475 Automotive jobs now open for Americans

Sunday, September 07, 2025

The South Korean government announced on Sunday that it reached a deal with the United States to secure the release and repatriation of over 300 of its citizens who were detained during a sweeping U.S. immigration enforcement action at a Hyundai manufacturing plant in Georgia. A charter flight will be arranged when all administrative steps are finalized, according to presidential chief of staff Kang Hoon-sik. The immigration enforcement operation took place on Thursday when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested 475 individuals, mostly Korean nationals, at a Hyundai electric vehicle battery plant shared with LG Energy Solution near Ellabell, Georgia.

And what's the penalty for Hyundai?

"And what's the penalty for Hyundai?"

The cost of having the plant closed indefinitely is the strongarm part of the penalty.

Someone check if the cable outlets been showing "You Can Take This Job And Shove It" for the late show recently, giving Trump this idea.

You were so excited about writing the headline you forgot to figure out what really happened. They were construction workers at a facility being built next to the auto plant. apnews.com

Why aren't these criminals being sent to El Gulago, Alligator Alcatraz, and whatever other pet names for fascism they have now.

There isn't a Republican who can tell me why it should be that these criminals get a charter flight out but tens of thousands of others are sent to camps at massive taxpayer expense.

Bless your heart for your further investigation. But theres still 475 jobs open for Americans.

America is winning.

Admit it. You'd love America to fail before you'd want it to win under President Trump.

It's obvious by now that EVERY bad thing predicted for Trump is come true or will very likely come true?

Out of genuine curiosity-----You voted for all it?

Really?

Wow.

We wanted America to win on COVID.
Trump wanted America to lose.
So we got hit twice as hard as Canada and Mexico.

You love Trump's failures so much you call them wins.

No there are not.

Can we see the link where you could apply to one of these 475 jobs and do something with your life -- other than cheerleading for Trump?

No. That's not part of your cheerleader routine.

No Americans can qualify for those particular jobs. That's why they brought in the Koreans. To construct the plant and teach Americans how to operate it. Once the plant was built it would have employed thousands.

So now if the plant is closed and not finished all those opportunities are lost. And the money spent to bring manufacturing home America (to build foreign cars?) is wasted and the plant will be shuttered.

Unless Trumpy back peddles and finds some other country crazy enough to come here or he apologizes for his criminal incompetence and begs Sourh Korea to stay and finish the work they started.

So much winning!
