Enimigo.
Just stay in your own countries. No problemo.
Slavery lives on….
Clearly criminals are taking advantage of Biden & the Democrat's open border policy it’s horrific
Let me guess the defendants are Magats
Looks like south is rising again
Abhorrent.
Makes you truly wonder how the African American slave industry really existed when this type of Euro- demonic mind set was a standard operational procedure times a 1,000! Critical Race Theory in Plain SIGHT! Seems to be alive and thriving!!
Where are the faces of the guilty people why don’t you show their faces or the business pictures
＃加速主义 2020年，美国忙着掩盖疫情，甩锅，退群，制裁，现在又开始公然赖账，这样能使美国再度强大？加速离衰落罢了。全面协议，《中导条约》，联合国高层等一系列多边协定与多边组织，连攸关全球民众健康福祉和公共卫生安全的世卫组织都可以一脚踢开。
This is due to the Biden’s open borders FACT and I guarantee there’s many more like this because of the millions yeah legally coming across the border because there is no way to keep track of them. The cartels love Joe Biden😉
Farms need to be confiscated through asset forfeiture and turned over to the workers. That will stop this madness.
What's pennies?
They pay Jamaicans and Filipinos at GTMO $2.00 Naval Base Guantanamo
an hour they work six days a week. Where's that story?
Hypocrites
Nothing new here… cheap labor, no one will do this work to feed the US and they don’t speak the language. It’s been going one for decades.
😂 lemme guess these are white employers. Of course they hate immigrants especially Hispanics but yet they use them as cheap labor and exploit them. Go figure! And on top of that white people claim Hispanic people are taking their jobs. Please be my guest and work the fields.
Fake
Democrats finally caught ! ! !
How about supposed Christian Groups, that take advantage of men fresh out of jail or or prison, made to work, 8 to 10 hours a day, with roach infested housing, barely any food. But yet the man in charge lives great, eating steak and him and his kid sporting the latest Nike's. Hello Freedom Seekers out of Missouri.
Well I'm a Trump man Mike savage and republican all the way. But I hope these dirty S O BS GET THE MAXIMUM SENTANCE. I NO IF I WAS SITTING ON THIS CASE I WOULD NOT ACCEPT A PLEA BARGIN.. IT WOULD BE 240 MONTHS MINIMUM SENTANCE. EXCEPT FOR THE ONES WHO SING LIKE BON JOVIE.
This is "common" in Georgia
Disgusting,there’s no words for this
Welfare is a better system. 😶
we keep these people in cages at the border pick and chose who you need for work right politicians go view for the publicity look at me I'm working for you and this is the outcome like what you get people your next in the cage slavery alive and well in America. sure sucks if you want my opinion.
See, Gregg Abbott?
You're doing it wrong.
Bus them to Florida and Georgia
Governor Kemp must have forgotten about these suffering souls!! Shame on him and Georgia slave owners!!😥
Im actually disappointed that Americans arnt rioting in the capital over this .
Here's what America needs to realize . These people are scared of police for fear of being deported and facing death all over again. Idky Americans dont care about Mexicans . Yet they'll go to war over BLM and the LGBTQ community . In America Mexicans are always 3rd in terms of importance to the GOV
There are many slaves!! America isn't the land of the free
They were paid so not even close to slavery.
Deport these slaver to Mexico and mark them as dead in America so they can never return legally and all of their assets frozen.
We're all slaves to the dollar in tax cuts for the rich economy.
I'm an immigrant but that modern slavery been going on for decades.
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
YES. Its HUMAN TRAFFICKING! It is by definition. GO special operations blooming onion! EXCELLENT. See, the Democrats are NOT WEAK SOULESS SILENT BY STANDERS. YOU ARE ALL ACTUALLY BLUNTLY DOING AND INDICTING. BE BRAVE AND BLUNT!!
Hmmm, red states doing what the do best 🤡
Wtf, this is ridiculous but not surprising that there are still evil and heartless people among us.
This happening in a red state, ~shocking~
Please the only thing we can do, is put those people who did, this in jail. They will be forced to work for the state.
Thats justice:
Probably got the idea from other countries doing it. They are just trying to make America Great Again. We have about 5 million jobs people do not want. We need more immigrant workers and not exploit them.
He'll the blacks and American Indians were treated way worse
White Christians I'm sure who believe all life is precious
BLAME THE DEMOCRAT'S OPEN BORDERS
Trumpies at their finest
