There may be some changes coming to the Trump administration's approach to immigration enforcement.
President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post on Thursday that both farmers and "people in the Hotel and Leisure business" have said that his approach to immigration enforcement "is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace."
"In many cases the Criminals allowed into our Country by the VERY Stupid Biden Open Borders Policy are applying for those jobs," Trump added. "This is not good. We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA. Changes are coming!"
At a White House event later on Thursday, he said that "we're going to have an order on that pretty soon, I think."
"We can't do that to our farmers," Trump said. "We're going to have to use a lot of common sense."
It comes one day after Tom Homan, the Executive Associate Director of Enforcement and Removal Operations, told Semafor that the administration would begin prosecuting companies that employ immigrants living in the country illegally.

This is horsesh*t from the left Business Insider rag.
No like
If Trump does this, I’ll be pushing for his impeachment. Promises made, promises broken.
Best to deport welfare illegals.
Get out illegals. Period.
If citizens of this country don’t want to do these jobs, they are not needed.
Get all illegals out, then consider controlled programs to allow some farm workers ONLY if those in charge of them pay for their ENTIRE upkeep. No wives and children coming with them. No healthcare costs, etc.
No Like, Alot.
Illegal is illegal. That scum at the top were profiting oughtn’t figure into this.
I had to go on a business trip yesterday out of town. I had to stay in a hotel with my wife. A room for two adults and was left with only one bath towel and no hand towels for two adults. Plus the room was freezing as the AC was turned on lowest setting. I see Latino housekeeping to tell them I need at least two more bath towels and two more hand towels and get something like “solo hablo espanol” and an intense look at my expression for a response. She could understand me but this anti-ICE crap has emboldened them to pretend they don’t speak basic English . I went to the front desk and they had someone bring some towels. I never mentioned her behavior. Not worth any hassle.
We already have visas for jobs. Businesses that hire illegals is totally different.
The murderer of Mollie Tibbetts was a Mexican illegal who worked on a dairy farm in Iowa.
This is what Trump should do...
- shut the border closed
- deport criminals and those living off uncle Sam
- let law abiding, working immigrants stay with some type of work permit
If American hotels and farms cannot pay other than slave wages, they should not remain in business.
There are a number of disturbing signs that his team is either chaotic or infiltrated, with POTUS making some egregious errors.
This would be a rather huge domestic one, likely followed quickly by talk of amnesty.
It’s been rather lonely over here trying to keep POTUS on the straight & narrow...I can’t argue with your statement.
Any farmers lobbying for slave labor imported from Mexico ought to have their subsidies revoked.
We’re giving them entirely free money, and they want slaves sneaking across the border too?
A farmer who fits this profile is clearly THE PROBLEM.
“wages”
Key word.
Frankly, under this administration I don’t understand how they still have jobs and their employers under the microscope for hiring violations.
