.Batya Ungar-Sargon: "[I]t's really important to remember the open border was class warfare against the American working class because all of these 10 million people who streamed across the border ended up either on welfare or working, which meant that they were competing with Americans for jobs and driving...

Biden's open border was class warfare on the American working class, who'd been disinherited in their own country so elites could access cheap labor. That's Trump's base. They may tell pollsters they don't like ICE, but I wouldn't mistake that for an endorsement of the Democrats on immigration.

The majority of Americans want every illegal migrant deported. Mass deportations are a lifeline for the working class, because illegal labor undercuts their wages. It's rich Democrats who are up in arms that their open border jobs program is coming to an end. Great joining @cnn:

Batya Ungar-Sargon on Tennessee’s 7th District special election: “Even if the Republicans win, it's already a disaster because they lost a 20-point lead. And I think the reason for that is because we've seen this real political realignment. It used to be that the Republicans were the party of the rich and the Democrats were party of labor.” “And we know that rich people turn out more to vote. They're much more engaged. They're high propensity voters. Now, Republicans represent the majority of working class Americans and low propensity voters and the Democrats represent the majority of rich Americans and educated Americans who are much more likely to turn out certainly on off-year elections.” “The Republicans absolutely need to understand this. It's everything you said. They need candidates who care about them, who show up and speak about the issues that matter to them the way that Donald Trump did because the Democrats now have that advantage built in which is the advantage of representing very wealthy Americans.” Abby Phillip: “And not to mention that I don't know that it's going to be enough to tell the people that she hates country music.”

🚨 BREAKING: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis just went on an impassioned rant against Democrats obsessed with illegal aliens and it hits HARD. "We have angel moms in Florida...these Democrats have NEVER done ANYTHING to show any type of sympathy with the victims of illegal immigration." "The things that [Dems] are passionate about - have NOTHING to do with AMERICANS. They are VERY passionate about allowing people that have come to this country illegally, to remain indefinitely, and even running interference for criminal aliens." "They devote all their energy and attention to protesting people who are trying to *SOLVE* the issue of illegal immigration." "And I've just noticed that I don't see them fighting for the citizens. I see them fighting for their own ideology and their ideology is not effective or popular." "Man, this is really what they care about. They really care about an open border. They really want people to be able to not have consequences for coming into the country illegally." "And I just think it's bizarre that THAT is something they are so unbelievably passionate about. And it really is putting the people of this country last." 💯 Ron DeSantis

AOC says once illegal immigrants are all deported, corporations will repurpose ICE detention centers for rounding up other groups of people so their profits can continue to grow. Podcast host Ilana Glazer agrees, says people are "turning the dial up on the genocidal framework" for black and transvestite people, and eventually this will affect the white working class -- with billionaires wiping out the majority population in the country, supposedly to increase their profits. "I think the story that's sold is to the white working class that they will never come for you. But they're seeing now with AI and data centers that they are coming for them and they are coming for their homes, their water, their air, for growth."

🚨 NOW: JD Vance absolutely NAILS IT "I always find it INTERESTING when socialists tell me that they really stand up for working people and they want to protect working people, but they want to abolish ICE. And so what does that mean? That means a FLOOD of low wage immigrants coming into this country competing for wages against the working people, black, white and brown of the United States of America!" "You do NOT care about working people if you refuse to enforce the border, stop pretending that you do!" 🔥 "I was raised by patriotic Christian blue collar Democrats who loved this country, but they weren't Republicans. But I feel, unfortunately, that those patriotic blue collar Democrats, they increasingly don't have a place in that party anymore, at least among the elected senior leadership ranks."

