18.8% of illegal immigrants and 25% of working age immigrants is low? It's amusing that boneheaded MAGAs try to hide the fact that 45% of all agricultural workers are undocumented immigrants by distracting attention to another type of statistics. The problem for employers is how to replace 45% of their workforce If they are expelled. They don't care whether illegal immigrants also work in other sectors. Arrogant and ignorant. 😆

I did not said there were none. I said it was not well adapted to some type of crops. Apparently, there's some innovation going on. Are they just being experimented or is there already mass production of reliable products launched? As far as I understand, Trump will expell illegal immigrants quite quickly. Will there be a large number of reliable and efficient robots on the market, at a competitive price, ready to replace quickly the expelled workers?

Ok. What about backing up your other claim that the fact checks by different organisations are inaccurate. Which ones and how are they inaccurate?

It seems she was convinced by the seller that the hat was not too big for her! 😆

So you still have nothing.

I did understand you.. I was pointing out that it was also a significant percentage of agricultural worker, so the impact is concentrated on some types of sectors and jobs, not evenly distributed. Then it depends on what you consider as significant. 18.18% of illegal immigrants work in the agricultural sector (2/11), it's not really insignificant. On top of it, if only the working age population is considered, that is around 7.7 million people, so it's 26% of the undocumented immigrant working age population working in agriculture. https://research.newamericaneconomy.org/report/immigration-and-agriculture/ https://cmsny.org/agricultural-workers-rosenbloom-083022/#:~:text=According to CMS estimates%2C there,undocumented workforce in United States.

Well, it seems you have nothing as all lawsuits failed, and all recounts asked by (and often conducted by) Republicans have confirmed Biden's victory. For the rest, you are unable to back up your claims and o show that the factchecks are innacurate, 🙂

Actually, legal and illegal immigrants often live together and are relatives. Who lives with unauthorized immigrants? Unauthorized immigrants live in 6.3 million households that include more than 22 million people. These households represent 4.8% of the 130 million U.S. households. Here are some facts about these households in 2022: In 86% of these households, either the householder or their spouse is an unauthorized immigrant. Almost 70% of these households are considered “mixed status,” meaning that they also contain lawful immigrants or U.S.-born residents. In only about 5% of these households, the unauthorized immigrants are not related to the householder or spouse. In these cases, they are probably employees or roommates. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/07/22/what-we-know-about-unauthorized-immigrants-living-in-the-us/

Whining and lying about Biden's 2020 victory (a recall of the big lie), whining about Dems not having been nice with him 😆 Lying about Panama, inflation, prisons being emptied to send immigrants to the U.S, the price of apples, tariffs, etc.... 😆 https://www.politifact.com/article/2025/jan/20/live-fact-check-trump-inauguration-day-president/ https://usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2025/01/20/donald-trump-inauguration-fact-check-live-updates/77727712007/ https://edition.cnn.com/2025/01/19/politics/fact-check-trump-false-claims-election-immigration-dc-rally/index.html

However, the rest of the country, that is the private sector, did not come back to the pre-pandemic level and policies. Actually, the share of remote working is expected to increase in 2025. https://www.forbes.com/advisor/business/remote-work-statistics/ And as posted before, the share of remote worker is higher in the private sector than in the federal administration. https://www.cbo.gov/publication/60235#_idTextAnchor044 It may be relevant to change the current regulation, but there is no hurry to lift it before a new regulation (if needed) be voted.

Sorry, I was a bit short and imprecise. Let's formulate it differently. There was a trend in the MAGA sphere to advocate for decreasing support to Ukraine. It indirectly helped Russia, for example, when aid to Ukraine was delayed at Trump's request. Of course, it was also motivated by the will to oppose anything Biden was doing. Iran being a designated evil for Trump and most MAGAs, Ukraine fighting against the Pasdaran may contribute to a significant change of attitude.
