The nation will be pushed toward “social and economic turmoil,” if a reelected President Donald Trump tries to enforce Congress’s border laws, the New York Times claimed on November 11.

“Sweeping Raids, Giant Camps and Mass Deportations: Inside Trump’s 2025 Immigration Plans,” declared the headline for an article about President Donald Trump’s campaign promises to enforce border policies if he is elected.

The article was decorated with a matching claim from an investor group that lobbies for more migrant consumers, renters, and workers:

“Americans should understand these policy proposals are an authoritarian, often illegal, agenda that would rip apart nearly every aspect of American life — tanking the economy, violating the basic civil rights of millions of immigrants and native-born Americans alike,” Mr. [Todd] Schulte said.

Todd Schulte, the New York Times said, is “the president of FWD.us, an immigration and criminal justice advocacy group that repeatedly fought the Trump administration,”

In reality, Schulte runs a very influential lobby group for billionaire investors, which was founded by Mark Zuckerberg and Silicon Valley investors to push the failed “Gang of Eight” amnesty bill in 2013.

FWD.us lobbies because investors recognize that Wall Street’s stock values spike when the government skews the economy by importing more renters, consumers, and cheap workers, regardless of the pocketbook damage to ordinary Americans. The breadth of investors who founded and still fund FWD.us was hidden from casual visitors to the group’s website. But copies exist at the other sites.

However, Steve Miller, Trump’s veteran aide on migration policy, told the New York Times that ordinary Americans will gain once the labor market is leveled by the enforcement of existing laws:

Mass deportation will be a labor-market disruption celebrated by American workers, who will now be offered higher wages with better [workplace] benefits to fill these jobs.

Ordinary Americans — especially black Americans — enjoyed a long and steady rise in prosperity after Congress curbed migration in 1925. But lobbyists persuaded Congress to reopen migration in 1965, double it in 1990, and largely open the border in 2021. The result has been a colossal transfer of wealth from ordinary Americans over to CEOs, investors, and Wall Street.

The government’s migration stimulus for Wall Street policy has also greatly reduced U.S. innovation, imposed chaotic diversity on Americans’ society, and extracted human resources from many poor countries.

The New York Times article did not discuss whether or not Trump would try to curb the federal government’s massive and hard-to-track legal inflow of migrants into college graduate jobs, blue-collar jobs, and housing.

Just like the FWD.us lobbyists, the three reporters who wrote the article downplayed the economic impact of migration. Instead, they luridly portrayed described Trump’s mainstream policies as Nazi-like nightmares:

Former President Donald J. Trump is planning an extreme expansion of his first-term crackdown on immigration if he returns to power in 2025 — including preparing to round up undocumented people already in the United States on a vast scale and detain them in sprawling camps while they wait to be expelled.

Many reporters for the New York Times post many excellent articles about the economic abuse and poverty of migrants, such as child labor and rising rents. However, the top editors are pro-migration, so the newspaper does not connect the dots and describe the national economic impact of migration.

For example, a top New York Times editor, Jia Lynn Yang, has shown herself to be a fervent advocate for importing unsullied immigrants to redeem Americans’ homeland from Americans’ sins. In her 2020 pro-migration book, titled One Mighty and Irresistible Tide, Yang wrote:

For those Americans who want ethnic pluralism to be a foundation value of their nation, there is unfinished work. The current generation of immigrants and children of immigrants — like those who came before us — must articulate a new vision for the current era, one that embraces rather than elides how far America has drifted from its European roots. If [immigrants] do not [act], their opponents can simply point out to the America of the last fifty years as a demographic aberration, and they would not be wrong.

The article largely ignored the question of whether or not Trump will follow through on his campaign promises. In his first term, for example, he deferred to pro-establishment deputies and prioritized House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan’s push for tax cuts.

He did not push for a border wall until 2019. Once Trump curbed the inflow of migrants, Americans enjoyed gains in wages during 2020 and 2021.

Those pocketbook gains were destroyed when President Joe Biden’s migration flood — which was championed by FWD.us — flatlined wages and spiked housing costs and inflation.

