This past weekend, I met with farm workers affected by mass deportations. Many women shared heartbreaking stories of their husbands being taken during traffic stops and deported without understanding the forms they signed, leaving families shattered. I spoke to two 11-year-old boys, one who had spoken to his father in Mexico and was heartbroken, and another who hadn’t yet communicated with his dad and was in tears. These workers, who have toiled for decades, often without any criminal records, are now living in fear. This situation not only devastates families but also impacts farmers and food prices. Mass deportations mean real suffering—families are torn apart, and children are left without their parents. It’s a tragic reality.

You would do anything for the illegal stuff to be feared. I think we found a new home for you guys. What? I don’t understand this immigration situation. They need to hear us. They are not violent; they’re good people. Just like before, right? Can they stay for dinner? Sorry, but we have your signature. You guys have to drive back down south. Back to Home Depot.

A Mexican man states he supports Trump and believes people are wrong to call him racist. He argues that as president of America, Trump is looking out for Americans. He suggests that non-Americans may not understand this perspective. He believes things were better and cheaper under Trump's presidency. He expresses frustration with his current financial situation, working 70 hours a week and still struggling to afford things.

Speaker 0 argues that, just like George Floyd, there must be violent action: “we're not gonna… tear this motherfucker up.” They claim the second amendment is to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government, stating, “Google it. It's to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government. That's true.” They insist the police should be on “our side fighting, pointing their guns at the fucking government,” and assert, “It's the facts.” They emphasize that the Second Amendment is not for hunting or self-defense, but to protect from tyranny. The speaker expresses personal fear and anger: “I have a little baby,” and asserts, “You put a gun to my baby's head. I'm gonna hurt somebody.” They claim the government is harming them and their community: “That's what they're doing to us.” They identify as not Hispanic and formerly lived comfortably, but now fear for life quality, saying, “I'm black. I used be sitting home smoking my weed, enjoying my money, but I'll die about this shit. I'll have no quality of life left.” They describe difficulties related to immigration status and fear of consequences: their wife, who is documented with a work permit, “won't go to work because they'll take her still.” They claim confiscations of people with documents and even children, and declare that “they're taking people that have documents. They're taking kids.” They declare the world is ending for them and their community and assert the environment as intolerable. The speaker references political outrage and perceived hypocrisy in leadership, noting, “They go snatch the president of Venezuela, but our fucking president is a sex offender.” They suggest drastic action: “Why are we not the White House dragging him out by his fucking collar? That’s where we gotta go, you guys, to White House.” They describe the situation as unsustainable and dismiss what they call “bullshit,” insisting the current state cannot continue. They mention abortion in a negative or contradictory context with frustration: “You can just abort a baby,” implying a provocative or incendiary line of argument. Overall, the message centers on fervent anti-government and anti-establishment sentiment, the belief that the Second Amendment serves as protection against tyranny, a call for direct action, fear for personal and family safety, and accusations of political hypocrisy and systemic oppression affecting immigrants, Black people, and ordinary citizens.

The clip argues that ICE and the National Guard would “chill participation” at polling places and that there must be “a stake in the ground and do things differently.” The speaker, who says, “throughout that entire eighteen year period, there was never a single time that I showed up at a polling station on election day because I did not have the right to vote in America,” asks: “So what is Gavin Newsom saying here? There are immigrants who are voting?” They claim “the presence of ICE will stop people from going to the polls” and conclude that, “So basically what he is saying is that illegal immigrants will be deterred from going to the polls.” They ask, “Is this the reason why they don't want voter IDs?” “If this is not a confession of how corrupt the voting system in Democrat controlled states have become, I don't know what will convince you.” “As a new American citizen... I believe that my vote needs to be protected from being wiped out by illegal immigrants.” “If this was not a plan, I am calling on ICE to actually show up at polling stations because citizens are not intimidated by seeing law enforcement.” “And we cannot continue to allow our election system to be abused.”

What's your name? Where are you from? I was born in Thailand. Have you ever been deported from the U.S.? No, I've never been deported. What have you been charged with? I'm not a citizen; my mother is. I've seen Dr. Phil on TV. This is an example of sanctuary cities, where illegal immigrants, like those involved in sex crimes against children, are walking the streets instead of being detained by federal agents. You've been charged with sex crimes? Not really. So, you've never been deported? Nope. We need to process and lock them up.

Last night around 2 AM, I heard a knock at the door and saw three men outside. They were going door-to-door, and I knew who they were and who they were after, so I didn’t answer. I watched as they took people from their homes, mostly my neighbors, who are all Mexican. This morning, the usual five work trucks in the parking lot were reduced to just one. The place feels eerily quiet; I don’t hear my neighbors anymore. I’ve been looking outside, and there’s no one around. It feels like they took my neighbors away, and it’s strange because they usually don’t speak English.

