VIDEO: Businesses Across U.S. Close for ‘A Day Without Immigrants
Breitbart ^ | 02/03/2025 | Amy Furr

Many businesses across America will be closed Monday for “A Day Without Immigrants” to protest President Donald Trump’s deportation policies.

Workers in those businesses who are participating will stay at home, CBS News reported Sunday, noting some workplaces in Minnesota were shutting down for the allotted time.

“The movement highlights immigrant workers’ contributions and their everyday impact on businesses, from restaurants to retail shops,” the outlet said.

Several restaurants in Washington, DC, will also reportedly be closed for the day, and NBC Washington said the demonstration also urges immigrants to stay home from school.

In addition, several Chicago businesses are also keeping their doors closed to join the protest that “comes as the new Trump administration conducts promised arrests of undocumented immigrants for deportation, including across the Chicago area,” Fox 32 reported Monday.

I go to a local McDonalds each morning for iced coffee. I am friendly with the manager. She said this morning her whole staff did not show up because of this BS. She was pissed.

Tons of us are Immigrants. Who has a problem with legal immigrants? The issue, as seems to be related, is ILLEGAL immigrants. They should have a day of no shows for ‘Illegal Immigrants’. Then the customers, the employers, and ICE would be aware.

The jackasses who don’t pay taxes did this once before. It didn’t work out. Americans found out they could get there own chips and salsa. Nobody could tell the difference. Stupid Retards.

Does that include the Marijuana groves in northern California, the fentanyl dealers in Oakland and the child prostitutes in Sacramento?

Asking for a friend.

I’ll be curious to see if any local businesses pull this stunt.

So I’ll know which never to go to again.

The American major media venues love to deny and ignore the term “illegal” whenever they discuss “immigration”. It is an intentional assualt on the sovereignty of our nation, as they are knowingly or ignorantly working shills for the “open borders” agenda, sponsored by the Leftists, George Soros, and all those assosiciated with them on the matter of illegal immigration.

Any good restaurants don’t care about mondays. Slowest day for restaurants. Now let’s see them close down on Friday or Saturday and put their money where their mouth is.

These “businesses” are beginning to worry what will happen without Pedo Joe’s 20 million running around and spending American tax dollars like a bunch of drunken pirates.

I would tell her to fire those people and get a new crew.
They probably rob her blind when she is not looking.
