Trump’s immigration crackdown is taking a toll on the U.S. economy. From small farms to corporate giants like Disney, businesses are scrambling to replace workers after recent admin actions have taken immigrants — both legal and undocumented — out of the labor force.

Easy replacement: since both chambers of Congress are now defunct, we have lots of unemployed former senators and reps. eager to work in the fields! Simples!
FAFO!
Haven’t you heard? That’s what Medicaid recipients are for.
Sure. Like we feel your pain, America
…and we’re still down 33,000 jobs?
Immigrants make America great.
No shit! But it was so . . . unexpected!
😡
Who saw this coming? Answer: Everybody!
Add…with a brain
So not MAGA.
Wow! who could've seen this coming? Besides every serious economic and financial expert, i mean
Where's all those white boys who wanted the jobs the "immigrants" stole from them?! Get out there fellas!
The classic "Medicaid recipients are for" solution. Because, of course, the answer to a labor shortage is just more government programs. Meanwhile, the economy is just... magically fixing itself.
Its ok. MAGA will take these jobs and get out of their mom's basement.
. Republicans are Trump accomplices. They are all in this together. Remember. >>> This would all STOP if they objected. <<< They have now become the enemy. Treat them accordingly!
There’s a reason so many of Trump’s businesses went bankrupt!
Don't worry...as soon as those bums get thrown off medicaid there will be many able-bodied folks to pick up the slack...
This is what must happen to wake people up! Only when the bottom line is impacted can we hope to get out of this and rid the country of this evil!
Love it! Will America learn (or rather the GOP) the true contribution of immigrants to the economy. I mean it’s not like nearly everyone in the fucking country is either an immigrant or decedent themselves. (Except of course native Americans) big consequences yet to come to bare.
nobody wants to do what we do sincerely, a carpenter
Actually I love carpentry. Loved roofing too, but my knees didn't. However, screw that fruit and vegetable picking stuff.
I love what I do. The average age of the tradesperson shows that the majority of folks don't want to do it
Of course. It was inevitable.
Well played MAGA!
Don't worry, Small Farms of America! Your Medicaid replacement workers are on their way....
OMG…
Not to mention the lost revenues from tourism. Las Vegas is suffering.
How do they think this country was built? You’ve gotta be pretty stupid to not realize this nation was built on the backs and heavy lifting of immigrants after the horrendous enslaving of people was outlawed. And it continues to need these people to keep everything running smoothly.
It’s like we should have a plan for people who want to come here to fill jobs here or something like that. Maybe that’s too crazy….🙄
It’s ok, Donald’s other policies will make a lot of Americans desperate enough to do the jobs immigrants did. #TheNewOkies.
As predicted.
And it's Biden's fault I bet.
is this yet another way for the big corporate farms to take away the land of the smaller family farms? Hello farmers. Who did you vote for? I'm thinking you voted for trump. SMH.
Exactly what your owner wanted and rooted for. Celebrate Victory, Politico!
Come Fall there will be reckoning at the grocery stores. Then "But eggs..." will seem like a dream.
Someone should look at how much it’s costing in lost sales tax/property tax/income tax revenue as well. It’s costing us an absolute fortune to do this, both in straight up costs, loss of tax revenue, and likely increased costs of goods and services. For what? Because Trump is an asshole?
and ... the billions of dollars for ICE.
Totally. Spend tens of billions and also lose tens of billions in state/local/federal taxes and make everything more expensive. It’s absolutely idiotic. Alternatively, path to citizenship costs $0 and produces add’l tax revenue.
Maybe the MAGA supporters need to fill these jobs😂
AGREEEEEE
Guess I spoke too soon. They now want to use children and able bodied Medicaid people.
Voting, like actions, has consequences. Often disastrous.
I am against the ICE actions! But, these businesses are now going to have to PAY UP for replacement labor. Share some of that ca$h!
His Agriculture puppet says anyone on Medicaid should be required to work on farms to remain qualified for Medicaid. Are farms and fields wheel chair accessible?
Yeah, um, maybe those corporations should think twice before they buy an election they can't return
It’s going to get way worse cause citizens don’t do these jobs.
Medicaid recipients are supposed to replace the hardworking and low paid immigrants. Time to hire those with disabilities and chronic illnesses. Get those “lazy” ppl off their patooties
But, but, but….wouldn’t that fall under DEI hires 😜?
Everybody, and I mean everybody, knew this would happen.
Sad
I think the issue is that PEOPLE - both legal and undocumented - are being arrested and sent to concentration camps without due process. They are PEOPLE. They have people that love and care for them. They are so much more than the jobs they do.
When you have lots of money, none of this matters
Poor animals. Then again, Trump has never even owned a pet. He couldn't care less.
Mr Conway I have a question you may be able to answer please. Can you find out if DOJ has stopped, slowed down, or dropped cases involving white supremacist? Any white faction? FBI cases? Thanks!
It’s gonna be those gamers sitting on their couches.
It is a powerful multi prongs approach to decimate US economy. And its been major successes so far. Keep it up, I implore you, Donnie! You will bring back the Dirty Thirties in economy and Dark Ages in intellect to US !
I foresee “Workman’s Compensation” cases quadrupling in the first few months of implementation!
It's pretty bold for you to assume they're not going to doge workman's comp. 😉
Like we didn’t try to warn you.
If you voted for Trump, or lick his balls like Politico, you're an idiot.
Who didn't see this coming?
so… they need to hire real merikans??
The small businesses are irrelevant,regardless of what they say. Congress started amending the IRS Code in the 80’s so many companies could be treated as one and their employees as independent contractors. What remains, the same options, same stores, clones like we soon will be if we don’t …
How bout they fight for the workers they take go to court and explain how important they are needed none of them have said anything on the news loud enough
So, any employers being cited?
Now you’re talkin!!!
Excellent. Make it hurt more.
As long as those 77 million morons who voted for the orange know-nothing savior feel most of the pain. They elected tRump so he can hurt us all. Let's see how they feel once they can't put food on the table, maintain a job and keep their roofs over their heads.
