ICE raids are leaving fields full of rotting food in California. Even the documented workers are not showing up. And guess what? You’ll still want your strawberries then you’ll pay more for imported ones. This isn’t border security. It’s cruel economic sabotage, dressed up as patriotism.

Stephen Miller is privately raging over deportation numbers he deems too low. So he's shifting huge amounts of law enforcement resources away from fighting serious crimes and into his immigration crackdown. If voters knew about this, they'd recoil. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1961...
