WASHINGTON, DC - The jobs report for August released by the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics has shown that the employment numbers of American-born citizens versus foreign-born workers have significantly diverged into a devastating disadvantage for U.S.-born workers and a huge advantage for the foreign-born.

According to reporting from Fox Business, American workers born here in the U.S. lost over 1.3 million jobs over the last 12 months, while workers born on foreign soil enjoyed a gain of over 1.2 million jobs. This report comes alongside news that overall job growth only saw a slight lift in August and failed again to meet economist projections for the second consecutive month. 
The outlet reported that in August there were 129,712,000 workers in the U.S. born in this country as opposed to 131,031,000 a year before, in a profound loss of over 1.3 million jobs. Conversely, there were 30,396,000 foreign-born workers in August 2023 which saw an increase of 1,240,000 jobs to 31,636,000 in August 2024.

In a thorough analysis, ZeroHedge examined the phenomenon over a longer period, writing, "it's not just the past month, or two, or three... As regular readers know, the reason why suddenly we are bombarded with media pitches for why illegal immigrants are actually great for you, is that the US has not created a single job for native-born workers since July 2018! And in that interval, it has created 4.7 million jobs for immigrants, both legal and illegal."

The report from ZeroHedge observed, "Standard Chartered strategist Steven Englander wrote at the start of June to refute that claims and prove that most of these immigrant workers are virtually all illegal: 'Detailed data from US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) suggest that half of non-farm payroll (NFP) growth to date for FY24 (started 1 October 2023) has been from undocumented immigrants who have received an Employment Authorization Document (EAD)'"

Englander added, "The ability to track EAD issuance to undocumented workers is an advantage in estimating how much they have contributed to employment growth. NFP counts workers with an EAD just like any other. Using that data, it is easy to estimate that undocumented workers have added 109k jobs per month to NFP out of the average 231 increase so far in FY24."

Biden and Kama have almost destroyed our Republic. They are traitors and should be in Federal prison. They will try to get millions of votes from the illegal aliens in this country that they have let in. Is there people in this country that don’t believe this? I have heard many people say this, so I thought I would write it down. I know our country is in a sad condition. Pray.