In a separate interview, Trump told Univision he promised to revive his policy of prosecuting economic migrants — regardless of the children they brought:

We did family separation. A lot of people didn’t come. It stopped people from coming by the hundreds of thousands because when they hear family separation, they say, well, we better not go. And they didn’t go. What we do is we say, come to the United States illegally, come through the borders, and we’re going to give you education, we’re going to give you hospitalization, we’re going to give you medical, we’re going to give you everything like this group did. And people are pouring into our country and you can’t do it.

Trump’s interview with Univision was brokered by Jared Kushner, according to the New York Times.

Extraction Migration

The Biden migration added at least four million workers to the nation’s workforce. That flood was urged and welcomed by business groups because it cuts Americans’ blue-collar wages and white-collar salaries. It also reduces marketplace pressure to invest in productivity-boosting technologyheartland states, and overseas markets. and it reduces economic pressure on the federal government to deal with the drug and “Deaths of Despair” crises.

Biden’s easy-migration policies are deliberately adding the foreigners’ problems to the lengthening list of Americans’ problems — homelessness, low wages, a shrinking middle class, slowing innovation, declining blue-collar life expectancy, spreading poverty, the rising death toll from drugs, and the spreading alienation among young people.


New York Democrats Gift 250,000 Illegal Alien Drivers to Uber, Delivery Companies

The New York state assembly has gifted Uber, DoorDash, Amazon, and business groups a huge new supply of 250,000 illegal immigrant drivers, so depressing wages for the many Americans and legal immigrants who earn their wages by delivering people, cargo, and food to their destinations.

The new labor supply will partly counter President Donald Trump’s “Hire American” immigration policies that are now forcing up Americans’ wages. “Wages are rising at the fastest rate in many decades … [and] they’re rising the fastest for the lowest-income Americans,” President Donald Trump said at his June 18 campaign-opener in Florida.

For example, SimplyHired.com shows wages for delivery drivers in New York ranging from $9 an hour to $25 an hour — although the wages remain far below what is needed for a decent living in New York City, even before the companies start to hire cheaper illegal immigrant drivers.

Amid the inflow of illegal labor, wealthier people who use Uber taxi service will be shielded from the illegals because Uber only hires drivers who have specialized licenses from the Taxi & License Commission. “In NYC, only TLC-licensed drivers who have gone through the city’s background check process are able to complete trips on the Uber platform,” a Uber spokesman said.

The illegals can’t get TLC licenses because they do not have federal Social Security Numbers. “The TLC will continue to provide licenses to people who meet our requirements, which includes a valid social security number, DMV Chauffeur’s license, fingerprinting, and drug testing,” said an executive at the commission, who added, “No human being is illegal.”

But Uber also hires non-TLC drivers for its “Uber Eats” business.

The assembly’s June 17 decision to approve the “Green Light” bill for migrants is being celebrated by the natural alliance of investors, progressives, and illegal migrants who successfully pressured 33 state Senators and Gov. Chris Cuomo to OK the licenses-for-illegals bill on Monday night.

“I’m so honored to be part of the @GreenLightNYDT coalition,” said a tweet from Eddie Taveras, a Latino progressive activist and lobbyist for the billionaire-funded FWD.us advocacy group. “We fought for this bill every step of the way via a grassroots movement centered on inclusion & transparency,” said Tavernas, whose FWD.us employers include numerous wealthy West Cost investors, such as Mark Zuckerberg and Matt Cohler, a partner at the Benchmark Capital investment firm.

In 2011, Cohler helped launch Uber Technologies with an $11 million investment for 11 percent of the company’s shares. That investment is now worth almost $8 billion. Cohler sits on Uber’s board and helped launch FWD.us. Cohler’s Benchmark firm also invested in another food delivery firm, Grubhub.

When lobbying for the drivers’ license bill, Tavernas worked with many left wing and pro-migration groups via Make the Road NY and the New York Immigration Council:

FWD.us was formed to block immigration reforms and to preserve the federal policy of stimulating the economy by annually importing at least one million migrants and at least 500,000 visa workers.

“This will increase public safety, this will bring in $57 million in tax revenue for the state,” said Todd Schult, FWD.us’ director.  The decision will improve the quality of life for migrants, partly because it will ensure “a traffic stop will not lead to their deportation,” he told Breitbart News.

