After the American people gave President Donald Trump a democratic mandate to enforce popular immigration laws, West Coast consumer economic investors are masquerading as protectors of the nation's families.
“What he's promising…is not about border security,” said Todd Schulte, president of FWD.us, a powerful pro-immigration lobby for investors. scripps news November 5th.
To extend that to say… there are 4 or 5 million U.S. citizen children who could lose a parent. [to deportation]. And it's about building a country that Americans don't want…One in three Latinos in the U.S. will be affected by President Trump's promises to help them or someone in their household. live in households where there is a risk of losing family members. do.

If the government extracts consumers on welfare, apartment-share renters, and low-wage workers from poor countries, investors can earn about $20 in equity value for every dollar of profit.
But Ken Cuccinelli, who reduced the number of migrants crossing the border while serving as Trump's acting Homeland Security secretary from 2019 to 2021, said Trump's majority victory was “a mandate and a serious “It's a mission.” He further added:
Trump didn't just win. He won with a concrete agenda such as: [has] Especially the political support of the American people for the performance.

Schulte's FWD.us group has significant influence within President Joe Biden's administration, with investors, particularly Zuckerberg, helping Biden win the 2020 election. . The group supported Biden's pro-immigration Border Secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, and offered her assistance to Harris. campaign managerDavid Plouffe.
This backroom power also explains why Ms. Harris has refused to significantly rein in the flood of immigrants who moved Mayorkas's wealth, which drove millions of Americans to vote for Trump.
Mr. Mayorkas has also created a political time bomb for Democrats. Because Mr. Mayorkas' actions allowed Republicans to shatter Democrats' claims to be champions of refugees, immigrant children, and separated families.
His economic strategy, extractive immigration, has expanded child labor in the United States, separated millions of adult immigrants from their stranded families, and transported thousands of immigrants in remote jungles, boats, snowstorms, and rivers. Killed quietly. “Two images of his perilous journey north stuck in my mind.” Reporter Alvinson Linares An article on Telemundo.com says of a Venezuelan immigrant named Johan Torres in 2023:
The first is how [migrant] A man was killed with a machete after resisting a robbery in Mexico. The other is [Panama] When I saw a man leave his young daughter in the jungle up to his waist in mud. “He left her there, lying in the mud, crying, and I couldn't do anything because I was dying of exhaustion. But I'll never forget it,” she said with tears in her eyes. He spoke with a smile on his face.
Mark Krikorian, director of the Center for Immigration Studies, said, “There are many fathers of failure, but Mr. Mayorkas is the leading figure of equal fathers.''
But Krikorian said Mayorkas' policies have broad support within the Democratic Party, adding:
How different would things have been under this administration if someone other than Mr. Mayorkas had been Secretary of Homeland Security? …clearly, [progressive] The left has made virtually unlimited immigration a litmus test.
And now, Kerkorian said, 2024 voting results show immigrants are deeply unpopular among wage earners in the Democratic Party's diverse coalition.
It came as a big surprise to Democrats, and many Republicans, that Hispanic Americans are just like other Americans, concerned about the same kinds of issues like the economy, immigration, and crime. you. The lesson they should draw is to stop treating Hispanic Americans as some kind of immigrant.[-only] Deal with them as an interest group, as an American citizen.
“I don’t know who it is. [Democrats] I think they were playing when they let millions of people cross the border,” said former TV presenter Chris Matthews. told MSNBC:
I don't know if they were thinking of anything clever. [an] open border. That's an open border. … Democrats no longer know what people think. They think about their country, they think about the cost of things, and the workers, well, they think about these things [Democratic] All the college students went to elite universities and everyone looked down on us.
If Democrats want to win in 2028, Krikorian continued:
Democrats would do well to significantly soften their position and distance themselves from both the Chamber of Commerce's immigration lobbyists and the ethnic chauvinist lobby. They can always take a more distinctive position on immigration and demand relaxation of immigration rules [for example,] —To differentiate itself from the Republican Party. It's still a plausible position for them, but it's not their idea [Mayorkas-style] The idea is to increase immigration by any means possible. It is not acceptable to the general public.
So far, Schulte's group and its vast network of business-backed advocacy organizations have progressive allies Mr. Mayorkas' supporters are not willing to concede to the many other groups within the Democratic Party who lost their purpose and hope when Mr. Trump won Pennsylvania on Wednesday morning.
In an interview with Scripps News, Schulte called for amnesty and more access to American jobs and homes.
Let's say, “Hey, let's give everyone AP.”[amnesty] A process that they can go through, and if they're here for a period of time, go through that process. [where] They can get citizenship. That's kind of our north star goal, and we think that should be combined with a legal immigration system. This will make it easier to enter the country legally and make it harder to enter the country illegally in the future. That's something that the American people really strongly support…
But we can be a country that claims to have an orderly process. And that's what's best for all Americans. Instead of promising to follow suit, let's build an immigration system that will work for the next century. I want to make this clear to the millions of families living in states like Pennsylvania, Texas, Ohio, Georgia, and North Carolina. For decades. We shouldn't be that kind of country.
Trump said: “We're talking about targeting other people's families, but let's be clear: This is going to have a negative impact on every community in America…We're going to keep families together and build stronger, more modern, safer communities. Build a humane immigration system,” he said.
In a subsequent statement, Schulte's investor group said: large-scale PR campaign To recover from the election:
Business priority is to protect [migrants]. The second is to return to a larger, longer-term effort to rebuild trust with the American people on the issues that are most vulnerable to the weaponization that divides and weakens us.
During the election, many public opinion polls were conducted. young peopleincreasing proportions of Latinos, Blacks, and white-collar professionals means the government can deport illegal immigrants, slow the influx of new immigrants, and encourage ordinary Americans to invest in the West Coast consumer economy. It shows that you want to prioritize things over your home.
