Tuesday night's episode of Fox's "The Cleaning Lady," a drama about illegal aliens living in the U.S., made light of criminal aliens stealing American citizens' identities.
In the episode "Mercy," illegal immigrant Fiona (Martha Millan) struggles to make ends meet with her under-the-table cleaning business. Her employee Krista (Diana Gaitirira), who is also in the U.S. illegally, mentions a new scheme to make money.
Fiona meets with a man who provides her with a "borrowed" driver's license. She seems more concerned about possibly getting caught than the harm her use of a stolen identity may cause a U.S. citizen.

That evening Fiona shares the "good news" about stealing someone else's name with her housemate and fellow illegal Thony (Elodie Yung). Thony is working for a cartel and "mercifully" killed a tortured cartel victim earlier in the episode.
Fiona attempts to pick up Stripride customers the next day, but they reject getting into her beat-up old van. Her son fixes up her van at the end of the episode so that she can try again.
The lighthearted tone with which "Mercy" approaches a serious crime that causes American citizens untold financial and emotional burdens every year is infuriating. The pain experienced by identity theft victims is irrelevant to the narrative, as though their lives do not matter. The only concern any of the characters expresses is fear of getting caught. The audience is somehow supposed to sympathize with people who have zero guilt over the cost of their actions to American citizens.
As the 2024 election showed, Americans are sick of being taken advantage of by illegal immigration. Shows like "The Cleaning Lady" can no longer manipulate American audiences by dismissing the innocent victims of such criminality.