For the last decade, the media, Democrats, and Never Trump Republicans have denounced Trump as a tool of the rich and of Wall Street. Trump’s populism was fake, they said. He doesn’t really care about the working class. He just cares about himself and his Wall Street buddies. Trump’s tariffs and Wall Street’s reaction to them prove that all of that was a lie, says Batya Ungar-Sargon, the author of two important recent books, one about the media (Bad News) and the other about the working class (Second Class). “Liberation Day should go down in history as the day that finally put to bed the myth that Donald Trump only cares about the rich,” she said in a new podcast with me today. “It's the exact opposite. He is waging class warfare on Wall Street for the sake of the American working class. And to punish him, Wall Street is literally just shorting him. They're shorting his agenda. They are betting against America, they are betting against the president because they cannot stand the idea that there is a person with power in America was not on his knees in front of Wall Street asking them, ‘And what would you like next?’ the way both parties have been doing for 60 years.” The media has been even worse. “Our economic policy for the last 60 years was put in place by people who are too lazy to get out from behind their laptops,” she said. “They imagine that nobody would want to work in a factory because they would rather die than work in a factory. They would rather die than watch their own children work in a factor or clean their own toilets. So they imagine that no one would want to do these things. And so they shipped manufacturing overseas and imported a slave caste.” Over half of Americans have money in the stock market, and so we shouldn’t discount the pain many people are feeling right now or the possibility that Trump’s tariffs could backfire, cause a recession, and lower living standards. But, as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has noted, “The top 10% of Americans own 88% of the stock market. The next 40% owns 12% of the stock market. The bottom 50% has debt. They have credit card bills. They rent their homes. They have auto loans. And we've got to give them some relief.” The problem isn’t just the inequality. It’s the lack of solidarity. The wealthiest Americans don’t seem to care about the poorest. “Last year,” noted Bessent, “the summer of 2024, Americans took more European vacations than they had in history. [And] Summer of 2024, more Americans were using food banks than ever in history.” Creating more purchasing power for the poorest Americans would be good for growth, not bad, argue tariff supporters, including Bessent, Oren Cass, and Ungar-Sargon. “The top 10% now control over 60% of our GDP. They are not the ideal consumer for the central components of the American dream: housing, healthcare, education, and retirement. They are the only consumers who can afford those things. So the price for those items is tagged to their incomes.” Bessent says something similar. “I don't think the bottom 50% of Americans are losers, I think the system hasn't worked for them. I think that they are winners. It's just a bad system. So we are going to fix the system. They want good jobs. They want their kids to do better than they do. They want to own a home. They want to pay down their debt. This isn't hard. We can do this in the next four years.” And bringing a significant amount of manufacturing back to the United States is a national security imperative recognized by Republicans and Democrats. “We literally rely on our greatest adversary for the tools that we would need to fight it should it come to that,” said Batya-Sargon. “They exported a deadly pandemic, and we relied on them to produce the vaccines, the pharmaceuticals, and the protective gear we needed to combat it. This is like a South Park episode only without the humor. It's so obviously absurd and yet nobody had the guts to do anything about this.” Please subscribe now to support Public's award-winning reporting, read the rest of the article, and watch the full video!

WOW: Former Democrat goes scorched earth on CNN panel—and obliterates the left’s biggest lie about Trump’s deportation plan. 🔥 This is a must watch. Batya Ungar-Sargon just destroyed the claim that Trump only planned to deport “violent criminals.” Batya Ungar-Sargon unloaded: “I hear this talking point a lot from Democrats that Donald Trump ‘misled’ the American people and somehow said he was only going to deport violent criminals.” “At EVERY SINGLE rally that I watched, he said, we are going to have the largest deportation operation in American history.” And she explained exactly why that message worked. “And the reason he did that is because that position has majority support with the American people, and that position is what got him the majority of working class people.” Then she dropped the hammer: “Because immigration is a topic that divides the working class from the elites.” Here is the real reason the Democrat elites are up in arms about Trump’s deportations. “The elites are the consumers of low wage labor, and when you guys say they’re taking people from the community, what you mean is they’re taking people from the workforce, people who undercut the wages of American workers,” “Which is why the working class flipped from the Democrats to the Republicans.”

Context matters. You call it 'dumb,' but you are ignoring the brutality of that moment. The borders were closed to African workers trying to return to their families and jobs, yet the airports were open for international travel. Why is the African working class criminalized for crossing a colonial line to survive, while the sky is open for the elite? 'Creative ways' was a call for survival against a system that hates its own people. That wasn’t border control, it was self-hate!!

Democrat Strategist Yemisi Egbewole TORCHES Graham Platner: “We have lost the plot on authenticity. To think Graham Platner is cosplaying working class. He wears it like a Halloween costume, and that has been placed on him by the same people who have run a lot of progressive candidates across the nation. In this pursuit of getting to know the everyman, we keep picking these people who I think show the worst parts of society. If I am to believe that Graham Platner can relate to everyday Americans, then that means I am to believe that everyday Americans are okay with Nazi tattoos because they get them accidentally when they're drunk, or because they served in the military, they have very regressive views on race and on gender. I just cannot accept the fact that to gain the working class, we have to dress up people who show the lowest of our values.”

It’s not an either or” Byron Donalds “Nobody said an inconvenience, you have a responsibility to deport illegal aliens. And the president is going through that process right now. And let's be very clear, the previous administration, they abused every process there is. Under border laws to allow more than 10 million people into the country illegally. And this is a burden on all Americans so the president is doing his job. It is sick to refer to Americans who are ICE agents as Gestapo. Governor, you're wrong. You need to apologize to these agents. They're doing their jobs. They are Americans. They serve this country with honor and decency and respect. Do not diminish their work simply because you tried to make a cheap point that you could tweet.“
