It’s pretty expensive and time consuming to deport people. We know exactly the kind of camps Trump and Miller are creating. People will go in and be used as slave labor. There will be only one exit for those who can’t or won’t work anymore: a chimney.

I can just hear the heart wrenching German music that is played during any documentary of the people suffering. Watch the movie,”The Boy in the Striped Pajamas “

"Trump's deportation vow alarms Texas construction industry"

Clear signals President-elect Donald Trump plans to make good on his campaign pledge to deport millions of undocumented immigrants in his second term has sparked concerns among some in Texas' business and economic sectors who say mass deportations could upend some of the state's major industries that rely on undocumented labor, chief among them the booming construction industry.

"It would devastate our industry, we wouldn't finish our highways, we wouldn't finish our schools," said Stan Marek, CEO of Marek, a Houston-based commercial and residential construction giant. "Housing would disappear. I think they'd lose half their labor."

Releasing immigrant criminals, blocking a bipartisan border bill. Both were done in order to keep MAGidiot rage monkeys raging. Both were significant issues that Dear Leader wanted to keep burning for his benefit. Sure, inflation and high prices were in the mix, but hatred of brown people was, IMO, the real gas on the fire. And with inflation now under control and prices at least leveling off, if not dropping, the right will certainly take credit for that, even though they've done none of the work. I have a dark feeling that the corporate and oligarch class of this country may have worked to keep prices unnecessarily high during the campaign in order to give Trump another issue to run on. But that's just me.

They have blades and razor wire, so you can't go over or under.

You can turn around and go back or drown. Your choice.

The main goal here is to get Dawn Buckingham's name in front of Donald Trump's piggy eyes. There is going to be a lot of Trump administration hiring going on.

President Sheinbaum saying that while Mexico will repatriate CITIZENS expelled from the US, it will demand the US prove they are Mexican citizens. Who is going to staff the camp and process all those people? The kind of staffing it'll need is not likely to find people willing to live in a country where the only town's (Roma) biggest shop is a Dollar General.

The moment you start talking about processing people, you've taken a wrong turn somewhere and you need to be reminded that every human is a person first and foremost.

Trump wants a spectacle, Texas is volunteering to provide one - unlike any of the other states on the US-Mexico border.

Neither Trump nor Texas want to solve any particular problem.

But, like the swallows to Capistrano, in 2026, we'll have migrant caravans again.
