And this is what we call, a ladder puller. Now that she was able to become a citizen, rather than helping her family members to get their legal status, which can be difficult, tedious and very expensive, she could care less if the lives they have already spent decades on building here are completely destroyed. She seems to be fully aware that it can be a difficult process, and I personally have seen that it’s not exactly a fair one either. I have seen some people spend not only years waiting on a hearing or a determination, but spend thousands they scrape together on lawyers and obtaining records, while others submit minimal evidence and get a determination in weeks. Instead of admitting that there are problems with the system and vote for people who are actually trying to help, she wants the same system that made it a difficult process for her to stay the same for them. In fact she voted for someone who is going to make it harder if not impossible for them to come back the right way in the first place. Is she not thinking? If they get deported, that is going into immigration records and when that gets pulled up when they apply to come back it will likely cause any legally efforts to return to be rejected. And who knows how long that will stay in their system? Could be years, could be permanent. Biden’s idea to help those undocumented who are married to citizens to be able to apply and get a temporary visa to stay here while they wait so that families wouldn’t have to be broken up by having the applicant return to their country of origin. That was not just a great idea from a humanitarian point, but they could apply for a job that wasn’t going to take advantage of them by paying below minimum wage, with no rights if they are injured. That could help bring local wages up. They would start contributing back by paying their fair share of taxes, and do on. Republicans in red states stopped it though and are suing the Biden administration for trying to do what? Help people and fix some of the issues that our broken immigration system has caused? \nSorry lady, but you earned your family’s ire and whatever treatment you get from the administration you voted for.

My Nani died longing to go back to her haveli in Rawalpindi. She used to burst out in tears and blamed Jinnah and Gandhi for separation from her homeland. It was really sad to hear her stories. They lost everything. She lost two of her daughters on the way up the riots. They went searching for them but never found anything. I can’t imagine hungry, exhausted, homeless mother dealing with loss of her children when still frightened that Muslim mob will rape or burn them any day. People say it both sides. But it’s evident from history Dr Ishtisk Ahmed quotes it was Muslim who started the riots first in bihar, bengal and Jinnah originally supported uprising in parts of Punjab, he wanted to show that we can’t live together to justify for separate state. Sadly now we have more Muslims in India then Pakistan and they live happily in our own neighbourhood. We attend each others functions and study in same schools, sit on same benches, use same school bus. It was all to fulfil Jinnahs desire to be supreme leader of Pakistan.

‼️Take back Canada‼️Did you hear Hong Kong pathway policy? \nWe are local citizens. We are not satisfied with the hk pathway policy, why can they enjoy the same benefits as our locals ? \nIn the past, people who applied to become a PR had to wait at least two or three years. During this period, they had to pay international student fees and then transfer to a work permit step by step, or join the investing immigration program, and then start to enjoy the benefits after becoming a PR. However, as soon as the hk pathyway people landed, they enjoyed the same benefits immediately as the locals(liked free education, local student fee for university, Child care benefits) which the locals felt were unfair. The days they (hk pathway people)contributed in Canada are very short, and the benefits they receive are far greater than the taxes and contributions they pay. The locals just feel that the benefits they enjoy today are indeed the contributions they have made to society (including paying taxes) over the years. It is reasonable to get a reward for how much they have paid and contributed, but it is unfair for those Hk pathway people to enjoy the same benefits as locals. \n\nThe hk pathway temporarily policy need to be amended. They shouldn’t receiving full benefits as locals while waiting for PR, they should pay the international student fees. Also, too many hk people abuse this policy, use fake academic qualifications to study, and then their whole family receives CCB , also enjoy local students is unfair to our locals. By the way, most of them after getting the PR they will go back to Hong Kong,they have no intention of staying here and make contributions to our country.\n\nThe HK pathway is a temporary policy. The immigration policy can be revised at any time just liked study permit has mandatory amendments and additional condition recently . The Hk pathway can also be amended.

Ohhh if it was her own child I’m sure she wouldn’t be saying that’s ok.., there are many like her out there. They get those papers and they think they work for the White House. If she would’ve visited Mexico and had a kid while visiting and didn’t have the money for a green card it would have been a completely different situation. For those just because you got your papers do you not think that there are people that came here as infants or kids to immigrant parents that came to work to provide for their kids it’s not that easy to get your green card it cost thousands of dollars. Many immigrants that I know and worked with including myself, I came here as a refugee. Immigrants are the hardest working people I know. Unfortunately a lot of the ones that came here as kids grew up in some neighborhoods that are not so great and mainly are kids that were born here that are in gangs or doing drugs or violent so don’t blame immigrants saying they bring all this with them it was already here … drugs gangs violence was already here. Gangs started in the White House with their red and blues. Then they say they are taking all the jobs.. the jobs have always been here but people that are citizens are too lazy to go get jobs or keep jobs ( not all citizens) but the ones that are complaining immigrants usually come from villages without any media or drugs or gangs ect. They simply come here for better opportunities or for jobs. They come to work not to freakin take your jobs… this country everyone is a damn immigrant this country was taken from the natives taken with violence by killing them , rapi!’ Them. And people sit here and say we are here to take back our country… ohhh please stfu!!!!! \nMajority of crimes were committed by our Americans but they look for immigrants and pin their crimes on them… Donald Duck is a damn immigrant he needs to stfu and go to sleep with his pu&@@@ grabbing tiny hands… shame on anyone that supports deportation..

