"Once the visa-holder arrived, they didn’t work for the meat plant but moved elsewhere. The meat plant then hired illegals in their place."

That's interesting. Some of the lifelong residents of Postville (objective bystanders) said that eastern Europeans also worked in the plant before moving away for other jobs.

The Jewish presence in Newport, R.I., dated to the arrival of fifteen Sephardic Jewish families in 1658. In 1677 they bought land for a burial ground. George Washington wrote a letter to their "Congregation" in 1790.

Granted, much has changed since 1790. Back then, Presbyterians were also old-fashioned in their way.
