It looks to me like the Koch Brothers may have asked Trump for a little help in putting some of their unruly employees in their place. hmm

Re: Were the Mississippi ICE raids a favor to the Koch Brothers?
This is the basis of the theory (from the article linked in the original post):

AMY GOODMAN: I want to ask L. Patricia Ice about Koch Foods, who owned all these processing plants, and what is going on here. You have this $3.75 million EEOC settlement, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission settlement, that alleged that in these factories, that the workers were being sexually harassed, racially harassed, harassed based on their national origin. Clearly, in order to get a settlement like this, these workers had to organize. How is this ICE raid being seen? Is it that ICE is retaliating for the company against workers organizing? Of course, this puts the company in the spotlight, as well, for all of their abuse.

L. PATRICIA ICE: I don’t know if ICE is retaliating because of this $3.5 million settlement or not, but what I see — but it appears that it would be a retaliation. I have been into some of those chicken processing plants. I’ve been in the one in Morton, and I’ve been in one in Forest. And I have worked with the Latino community in Scott County for a very long time. I would venture to say at least 20 years. And I know that there was sexual harassment in the plants. I was not involved with that litigation, but I knew about it when it first came to light publicly that that was going on. So, it is possible that this was a retaliation by the Department of Homeland Security against the immigrant population who was working in those plants. But the conditions are terrible in the plants. It’s cold in there. People have to wear jackets. They usually wear white jackets. In these plants, they have to kill the chickens. There’s blood on the floor. There’s water on the floor. And the people performing the different jobs are exposed — excuse me — are exposed to machinery. They have to cut the chickens. They package the chickens, etc. And it’s not a very good environment.

These raids were all at Koch Foods plants, and they just happened to help the agenda of the Koch brothers.

Nothing to see here for sure.

It's not like the Koch brothers have a full-time liaison (Kellyanne Conway) in the White House 24/7 or anything.

If all you're getting is psychological projection, that's a good sign for me.

Kellyanne Conway is an agent of the Koch brothers.

Anyone want to dispute that?

The Koch brothers own Koch Industries which is not affiliated with Koch Foods.

I'm sorry about that.
