Every corporation, company, farm, business (including Mara-a-Lago) that is hiring undocumented workers should be required to have an onsite lawyer/advocate to help the workers get valid paperwork or face massive fines/penalties but then they would have to pay living wages. THAT IS THE REAL CRIME
I said this all along, it’s common sense. The last time the dumbass was in office, our store shelves were bare, no toilet paper to be found.
The next 4 years of hell, will leave us starving.
How many citizens will die due to Trump’s mistakes this time around?
While we’re on the topic of immigrants….
I peeked into the cesspool of a MAGA. They are sharing a post about reporting “Illegal Aliens in your neighborhood, at schools, at work, at church, at restaurants” and including a phone number for ICE.
This is horrible. MAGA will make this into a sport.
Of course they did. Because Trump 1 was a ratings bonanza. Horror show/train wreck every day. They figured Trump 2 would be a sequel for the ages, printing them money. So all the articles come out NOW.
I mean, I'm not even sure it would have made a difference. Seems a far greater percentage of the electorate than we should be comfortable with pays exactly zero attention to the news.
Almost no MAGA take their news from the mainstream media.Would it have come out before the election,they wouldn't have understood the economics,focusing on immigrants eating the pets instead.They are on X and Truth Social, listening to Rogan literally oblivious to the consequences of their actions.
Looks that way and it f*cking infuriating.It’s an abdication of their responsibility to inform voters with the most accurate and relevant info. It’s not by accident it’s by design.
the MEDIA sucks- the cult of #45 has Fox, New York Post, Epoch Times, Washington Examiner, Breitbart, Daily Wire, WSJ, Blaze, Twitter, OAN and the list goes on, there is nothing like it on the left- we have news. They have a sophisticated propaganda machine. https://newrepublic.com/post/188197/trump-media-information-landscape-fox
It was always the media. My neighbor, a high school graduate who said he hasn't read a book since, relies on right wing news shows. When I talked with him about Harris's plans for helping new homeowners, he told me that it would only go to minorities, because that is what TV told him.
My mom gets all her news from the Epoch Times and the Fox actors. She believes it all. My husband is from a former communist country, he always tells me the MAGA lies are so loud no one believes the truth. The right-wing propaganda machine is undermining our democracy.
I posted a lot of these stories on X, hope springing eternal maybe it owuld get through to some of the #magacult but they didnt care. They will soon, way after it is too late to fix

What is this "could" nonsense in the headline? It is certainly going to increase the cost of food. It's also going to reduce labor in other markets and drive down median wages.
If the deportations are effective enough, it could cause some serious food insecurity. I wish people were more engaged.
They don't even have to be all that effective to cause major food insecurity and food price surges, because all it will take is one even half-assed deportation to scare farm workers into hiding...
The deportations will also cost the Government to lose a lot of money they pay in but can never collect. it really is a loss all the way around to deport them. That is not even talking about the ethical points of it. JMO
As a former hospitality worker and Latina, I've seen so many instances of people here illegally working literal circles around some "homegrown" dude. I don't think America is ready for lazy white dudes to take over these jobs. I know I'm generalizing, but it's not going to be good.
They own it and will do it. Cost of living will go up. Then we go through another election cycle and Dems will clean up the mess. Their mistake is not announcing what these stupid policies cost us all.
Not could cause food insecurity, will cause because of food rotting in the fields. The farmers will probably try "pick your own" but they won't plant without laborers. We've done this before. Great Repatriation 1939. 40 to 60 percent deported were Americans with Spanish names.
Yes. The media takeover has been complete for a few years. It didn't happen the same way as it has happened in past fascist takeovers, but then there was no twitter, twitch, or youtube in the past. We have all been played. Now the media thinks they'll control the fascist. Ha. Stay safe, strangers.
I know! These media stories are absolutely infuriating. There's really no value in these stories now, but would have been immense value a few weeks ago.
FFS this is exactly why I am no longer watching @msnbc.com.web.brid.gy . Mika knows her values are her ratings. I hope all the Know your value women ask to be taken off the list
Honestly I have been mostly done with corporate media since 2016. I'm completely done now. They are useless, and it will be funny to watch our new dictator take away their licenses just when they thought they were going to use hum to print money.

