Joe Biden - "Time to put Trump in the bullseye."
Come on trump. Lock up anorexia cortez. The skinny wench admits she broke the law.
march 7 2025 An illegal immigrant who once served as an aide to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has reportedly self-deported to Colombia, praising the "freedom of movement" in the South American nation after working in Congress despite being in the country illegally. Diego de la Vega was born in Ecuador and immigrated to the United States as a 7-year-old in 2001 on a visitor’s visa that he overstayed, Migrant Insider reported.

In 2021, de la Vega was hired by Ocasio-Cortez’s re-election campaign and eventually became her deputy communications director. De la Vega worked for Ocasio-Cortez despite not being a U.S. citizen. DACA recipients are barred from paid positions in congressional offices.

There is evidence that the Trump Organization, which Donald Trump owned and oversaw, employed undocumented immigrants—commonly referred to as "illegal aliens"—at various properties over the years, though Trump himself has consistently denied direct knowledge or involvement.
Reports from multiple sources, including The New York Times and The Washington Post, indicate that undocumented workers were hired at Trump properties such as the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, and other resorts. For example, Victorina Morales, an undocumented immigrant from Guatemala, worked as a housekeeper at Bedminster from 2013, and Sandra Diaz, who was undocumented during her tenure from 2010 to 2013, also worked there. Both claimed that supervisors knew of their status and, in some cases, helped them maintain employment despite it. Additionally, a 2019 Washington Post investigation found that a roving crew of Latin American workers, including undocumented immigrants, performed maintenance and construction work at Trump properties for nearly two decades, with some still employed as late as 2019.
Historically, a 1980s case involving the demolition of a building to make way for Trump Tower in New York City also points to the use of undocumented labor. Court documents and testimony from the time reveal that around 200 undocumented Polish workers, paid as little as $4 an hour off the books, were employed by a subcontractor Trump hired. While Trump claimed he was unaware of their status, a federal judge later ruled he "should have known," and Trump settled a related lawsuit in 1998 for $1.38 million.
Trump has maintained distance from these hiring practices, stating in 2019, “I don’t know because I don’t run it,” referring to the Trump Organization, which at that point was managed day-to-day by his sons. The Trump Organization has said it uses strict hiring practices and, after public scrutiny, implemented the E-Verify system to screen workers, firing dozens of undocumented employees in 2019. However, critics argue this response came only after exposure, not as a proactive policy.
On the flip side, Trump’s defenders might argue that such hiring was common in industries like hospitality and construction, and that responsibility lies with subcontractors or lower-level management, not Trump personally. There’s no definitive proof he directly hired undocumented workers himself, as opposed to the broader operations of his company.
So, did "Trump" hire illegal aliens? If you mean the Trump Organization under his ownership, yes, it did, based on documented cases. If you mean Trump personally shaking hands and signing their checks, there’s no direct evidence of that—just a pattern of employment within his business empire that he either overlooked or tacitly allowed until it became a liability.

Under the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, employers are prohibited from hiring individuals who lack authorization to work in the country. Specifically:
  • Federal Law: Title 8 U.S. Code § 1324a makes it unlawful for any person or entity to hire, recruit, or refer for a fee an alien knowing they are not authorized to work in the U.S. This applies to both formal employment and certain contract work.
  • Penalties: Employers who violate this can face civil fines ranging from hundreds to thousands of dollars per unauthorized worker, and in cases of a "pattern or practice" of violations, criminal penalties like jail time (up to 6 months) or higher fines can apply.
  • Verification: Employers are required to use Form I-9 to verify an employee’s work eligibility. If they knowingly bypass this or accept fake documents, they’re breaking the law.
There’s a gray area, though: if an employer doesn’t know an employee is undocumented (e.g., due to convincing fake documents) and follows I-9 procedures, they might avoid liability. But ignorance isn’t a foolproof defense—courts can scrutinize whether the employer "should have known."

Diego de la Vega was employed by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) while he was an undocumented immigrant (often referred to as an "illegal alien" in legal contexts). Here’s what the publicly available evidence shows as of March 08, 2025:
  • Employment: Diego de la Vega worked as the Deputy Communications Director for AOC’s reelection campaign, starting in October 2022, according to his LinkedIn profile. There’s no clear evidence he was employed directly by her congressional office, which has stricter rules, but he was part of her campaign team.
  • Immigration Status: De la Vega arrived in the U.S. from Ecuador at age seven on a visitor’s visa, which he overstayed, making him undocumented. He later received Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status, which provides temporary protection from deportation but does not grant legal work authorization for congressional staff positions under House rules. He lived in the U.S. for 23 years without full legal status.
  • Self-Deportation: In December 2024, shortly after Donald Trump’s election win and amid heightened immigration enforcement, de la Vega left the U.S. for Bogotá, Colombia, with his wife, another undocumented immigrant. This move was reportedly motivated by his precarious status and House rules barring DACA recipients from serving as congressional aides, though he worked for the campaign, not directly as a House staffer.
  • Legality of Employment: Federal law (8 U.S.C. § 1324a) prohibits employers from knowingly hiring undocumented immigrants, but DACA recipients can legally work in many sectors with an Employment Authorization Document (EAD). However, House rules specifically exclude DACA recipients from congressional staff roles, which may not apply to campaign work funded privately. It’s unclear if AOC’s campaign knowingly violated any laws, as campaign employment records aren’t fully public, and no official investigation has been confirmed by the Department of Justice or other authorities as of now.
  • Context: AOC praised de la Vega, calling him “amazing” after his departure, suggesting she was aware of his role.

National secrets are often discussed in the Capital buildings.


Remove AOC from all Congressional Committees and Post a Capital Police guard on her office door. Escort both AOC and the Aide, even if going separate places, any time they are outside the office.


Give AOC one month to replace the Aide, and if she does not, impeach and remove AOC from her Congressional Office.


Then send ICE to arrest and deport the Aide. In the process, thoroughly debrief the AID with the appropriate questions and instructions as we would for any known foreign spy.


If the AID does know any sensitive or secret data, give her a 10 year prison sentence, and keep her in isolation for the duration.

Drinking again?
 
When this aide was just a campaign staffer, and spent her time at a campaign office, it was a poor choice and judgement by AOC.


Bringing her into the Capital Building as Congressional Staff, is a serious crime and breach of security.


AOC should have any security clearance she holds revoked.

I've heard that many times. Would not surprise me if it's true. That may be why trump doesn't go after people wo hire illegals even though that would be very effective in making them leave.

Trump voters who complained about AOC hiring an illegal whose name happens to be that of a fictional character should be fair to complain about Trump company hiring them.

You want me to prove that Zorro is not working for AOC? Do you want me to prove that Superman is also not working for AOC?

Zorro would be a US citizen, because he lived in California, which became part of the USA. Superman is more problematic. He is technically an illegal alien who hides his real identity.
 
It is one thing to hire an illegal to do construction work, or be a political Campaign Staffer.


It is a very different thing to bring an illegal into the offices of the Capitol Building.


Are we going to allow illegals to be janitors at nuclear missile silos?
