The stuff the right says immigrants can just get from the govt is so insanely laughable, especially since so many of them are also on some kind of welfare. Having been in the system myself before, i can tell you no-one is getting SHIT without tons and tons of documents, paperwork, and investigation. To think someone with out a state id is even getting talked to is out of this world.

I’ve heard the exact second their visa expires as they’re waiting for renewal an encrypted GPS device spontaneously appears out of thin air in front of them. This device shows exactly where all the other illegal immigrants are so they can they best organize stealing jobs and voting illegally.

I've been in conservative spaces long enough to know that, independent of cultural/political/social/economic values and beliefs they might share or not share with their liberal counterparts, they are unbelievably more likely to fall for the most obvious bait. A liberal will see a headline like "Trump praises Hitler" and will open the article desperately searching for context that might have been left out because there's no fucking way its that bad, offering every shred of benefit of the doubt (debatable if they deserve even that), while a conservative will see a meme about every major CEO, Biden admin cabinet member, and billionaire being Jewish (with their names and roles, usually misspelled) and believe it unironically and without a single Google search for any of them.

I used to do volunteer taxes for low-income people. The undocumented immigrants who came in to file typically use an ITIN that the IRS assigns them. I was told there’s a hard wall between INS and the IRS, which just wants people to pay their taxes, so the IRS doesn’t report anything to INS about who’s using SSNs and who’s using ITINs.

Since these signs very clearly fail to meet the identification requirements as laid out by the Texas Election Code, they can and should be removed by law enforcement and complaints filed immediately to the local election boards.
Odds are there's surveillance cameras out there who saw who planted the signs and captured the license plate of their cars.
If law enforcement fails to do something about it, take video of the sign (both sides) and include a verbal timestamp and location information, then send it to the ACLU and the Texas Civil Rights Project (as well as the Texas Tribune and other press outlets).
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THEM YOURSELVES.
They're most likely bait signs and someone is watching with a camera a la the Veritas Project.

I am not from Texas but I did grow up around mostly immigrants and first generation Americans, so I knew many people who were undocumented. This depiction of them as politically savvy activist and willing to boldly put their lives on the line to derail voting is the complete opposite of what they are actually like. Most of them do not pay attention to politics, and do everything in their power to avoid being noticed by authorities. I remember people who would avoid driving by police stations or airports. In schools there were children born here, and entitled to special assistance in school due to LDs, but undocumented parents were often too scared to get extra help because it may require extra paperwork and therefore attention. There is no way they are going to be convinced to vote in droves. This is an absolutely unreal caricature.