They think Latinos will wait their turn to get deported. Keep showing up for work on the farm; Busing tables; Cleaning hotel rooms. As if they will not self deport.
Yes! Main stream media down played a lot of the information about the consequences of a tRump win. Now everyone will pay more and it will get much worse.
People buy more when news is bad. So if your a news org and you want to make extra money and ensure that your stock give you more dividends then releasing sad news after the election is probably the best way of doing it.
sure; in a sorrow-ass attempt on their part to mask thru too little / too late obfuscation their enormous role in ushering in the trump/GOP fascist horrors to come. Honest history will shred them to kingdom come for making trump fascism happen
Could? You say? Could? Dollars to donuts produce, meats, milk. EVERYTHING will go up. Who picks the produce. Or works in the processing plants. Duh, use your heads.
Prices for food and gas will go down by 2026. Undocumented workers are only one thing. Bigger issues would involve the improved economy, energy independence, and reciprocal tariffs will help too! Keep the faith Meidas!
Just this morning radio talk host was going on about deportation impact on restaurant $ & food production. I said to myself "Now you talk about it, a little late for this discussion!" WTF? No wonder people have such low opinion of media sources.
Funny how quickly they forget the multi-mile foodlines and mile-high unemployment, isn't it? Or the toilet paper shortage that had nothing to do with lack of goods, and all to do with the mass-hysteria that they had no impact on.
Watching media coverage this election cycle left me wondering if the media low key wanted Trump back in office because the chaos he creates is good for ratings.
The news media are absolutely partly to blame for TFG’s return. Instead of focusing on what he said out loud, they focused on Harris not giving enough 1x1 interviews. To now report that everything he said is bad is just BS. They needed to grow some balls.
Trump’s Tariffs/Migrant Labour Losses—ARE GOING TO RAISE COST OF LIVING!! Raise Costs; Food Production, Farming Manufacturing, Construction-The Equipment/Parts Imported, Vehicle Parts, Medicine/Medical Supplies/To Produce US Pharma! Jobs Loss-To Cut Costs,Downsizing,Fewer Projects
MISS BIDENOMICS?
Yeah. They call it neutrality, I'm sure. Because constantly headlining high inflation, even as it's coming down dramatically, is just reporting the news.
They all heard the sounds of money counters counting cash when he won the election — now they can pretend to clutch their pearls about his lack of decorum and respect for norms, all as they profit from the ensuing chaos.
I just do not see anything but economic tanking. You can not add 10% to 60% on imports and not go into a terrible recession. The price of ag and meat will probably go up when there are not enough workers. Hope not but can not logically see any result but inflation and recession.
Why were you not highlighting all these stories before election. You focused too much on Trump rather than promoting VP Harris policies and accomplishment.
Anyone with basic high school knowledge gets that tariffs are ultimately paid by the end consumer. The problem is the majority of the US is operating at a 6th grade level. And now he's trying to defund public education. It'll only get worse. 'Keep em stupid'
As an America who has worked in the field since I was 15 I can firmly say no majority of Americans are going working in the fields willingly. From pay, to work conditions, to expectations from land owner. No disservice to farmers, the work is hard and grueling. Deporting is doom for USA agriculture
The moron doesn't even know that they pick our produce in the scorching sun and are paid peanuts by the bushel. They process our chickens in locked rooms. They are gardeners and house maids. They are underpaid at everything they do. And nobody wants their jobs.
We have to make sure we are reaching the people that don't follow mediastouch because they still get their news from MSM or clips online. We all have to help get the Meidas news out there. We are the algorithm now and we have to educate in layman's terms on and offline. Get to work. Talk to people!
The cost of fuel, transportation, everything will sky-rocket. We’re in for a bumpy spiral into chaos that will cost many lives and livelihoods of most Americans!
