Immigration-Obsessed Tucker Carlson Ignored Undocumented Immigrants On Trump Payroll

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on December 07, 2018 · Flag

After yesterday’s New York Times report on undocumented immigrants working at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., you’d think that someone as virulently anti-immigrant as Tucker Carlson would surely have been all over this story last night, right?

Tucker Carlson doesn't just hate immigrants, especially “illegal” immigrants, he goes out of his way to demonize them nearly every night. His Tucker Carlson Tonight show has painted immigrants as responsible for a drop in U.S. life expectancy; as a threat to the very identity of the U.S.; and as a recipe for civil war. The Times story should be especially troubling to Carlson given how Trump has made immigration such a priority.

Here’s some of what the Times reported about Victorina Morales and Sandra Diaz, each of whom worked “for years” as “part of a group of housekeeping, maintenance and landscaping employees at the golf club that included a number of undocumented workers, though they could not say precisely how many.”

Because of the “outstanding” support she has provided during Mr. Trump’s visits, Ms. Morales in July was given a certificate from the White House Communications Agency inscribed with her name.

[…]

“There are many people without papers,” said Ms. Diaz, who said she witnessed several people being hired whom she knew to be undocumented.

[…]

During the presidential campaign, when the Trump International Hotel opened for business in Washington, Mr. Trump boasted that he had used an electronic verification system, E-Verify, to ensure that only those legally entitled to work were hired.

[…]

But throughout his campaign and his administration, Ms. Morales, 45, has been reporting for work at Mr. Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, where she is still on the payroll. An employee of the golf course drives her and a group of others to work every day, she says, because it is known that they cannot legally obtain driver’s licenses.

But even though Carlson did yet another segment on the "immigration crisis," he ignored the supposedly mortal threats at a Trump golf club, a place where those Carlson-demonized elites hang out!

Here’s what Carlson covered instead.

Worth noting that this particular POS has been giving interviews over the last few days criticising and distancing himself from Trump. Away from Fox, so far, but he’s definitely deserting ship.

To see if this topic is being discussed elsewhere on Fox News I visited their website. It’s not that I could see skimming the front page.

However, what struck me with Fox’s web site isn’t just how nakedly partisan it is. It is so low brow and tabloid now.

So basically your criticism of Tucker – while perfectly valid – is just the same old, same old of Fox’s evening programming taking their talking points from Fox’s daytime shows and regurgitating them in a more hysterical format.
