In the same article Homan is quoted as saying "There won't be any amnesty"; at least read the article itself before posting it.
They DO talk about policy changes, which could be either bad or good: could be that illegals working there are given a free pass, could be that farmers get given bonuses if the employ actual Americans.

This chatter is designed to prepare you for it. Some version of amnesty is coming and always was. You just won't be allowed to call it amnesty, they'll come up with a different word and the seals will eat it up.

Its probably a rework/speed up and cracking down on abuse of the H-2A Visa:

The employer of an H-2A visa holder must provide the following:
  • Pay an H-2A worker a special H-2A minimum wage rate of pay based on the geographic location.
  • Provide H-2A housing coupled with transportation from the house to the jobsite.
  • Offer a guarantee of hours that work out to be equal to or at least 75% of the work period outlined on the contract.
  • Furnish three meals per day to the H-2A worker or provide cooking/kitchen facilities where the workers can prepare their own meals.
  • Pay in advance, provide, or reimburse a worker for the reasonable costs of their daily travel-related expenses to meet the H-2A transportation requirements.
And they can't do flop houses either:

So in order to use the H-2A employers have to house, feed, and transport the workers with a set minimum wage for their mobile slaves. Make it annoying enough and farmers will really start considering automation.

Oh well let’s read together now, shall we?

“So, we’ll see what comes out of it,” he added. “But people are talking about: is there something that can be done? And I know they’re talking now. And I expect something will come out soon, but we’ll see what goes on.”

“I don’t want to get ahead of the president on what I think is coming, or if something’s even coming, but I know people are talking,” Homan said.

Homan said that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will work to carry out whatever policy the president decides to pursue.

“I’m not going to get ahead of the president, what that decision would be,” he said. “I can tell you this: I worked for six presidents… My job to is to operate within the framework provided me by the administration.”

“So if the president comes up with a policy and says, ‘Okay, here’s what we’re going to do with farm workers,’ then ICE will abide by that policy,” Homan continued.

So basically: Some kind of amnesty is probably coming because the RINO scumbags are hard for it, and when it happens, ICE will leave the poor, hardworking browns alone.

Wow, imagine doing what your boss tells you to do. Unthinkable.

I dunno, maybe it’s the history of destabilizing foreign governments for self-gain that is a classic symbol of both? Certainly Israel has only gained from Assad’s removal, and the US was playing around with Syria claiming chemical warfare shenanigans since Obama.

I wonder how different Central and South America would be had the US and corporations not went around toppling nations for Bananas and Cocoa Beans. Maybe we’d have less illegals trying to get in. I dunno. 🤷‍♂️

yeah bro if only we'd let the Communists take over Guatemala, they'd be a 1st-world country today with their own space program and thriving software industry and shit, just like Venezuela and Bolivia.

It's true! Ghislaine Maxwell and Huma Abedin put their filthy hands on me! Worse yet was Hillary Clinton. Alex Jones was right: she smells like sulphur.

This is such a good use of this clip.

Who cares what the normies think.

The important part is what Trump’s base thinks. And they fucking hate this stuff. On top of the other recent disappointments they had.

And now he’s telling them that he doesn’t need them? It’s like he’s trying to burn down any chances of winning the midterms.

(And yes, Trump absolutely needs every part of his base, despite all the crowing about a landslide victory, it was only two million votes that separated him from Kamala. If you look at the latest polling, Trump is doing terribly. He fell 20 points with his core demographic of blue collar men.)

With the Venezuelans flooding here I was very afraid that the Republicans would grant them instant citizenship like the Cubans because muh gommunism.

A massive problem with the lolbertarian influence on the right is lolberts see government as an external imposition on unwilling people. They have no concept of government arising from the culture, so the fact that people from horrible countries have at least some culpability for how horrible they are escapes them.
