South Korea chooses to bring ‘exhausted and in-shock’ workers home after plant raid
It has now emerged that Trump asked his officials to “encourage” the detained South Korean workers to extend their stay in the country and train American employees, foreign ministry officials in Seoul said at a briefing.
The president “emphasised that the detained Korean nationals were skilled workers and suggested they either remain in the U.S. to contribute to training the American workforce or be returned to South Korea, depending on Seoul’s stance”, a South Korean official said, according to the Financial Times.
Many of the arrested workers were exhausted and in shock and foreign minister Cho Hyun suggested that they instead return immediately to their home country. They could be allowed to go back to the U.S. for work later if necessary, the officials said.
its interesting that 47 would think that its OK to encorage reshoring of manufacturing via stealing training and IP of foreign firms. They are not stupid.
you can thank that maga lady for tipping off ice.
Lmao
It’s about time Hugo Boss starts designing uniforms again I think
…Isn’t that what most of them were doing anyway? They were setting up equipment and training people up?
but they are fleeing back to South korea, so they are leaving things unfinished.
Yeah because they got attacked by ICE. But if the alleged reason for attacking them was “you need to train Americans”, and that’s exactly what they were doing, then that smells like a BS reason. But it’s ICE, so that tracks.
apparently these are the technical b1 visas, so they are there to setup the machinery, and the technical easpect of the plant.
And that’s probably not a job Americans could easily do.
“Here are the manuals for the machinery”
“It’s all in Korean”
“…lol”
the proprietary tech is probably korean, so they probably cant as easily operate it without thier help anyways
Yes, but brown people bad
That’s not even the right racism!
The chart has spoken.
South Korean workers, so “exhausted and in shock” that they desperately want to go back to South Korean work culture.
LMAO you’ve truly outdone yourselves.
I mean, we’ve seen what ICE does to non-white people with no actual evidence. Christ, I’d want to go back to the evil I know, rather than the evil I don’t. I wouldn’t want to end up in some random prison in some random country for the crime of having the wrong skin color or ethnicity.
Also, let’s not forget that this was all due to a salty, ignorant Trump support running for Georgia office.
So much own goaling here.
The incompetence is off the charts, it’s obvious ICE are just racist goons who act first ask questions never.
“Oh you want me to arrest people different than me? Oh hell yes!”
I really hope all those out of shape gestapo are getting doxxed out the ass
Every single individual who is participating in this needs to face charges
Or street justice
Yes. The American government is now the galactic empire of Trump, and you get resulting policies and foot soldiers to go with it. It’s what ya voted for, enjoy!
They are chasing those bonuses they are promised. The utter distaste I have toward them. I’m just thankful I haven’t encountered any of them.
i wonder if they are going to pay out those bonuses.
If its up to trump he wont. He didn’t pay the contractors who built his failed Atlantic city casino. Ruined whole families when he didn’t and somehow people still trust his word. How do you lose money with a casino?
Amerikkka is being run by seriously fucking stupid Nazis. when will their unbound idiocy come back to bite them? Hopefully soon! It’s going to be eternally embarrassing if this clown regime actually cements anything long into the police state. My money is on the idea that it will all spectacularly come crashing down, and soon!
They could be allowed to go back to the U.S. for work later if necessary, the officials said.
Yeah, that’s totally reasonable. I’d totally come back to get raided by racist goons a second time. What planet do these fucking idiots come from? I’d pull all investments from America if I was a from a not insane foreign nation.
That’s exactly what’s happening

Conservatives are so fucking dumb.
Constantly shooting themselves in the dick and then yelling about how its the “radical left”
Or the neck
Nah his neck just kinda did that.
We apologize for the Americans. They are idiots. We have intentionally trained them wrong, as a joke.
Americans: "If you’ve got an ass, I’LL KICK IT!"
Chicken go cluck cluck! Cow go moo! Piggie go oink oink! How 'bout you?
Abusers do that.
The probelm with people like trump is that hes too stupid to know hes stupid and too evil to care about anyone else.
Trump probably: “We threatened them over and over, brandished weapons and hid our faces! We treated them like animals. Gave them every opportunity to see how we dominate them, even the ones here legally. Why do they not want to work here!”
