The Spin

Right narrative

After years of Biden's open borders allowing millions of illegals to flood in and undercut American workers with sub-minimum wages and no benefits, arrests like those at the Hyundai plant in Georgia are essential. These raids enforce laws, boost citizen wages and deter lawbreakers who burden taxpayers and depress jobs for the underprivileged. Uniform enforcement protects the workforce, as even Bernie Sanders once argued against cheap labor imports.

Left narrative

This raid has unnecessarily disrupted a multi-billion-dollar boost for Georgia. Skilled migrant workers, vital to Hyundai's electric vehicle battery project, aren't criminals but key economic contributors. Harsh ICE raids harm businesses, separate families and stifle innovation, as evinced by detained parents in New York. Immigration enforcement shouldn't cripple legitimate industries or punish hardworking migrants driving U.S. progress.
