Careful with these kind of stories - they go against the idea that illegals are coming here to sit around and collect welfare.
Posting pictures of guys working and stories about workers being arrested is sort of counter to that narrative. Also adds to the idea that American businesses are still too willing to sellout to illegals.
I’d be more impressed by a headline like “ICE rounds up 200 illegal aliens collecting welfare”
I slightly worry Trumps end game is to sell us immigration - because we are at “full employment” and need workers...or something along those lines.

Thy shouldn’t be here period. All they do is suppress wages and perpetuate the welfare cycle of dependency.
They do both. You can work and get paid under one false identity, then collect benefits under another. It’s not an either/or situation.
Local paper used to have weekly welfare fraud stories then they stopped covering it about 10 or so years ago.
How many of the 115 that were “employed” and getting paid under the table do you think are filing and paying withholdings to a legit SSN?
I will bet you a very large piece of chalk that every single one of them is ripping off America in more ways that either of us can count or even recognize.
The story I heard on the radio said that many of them had stolen SS numbers or SS numbers from deceased American citizens. So in addition to them being here illegally, there’s that.
