(23,740 posts)1st round, countries around didn't like shithole and comrades, 2nd round they hate us even more.
As to any pics, I have not seen any. There is a disgusting Noem commercial where they show arresting brown people like they are criminals, and so far the GQP's PR crapola have been failing. I assume they might do commercials where they scared and arrest allegedly legal visa work requirements in the US - South Koreans treated like criminals wherein the cult base will fully enjoy.

(12,786 posts)Many of the so called illegal immigrants were actually people on a business trip to tour the factory. They weren't working in the US, they were touring the factory. Korea has sent a plane to get their people out of the US. It's not safe for any tourists or foreign visitors, not to mention legal immigrants.
"LG Energy Solution, which operates the plant with Hyundai, says many of the LG employees arrested were on business trips with various visas or under a visa waiver programme.
The company has said it is suspending most business trips to the US and directing employees on assignment in the US to return home immediately.
South Korean media widely described the raid as a "shock," with the Dong-A Ilbo newspaper warning it could have "a chilling effect on the activities of our businesses in the United States"." https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj07jzgve45o.amp
I read this about videos and images of the arrest process:
"Visuals shared online showed masked and armed agents ordering the construction workers to line up as officers raided the facility. Many were seen being chained by their hands, stomachs, and legs before being led into vehicles.
Some ran into a sewage pond located on the premises. Agents used a boat to fish them out of the water. One of the individuals swam under the boat and tried to flip it over to no avail. These people were captured and identified as illegal workers, CNN quoted the US Attorneys Office as saying.""
There are videos and images at this link:
