For years, working-class Americans were told that unchecked immigration did not hurt their wages. That was false. Turns out the laws of supply and demand work in the labor market as well.

Any person who used to work in construction could have told you that. Its why general labor completely moved to illegals in most large metros. Wages were not keeping pace with inflation due to increased labor supply. Deport them all and wages will go up for working poor and a large percent will move off government subs because they will be able to provide by working.

Hiring of the undocumented immigrate only undermines the legitimate business.... just my thoughts

Checked immigration is what we want. We need to control the fate of our country so that it is not controlled for us by those who wish to exploit us.

🚨 BREAKING: Treasury Secretary SCOTT BESSENT just summed up the migration crisis for America perfectly. "The big LIE was that this kind of immigration didn't hurt working people. Now economists have come out and said, oh what a surprise, even the laws of supply and demand work in the low end labor market!" "For YEARS, Wall Street has done well. Now it's time for Main Street to do well, and they can both do well."

Under President Trump’s leadership, we are delivering results for working Americans. While the Biden administration left the bottom 50% behind, we’re focused on helping Main Street rise alongside Wall Street. This administration is committed to prosperity for all.

The divide in America is not political—it's a class divide separating the elites from the working class. Trump's economic agenda—a tight labor market and tariffs—raises the wages of working class Americans, which is why Wall Street, the Democrats, and their rich base hate it.

I’m not going to take firefighting advice from economic arsonists like Hakeem Jeffries and Democrats. The One Big Beautiful Bill is for Main Street; it increases wages and addresses the affordability crisis for Americans, thanks to the leadership of President Trump.

.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 down the wages for Americans who work with their hands for a living, right? These people are unbelievably generous to a point? But America's working class realized that their own children were being disinherited so that the elites in this country could hire cheap nannies and cheap landscapers and cheap people to make their salads and clean their homes and to the other things that they considered to be beneath their dignity to do. Now, working class Americans are very, very good-hearted people. When they see the chaos on the streets, they are going to tell pollsters I don't like that. But if you think for a second, that means that they're going to give power back to the Democrats on something like immigration, the Democrats who opened the border and justified the open border for four years and now pretend that never happened in say, of course, we need a closed border, I have another thing coming for you."

We are short 4 million units of housing in this country. We need to declare a national housing emergency so that we can fix the supply and demand problem that hurts working class Americans first.

.Jack Posobiec, in the “new media seat” at today’s White House press briefing: “There's been this media narrative out there that while we see the — the data on tax refunds, that it's not good enough. that the tax season has been too soft. What is your response to this media narrative regarding the tax refunds?” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “Look, it's been an incredible tax season. We have done more with less at the IRS that we have moved over millions of taxpayers to digital tax accounts and that leaves us able to service more taxpayers in person and on the phone. And as we can see, the economy was very strong. We are seeing growth across the board in all areas. And the as Kelly said, you know, small business, Main Street are the really the big beneficiaries. And this is what they don't want you to hear, that Wall Street always does great. This administration is focused on parallel prosperity and bringing prosperity back to Main Street. And that starts with people keeping more of their money.”
