Move to a different country.

I'm in an EU country and it's really rare to see a company do any background checks at all. Be honest, if/when you're asked about it of course - but just from personal anecdotal experience, it's rare that somebody even bothers to ask. (this might vary of course from country to country)

You need a clean background to move to another country if you're not a European. I specifically had to submit a Canadian RCMP fingerprint based background check when I moved to Iceland. EU nationals have it much easier, since the relocation process in the EU does not require that level of scrutiny.

If you're in the US, cross the border into Mexico and re-enter as an asylum seeker.

Until the idiots in charge change this (by enforcing the existing laws), you should take maximum advantage of its opportunities.
