Summary
Donald Trump’s aggressive immigration policies, including heightened ICE raids, are disrupting the U.S. agricultural sector.
In California’s Central Valley, a key food-producing region, undocumented farm workers—over half the workforce—are staying home out of fear, leaving crops like citrus unharvested.
Bakersfield saw up to 75% of workers absent, sparking concerns of economic devastation and rising food prices.
ICE is also targeting sensitive areas like schools and churches after rolling back Obama-era protections.
Experts warn these policies could lead to widespread economic repercussions.
Maybe it will be things like this will start the ball rolling towards the allowing dumber half of America finally see what they stood behind.
So many people are going to suffer for their decision. And while I am generally not the type to wish ill on others, I’m glad that they’re all going to be suffering right along with us. It’s good to know those that caused the oncoming disaster won’t be spared the consequences of their action.
Serves them right.
