapists. These white average Americans will be sorry when the immigrants are gone. Who's going to do their jobs? Prison labor?
The MAGAs ignorant as ignorant as Trump! How dare those people I’ll be polite and call them people. Actually, I think they’re nothing more than evil animals!!!
Except now their disability support couch is going to be pulled out from underneath them and they'll no longer have the support they need to live on. And this MAGA type will still blame Biden.

Elon Musk on the other hand is more of a threat than anyone in my lifetime. He must go!

And that is the point Mr Pakman is making.
This new administration just spent close to $1 million deporting only 80 immigrants, and bragged that it will make life better.
But they never gave credit when it happened in the past.
"Keep deporting until all scary brown people go bye bye. Donny do good job"
they are doing this to put pressure on these people so it's easyer the expoit them.
unfortunately this is the real issue/plan
