And if he's publicly advocating for ending illegal immigration, he shouldn't be hiring them to save money for his business.
It makes a difference because of the hypocrisy of it. The Republican party is pretending to scream and wail about illegals coming across the border, and then speedy quick they hire them at well below market wages.
And that's the reason EVerify won't ever be mandated - because Republicans want to pretend they don't know their employees are illegals, as in this case where they assuredly knew but wanted to maintain deniability.
We'll see how that goes for them in court. If THEY'D STOP HIRING illegals, the illegals would stop coming over and those who were here would go home.
And that's why the party of the employer here matters.
Hypocrisy of the right? You think the left doesn’t hire illegals. And one story about a Republican doesn’t equal all Republicans. You have zero argument there...

That poster is the one who is a hypocrite! It's the Democrats that won't pass an e-verify bill even though the Republicans have presented them.

Show where it says that particular employer "enticed" him to come here to work. What did he do? Call him, talk to him on social media, go to Mexico and talk to him?

This employer was a prominent republican looking to exploit illegal immigrants by paying slave wages. Those who hire illegals are causing our illegal immigration problem!
Only those on the right hire illegals, to do farm work, mow their yards, clean their toilets, etc.?
Free money, free everything and having their babies born here as anchor babies is probably the biggest attraction. But it's likely the free stuff is the main attraction.
One of the jurors claimed she felt sympathy for the guy because "he's accused of a horrible crime". Yikes. Leftist sjw's should not be allowed on juries.

I may be enticed to break the law but if I decide to do so it's still on me. I'm still responsible for my own actions. These pro-illegal fools never want to blame the illegals themselves but the fact is they are just as guilty as the employers who hire them! No one forces them over our border to work here or to use a fake or stolen SS number to gain employment or to work for cash evading taxes. They and their greedy employers should both be held accountable. There is no innocent party here.
