He'll be focusing on undocumented folks in blue states, first, for sure. But economists are already predicting skyrocketing grocery prices as labor scarcity is forcibly introduced by these deportations, either way.

My guess, he focuses purely on "shock and awe" by targeting blue cities with workplace raids rather than just going to literally every farm in the south.

In my blue state, they’d have to use purely federal resources. Local law enforcement is not required to cooperate

Spoiler for you: they'll comply and cooperate. Police aren't known as bastions and liberal policies and agendas. They're overwhelming MAGAts

The police are not your friends

Police are just as lazy as anyone else. While there will be a few turncoats, I’d expect them to generally go along with “you can snub a fed and do nothing”

[-] plz1@lemmy.world 7 points 22 hours ago

ICE and DEA are probably in every state already.

[-] AA5B@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

I’m sure they are in every state, and can do enough to make headlines, continue stoking outrage. However they don’t have the manpower to actually take it seriously, or to investigate beyond what big name they want to use for propaganda

[-] plz1@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

I know. The headlines are all 47 will care about. As is tradition.
