Democratic Party rising star Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, argued that Americans need illegal immigrants because they do the work that the college-educated in this country won't do.
Crockett reportedly made the comments while speaking at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival on March 8.
In a video clip that went viral on Friday, Crockett made the point that Americans don't send their kids to college in the hope that they'll end up picking crops and cleaning hotel rooms, but that's what illegal immigrants do.
"How many of you are sending your kids t
to college?" Crockett asked the crowd.

Illegals are taking the jobs that uneducated drop outs and poor blacks need.

There are machines that do most of the 'pickin'. Combines and tractors with attachments. Even cotton. And they have mechanical tampers (kids used to hop in the back of a cotton bin and jump up and down to tamp it down. They got paid a little bit for this.)
We don't need illegals to do any job. Americans built this country with hard work. We can continue to do so.

No worries there. These jobs are now open to fired DEI administrators and staff. Perhaps the only other jobs for which they have any qualifications.

If any white person or Republican had said what racist Democrat Jasmine Crockett said, there would be shrieking cries of racism and endless media headlines about the hateful stereotypes used to describe migrants.

Chances are that in addition to knowing how to clean and cook, they know how to read and write. In contrast to our usual liberal arts college educated citizens sitting in Mom and Dad’s spare room.

The Mexican workers seen in American farm fields come in legally under the temporary agriculture work program for foreign nationals. At one time known as the Bracero program. The temporary H-2A visa. They work the fields, they go home, they come back. It's huge.

Hopefully the leftist and progressive Democrats will appoint Jasmine Crockett as their next leader, as it will be fun from there on out!

Stop paying every Tom, Dick and Harriet Welfare. My dear Pastor used to say GOD put a sensor between the bellybutton and the backbone and when they get too close together, it tells the brain to get up off the backside and go to work.Our goobermunt pays millions of low skilled able bodied Americans not to work who used to do the work the illegal Invaders now do. Heck, the Invaders have even wised up and now the taxpayer is forced to pay THEM Welfare.

Crockett should know all about those jobs because those are the ones she is qualified to do. All she does now is talk about her DEI degrees and Orange Man Bad.

#11 is correct. We have a small maid service we hired when my wife had cancer. They have now worked for us for 20 years. They scraped up all the money they had to come here legally, learn English and work hard. The younger one has educated herself here, but all are honest and productive citizens. Every one voted for Trump and despise the illegals waltzing over the border and getting free housing, medical care and benefits that they were never given. This is the way thousands have come to this country.... Irish, Italian, and European Jews etc. seeking a better life. My ancestors were Scots-Irish and some of their progeny became millionaires or at least comfortably middle class. All those new immigrants worked menial jobs starting out. Come here legally, work and become a productive citizen, and you will be welcomed. Don't come here illegally seeking free hotels (and trashing them), free medical care, EBT cards etc. and committing crimes. DJT has started long overdue deportations.

She has a high opinion of immigrants. That was the same excuse they had for slavery as they needed people to work the fields and clean their houses.

How does a fool like this, a freakin buffoon get elected to congress. If she is the best that district can do then they all belong in a mental institution. She is nothing more than a foul mouthed thud. Pathetic.

A round of applause for #23 and the legal immigrants of his maid service.
Yes, exactly so. Legal immigration and illegal immigration are polar opposites.

Did this foul-mouthed strumpet ever graduate from grammar school? It's obvious that as a street walker she accumulated a lot of her vocabulary in her speech.

PS -12- is correct. the bracero programme worked well. until, the greedheads became jealous.
in English it is said: money makes the world go round. I
In Spanish, it is la envidia; envy ... makes the world go round.
this is exhibit A for the lack of God, the lack of Good, the lack of belief in sin, redemption,
or even the Golden Rule .
