The Left: " Employers Are Responsible For Illegal Immigration"

This is hysterical and classic Trump.

Trump claims he won two Nobel peace prizes before correcting himself during rambling rally speech

2020 Nobel peace prize went to UN World Food Programme

www.independent.co.uk

Donald Trump claimed he had won two Nobel peace prizes before correcting himself during a rambling campaign rally.

The president heaped praise on his international diplomacy skills and falsely took credit for the awards at the event in Londonderry, New Hampshire.

Mr Trump boasted that he had scooped one of the prestigious awards for his work in negotiating peace between Serbia and Kosovo.

He then claimed he had been given another for “something else” and insisted he should also get one for his work in Syria.


“Serbia and Kosovo, so we signed a deal, so they gave me a prize for that, they gave me a Nobel Prize for something else, they should give me a Nobel Prize for what I did in Syria," said Mr Trump.

Watch the video. You'll die laughing.

Prosecuted and raided are two different things

He was also able to get the largest penalty on record in one of those cases

Meanwhile xiden’s policy is to allow hiring of illegals

Nope..legislation was passed in the democratic house addresses Hiring illegals. Under trumps ORDERS, the gop house REFUSES TO EVEN BRING IT UP FOR A VOTE.
FACT.

Yes trump admin did prosecute people who knowingly hired illegals

11 companies is not enough to scare the other 900,999 who are doing it. Wake up.

It wasn't until half way through Trump's presidency that he finally got rid of his own illegal employers. And he only did it because the heat was on him.

If Trump raided/prosecuted 11 companies, that's just to show you and say "look at what I'm doing".

You don't know the facts

The US Labor Department’s wage enforcement arm assessed nearly $26 million in fines against employers in 2023, the highest on record in a decade.

The Wage and Hour Division, in charge of policing federal minimum wage, child labor, overtime, and other labor laws, concluded 20,215 compliance actions and recovered about $212.3 million in back wages in FY 2023, data from the agency show. That’s roughly on par with the 20,422 enforcement actions and roughly $213.1 million in back wages collected in FY 2022, but also marks the lowest enforcement year since at least 2013, according to the agency’s records.

Despite the lower number of cases, the agency still fined employers a 10-year-high of $25.8 million in civil monetary penalties for violations of federal labor laws in 2023. Businesses hit with those fines include a Subway restaurant operator in San Francisco and Wisconsin-based Packers Sanitation Services Inc., both of which were accused of illegal child labor, among other claims.

FACT.

Could it be Republicans defunded this agency?

The past year’s enforcement numbers provide some insight into how budget constraints may be impacting the agency’s enforcement work. They also underscore calls made by Democrats and worker advocates that the DOL’s worker protection agencies need more resources to carry out the agency’s mission—especially as the department takes on new initiatives like its child labor exploitation task force.
“There is a budget issue here, Wage and Hour is severely understaffed,” Catherine Ruckelshaus, general counsel at the National Employment Law Project, said in reaction to the data.

Like the IRS. Republicans cut staff so agents couldn't go after rich tax dodgers.

 

[hadit]

Why to you refer to the Vice President of the USA as "Cackles"????

I think we should start referring to Dumb Donald as "Spanky" since he likes women to spank his bad bottom with a magazine, or "Tiny Trump" - a guy that nobody will fuck for free.

People refer to him with far worse names than that. I refer to Cackles by that name because of her bursting into hysterical laughter when she can't answer a question or doesn't know what to say next. It is very dismissive because she was given one job, to oversee border security, and messed it up so bad Quid Pro Joe had to beg Republicans for help.

Report: Trump Happily Employing Undocumented Workers Amid ICE Raids

Trump Organization fires more undocumented workers

The Trump Organization has fired more undocumented workers at their properties before the end of the year

www.cbsnews.com

The Trump Organization has fired more undocumented employees at properties including the Trump Winery in Virginia just before the end of the year, attorneys advising and representing recently fired staffers told CBS News. The firings come nearly a year after a purge of undocumented staffers at Trump golf clubs.

