For almost 19 years Peter Brimelow and Ed Rubenstein published monthly an analysis of the Bureau of Labor Statistics jobs report, focusing on the displacement of American workers by the ‘foreign-born.” We had even invented an American Worker Displacement Index which was almost always rising except during the Trump years.
This project was costly and labor-intensive. As the Letitia James pogrom against VDARE mounted, it had, very sadly to be suspended. The last was NATIONAL DATA: U.S. Worker Displacement Armageddon Intensifies In October — Ruling Class / Regime Media Simply Delusional About It posted on November 7, 2022
However as the Biden “No Borders” increasingly disrupted the US labor market the analytically talented ZeroHedge webzine has become increasingly interested in the matter. Their latest discussion is Inside The Most Ridiculous Jobs Report In History: Record 1.2 Million Immigrant Jobs Added In One Month, by Tyler Durden, ZeroHedge, Saturday, March 9, 2024.
Starting out by noting that only one bank analyst in 76 expected a higher number, ZH goes on to highlight the various subterfuges the BLS is using to get attractive monthly numbers. (A major ploy has been massive downward revisions of the report in following months, ignored of course by the MSM.)
But the final third of the discussion vividly demonstrates the damage has done to American workers by:
…the immigration crisis created intentionally by the Biden administration which is hoping to import millions of new Democratic voters.
ZH reports:
in February, the number of native-born workers tumbled again, sliding by a massive 560K to just 129.807 million. Add to this the December data, and we get a near-record 2.4 million plunge in native-born workers in just the past 3 months.
The offset? A record 1.2 million foreign-born (read immigrants, both legal and illegal but mostly illegal) workers added in February!
which they helpfully chart:
ZeroHedge adds:
…not only has all job creation in the past 6 years has been exclusively for foreign-born workers … but there has been zero job-creation for native born workers since June 2018!

Only 9 years ago this influential webzine seemed oblivious of this crucial issue. Now their grasp is firm and conviction stout. This is a great patriotic development.
