Believe them. They carry out their agenda when they get the power to do it:
Trump talks a lot about the 1890s as America’s golden era. That’s when he thinks America was great. Child labor was a big part of that:
Court documents unsealed in the Western District of Arkansas reveal accusations of child labor at Tyson processing plants, which have since prompted searches by the U.S. Department of Labor.
Applications for inspection warrants were filed in September 2024 for Tyson Foods Rogers and Tyson Foods Green Forest.
The applications, which included narratives from an investigator at the Houston District Office for the Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor, claim that there is reason to believe minors are employed in violation of labor laws at the Tyson locations in Rogers and Green Forest.
The warrants were seeking records relating to the employment of minors, and the searches were meant to gather records relating to employees for Tyson Foods or affiliates and contractors of Tyson Foods, according to the applications.
Court documents said reviews of the processing plants began in June 2024 after anonymous complaints were received by the Wage and Hour Division.
For the Rogers application, the Wage and Hour Division cited an anonymous tip from a teacher at a nearby school, who reported that one of her 14-year-old students discussed working at the Tyson facility with his mother for the summer.
For the Green Forest application, the complainant said she was a mother of middle schoolers and overheard children between 11 and 13 years old discussing their employment at the Green Forest plant on the night shift, which runs from 11 p.m. to 7 or 8 a.m. The children were allegedly heard talking about not knowing how to get money from their paycheck out of the ATM, the documents said.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders is as MAGA as it comes. And she thinks child labor is a-ok, even signed a bill that loosened the laws against it. I think we can be fairly sure that a Trump labor department will agree with her.