FWD.us supports the inflow of unskilled and skilled illegal and legal immigrants, partly because the migrants serve as both cheap workers and nearby consumers. The two-sided value for investors is spotlighted by FWD.us’s support for DoorDash, which hires people to deliver food by auto, scooters, and bikes.

In a September 2018 statement, the investors denounced President Donald Trump’s plan to cut unskilled immigration into the United States, saying it would immigrant-driven economic growth:

Immigration powers the American economy, and ensuring that immigrant families living here today can thrive means greater benefits for all U.S. residents and our children in the future. The earning potential of immigrants and their contributions to the labor-force and economy grows over time and over generations …

Tony Xu, the founder of DoorDash, embodies this story … in 2013 Tony founded DoorDash, an incredibly successful meal delivery service. Today, DoorDash is valued at $4 billion, using recent investment to expand into 1,200 new cities and to hire 250 new employees, in addition to over 100,000 part-time gigs already created for delivery drivers across the country.

DoorDash’s investors include Sequoia Capital, KPCB, SV Angel, CRV, Khosla, and Y Combinator. Their investments have paid off hugely as the company’s apparent stock value has recently climbed past $12 billion in value. Executives at the first three investment firms helped to create FWD.us, while executives of the second three investors helped fund the lobbying group.

These investors gain from continued immigration of consumers — and especially from the award of drivers’ licenses to the huge population of illegal migrants. A USA Today article described how delivery wages decline when investors can hire additional workers:

In New York, Chris Whyte, 26, started delivering by bicycle five years ago. Back then, with few people in the trade, he says the demand was high. He would average $400 in a two-day weekend shift. But these days, with a flood of available delivery people, he makes about $150 a weekend and is struggling to make a living.

“And that’s if I’m lucky,” Whyte says. “That’s if I’m hauling a–.”

The article, titled “‘Delivery economy’ creates wave of low-wage jobs,” also mentions Mica Griggs, 33, a food-delivery driver in Nashville., Tenn. “Averaging between 30 to 50 deliveries a week, six hours each day, Griggs has supplemented her income with an additional $1,200 to $2,000 a month, depending on the season.” That income averages out to be roughly $25,000 a year for an eight-hour day, ensuring that company wages must be subsidized with the award of extra aid and welfare programs to employees.

In California, where millions of illegal migrants — along with millions of legal immigrants — are also allowed to drive, wages for Uber and Lyft drivers have declined, according to press reports. The Washington Post reported in March:

Drivers say Uber and Lyft wage decreases in recent months of up to 25 percent and dwindling bonuses have squeezed their ability to make ends meet. Workers group Rideshare Drivers United said its strike is largely precipitated by an Uber wage cut in Southern California from 80 to 60 cents per mile, bringing the figure to 2 cents higher than the Internal Revenue Service’s standard mileage rate for cars used for business purposes.

Images [Mostafa Maklad] shared of his weekly earnings over time reflected a pattern of dwindling earnings. For example, Maklad took home $2,139.04 one week in January after driving 68 hours and 7 minutes, making 162 trips. It was far more driving than he had done over a comparable period in September 2016, when he took home $2,313.23 in a week in which he drove 25 fewer hours, making 122 trips.

Uber confirmed it has changed rates in San Francisco and Los Angeles in recent months. Lyft said it has decreased wages based on distance while increasing rates based on time in some cities but not Los Angeles. It did not immediately elaborate on the details of the rate changes, however. The companies’ driver pay rates vary by location.

Overall, any wage loss caused by the extra supply of migrant labor is canceled out by migrants’ extra demand for additional driving services, said Schulte. “Immigration increases demand and everyone knows this,” he said.

Alongside the investors at FWD.us, the New York drivers’ licenses bill was supported by many local businesses because it is “an opportunity to increase these New Yorker’s ability to support local employers and businesses,” said Heather Briccetti, president of The Business Council of New York State. She wrote in May:

We are supporting this bill because it sends a signal to Washington that comprehensive immigration reform is a necessary business issue, and because it’s the right and decent thing to do. It is an opportunity to support billions in annual economic activity, and state and local tax collections, driven by hardworking undocumented families around the state.

