In the bathroom, fighting a battle
The same jackasses that are quick to shout i Am FeEdiNg MeRiCa are the same jackasses that are quick to also shout build the wall. With out migrant labor all we would have are piles of grain and no harvested fruit. Migrants are who are truly feeding America.
The irony of all the anti immigrant rhetoric is that as a direct result of all the restrictions on immigration they’ve turned a largely seasonal migrant workforce into a permanent immigrant workforce because it’s now too risky to leave the country in the off season. A more open border, which of course could include documentation, would virtually end permanent undocumented immigration and put and end to all the cartel bullshit surrounding it, and one thing I keep hearing is that human trafficking is bad.

Of course none of these guys think they’re the problem because they all use staging companies that provide the labor or have SSNs on file for the workers, so they can lie to themselves and say they’re not the ones using illegal labor.

Fuck it, I’m gunna make some Thai food.

Due to the expected High Winds tomorrow I moved the camper away from the Redwood trees in the back yard (all I need is branches hitting it from 100' up to eff it up) out to the front driveway where the chances of anything hitting it are very low.

League for Haley tonight. Qual 1st; Final 1st. She got spun/punted in the last lap, so it was corrected in the results, but she wouldn't have gotten worse than 2nd anyways, as they were so far ahead.

Was a shit show with all the new league kids though. Teen league was chaotic and scary...

The more you can marginalize migrants the cheaper they are. The knuckledraggers may not realize it but that is very much part of the plan.
I forget the name of it but there's a law in california that agricultural workers are 'exempt' from mandatory evacuation orders during fires. It comes up every summer when there's an inferno about to kill everybody. These agricompanies can literally force people to stay in fields with flames approaching.

Good ole labor friendly socialist california!