Apparently many forgot that prices skyrocketed as soon as Biden was sworn in that IMO the 1%+ set to pressure his “Tax the Rich” policy and never let off the pedal awaiting a MAGA return to keep the masses angry. Most vote w/ their pocketbook ‼️
It’s the drama! Drama sells headlines! Doom and gloom sells headlines!
They really don’t care about true journalism! Happy and joy do not sell headlines!
Just the fact that folks *need* to be told that undocumented immigrants pick our fruits and vegetables is astounding. Do Trump supporters think a magic fairy does this work? Georgia tried this in 2011 and crops rotted in the field. Prisoners didn't want to do the work. https://www.al.com/wire/2011/10/crackdown_on_illegal_immigrant.html
When Desantis tried the same thing in Florida, workers left construction sites en masse. There was no one left to do the actual work of constructing because of the threats of recrimination. They don't get just how much work immigrants actually do
That's exactly what happened. They wanted Trump back because he's good for ratings. But they should be careful what they wish for, since Trump, oddly enough, wants to shut them down.
And ALL farmers that voted for Trump will ultimately suffer with no laborers. I only feel sorry for the rest of us when fresh produce is in short supply!
Yes! True enough. Fascists steal, lie, and cheat others out of vital resources. Already strapped humanitarian organizations will be the only life line poverty stricken people will have left. Our church's food pantry already feeds hundreds of residents.
Yes, they wanted him to win so they could get people to click on the never ending supply of articles like this one. They wanted the train wreck, so they could report on it and profit off of it. Full stop.
From before sunup to sundown, bending over and pulling vegetables from the ground and picking berries, broccoli and lettuces from low shrubs and patches in the hot sun with no breaks.
IMO, it’s just a matter of seconds before the (we thought were legitimate) mass media networks & #TalkingHeads join the #MorningJoe folks & give the WeWantRatings, too, invitations &, prbly allow #GOPTrumpest to dictate the script. #RachelMaddow #NicoleWallace #JoyReid , etc
Trumps already mobilized the national guard for mass exodus. He will call them in to quell protests, and plant instigators who start riots, so the military will roll on our own people. Because of something HE started. 🫳
My boyfriend told me this: The military hates Trump. They are conditioned by their training to be blindly loyal to their own, and will not look kindly on their commanding officers being replaced by incompetent trump picks. Top Military officers like John Kelly and George Mattis currently hate him.
No, he is not on Twitter. But twitter is also not emblematic of life. Military men support strong government, but that’s when they don’t have superiors that hate Trump.
Again, that will not go down well with the military. They’ve been conditioned to be loyal to their own, hence the reticence to get other branches of the government involved with army matters. I know someone in the Marines. They will not appreciate their superiors being shafted.
The officers will get thrown in jail for not following orders, but they are only allowed to follow lawful orders... the lines get blurred in emergency mandated situations.
Too many will blindly follow thier orders our of fear of reprobate though
Is it legal to use the military against the own people? Here in germany it is not. Only in case of a disaster or something. History told us, that it's not a good idea.

In a scammer's game of three card monte, Trump is the dealer, the media is the accomplice who "wins." The rest of us are the marks, other than the billionaires who are moving among the marks, picking their pockets.

Anything for likes and engagement and profit.
I spent enough time trying to educate them on X. I have had enough ignorant MAGA. I came here for some sanity, so I heavy on the "block feature"
X hates us.
We love Democrats and Putin loves Kamala
Like the Google searches for, What are tariffs? And, Can I take my vote back?
MISS BIDENOMICS?

Now they've harmed themselves and the only remedy is making him so wounded from the offset, he's toothless.

I was trained in passive resistance in the 1970s.
We need to harp on those stings as the kite string gets tuant.

Has to be done under an emergency mandate. And all the Rs are going to just roll over and let it happen. 🤷🫤
