"In the 1930s, state and local governments deported 400,000 to 500,000 people of Mexican descent, promising to create jobs for Americans during the Great Depression," wrote economist Michael Ettlinger.

"What actually happened? The employment of native-born Americans dropped — and their unemployment went up. American workers ended up with worse jobs and, if anything, their wages were lower." #VPDebate

Vance falsely asserted that mass deportation will be “really good for our workers” when in reality it’ll lower wages and cost jobs of US-born workers, economist say.

Past mass deportation efforts made similar false promises to US-born workers👇🏽 bostonglobe.com/2024/09/03/opi #VPDebate

#Trump’s detailed plot to overturn the results of the election was brazen & a major threat to American #democracy. Because of it, even today, millions of Trump supporters believe the last election was stolen, & that primes the public for new attempts at #ElectionSubversion. Trump’s new running mate, Sen #JDVance, had to go along w/the lie at Tue’s #VPdebate, refusing to admit the incontrovertible #truth that #TrumpLost the 2020 election.

🧵(118/) #ReasonsNotToVoteForTrump
During the #VPDebate, Gov #Walz brought up how #CaptBoneSpurs dismissed the concussive brain injury of some 200 U.S. troops in an #Iranian missile attack as mere "headaches".

Following #Iran's missile attack on #Israel that same day, #MangoMussolini was asked if maybe he should have done more to respond to Iran in 2020, and AGAIN he dismissed the troop's injuries in 2020 as just "headaches". 😡
