South Korea chooses to bring ‘exhausted and in-shock’ workers home after plant raid
It has now emerged that Trump asked his officials to “encourage” the detained South Korean workers to extend their stay in the country and train American employees, foreign ministry officials in Seoul said at a briefing.
The president “emphasised that the detained Korean nationals were skilled workers and suggested they either remain in the U.S. to contribute to training the American workforce or be returned to South Korea, depending on Seoul’s stance”, a South Korean official said, according to the Financial Times.
Many of the arrested workers were exhausted and in shock and foreign minister Cho Hyun suggested that they instead return immediately to their home country. They could be allowed to go back to the U.S. for work later if necessary, the officials said.
Amerikkka is being run by seriously fucking stupid Nazis. when will their unbound idiocy come back to bite them? Hopefully soon! It’s going to be eternally embarrassing if this clown regime actually cements anything long into the police state. My money is on the idea that it will all spectacularly come crashing down, and soon!
its interesting that 47 would think that its OK to encorage reshoring of manufacturing via stealing training and IP of foreign firms. They are not stupid.
This is the managerial talent that bankrupts casinos.
The Mob bosses’s idiot nephew with a loud mouth that pushed his way to a managerial position even though he has no talent at all but thinks he is the smartest person in the room because everyone is afraid of him and his family.
Hell, I’d take Christopher Moltisanti for president over this jabroni any day of the week
The joke of the Trump Taj Mahal and Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino was that Trump still made money on both operations. What ultimately bankrupted the casinos was all the unpaid debts and obligations and liens by contractors.
He’d hire people, refuse to pay them when the work was complete, and take them to court over every little thing. The business was siloed off from Trump’s personal holdings, so the only thing anyone could collect on was a building that had liabilities far in excess of revenues (which Trump was embezzling anyway). By the time Taj Mahal was sold off and Plaza Hotel and Casino was demolished, they were underwater several times their book value.
This was a miserable way to run a business. And it wasn’t a particularly savvy way to make money long term. But as a Bust Out, it went relatively smoothly. The state officials of New Jersey played along in exchange for handsome contributions to their election funds, the regulators stayed out of Trump’s hair(piece), and the Trump family left the market richer than when they started, which is all they really cared about.
So, same strats but now the casino is a (increasingly “former”) superpower that can make war.
Yeah, that checks out.
What I really don’t understand is how destroying the country will benefit these ultra-rich, if like, say, the dollar becomes worthless and the economy stagnates into freefall a la Great Depression.
Do I not understand global economics of the ultra-elite or is there really some Epstein-crypto-island-2.0 where gold bars are the only currency, where they’re planning on skittering off to when they’ve left the rest of the planet a smoldering ruin?
Seriously, they’re the greediest most self-serving liars this side of Hell, I don’t think “Watch it all burn just for lulz” is the actual endgame and yet they’re so ridiculously inept and violent that seems to be the only logical outcome that can be seen miles away and closing fast…
The New York Times showed in 2020 that he’s also been using his hundreds of millions of dollars in “debts” to avoid paying taxes for literally decades now as well.
He’s provably a sham from top to bottom and his fans love it.
Also the money laundering got a little too sloppy so his russian mob handlers told him to burn it.
If I was one of those workers, the only way I’d set foot on American soil again is on a pilgrimage to piss on Trump’s grave.
If you get special tours to do it for all these pos graves you could for sure get the tourism up
you can thank that maga lady for tipping off ice.
Step 1: Tariffs the entire world. Encourage companies to build factories in the country to avoid said tariffs. Step 2: Raid and arrest people sent to build said factories. Step 3: ??? Step 4: Profit???
You forgot “Tariff the raw materials not available in the US that the factories would need.”
funny thing it was a maga candidate of the state that tipped ICE, i think the locals are pissed at the magat for doing this.
“C’mon baby, it was just one little arrest! It didn’t mean anything!”
Hearing this in the South Park Trump Voice.
“Relax, guuuuy!”
imagine all the vehicles made by people in place where the environment is not taken care of with high levels of pollution everywhere that also does not properly fund education and has just made sure that all the properly trained people from some other country that could work/train would not want to work there that could potentially be on United States roads soon
fetal alcohol syndrome is also still a big issue so there is that too
think about the factory close where currently staying that has had multiple fatal accidents this year with one of those involving a forklift having over thousand pounds on it that took a curve too hard and all the load fell on someone with only the head undamaged still talking
where are we heading in the United States? back to no standards like when that chicken plant caught fire in North Carolina
good ol’ days had some moments sure but overall they really sucked
And they’re real big on putting children to work in those plants again, soon too!
Right after they’re done gutting OSHA as “government overreach that limits innovation.”
Lmao
Their lack of intelligence, tact, and humanity are all genuinely breathtaking at times.
And they always manage to sink to every lower depths of idiocy.
As long as the money continues to flow upwards.
At this point? … the idiocy is not in their actions … the idiocy is in the inaction of the rest of the country.
I can only stomach saying how stupid someone is for so long … after a while, I start looking at the crowd of people standing around the idiot as they let him get away with everything.
The probelm with people like trump is that hes too stupid to know hes stupid and too evil to care about anyone else.
Abusers do that.
Conservatives are so fucking dumb.
Constantly shooting themselves in the dick and then yelling about how its the “radical left”
Or the neck
Nah his neck just kinda did that.
Also, let’s not forget that this was all due to a salty, ignorant Trump support running for Georgia office.
So much own goaling here.
…Isn’t that what most of them were doing anyway? They were setting up equipment and training people up?
but they are fleeing back to South korea, so they are leaving things unfinished.
Yeah because they got attacked by ICE. But if the alleged reason for attacking them was “you need to train Americans”, and that’s exactly what they were doing, then that smells like a BS reason. But it’s ICE, so that tracks.
apparently these are the technical b1 visas, so they are there to setup the machinery, and the technical easpect of the plant.
And that’s probably not a job Americans could easily do.
“Here are the manuals for the machinery”
“It’s all in Korean”
“…lol”
the proprietary tech is probably korean, so they probably cant as easily operate it without thier help anyways
Yes, but brown people bad
That’s not even the right racism!
The chart has spoken.
