ICE Detains Teacher But Not CEOs Who Shipped Jobs Overseas
When Newsweek highlights ICE detaining a fifth-grade teacher, one might conclude this is the gravest threat to national security. The Biden administration, which oversaw 4.8 million migrant encounters at the U.S. southern border in 2022 and 2023, according to CBP data, is keen on demonstrating its 'tough on borders' stance by targeting vulnerable individuals. Yet, amidst this performative
enforcement, powerful pharmaceutical executives who hiked insulin prices by 1,200% between 2002-2013 (per a JAMA study) face no such predawn raids. Neither do the titans of industry who shuttered American factories, relocating jobs offshore for cheaper labor. It appears the 'rule of law' is applied with peculiar discretion, safeguarding corporate profits while terrorizing educators.
