Hakeem Jeffries sagt ernsthaft, dass Trump etwas Anerkennung verdient | Ein weiterer Beweis dafür, dass Jeffries derzeit nicht in der Lage ist, die Demokraten anzuführen.

Thank God someone is trying to primary this Nazi sympathizer.

You do not, under any circumstances, „gotta hand it to him.“

Trump’s „mass deportation“ agenda has done nothing to address the root causes of the „immigration crisis;“ including issues related to border security, the immigration court system, staffing shortages, a broken asylum/refugee status seeking process, and among other things, the economic costs associated with his policies.

It’s just Trump abusing his powers and signing excessive numbers of EOs to federalize the military and deputize masked ICE agents who terrorize the public, assault passersby, repeatedly violate the Constitution, refuse to show or carry the proper warrants, throw people into unmarked vehicles, obey unlawful orders, and among other things, suspend civil rights and liberties on a whim.

It’s also been reported that hundreds of American citizens have been wrongfully and violently detained as well.

Research shows that both undocumented and legal immigrants alike contribute trillions of dollars to our GDP and play a crucial role in helping to sustain and grow our economy.

And here’s what’s really going to blow your mind—these same immigrants pay significant taxes.

They pay BILLIONS in taxes into programs like Social Security and Medicare—programs that they cannot access.

Federal law prohibits undocumented immigrants from receiving most forms of federal benefits.

In some states, immigrants pay more taxes than the top 1% of households.

Studies show that immigrants pay more in taxes than they’ll ever receive back from the government.

Immigrants make up a sizable chunk of the labor force—about 19 percent.

Even economists are concerned that deporting such a large number of immigrants at once could leave a hole in the labor force.

Immigrants contribute considerably to our economic growth and take on work in sectors that are crucial to the economy. And when these sectors face labor shortages, the economic consequences are quite severe.

This means that the loss of even a small portion of this workforce will lead to outcomes like increased prices and inflation, supply chain issues, unstable wages, reduced GDP and purchasing power and volatile fluctuations in supply and demand.

Then there are issues like unemployment and permanent job vacancies. Business owners who hire cheap, immigrant labor will not justify paying living wages to those that actually have the privilege to demand fair pay.

Combine this with the consequences of Trump’s big ugly bill and you’ve got yourself a recipe for an economic disaster.

The Trump regime is not only detaining and deporting so called illegal „criminals“ and „gang members,“ (and without evidence or legal justification mind you) but migrants, foreigners, residents, visa holders, green card carriers, students, taxpayers, veterans and families who are here LEGALLY.

According to actual data, immigrants are not committing crimes at a greater rate than native born Americans.

One study found that undocumented immigrants had „substantially lower crime rates than native-born citizens and legal immigrants across a range of felony offenses.”

Data also shows that immigrants are not smuggling large quantities of fentanyl into the U.S. Most seizures are happening at ports of entry. These drugs are being smuggled in by U.S. citizens!

The Biden admin also did an exponentially better job at detecting and seizing fentanyl at the border.

What Trump won’t mention is that Mexico sharply curtailed the flow of undocumented immigrants following a deal with Biden in 2024.

After the bipartisan immigration reform deal was shot down at the behest of Trump, the Biden admin had to work at implementing some of the bill’s policies despite facing court challenges.

Unauthorized border crossings fell dramatically.

If Trump were competent, he would have tried to build on these policies instead of implementing costly, impractical, authoritarian and inhumane immigration measures while threatening our neighbors with trade wars.

This guy sucks and needs to go

“Jeffries was asked about his response to the Cuellar pardoning by CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.

“Congressman Cuellar is a beloved member of the House of Representatives, loved in his community…. The reality is, this indictment was very thin to begin with, in my view,” Jeffries replied. “The charges were eventually gonna be dismissed…. I think the outcome was exactly the right outcome.”

While Cuellar was not yet convicted, the charges against him were certainly thick enough for a grand jury to indict him. This could have been an opportunity to denounce Cuellar—a moderate Democrat who is anti-abortion and opposed his party’s agenda in 2024—as a corrupt politician of old. Jeffries could have even tied Cuellar’s corruption charges to how Trump has transformed the presidency to make himself and his family richer. “

“Later on Wednesday, Jeffries was asked about giving Trump his flowers for the brutal detainment and deportation campaign that he argues has secured the border, and gave a similarly baffling answer.

“Can you give Trump credit for securing the border?” Jeffries was asked again on CNN. “That was a big issue under the Biden administration when you had record border crossings.”

“The border is secure, that’s a good thing. It’s happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he’ll get credit for that,” Jeffries replied. “In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration … there’s a lot that is left to be desired.”

Absolutely bat shit take.

Calling it now. Jeffries is afraid something is coming that will end with corruption accusations pointed in his direction and he either would like that investigation to not manifest, or get himself a pardon if it does.

Fuck this tone deaf asshole.

Damn. Israel must be *really* yanking on poor ol‘ Jeffries‘ leash hard…

Yikes.

but we shouldn’t primary him, right AOC? right Mamdani?

What is wrong with this idiot?

He cannot be working on behalf of the people of America while giving kudos to a man tearing the county down.

Jeffries has been utterly ineffectual at every turn.

Jesus fucking christ. Credit for what? Murdering people in the open sea? Demolishing the White House?

He says words, sometimes the right ones. But he just doesn’t have the conviction or humanity or whatever you call it to move a population. It’s undefinable. He possesses the charismatic gravitas of roadkill.

Fuck Jeffries, he’s bought and paid for.

Jeffries needs to go

Well thats my last ‚maybe‘ about Jeffries. Absolutely fuck this guy. Him and Schumer absolutely need to gtfo. We dont want this corrupt shit just because it has a D next to its name.

AIPAC tightened his leash in the recent wave of Trump unpopularity.

Fuck you, Hakeem. If you want to go suck off the President you might as well join the Republican party.