The firings at Trump Organization properties were first reported by The Washington Post. Trump Organization and Trump Winery did not respond to a request for comment by CBS News.

Civil rights lawyer Anibal Romero, who represents many of the undocumented workers fired by the Trump Organization in the last year, condemned the Trump Organization's treatment of its undocumented employees in a statement to CBS News.

"The Trump brand is built on cruelty. He separates kids from parents at the border, he uses language that incites hatred and violence against immigrants. The company makes a profit on the back of immigrants while building his anti-immigrant politics base at same time," Romero said.

At least seven Trump Winery employees were fired because of their non-legal immigration status, according to Romero. He said he believed the organization waited to fire undocumented workers until the end of the year so that it could profit from a year's worth of labor.

All done to foster the increased income of the rich prick donors that the gop is indebted to.

In other countries that have a problem with illegals they fine employers who hire them. It works well. Most illegals will self-deport within six months. Those who remain have to be rounded up and deported.

Remember, Trump had hundreds of undocumented foreign workers working in his resorts and hotels even the first year of his presidency.

Fining employers has worked out well.. since there's no need for rough treatment. KSA had a terrible problem 12 years ago. It was resolved within a year.

For farm labor the government issues temporary visas so we have people to pick peaches and work as landscapers etc.

Trump isn't very bright, but I suspect he wanted the wall as a monument to himself. Remember he wanted his likeness on Mount Rushmore .

Trump, will get his memorial embossed in this emblem. Maybe they’ll make it orange just for him.

it's been against the law to knowingly hire illegals for YEARS....XIden has ignored the law, and refuses to prosecutte....we don't need new legislation making it against the law, it already was. Xiden policy, as I highlighted already, on day one, was to not enforce that.

Xiden's policy on day one was not to enforce the law, and not go after employers that knowingly hire illegals...I literally provided you a link to the memo from the Sec of Homeland Security.

The administration’s top immigration enforcement official on Tuesday said his agency will vastly step up crackdowns on employers who hire undocumented immigrants – a new front in President Donald Trump’s hardline immigration agenda.

Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Tom Homan spoke at the conservative Heritage Foundation and was asked whether his agency would do more to target not just undocumented workers, but their places of work.

Homan said he has instructed Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the investigative unit of ICE, to potentially quintuple worksite enforcement actions next year.

Trump Admin prosecuted 11 companies just in 2019 alone.

The crime is knowingly hiring illegals, not that a company had hired illegals. Now that Xiden has made it his policy not to prosecute thoses people, it's going to be hard for the next admin to clean it up....but I am confident it can be done.

Since most of the illegals came here on visas, it’s a mute point. Trump hired them…even knowing it’s illegal. Do you want to add that to one of his indictment's ? Great. You’re such a stickler for Justice when, it’s not Trump.

It’s also against the law to knowing sell a firearm to a felon. So all the seller, or the employer in this case has to do is, don’t ask. Then, he can not only hire the illegal but sell him a gun.

Federal law requires that a background check be done if that seller is a licensed dealer…now people can lie, like hunter did, that’s why it’s important to prosecute those people they catch lying, and not give them sweet heart deals

 

[Orangecat]

The bottom line is still, that illegals come here to work.

Some do. Some come to leach off the welfare system. Some come to deal drugs. Some come and murder American citizens. The reason they come is irrelevant. The fed-gov is tasked to stop them before they cross our border, regardless of the reason.

Don’t be simple. Firearms are seldom sold to criminals from licensed dealers..simple because background checks are REQUIRED. They aren’t REQUIRED Nationally for secondary or private sales by non FFL dealers. So criminals just buy guns in states with few regulations and move them to areas where there are. We do exactly the same thing with mexico and flood the drug cartel with guns unregulated secondary sales. Mexico is now trying to sue thenUS as we arm the drug cartels in other counties.

It’s true people csn illegal purchase a firearm, hence why it’s important to prosecute those offenders and not give them sweet heart deals like xiden tried to give his son
