just fucking amazing...really...
~On the 5th, the local Korean news channel 'Atlanta Korean News Portal' reported that "the raid on the federal immigration office appeared to have been triggered by persistent tips from far-right Trump supporters," and that Tory Brainam, a candidate for the 12th Georgia Congressional District, had identified herself as the informant. Brainam, a former US Marine who has declared her support for Trump, is known for her far-right conservative leanings.

Using the gestapo to take out the gestapo is, as always, a legitimate tactic.

Grok comment — based on my prompt
- Cultural psychology research, such as a 2018 study in Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, indicates East Asian societies are "shame-driven" rather than "guilt-driven" like Western ones, explaining why the public chaining of workers—captured and released by ICE—resonates as a national humiliation beyond mere legal disputes.
- The visa bottleneck for Koreans, despite their role in constructing the Hyundai-LG plant, contrasts with visa privileges for countries like Australia, suggesting potential U.S. policy inconsistencies that could strain the ROK-U.S. alliance, especially given the $150 billion investment pledged post-Trump-Lee summit.

"after this happened, many companies will think again about investing in the United States because setting up a new project might take so much longer than before," he said, adding that many of those who were detained were specialists and finding local workers to replace them would not be easy.
time and administrative hurdles involved in obtaining US visas had encouraged foreign companies to cut corners in order to finish projects on time, but they might now need to reassess.

As mentioned, kids bringing guns to school and gifting bullets to classmates started the trend as way to change the topic away from gun laws.
Over time, it transitioned to a cash cow as schools got security funding and retired police officers can now score a second pension as school security.
It remains in place today because ot provides a way for school administrators to prevent crazy parents from wandering the schools looking to find out why there kid is being forced tomdo homework that involves critical thinking instead of focusing on important things like football.

Remember.
Race and ethnicity cannot be used as a factor in education or highlighted in musuems, libraries or random pieces of paper found on the street but it can be used as a factor rubbing an anus on the forth amendment.

AFAIK, they all held visas. But many were some kind of business visas that prohibited them from working for money while in the country (WTF ??) because the administration wouldn't give the proper visas to set up their multibillion dollar factory...
Without the properly trained workers it's pretty damn hard to build a state of the art battery factory.
Look at Northvolt, billions spent and even with teams of Chinese experts they couldn't get their battery factory running correctly.

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said a US immigration raid that led to the detention of more than 300 Korean workers has unsettled companies pouring billions into America.
“They simply needed skilled technicians to install the equipment to build the plant because there aren’t workers available in the US,” Lee said on Thursday, speaking at a press conference in Seoul to mark his 100th day in office. “This could have a significant impact on future direct investment into the US.”
"Lee said the workers were dispatched on short-term stays to install equipment and got caught up in the raid amid repeated difficulties obtaining visas. He added that the raid had left him “baffled.”