That business support was vital for the bill, which is increasingly unpopular, according to June poll of 812 New York voters by the Siena College Research Institute. The poll showed the legislation is opposed by 53 percent of voters, 39 percent of Democrats, 82 percent of Republicans, and 55 percent of independents, despite a loaded question.

The loaded question asked: “I want to ask you about some proposed new laws being debated in Albany and I´d like you to tell me for each whether you support or oppose that proposal … Allowing undocumented immigrants to get a New York driver´s license.” In fact, the supposed “undocumented immigrants” are illegal migrants, most of whom carry false, forged documents.

Immigration by the Numbers

Each year, roughly four million young Americans join the workforce after graduating from high school or university.

But the federal government then imports about 1.1 million legal immigrants and refreshes a resident population of roughly 1.5 million white-collar visa workers — including approximately one million H-1B workers — and approximately 500,000 blue-collar visa workers.

The government also prints out more than one million work permits for foreigners, tolerates about eight million illegal workers, and does not punish companies for employing the hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants who sneak across the border or overstay their legal visas each year.

This policy of inflating the labor supply boosts economic growth for investors because it ensures that employers do not have to compete for American workers by offering higher wages and better working conditions.

The federal policy of flooding the market with cheap, foreign, white-collar graduates and blue-collar labor also shifts enormous wealth from young employees towards older investors. It also widens wealth gaps, reduces high-tech investment, increases state and local tax burdens, and hurts children’s schools and college educations. It also pushes Americans away from high-tech careers and sidelines millions of marginalized Americans, including many who are now struggling with fentanyl addictions. The labor policy also moves business investment and wealth from the Heartland to the coastal citiesexplodes rents and housing costsshrivels real estate values in the Midwest, and rewards investors for creating low-tech, labor-intensive workplaces.

REP. GONZALES: Deaths at Border Reason Enough to Impeach Mayorkas

U.S. Representative Tony Gonzales (R-TX) voiced his support for the latest attempt by Congress to impeach Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Gonzales cited the deaths of innocent American bystanders caused by the border crisis as one reason he supports the measure. Gonzales addressed the issue with Breitbart Texas saying, “From restricting ICE’s deportation authorities to exploiting the parole program, he will stop at nothing to get around our immigration laws.”

Gonzales added, “The Biden administration has tried every trick in the book to create a back door avenue for illegal immigrants.” As reported by Breitbart Texas, the latest border deaths involving innocent commuters on a rural Texas roadway in Gonzales’ district occurred on Wednesday when eight people died in a vehicle crash near Batesville, Texas.

The crash involved the death of a suspected migrant smuggler and five suspected migrants traveling in a vehicle pursued by the Zavala County Sheriff’s Department and other law enforcement authorities on U.S. Highway 57. Also killed in the crash were Jose Lerma, 67, and Isabel Lerma, 65, of Dalton, Georgia, who were traveling to Mexico from their home when the suspected migrant smuggler veered into oncoming traffic, striking their vehicle head-on at a high rate of speed.

Wednesday’s accident is one of many that have occurred on rural Texas highways in Gonzales’ district, which covers more than 800 miles of the border. In March, Maria Alvarez Tambunga and her seven-year-old granddaughter were killed while returning home from a play date in Ozona, Texas. The Tambungas were killed when a migrant smuggler attempting to evade authorities ran a red light and struck their vehicle. Two of the eleven migrants being transported by the smuggler also died in the accident.

The latest attempt to impeach Secretary Mayorkas is a privileged resolution that requires quick action by Congress within two legislative days. Congress will not reconvene until Monday. The impeachment resolution filed by Representative Marjorie Taylor Green (R-Ga.) attributes at least 1424 migrant deaths at the southern border to Mayorkas’ performance as DHS Secretary.

The resolution accuses Mayorkas of ignoring his obligation to maintain operational control of the entire international land and maritime borders of the United States under the Secure Fence Act of 2006. In addition to a myriad of statistics regarding encounters of migrants on the FBI’s Terror Watch List, Special Interest Migrants, and Unaccompanied Migrant Children, the impeachment resolution highlights the more than 70,000 Americans who died in 2022 from Fentanyl poisoning.

The impeachment resolution will force newly elected Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La) to exercise one of several options to address the measure. The options include bringing it to the floor for a vote, referring the measure to a committee, or the presentation of a motion to table.

