Summary

Donald Trump’s aggressive immigration policies, including heightened ICE raids, are disrupting the U.S. agricultural sector.

In California’s Central Valley, a key food-producing region, undocumented farm workers—over half the workforce—are staying home out of fear, leaving crops like citrus unharvested.

Bakersfield saw up to 75% of workers absent, sparking concerns of economic devastation and rising food prices.

ICE is also targeting sensitive areas like schools and churches after rolling back Obama-era protections.

Experts warn these policies could lead to widespread economic repercussions.

        In another comment, I noticed you mention the “hunter’s laptop” fiasco in a way that indicated you’ve fully bought into it.

        I’m not too sure you really should be throwing around the “propagandist” accusation at people when you clearly watch Fox News- I mean. Fox… Entertainment.
