      Donnie is leaning towards directing ICE to raid rural communities less, and urban communities more. It always comes down to rules for thee, not for me.

      Look at all that red land. Guess the red stands for underwater and nearing bankruptcy. Oops.

      This is a problem that will happen elsewhere. They need to fix it or we will have food supply issues. Fucking morons.

      Do they really think that any immigrant is going to give any weight to Trumps Farmers exemption the way ICE is currently operating

      Wow- it’s almost like they should have paid attention to whom they were voting for. There goes Texas’ economy.

      Maybe Joe Rogan and all the other comedians who moved there to avoid paying state taxes can pick fruit when they’re not comeding.

      Maybe they can write it down in a diary or something, anything they can revisit before the next election.

      I don’t want the business this way. But a lot of new potential yard accounts lately. But what they are used to paying and my rate are no where close to but their last guy “just stopped showing up”

      Even legal workers aren’t going to want to be in the fields, as ICE clearly doesn’t care about status if you are brown.

      I remember the Trump administration hobbled California farming by letting out the reservoirs at the wrong time (and fox blamed it on dems). I hope there isn’t major food scarcity coming up. What happens then?

      Farmer more or less admits to hiring people who didn’t have correct papers or evidence of being in the country illegally. Father doesn’t pay enough for citizens or others who have been in the country longer to want the jobs. So, demand for illegal help is created. 

      And they wonder why so many people cross the border? Could it be because they find work to support their families, and even send back home? 

      It’s like drug problems. Going after users doesn’t work as long as there is demand and supply. Go after suppliers and make efforts to reduce demand…(I thought it was illegal to hire undocumented workers?)

      Yes, decent wages for farm help would raise food prices. But if keeping food prices lower causes other unpalatable and expensive problems, then maybe we need to look at the way we produce food.

      I wouldn’t show up to work either if my boss voted to have bounty hunters exile me from the country.

      Farmers reaping what they sow? I like it, it’s got a symmetry to it that pleases me🤣

      I mean they could work their own fields. Pull themselves up by the bootstraps and all.

      There are so many saying that apply to texass: you reap what you sow. Be careful what you wish for. It great that maga voters are getting what they voted for but it suck for the rest of America that didn’t vote for this is having to suffer because of their stupidity, racism, bigotry and ignorance

      “We don’t ask people for papers, as it is not our job,” Billman said. “If someone is willing to work, we’re gonna give them a 1098 form, they signed up on it, they get paid, and whether they pay their taxes, that is their responsibility. We are worried that we are going to face scrutiny over it if they come raid our fields, as we don’t know who’s legal or not because we don’t ask that.” – Republican voter

      DJT reversed himself. One major grocery store in TX, HEB prides itself on buying TX fresh….

      At least they stuck it to the libs, right? You know they will be first in line for communist, err, freedom subsidies and bailout money.