GRAPHIC PHOTOS: Ranch in Mexican Border City Turned into Cartel Killing Field

Gulf Cartel Ranch
Breitbart Texas / Cartel Chronicles

Cartel gunmen used a ranch in northern Mexico as a killing field where they tortured, murdered, and incinerated a large number of victims with complete impunity. The discovery comes as corrupt government officials at the state and federal level in Mexico refuse to target drug cartels and criminal organizations. At the same time, government officials claim security conditions are improving under their regime.

The gruesome discovery took place this week in the Mexican border city of Reynosa, Tamaulipas, after the activist group “Amor Por Los Desaparecidos” received an anonymous tip that there were human remains on a ranch on the western part of the city. The ranch is located along the highway that connects Reynosa with Nuevo Laredo. The Gulf Cartel seized the property from the owners by force. The group works to find the remains of the thousands of individuals who the Gulf Cartel has abducted in recent years. Their activities this year alone led to the discovery of 16 mass graves in Reynosa alone.

After the group went to the location, they were able to get state authorities to move into the area to collect the human remains and document the crime scene.

The ranch is believed to have been used by Gulf Cartel gunmen to question and torture their victims. A wall with graffiti has several bullet holes and blood where innocent victims are believed to have been sat in line and shot by gunmen.

Throughout the ranch, activists also found numerous sites where gunmen incinerated bodies in open-air pits, as well as in makeshift crematoriums using metal containers where they placed body parts and then filled with fuel or combustible materials.

Throughout the property, activists also found several charred bone fragments. It remains unclear how many victims were killed and incinerated in that location.

As Breitbart Texas reported, the Gulf Cartel has a long history of abducting victims and disposing of their bodies as a way to avoid interference from law enforcement. Government officials do not count those victims in their crime statistics and simply label those cases as forced disappearances — something that allows Mexican politicians to falsely claim crime is decreasing.

Editor’s Note: Breitbart Texas traveled to Mexico City and the states of Tamaulipas, Coahuila, and Nuevo León to recruit citizen journalists willing to risk their lives and expose the cartels silencing their communities.  The writers would face certain death at the hands of the various cartels that operate in those areas including the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas if a pseudonym were not used. Breitbart Texas’ Cartel Chronicles are published in both English and their original Spanish.

Mexican Government Does Nothing as Gulf Cartel Sets Fire to Border Town

Cartel Attack main
Breitbart Texas / Cartel Chronicles

Mexican authorities have abandoned the residents of two towns in the central part of the border state of Tamaulipas despite terrorist attacks by the Gulf Cartel. Gunmen continued to set fire to buildings, abducted innocent victims, and shot up homes.

The attacks began on Tuesday early morning when a convoy of at least 25 vehicles with cartel logos rolled into the towns of Abasolo and Jimenez in the central part of Tamaulipas. The vehicles had logos from the Metros faction of the Gulf Cartel, Cartel Jalisco New Generation, and Old School Zetas.

Once the vehicles rolled in, they began torching several businesses, shooting up homes, painting graffiti on the walls, and they reportedly abducted various individuals out of their homes.

Anonymous locals who spoke with Breitbart Texas revealed that Mexican authorities responded once the cartel gunmen left the area. The responders only helped put out the fires. Since then, authorities have not carried out any raids or enforcement operations in an attempt to target the gunmen responsible for the attacks.

As Breitbart Texas reported, Tamaulipas Governor Americo Villarrea has allowed drug cartels to operate with impunity under his watch. Since his arrival to power late last year, the Gulf Cartel and the Cartel Del Noreste faction of Los Zetas have largely been untouched by state police forces. Villarreal hails from Mexico’s ruling party, Morena, which, under the leadership of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, has benefited from illicit funds being funneled into their campaigns and also allowed criminal organizations to operate freely. As Breitbart Texas reported, Lopez Obrador claimed in 2018 that Mexico’s war on drugs was over. The Mexican president pushed a rhetoric of “Abrazos No Balazos” (Hugs Not Bullets), where his government has worried more about protecting the rights of cartel gunmen and claimed that the answer to crime was to promote social programs instead of using law enforcement agencies to fight them head-on.
