Summary
Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett sarcastically acknowledged a MAGA talking point, claiming Elon Musk is the immigrant “taking our jobs” by acquiring government contracts and critical services.
“There’s an immigrant taking people’s jobs… his name is Elon Musk,” she wrote, listing industries he influences, including national security, fraud oversight, and social services.
Could they have made the headline any more misleading??
For those too lazy to read
“There’s an immigrant taking people’s jobs… his name is Elon Musk,” the lawmaker wrote. “He’s snatching farms, government jobs (even those in which they manage our national security), and definitely those whose jobs are to root out fraud (inspector generals), & those that are keeping us safe (FAA), meals on wheels workers, head start, and the list goes on, so I’ll be the bigger person and admit to MAGA that I was wrong when I said immigrants wouldn’t take our jobs. You were 1000 percent correct.”
That’s the type of language and leadership the Democrats actually need.
clutches pearls but what will the moderates think?!
Chuck can dip his balls in the toliet for all I care.
We have to protect the poor fragile moderates!
US Overton window is weird. Moderate liberals are way to the left of most elected Democrats.
What the actual fuck is this headline?
Fuck whoever wrote that headline and fuck op for posting it
Oh I don’t know, maybe it will get some people to read it that need to have that point made to them.
Smart woman.
When is someone going to find all these jobs? Where do they hide them?
Construction, agriculture, food service and lawn service.
Where did they take them? I know a crap ton of white rednecks that do exactly those jobs for a living
I do as well. I don’t think any jobs were “stolen” from anyone.
Increase the number of participants in an economy, increases both supply and demand for labor, long story short. “Immigrants taking our jobs” is the stupidest talking point in human history.
I see what they did there.
Well, he did “create” a handful of jobs, like the one for Big Balls.
