"Scardina says he voted for Trump and still supports many of the former president's policies, but this isn't what he signed up for."

No pity, sorry, fresh out for always whinging MAGAts.
Breadline forms to the right.

but this isn't what he signed up for.

It most certainly was.

You just were too stupid to see that it was.

Enjoy your overtime.

Just another capitalist exploiting workers, in this case workers who cannot fight back or demand better wages, because of their legal status. This guy should also be in jail for hiring the workers, because they probably DO NOT have valid papers to work in the US.

As I've written, there is little to no chance these ICE dudes will show up in force in Texas or Okiehomie, because as our unstable genius king has noted, ICE raids cause hard-working people in the construction, hospitality, lawncare and other businesses to suddenly disappear. And all know that white people in this country will not work long as roofers, room attendants, grass cutters or dishwashers. MAGA-loving farmers are already feeling the strain from not having enough field workers to harvest stone fruit, strawberries or lettuce. Ask employers at meat-packing plants how they feel about their staffing, and the response will be downcast eyes, frowns and head shaking.

The self-loathing Pee Wee German Stephen Miller is doing a great job causing a labor shortage in this country. Good work, Jew Boy...

Shouldn't he have been arrested too?

He appears to have broken law by hiring undocumented workers.

Adding to Scardina's annoyance, the men had valid work permits and pending asylum applications, according to their attorney Regilucia Smith. "They are legally here," she said. "Valid work permit, not even close to expired ... again, no criminal records"not here, not in Nicaragua."

take that for what it's worth.

Let me translate for you. There is no such thing as roofing without undocumented immigrants. There is a deep, multilayered deep network of middlemen providing fraudulent documentation to transient construction workers to game the system and give cover to folks like Mr. Sardinia who hire them and pay them substandard wages in cash. This is nothing new, and Sardinia knows this game. He just didn't think HE would get caught up in it. While it is possible that his workers had valid work permits and ICE will sort it out, it is equally likely that their permits were fraudulent, and even the workers didn't know it.
