KTVU: U.S. immigration agents descended on dozens of 7-Eleven stores before dawn Wednesday to open employment audits and interview workers in what officials described as the largest operation against an employer under Donald Trump’s presidency.
Agents targeted about 100 stores nationwide, broadening an investigation that began with a 4-year-old case against a franchisee on New York’s Long Island. The audits could lead to criminal charges or fines over the stores’ hiring practices.
Six 7-Eleven stores in the Bay Area were targeted in Napa, North Sebastopol, Santa Clara, Santa Rosa, Suisun City, Petaluma.
The action appears to open a new front in Trump’s sharp expansion of immigration enforcement, which has already brought a 40 percent increase in deportation arrests and plans to spend billions of dollars on a border wall with Mexico. Hardliners have been pressing for a tougher stance on employers. read more
Well that’s fine and dandy.
But why not raid Cankles??
Oh, darn. No more cockroach slurpees?
They need to hit up these motels run by camel jockeys.

And truckers and cabbies.
This is a good start! Hells yes!!!!
Slurpy please!
Don’t thank heaven for 7-11. I can’t even remember the last time I went to a 7-11. They are and always have been ripoff central.
It may only be a pin prick but it keeps the vermin nervous.

Kids around here call 7-Eleven the “Hindu Hut”
Think that’s bad?
We don’t have 7-11’s down in TX; we have Kum & Go……
When they went 24/7, we started calling them ‘Stop & Rob’.
