Former President Donald Trump’s push to kill a bipartisan immigration deal may now derail a major national security package, forcing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to suggest a new course of action and endangering aid to Ukraine and Israel in the process.
And also do jobs like working chicken farms and dangerous jobs that you would have to pay US citizens more money to do (and also pay the taxes on them). The idea of immigrants being “illegal” came about as a way to replace slave labor. People who know they will be deported don’t make complaints to OSHA, so you can treat them poorly, and just replace them like you would any other expendable item should your place of employment lead to them becoming ill, dismembered, or even deceased.
