Ho, Ho, ... Wha? If the Mexicans are all being sent back to Mexico, then where is Lake County moneybags (and Trump donor) Richard Uihlein going to get Mexican laborers for his Wisconsin warehouses? Well, according to The Guardian, from Mexico:
A company owned by two of Donald Trump's top mega-donors has routinely brought dozens of its workers from Mexico to staff its warehouses in Wisconsin and other locations even though they do not appear to have permission to work in the US, according to a Guardian investigation. Uline – a giant Wisconsin-based office and shipping supply company controlled by billionaires Liz and Dick Uihlein – shuttles in its own workers from Mexico, who are using tourist visas and visas meant for employees who are entering the US temporarily to receive professional training, known as B1 visas. But instead of being part of a dedicated training program, the Mexican employees stay for one to six months and – sources with direct knowledge of the matter allege – perform normal work in Uline's US warehouses.The Lake County GOP issued a statement demanding the immediate erection of a border wall. Not to be outdone, the Wisconsin GOP issued a statement offering their complete support, provided the wall does not extend anywhere beyond the Wisconsin border.
Major Trump donors who complained of immigrant 'invasion' used Mexican workers illegally, sources allege
Exclusive: Experts believe the alleged 'shuttle support' program used by Uline – a company owned by billionaires Liz and Dick Uihlein – is likely illegal and exploitative of workers
