Fun Fact: If there is a mass deportation, the jobs that open up are jobs Americans don’t want to do. They’re labor intensive, pay less than minimum wage and are dirty.

As the productivity drops in many areas, prices will rise…..especially in the food industry.

All, 

I can’t tell you that it’s more important than ever right now to support the Observer and other local journalism. I mean, I’d thought Kamala Harris would win a narrow victory and that Trump wouldn’t do a whole lot better in Texas than he did in 2020. In other words, for the moment, I’m out of both the prediction game and the game of even just making confident statements. 

All I can say is that Trump’s explicit plan is to hurt specific people — undocumented immigrants spring first to mind, but they are one of many groups — and many of these people live in Texas. And that the Observer intends to be here, on the ground, exposing these harms as they play out. We did it last time, we plan to do it again, 

I suppose I can also say that investigative journalism, the bulk of what we do, isn’t terribly contingent on politics. Whoever’s in charge, they want to hide things; we dig, and we publish.