Hey, Trump. Look at these hardworking Mexican Americans behind me. They were born and raised here, contributing to our economy. Migrants who work alongside them are here because they know how to work hard. You’ve never experienced that, so you don’t understand what it takes to build this country. Your proposed worksite raids are misguided. Our economy thrives because of people like them and migrants who want to succeed for themselves and their families.

I'm an American citizen, born here, 37 years old, and have paid taxes my whole life. I've put a lot of money into this country and always have to pay at the end of the year. I've never had any government assistance, food stamps, or any help from the government ever. I've paid tens of thousands of dollars in taxes, and they've never helped me. People here illegally are getting all that money that I paid in, that I can't have. It was taken from me from my hard work, out of my pocket, without my permission. Now they're giving it away to people who didn't earn it.

I'm at my job at a Hyundai plant that makes electric cars, but immigration came today, and hundreds of people left. Some ran and jumped the fences. My group is here waiting to see what we're going to do. The Americans are trying to protect those who don't have documents or legal status. They stopped work today just to wait and see what happens, to see if we return to work or not. Everyone's worried because eighty to ninety percent of my group are Venezuelans with status to stay here, but people are still scared. ICE came to raid our workplace, and the Americans are trying to help, protect, and ask about everyone's case.

Speaker 0 argues that the decision to move to America is not driven by a belief that it is a superior country, but by the relative inadequacy of other options. The speaker emphasizes that people migrate here because it is "a little less worse" than their home countries, countering the stereotype that immigration is motivated by trivial comforts like hot dogs and baseball. Instead, the speaker asserts that migrants are drawn by the opportunity to access better overall conditions—vibes, music, food, culture, and history—while also pursuing greater economic opportunities to support their families. They state: "We just move here because we are looking to make more money and offer a better chance for our families," underscoring economic motivation as a primary driver. The speaker then highlights a concrete economic comparison: in Mexico, the minimum wage "a day, not an hour, in Mexico is not even 15 American dollars." This figure is offered to illustrate the economic gap and the incentive to seek better wages in the United States. They contrast this with their current spending power in San Diego, noting that with fifteen dollars, they could perhaps "buy a matcha and half of a granola bar honey," illustrating the high cost of living and limited purchasing power in the U.S. context relative to the income people may earn back home. A political stance is then expressed regarding immigration enforcement policy. The speaker asserts that supporting ICE equates to supporting "people getting destroyed" and "families getting destroyed." This expresses a strong moral condemnation of immigration enforcement practices and their impact on families. The closing sentiment is personal and emphatic: the speaker declares, "I will see you there babes, for sure," signaling a resolute stance and a confrontational, yet affectionate, closing remark toward the audience.

I paid a cartel $10,000 to cross the border. The American people are right, they don't know who's coming in. There's no security or background checks, so there could be killers or psychopaths. It's concerning that abnormal-looking people might be crossing the border.

Cell phone video shows ICE agents chasing workers after a raid. ICE has not disclosed the number of people detained. Ventura County's agriculture industry is a $2 billion per year industry, and raids could significantly impact planting and harvesting. One worker described arriving at work this morning during the raid. Another worker spoke about the anxiety of potentially encountering ICE in Ventura County fields.

This past weekend, I met with farm workers affected by mass deportations. Many women shared heartbreaking stories of their husbands being taken during traffic stops and deported without understanding what they signed. I spoke to two 11-year-old boys, one who had spoken to his father in Mexico and was heartbroken, and another who hadn’t been able to reach his dad and was in tears. These families, who have worked tirelessly in the fields for years, often without any criminal records, are now torn apart. This situation not only devastates families but also impacts farmers and food prices. Mass deportations mean real suffering—children without parents and wives without husbands. It’s a tragic reality.

Camilla Ruilova Bustamente, brought to the U.S. as a baby, fears deportation to a country she doesn't know. After 23 years, she still lacks legal status, and her biggest concern is family separation. Her story is shared with Trump voters near DC, revealing mixed reactions. Some express empathy, acknowledging her situation, while others insist on strict immigration control, emphasizing the importance of legal processes. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez advocates for temporary protected status for undocumented Ecuadorians, arguing for documentation rather than military action against them. However, the immigration system is overwhelmed, with nearly 8 million cases pending and over 13 million undocumented migrants, including many with criminal records.

