It’s more of a roundup than it is a “raid.”

Yep -- don't you love the editorializing right in the headline as well as the body of the story?

While I agree that the numbers are a drop in the bucket, which is about all that can be done at this point, considering the conditions that ICE operates in - but, hopefully, it will have the effect of driving them deeper underground, maybe even deep enough to stop them from coming out and voting in 2020.

Pelosi read the illegals their rights to refuse ICE entry during her weekly address. Presidential wannabees walking deportees back in.
More Epstein victims n dem voters. We are being relaced by non citizens who reward employers by taking pay in cash.
Stop the underground emplyment and get harsh on business owners.

Exactly. What they did to President Trump’s attorney was a “raid.” Actually more of an assault.

If I lived in your neighborhood, I’d cut your grass.

A somewhat overweight middle aged guy here.

I mow two lawns from time to time. What’s one more?

One day I hope to be rid of one grass cutting operation if and when the old house sells.

“Stop the underground employment and get harsh on business owners.”

Agreed! Hoping that’s in PDJT’s arsenal next term.

When I bought a restaurant in 2000 the dish washer was Mexican. Not speaking any Spanish except the nasty words, I had an ASA brother who was fluent come translate for me.

I asked to see the workers ID and documentation of his being allowed to work here.

He showed me some ID card issued by the Mexican embassy.

I told him that if he can't produce a Visa or green card don't come back.

He did not return.

His replacement was a US Citizen. That scum bag is now in Prison for multiple rapes of underage girls.

The Mexican worked hard, (or so the previous owner told me.)
The American scum bag was lazy and not worth the minimum wage.

“The strategy is to make it so unpleasant and difficult for them that hey deport themselves. Sowing the seeds of fear in the criminal element is part of a multi-prong approach.”

I can see that, too. Anything is worth a try at this late date. :)

I’m getting kind of tired wearing that sign taped to my back by Democrats, RINOs, Never-Trumpers and Globalists that says, ‘Kick me! I’m a Taxpayer!’

When in college, I worked in restaurants, and as a cocktail waitress at a big tourist trap supper-and-nightclub-that was in the early 70’s, and even then there were way too many illegals/mojados among the kitchen staff, bar-backs and bus help.

Fine the s*** out of the employers found with illegal workers, and get employers to hire American young people in high school, trade school and college-they need the money and experience in the world of work just like when I was one of them-it would also be a good thing to then boot some millenials out of mommy’s basement and offer them those restaurant, hospitality industry and other service jobs in the real world-it is long past time to stop hiring illegals at the expense or American workers-kill the CoC and elite cheap labor express...

Put up a few flyers in your neighborhood

TIP: Don't write it in cursive.

So then, it’s obvious that restaurants are hiring illegals. Looks like I don’t go to Mexico Palace this weekend.

I work 70 hours a week. My cell is dying, I have three jobs today, spotify upgrades me, now nothing works. I totaled some car last week, someone close to me had a stroke, and I got a crazy lesbian in ever met fixated on getting me removed from one of my jobs. I didn’t even know she was a non normal untill... whatever. It involved my peaches and blue cheese on her plate or something.

I can’t call my retards, get a new phone and whatever. So I do the three jobs alone. It is fine with them. One of them is sleeping on my bed. My wife. That work thing is just ‘not happening’ for her today. I fired her, my boss keeps making her not go away. So she will sleep, and I will split my pay with her.

Meanwhile... I can’t get time to buy another phone because their jobs need to get done. Another excuse use these nitwits can use to explain why they don’t show up for work. It is all me, one must understand. “my decision” I was told by a non worker I split my labor capital with.

I think it is a sunday.. when I get a new phone I will know what day it is. I think I may have an open opportunity to shopping, like on a Tuesday coming up. At some point, I will loose it, and get plenty time to shop. These azy turd have meme and conventional wisdom on their side.

But I am the only one with cash. Buy a coffee with your wisdom. I ain’t got an extra dime.. And I have a job in an hour. I will reorganize for season, and fire them all. I am such a nice man, and they were all told when hired to not mistake my compassion for stupid. Life lesson for free. Go away from myself. I will give you a $100 Bill to go away, if you are annoying enough. Last moment of contact.

100 sheetpans at one business, one hundred trash barrels at another, dry/wet mop a consignment store and lobby... then a movie theatre after midnight.. all alone. My children need sleep. This structure frees me up to trash and vacuum some other unit I missed last night. Sleep my child, and dream of us paying you. Can’t even remember who did not show up last night. He is fired too.

My retards are high maintenance. They would all piss on my corpse, but they are too lazy.

It is discouraging...
