The essay's intellectual punch lands here. Having established the economic damage of deportation, Galloway reframes the entire premise: the threat to American workers isn't the undocumented immigrant picking produce, it's the AI model processing invoices. The World Economic Forum projects 9 million global job displacements in five years; Anthropic's CEO warns that half of all entry-level white-collar jobs could be eliminated. [1] — George Hahn "While Trump deploys billions to deport undocumented workers, the actual threat to American jobs is AI. The World Economic Forum projects 9 …" 08:17 Galloway reaches for a vivid analogy: imagine the entire population of Greece storming America's shores, willing to work 24/7 for free. You've already met them, he writes. Their names are GPT, Claude, and Gemini. The policy prescription follows logically: train, don't terrorize.
While Trump deploys billions to deport undocumented workers, the actual threat to American jobs is AI. The World Economic Forum projects 9 million displaced jobs globally in five years, and Anthropic's CEO warns AI could eliminate half of all entry-level white-collar work. The job thieves have already arrived — and they work for free, 24/7.
The World Economic Forum says 9 million jobs globally may be displaced by AI in the next 5 years — the real threat Trump is ignoring.
Anthropic's CEO warned that AI could eliminate half of all entry-level white-collar jobs, a far greater labor threat than undocumented immigrants.
Disney, Meta, and Paramount have collectively paid Trump roughly $60 million to settle what Galloway calls nuisance lawsuits — all routed to his presidential library. Newsrooms are folding. The White House is handpicking press pool participants. This is what the end of a free press looks like.
