Dem CNN panelist issues bizarre warning about foodstuff that will disappear if Trump migrant raids continue
A Democratic strategist has warned American women they soon won’t have blueberries ‘for their smoothies’ in a bizarre rant about President Donald Trump’s ongoing deportation scheme targeting illegal immigrants.
Jenna Arnold told CNN that the migrant raids will soon begin impacting the food chain, because so many roles in the industry have been occupied by immigrants.
‘I can’t wait until American women can’t get blueberries for their smoothies,’ the activist and Democrat political strategist said.
Arnold added that roles like ‘picking strawberries’ are usually filled by migrants.
‘I cannot wait until there is a full crackdown on all small businesses, as if that’s going to be the solution to the immigration problem,’ she said.
‘It is just going to put immigration-related issues further into the darker corners. We’re not going to see them. It’s just going to become even harder to solve the problem.
‘It doesn’t make sense to punish individuals and people when there is a broken system.’
An estimated 40 per cent of the American agricultural workforce are undocumented, according to Atmos Earth.

Trump has dispatched thousands of ICE officers to the border to carry out the ‘biggest illegal immigrant grab’ in recent history
Trump campaigned on a promise to carry out mass deportations and strengthen the US border, and his first act on inauguration day was to declare a national emergency.
Since then, Trump has dispatched thousands of ICE officers to the border to carry out the ‘biggest illegal immigrant grab’ in recent history.
Agents are preparing to take ‘100,000 immigrants’ back to Mexico and Central America, a White House intelligence source told DailyMail.com.
Around 1,500 active duty troops were deployed to the nearly 2,000-mile border this week, including 500 Marines from Camp Pendleton in California. They have been joined with what has been described as a ‘mile long line of DHS trucks and CBP’.
Immigration arrests have reached about 1,000-1,200 per day in recent days, according to ICE, far above the daily average of 311 in fiscal year 2024.
The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement Wednesday that 7,300 illegal aliens had been deported.
‘In the first week of the Trump Administration, we have fulfilled President Trump’s promise to the American people to arrest and deport violent criminals illegally in the country,’ the department said.
‘In one week, law enforcement officials have removed and returned 7,300 illegal aliens.’

ICE officers are particularly targeting properties across the country in sanctuary cities like New York.
Sanctuary cities have become a haven for migrants who flock to them in the knowledge that officials there limit cooperation with federal immigration agents.
The president has since said he ‘might have to consider’ pulling funding to sanctuary cities, which include the likes of Chicago, Los Angeles and Philadelphia.
Scared undocumented migrants have reportedly been hunkering down since Trump took office for the second time last week, failing to turn up for work or church as usual out of fear they’ll be targeted.
