Hold on tight because the Trump administration is not slowing down on immigration cracks! After a massive raid at a Hyundai factory in Georgia where 475 people were arrested, White House official Tom Homan fired up the engines to hunt more workplaces employing undocumented workers. Speaking on CNN's 'State of the Union,' Homan warned, "No one hires an illegal alien out of the goodness of their heart. They hire them because they can work them harder, pay them less, undercut the competition that hires U.S. citizen employees." This means, according to him, companies want to save money by exploiting workers without papers, shaking up fair business everywhere. The raid mostly caught South Korean workers, and the South Korean government quickly responded that these folks will be sent back after completing the needed paperwork. An ICE official revealed that many detainees had tourist or business visas but no work permits, with some crossing borders illegally or overstaying. This crackdown follows weeks of tough talk from President Trump and his team, even hinting at sending National Guard troops to cities like Chicago to tackle crime and immigration. Fun fact or firestorm? Trump took to his social media to share a meme inspired by the 1979 film "Apocalypse Now," showing the Chicago skyline in flames with helicopters buzzing overhead. This image caused a huge uproar, with many saying it looked like a war zone. But Homan jumped to explain on CNN that the message was misunderstood. "We're only going to war with criminals and those violating immigration laws," he said. While many business groups and opponents remind us that industries like farming and meatpacking depend on immigrant workers, the Trump administration is pushing forward, saying it's time to clean house. This battle over immigration isn’t just about laws—it’s shaking cities, workplaces, and even Hollywood movie memes!
