ICE raids Hyundai plant in GA......450 apprehended!

[Twisted Gypsy Child]

Trump, post-Hyundai ICE raid, says all foreign companies need to 'please respect our nation's immigration laws'

"What we ask in return is that you hire and train American Workers," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Can you imagine if an American was allowed to open a factory in South Korea on the promise that it would provide jobs, then it was caught importing illegal american labor?

The company should be fined heavily and told that if it ever does this again, it will be ejected from the U. S. and their factory taken with compensation to be deducted from another heavy fine.

Needless to say, I would hope, all of these illegal aliens should be sent back to their home country immediately.

This is being discussed

ELLABELL, Ga. (WSAV) — WSAV has confirmed with the spokesperson from Homeland Security that Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) is conducting a sting operation at the Hyundai plant.

Hundreds of undercover law enforcement vehicles and Humvees were reportedly seen on Kia Road Thursday morning.

Large buses were also seen entering the site. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearm (ATF) confirmed Thursday night 450 people were apprehended during the sting operation...

None of them were employed by Hyundai. they all worked for subcontractors.

Even worse, angle shooting to harm Americans and pretend "hey, we didnt know!"

I dont buy shitty Hyundai’s so I could care less what the prices jump to.

Stupid comment on several fronts.

Hyundai's are great cars.

Good thing to know that as long as you have yours.....you don't care.

I thought they were just picking tomatoes. Huh

People can deal with the high prices they voted for. I don’t care if inflation rears its ugly head. I have investments that will benefit. I dont keep cash. And necessities are a miniscule fraction of my income. If people dont like inflation making them poor they shouldn’t have voted for it.

The problem resides with GA Govenor Kemp. (RINO)

You cannot employ that many illegal immigrants (south koreans) without some sort of complicity by state officials....especially when deaths occur during construction.

Too many people have been deliberately blind to the situation....
People knew but either were getting paid off or directly profiting.

GA government is rife with corruption. Too many times and too many people keep popping up on the national radar screen.....Where is Newt Gingrich when you need him?

Thanks for proving my point.

Is Hyundai going to get fined? Will the plant managers who hired them all get prosecuted?

It was sub contractors the general contractors hired to build the plant. If by chance most of them or even half get deported it will set back the construction months or a year or two. If Trump wants foreign investments such as South Korea to build here he should take a second look at who's getting raided or the investments will stop coming.

If they want to use immigrant South Korean labor to build the factory, they can use LEGAL immigrant South Korean labor to build the factory.

I don't know why this is so hard to understand.

This is what I voted for!

There's no point in bringing manufacturing jobs back to the US if all the labor is just sending their wages back south of the border.

LOL....I bet the congress critter from that district got an ear full from Hyundai.

Now arrest the plant manager and HR that hired them.

Hyundai should get fined $50,000 minimum per illegal, so $22.5million+.

Fund ICE through fines, use the surplus against national debt.

Another thing that crossed my mind is that someone, somewhere more than likely gave huge tax incentives (AKA bribes) to either Hyundai or South Korea or both in order to build a plant in Georgia in order to provide good paying jobs to AMERICANS and then they bypassed the Americans part and gave the jobs located in America to illegal South Koreans instead. This IS what Trump is talking about as far as our so called allies screwing us over royally. America First! Are these the jobs that those on the left claim are jobs that no Americans want to do, so they import illegals to do them?

Over 300 were workers from South Korea. Maybe overstays?

They're being sent back to S Korea.

I don't know why this is so hard to understand.

Well, according to a few articles some had work visas. But SK is sending a charter plane as the WH has agreed to let them go back to SK.

At a time when Trump welcomes other countries to build in U.S. there should be a more lenient way to get work visas. Hell, SK has pledged 26 billion to build a steel plant in Louisiana and if they can get U.S. workers good but very doubtful all these foreign countries wanting to build here can get all American workers.

MAGA are the dumbest fuckers in the world...



The South Koreans were all on valid visas and were here to build a $8.3bn Battery plant by 2030... Turns out, South Koreans have a lot of experience building battery plants, Americans less so...

But don't worry, MAGA ICE made sure that the people they brought into the country to help build the plant will get 12 year bans... Some of these people were int he country for 2 days and were leaving in 3 days...

Now every business has been told... Don't risk your employees by sending them to US for even a business meeting... US is very very business unfriendly... They will come into offices and arrest foreigners with valid visas and take them to detention centres..

Even North Korea don't that...

You FAGATs who lay prostrate at the altar of CNN are typical rubes who put your noses up the butt of Brian Stelter.

Lay off the inernet tabloids, Darlin'.

What are B1-visas some had at Hyundai plant in Georgia?

Immigration agents detained hundreds of workers at a Hyundai manufacturing plant, some who entered the United States under a visa waiver program or had a B-1 visa. Here’s what’s allowed under those programs.

Nothing in those two articles really amounts to anything...

Let's be clear, ICE when there on a tip for Latino Workers and just saw all these South Koreans and said they will do...

The South Koreans are there to set up this factory which is a $8.3bn investment by Hyundai... That includes equipment that has to be shipped from South Korea and installed. They also have to train operators how to use it...

ICE saw that they could get 10% of there national target for they if they just detain and deport 300 of these guys... This is not criminals, these are guys over in America, training Americans on their new job...

Again braindead stuff... South Koreans can make batteries at home, why would they come to America to make them... Plan is to have Americans doing that work..

Actually, both articles identify that the visas were questionable, thus the ICE raids were legitimate.

And President Trump just said he was totally against this.

Once again his hand picked cabinet members go rogue.

Quite the leader.
