Freeloading migrant influencer mocks US taxpayers who 'work like slaves' while waving cash in latest videos

You think the new movie Civil War is not possible or a joke; keep allowing the administration to denigrate and diminish this great country. The latest is this Venezuelan influencer touting how he is getting over on the people of this country. Unfortunately, more often than not, the immigrants to this country these days are here only to take advantage of the system and the hard-working people of this country. I’m all for legal immigration, and when you get here, you are processed into the system as a citizen and then obligated to participate and contribute to the continued progress of the U.S. However, somewhere along the way, we have created a class of lazy, entitled, and impoverished people that have one goal: to take advantage of the rest of us. What happened to the days where pride and dignity would stand in the way of you asking for a continual handout? Now we are allowing illegal immigrants to come in and do the same, and they have neither citizenship nor rights to that assistance. If I were one of the legal individuals taking advantage of the system, I would be pissed as I watched people not from here taking advantage of and subtracting from the possible funds that I could have been entitled to. Just keep in mind that there is a finite amount of money the government can spend and a finite amount of tolerance the citizens will allow, and when it breaks, don’t say that you didn’t know it was coming or couldn’t see it. It’s right here in front of your face, and it’s time for people to start doing the right thing. Do you think that these talking heads on television will stand up to support this country when things get bad? HELL no, they will run and take their money with them just as they did during COVID, and their kids certainly won’t be going to support the military or law enforcement. So in the end, we “the citizens that care about the U.S.” will be stuck cleaning up the mess, so I ask, why wait? It’s time for us to take it upon ourselves to do so.

Freeloading migrant influencer mocks US taxpayers who ‘work like slaves’ while waving cash in latest videos

Leonel Moreno, the illegal immigrant “migrant influencer” who has urged his followers to use squatter laws to take over vacant American homes, took to Instagram Wednesday after an apparent TikTok ban to mock American taxpayers.

In a series of five short clips, Moreno flaunted a stack of cash, bragged about not having to work and also mocked fellow migrants who come to the U.S. to work cleaning, construction and landscaping jobs.

“I didn’t cross the Rio Grande to work like a slave,” Moreno said in Spanish, according to a translation of his videos. “I came to the U.S. to mark my territory.”

He claimed to have enough money to go at least a year and a half without working, at times singing and waving cash with a baby in his lap.

He also mocked people who work for a living, including fellow migrants who came to the U.S. to find jobs.

“You’re hurt because I make more than you without much work while you work like slaves, understand?” he said. “That’s the difference between you and me. I’m always going to make lots of money without much work, and you’re always going to be exploited and miserable and insignificant.”

I didn’t cross 12 countries to be a slave to anyone. I came to the USA to become a millionaire.

Moreno’s TikTok account, which had more than 500,000 followers, appeared to have been removed as of Wednesday. In prior videos, he claimed that his family received $350 a week in government handouts since entering the U.S. illegally and has been raking in up to $1,000 a week on the video platform.

In one of the new clips, he shrugged off the loss of his TikTok account, saying he still has Facebook and Instagram and that he expects to continue using them to make money online and from government handouts.

“Yes, they closed my TikTok account, but I keep earning on Facebook and on Instagram,” he said. “I won’t earn the same, but I am going to get my TikTok account back. I am going to keep earning money.”

On Monday, he had posted another video in which he sang about one day making it to the White House.

Not all of his viewers appreciated the videos, with one commenter calling him a “clown.”

Others questioned the whereabouts of his wife, wondering in the comments section whether she was out working while he was posting videos and watching the baby. Many condemned his comments as inflammatory.

Moreno allegedly received border parole but is now listed as an “absconder” from immigration authorities, the New York Post reported Wednesday, citing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) documents.

ICE did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Moreno reportedly received border parole in April 2022 as part of the government’s Alternatives to Detention program, which is supposed to track catch-and-release migrants when there is not enough room to detain them.

Moreno previously told his audience he planned to make a business out of “invading” abandoned houses and taking them over with squatters’ rights laws, then selling them for a profit.
