“Time to Bud Light Them”: Tyson Foods Firing Blue-Collar Workers and Replacing Them With Illegals………….
To say many Americans are furious with Tyson Foods right now would be an understatement. When word broke that they are closing a plant in Iowa so they can hire migrants in states with more “refugee-friendly” employment laws, the backlash was swift and may continue for a long time.
In short, they’re getting the “Bud Light Treatment” and rightly so. An entire popular beer brand was effectively decimated because they put an image of a transgender man on their cans. Shouldn’t the anger be heightened against a company that is firing 1,200 employees in a town with only 8,000 people?
“As a disabled veteran whose food company only hires American citizens, this news really struck me hard,” said Jason Nelson, co-founder of Prepper All-Naturals. “We are working very hard to not only feed Americans but to also employ them as valued members of our community.”
Prepper All-Naturals specializes in premium long-term storage beef. Their Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and Sirloin products come from Texas cattle on Texas ranches. They do not work with corporate brands like Tyson Foods.
But Tyson is not the only brand owned by the food juggernaut. Some other popular brands, including Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, and Ball Park, are under the Tyson Foods umbrella. For those who want to stop purchasing from a company that harms American citizens so they can virtue-signal regarding migrants while paying lower wages, here’s a handy list. Click it, print it out or save it to your phone, and reference it when shopping for groceries.

This isn’t about politics. It’s about self-preservation. If corporations are going to pan American citizen workers for the sake of virtue signaling, then they need to feel the pressure for their actions.
Calls to boycott are intensifying on X following Tyson Foods’ announcement earlier this week to shutter a pork processing facility in Perry, Iowa. This move will eliminate 1,276 blue-collar jobs. At the same time, the mega food processor has expressed interest in hiring tens of thousands of illegals.
“While this decision was not easy, it emphasizes our focus to optimize the efficiency of our operations to best serve our customers,” a Tyson spokesperson said in a statement to Food Dive.
Perhaps the optimization part of the supply chain is better explained by Garrett Dolan, who leads Tyson’s efforts to eliminate employment barriers such as immigration status, told Bloomberg, “We would like to employ another 42,000 [migrants] if we could find them.”

The Great Replacement in action.
Tyson Foods is firing American workers and replacing them with illegals.
Adding insult to injury, Tyson Foods will also provide lawyers to help with “immigration” hearings.

The idea that Tyson is firing hardworking Americans while attempting to exploit cheap labor from illegals enraged X users. Many of them called for a boycott of all Tyson’s brands.

Tyson Foods is closing its Perry, Iowa pork plant.
This will cost the town 1,200 jobs.
The current population in Perry is 7,928.
Tyson Foods is currently looking to fill 52,000 factory jobs and it’s planning on doing so by hiring illegal aliens in NYC over the next 2 years.
