My brother told me about a strip club that ICE raided

that he frequents to and does business with. My younger brother has done business with this strip club for the last few years. This strip club gives him a ton of free passes and in return he gives his business clients these free passes. He told me the other night he went to the strip club that one of the bouncers he knows at the club told him how over 15 ICE agents raided this club and went after these 2 Hispanic strippers that they claimed were illegals. The bouncer also said one of the customers in the club was having a private dance with one of these Hispanic strippers and that ICE busted in the private room to grab the stripper. I bring this up just to show how stupid these ICE raids are.

My brother also voted for Harris and is against Trump. We both laughed at the absurdity and the stupidity of the raid. My brother joked sarcastically and said, "Well you know those Hispanic strippers took away stripper jobs from hard working White American women that deserved those jobs." and we both busted out laughing. These raids are mostly stupid and a waste of taxpayer money.

for the conservative media machine to feed to their adoring cult. This is all theater because in reality they have no intention of depriving the business owners of their pool of cheap, reliable labor.

I'd be worried about them having been trafficked already.
