Hello All.
The truth comes out, heh. What a jerk. Then again, he's from New Jersey which
is a giant hole from what I've seen. My friend who was born and raised in New
Jersey but has long since moved once told me that New Jersey is "the world's biggest toxic waste dump in more ways than one."

Democrat Lawmaker Suggests We Need Immigrants To Mow `Our Beautiful Lawns'

Democratic New Jersey Rep. Tom Malinowski suggested to a crowd that
immigrants, whether legal or illegal, are needed to mow "our beautiful
lawns" and work other undesirable jobs that U.S. citizens don't want to
do.
The congressman was speaking Tuesday at an event held at Cafe Brio in
Hillsborough, a wealthy suburban area in the state.
"There are a lot of jobs in our community that, like it or not, for better
or worse, Americans are not willing to take," Malinowski said in video
obtained by the Washington Examiner. "I mean, who do you think is taking
care of our seniors?"
"Who do you think is mowing our beautiful lawns in Somerset County? We
don't usually ask, but a lot of those workers are undocumented. There are
just not a lot of, you know, kids - sorry - from Montgomery High who are
going to be doing that full-time," the first-term Democrat said, which
prompted laughter from the young audience.
Malinowski then told the people in attendance they would be going into
robotics after graduating, suggesting that menial jobs would need to be
occupied by immigrants.
"You're a bunch of elitists! You're not going to mow lawns."
New Jersey GOP Chairman Doug Steinhardt condemned Malinowski's comments.
"Plenty of legal New Jersey residents landscape for a living or cut their
own grass. They would all be mortified by your limousine liberal, elitist
comments. You drawing a parallel between one's intellectual capacity and
their willingness to do manual labor just shows how out of touch you are
with your constituents," Steinhardt said in a Friday press
release. "Apologize for your offensive comments if you want, but we all
see you now Congressman."
This isn't the first time Malinowski, who worked in the Obama
administration before entering Congress, has been caught on camera making
controversial comments.
In the run-up to the 2018 midterm elections, he suggested the Republican
Party was carrying a "white nationalist" identity.
"My party is having a debate right now about the best way to provide
health care to Americans," he said during a September 2018 debate with
then-GOP Rep. Leonard Lance. "The Republican Party right now - not in New
Jersey so much, but in Washington, D.C. - is having a very different kind
of debate. It's having a debate about whether to be a white nationalist
party or not."
Malinowski occupies New Jersey's 7th Congressional District. For decades,
the district had been occupied by Republican lawmakers, but was among the
many GOP seats lots during the 2018 midterm sweep by Democrats. It is
considered a top target by the Republican National Congressional
Committee.
Malinowski's office did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News
Foundation's request for comment.