FBI agents arrested my husband in Coachella. This nightmare unfolded as we were simply trying to run errands. I want everyone to know that my family has been separated. According to my account, eight FBI agents surrounded us and stated that they had a deportation order for my husband, but they didn't show it to us. We have been married for 20 years, and he has lived in the United States for 30 years. He has lived in this country longer than his own. He wasn't perfect, but he paid for whatever he did.

Speaker 0 questions Speaker 1 about their lack of concern for the financial burden on Americans due to immigration. Speaker 1 expresses their love for America and willingness to pay for their dream. Speaker 0 points out that Speaker 1 entered illegally, but Speaker 1 admits to not knowing the legal process. Speaker 1 plans to work as an Uber driver and mentions their admiration for American music culture. Speaker 0 raises concerns about homelessness and lack of work permit, but Speaker 1 remains optimistic about finding work. Speaker 1 expresses willingness to do any job for America and mentions paying taxes. Speaker 0 asks about Speaker 1's family, and Speaker 1 hopes they can visit but acknowledges language barriers. Speaker 1 is not scared of potential rejection and expresses gratitude towards Joe Biden.

About half of the workers on this farm are not U.S. born, and they are needed year-round for 24-hour operations. The farmer expresses concern about potential mass roundups of undocumented workers, questioning how such actions could be carried out without disrupting food production. He believes that within two days of losing these workers, food supplies would dwindle significantly, impacting availability in stores. When asked if Governor Kristine Noem understands this situation, he assumes she does, expressing faith that officials will not take drastic measures that could jeopardize the agricultural workforce.

"I wanna get out of here. I wanna get my mom and my two dogs and get out of here, but I'm not sure where to go." "I know the quickest exit point would be through Mexico, and I was thinking maybe Panama would be a place to take us." "We could drive there. We have a car that could make it, and I know they use American dollar the American dollar there, so we wouldn't have to do a money exchange necessarily if we went to Panama." "I'm really scared that I'm gonna be taken to one of those camps and to one of those detention centers or institutionalized, and my mom will be alone." "And she's 81, and I'm really all she has." "If something happens to me or to her, they will starve." "There's no one to take care of them." "I gotta get us out of here, and I gotta do it, like, right now, like, ASAP."

You would do anything to be feared. I think we found a new home for you. What’s this about immigration? They need to hear us. But they’re not violent; they’re good people. Are they going to hop it like before? Thank you very much. Can they stay for dinner? Sorry, but we have your signature. You all need to drive back down south. Back to Home Depot.

I paid a cartel around $10,000 to come into this country. The American people are right, they don't know who is crossing the border. There is no security or background check, so there could be killers or psychopaths. People crossing the border may not look normal.

I received a text from my daughter urging me not to go to the store or participate in protests. I’m proud of my Mexican heritage, but I believe in working hard and following the rules. If I had a business and employees protested, I would fire them. Everyone should work legally and respect the system. Protests don’t solve anything; all lives matter, not just specific groups. People complain about deportations, but if they had the right paperwork, there wouldn’t be an issue. It frustrates me when people take advantage of the system and then want to avoid the consequences. We need to use common sense and take responsibility for our actions.

I'm John Rosenow, a fifth-generation farmer in Womondie, Wisconsin. I own over 900 acres and 600 dairy cows. It takes about one person for every 40-45 cows, and about 90% of that work is done by immigrants like Kevin, who came from Central Mexico. Kevin works long hours for better pay than he'd get back home, supporting his family. Many undocumented workers, over half the dairy industry, work for less than Americans would accept. If I hired Americans, I'd have to pay around $100,000 a year per person for only 40-50 hours a week. I'd be out of business in six months unless milk cost $10 a gallon. If the new administration deports all the undocumented workers, I'm out of business quickly. Kevin isn't too worried; he's heard deportation threats before and hasn't felt fear lately.

If I were the governor here, I would be afraid. We see trucks and groups of people crossing the border, and the Border Patrol is watching. There are a lot of people coming in, and this is just the first wave. There are more coming. It's not good that Joe Biden is allowing this. I want Trump back in office because he would deport these people. Islam is terrible for the world, like a new virus. We have a lot of terrorists in America, but I don't have the exact numbers.

It's tough work out here—hot and full of mosquitoes. For those who think it doesn't affect them because they don't hire undocumented immigrants, be prepared for higher grocery prices. American workers often need training for farm work, and many simply aren't willing to do it. On this farm, no U.S. citizens are picking crops. The work is heavy and difficult, and farm owners acknowledge this. Americans have other job options and often choose not to work in agriculture. In contrast, many immigrants come here to earn a living and support their families back home. They're serious about their work, as evident in the fields around us.
