Stephen Miller Lied About Migrant Jobs Going to American Workers

Trump’s broken promise that mass deportations would equal jobs for gringo workers is now peer-reviewed. Removing migrants actually lost jobs for the NATIVE-BORN workforce.

WASHINGTON — The promise was simple, and Stephen Miller has been making it for years: clear out the undocumented workers, and American workers get their jobs back. The data is now in. The promise was a lie.

A new working paper published this month by the National Bureau of Economic Research — the first comprehensive, causal national study of the labor market effects of Trump’s immigration enforcement surge — finds no evidence that heightened ICE activity has produced job gains for U.S.-born workers. None. Not in agriculture. Not in construction. Not in manufacturing. Not anywhere.
What it did find is a chilling effect so severe it is contracting entire industries.

NALCAB Statement on executive orders

The following is Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum’s address to the Barcelona Summit in Defense of Democracy on 18 April 2026.

Thank you very much, President Sánchez. Thank you for the invitation. Thanks to all my colleagues—presidents, prime ministers, Gabriel Boric.
I come to the Summit for Democracy on behalf of a hardworking, creative, and resilient people, but above all a deeply generous people—a people that has learned to resist without hatred, to defend its rights without ceasing to respect others, to believe in peace even when history has placed difficult trials and tribulations before it.
I come on behalf of a caring people, even amid adversity, a profoundly humanist people, that resists individualism, rejects discrimination, and refuses with dignity to look at others with contempt

The documented history of ICE abuses.

When Congress and the media claim they did not know about ICE abuses, they are lying.

Whether I am being interviewed by a national mainstream media outlet, speaking with political leaders, a fellow substacker or just meeting people in everyday scenarios, the comment most often made to me is: “ICE was honorable before Trump got ahold of them.”
