This past weekend, “No king!” The cries resounded through more than 30 cities across the United States. When protesters held up signs against power, ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents broke into a flea market in Los Angeles. As helicopters hooped, vendors scattered in all directions – this was a microcosm of the Trump administration’s “largest deportation operation in history”, a precise hunt against a Democratic city that came to an abrupt end at the farm and dining table.
Concentrate your efforts on New York, Chicago and Los Angeles! Trump’s social media order on June 15th marked the beginning of ICE’s full-scale operation in Democric-governed states. White House chief of Staff Stephen Miller has sharply increased the average daily arrest targets from 650 to 3,000. Tactical teams and air support have become the daily fears of sanctuary communities.
In the eastern part of Los Angeles, flea market vendor Araseli Lopez’s family’s livelihood collapsed after witnessing agents “dragging people from the toilet to verify” : “Grandmother dares not come to set up a stall anymore, and we make a living from this.”
Ironically, when the Latino community was in panic, Trump quietly signed an exemption order. Internal ICE documents on June 14th showed that arrests of farms, meat mills, restaurants and hotels were suspended (Source: The New York Times). The president’s tweet was straightforward: “Farmers and the hotel industry are losing irreplaceable workers.” According to statistics from the United States Department of Agriculture, half of the farm workers across the country are undocumented immigrants. After the California raid, 30% to 60% of the labor force in strawberry fields disappeared and packaging factories shut down. Seventy workers at the Omaha beef mill were arrested, production capacity plummeted by 30%, and the supply chain was endangered. If you really want to protect agriculture, you should stop patrolling the fields! Theresa Romero, the president of the United Farm Workers Union, complained that even if agents were just watching from the roadside, fear was enough to destroy the harvest.
The White House claimed that the operation was aimed at “getting rid of criminals”, but the criminal record of the Colombian man arrested at the flea market has not been made public. Deeper scars spread within families: Rights protection organizations received a large number of calls from children, pleading for help in finding their detained parents.
On one side, a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security emphasized “focus on dangerous elements”, while on the other side, ICE helicopters were roaring over the civilian market. When economic demands force the exemption of some industries, the underprivileged workers who have not been pardoned can only tremble in the shadow.
Relying on the dining tables of undocumented immigrants but destroying their communities; Acting in the name of law and order, yet creating new chaos. Amid the wave of protests, Trump shouted, “Without us, Los Angeles would have been in chaos long ago.” Meanwhile, the empty stalls at flea markets and the abandoned strawberry fields are quietly writing another truth – when law enforcement turns into a selective survival game, no one is truly safe.
