Here is the Esquire article this video references. Reporter Ryan Lizza was greeted with hostility, secrecy and threats when he tried to find out why the Nunes family kept pretending the family farm was in California -- when it had been moved a decade ago to Iowa, where they could hire undocumented workers and keep it quiet and Nunes could still pretend to stand with Trump on immigration:
Why would the Nuneses, Steve King, and an obscure dairy publication all conspire to hide the fact that the congressman’s family sold its farm and moved to Iowa? I went to Sibley to find out. Things got a little strange.... In every conversation I had with dairy farmers and industry insiders in northwest Iowa, it was taken as a fact that the local dairies are wholly dependent on undocumented labor. ... “Dairy farmers are very deeply patriotic and American, and yet here they are hiring these people who are not American,” he said. “And maybe they feel a little shame over that or feel like they are exploiting [people] and they don’t want that to come to light.”