They can practice their religion and traditions like anyone else. But, when you are welcomed into our country and you start wanting to raise your flag, stop us from celebrating Christmas and do U-turns everywhere you go in your car because that's what you verbally say is acceptable in your country, it becomes ridiculous and people are not responding well to any of of it. Then screaming racism and that your just being discriminated because of the color of your skin to get get suppress the situation and get what you want is absurd, while being smug in born and raised Canadians faces. \n\nI find it funny that I have yet to meet a new immigrant that has come to Canada and they all claim to have been born here. It's really ignorant to lie to a persons face and to think that we don't know that your doing it. I hardly see the Canadian flag raised anymore and see everyone else's flag raised. Yet, most would not allow any of us to go and raise out flag in their country. wth.

What people don't understand is that you can't just start a process in any country unless you have and meet the grounds for starting a process. Each process has its own regulations. Example: For asylum to take place, you have to prove you have a well founded fear of persecution from your home country due to your race, religion, or political opinion. Most of the illegals claiming asylum base on economic hardship, or violence from local gangs, will not win an asylum case. Wanting a better life for your family is not considered valid grounds. The same with legal status: You have to first become a resident which means you have to be petitioned by an immediate family member ( A Parent or sibling with a legal status in the US). Depending who petitioned you, it can be a very lengthy process, up to 26 yrs if your sibling submitted the application! Process is much faster for spouses and kids of US Citizens. Only after several years as a legal resident can you apply for Citizenship. Spouses married to US Citizens is 3 yrs, IF you know english. If you don't you might have to wait till you are 65, when you qualify for the test to be in your native language, but only if you have been a resident more than 20 yrs and so forth. As you can see doing it legally, is a lengthy process, but all these caravans think they can just march in and let the countries accept them without going thru the process and it has caused major problems all the way around. That's why the laws must be enforced to eliminate these invasions!

This dude is very slick but obviously he’s a raving bigot surreptitiously spreading his hate as reasonable discourse. Why not mention the fact that Canadian white birthrate is around 1.2 children per woman currently and we used to have about seven working people to every retired one and now we are down to less than three working people per every retired person in Canada. \n \nWe need these immigrants because of our disastrous demographics; why do you think white supremacists in America want to take away birth control? They know they need more white children if they are going to get rid of 10 to 20 million immigrants. Every white Canadian women needs to start having five children or we need all these immigrants.

Are we talking about a mass deportation of people who came into this country illegally? The funding and the resources are the problems. Trump is not going to be able to deport as many as he proposes. If some of them have been here and started an American-born family, then they should get special consideration, but if it's decided they get deported it's really not the fault of the government, it solely rests on the shoulders of those who come in our country and break our laws. If the idea is to become an American Citizen breaking the law is not the first thing to do to swear allegiance. It's confusing. My hope is that we get this issue behind us with fairness and compassion, without sending the message that you can just come here without due process.

Where is the money going to come from. Not from the rich. Gas and eggs just to start. Maybe the Russians the GOP sold us to might foot the bill but I highly doubt it.

And America has Tom Homan...and true patriot that will end this illegal border crossing end. Of course we aren't going to deport every one...but start with the felons, criminals and gang bangers and anyone that commits a crime here.

What affects one of us, effects all of us. Wait until the Trump supporters find out their benefits start being cut down or cut off,prices go up for everyday supplies and groceries bcz of the tariffs and deportation of migrant workers, generational farmers go bankrupt and companies start laying off or relocate overseas. Tick tock,Trump supporters voted for this but unfortunately we'll all be affected by their stupidity.

She’s going to find out once the mass deportations start, her skin color will be the reason she gets rounded up too.?

Trump will make a total mess out of this. Crops will rot in the fields. Farmers will go bankrupt, truckers will lose money because there will not be produce to deliver. Any produce in the stores will become very expensive. The rich will start complaining that they don’t have anyone to clean their house or trim their gardens. ???????just wait!

Everyone stayed silent on his lies about Kamala and the border and about crime by immigrants. Now politicians are going to start speaking up? You’re watching the eroding of our Constitution.

Lady, one day you are going to find yourself very much alone if you don’t start to prioritize the well-being of your family over a crooked politician. Also, why would you wish your hardships upon others? I don’t want anyone to experience some of the difficulties I’ve experienced.

All I am going to say is when it starts happening all you folks who voted for these folks better stay off Scoali Media crying. You asked for this and now you get what you asked for.

I am a double hater cant stand Trump and I am a farmer, i dont use immigrants because i just grow crops that can be mechanically harvested and I have a small farm, But in the past I used to manage large farms where we had a lot of immigrants most were illegal and people don't understand why they're illegal It's because there is an arbitrary cap on how many migrants can come from Guatemala and Mexico if they wanted to come legally just a normal worker They have a 60-year waiting list so it's just impossible to come here legally. Most of these people are very hardworking good people that come here to work for 5 to 7 years save up money and then go back to Mexico or Guatemala build a house and start a business in their own country. \n\nThis year i begrudgingly voted for trump because for me the biggest issue is with the federal and state regulations that make farming much harder than it needs to be especially regulations on diesel engine emissions that cost me tens of thousands of dollars a year and many months of not being able to use my equipment that I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on. And Kamala was the one who enforced the CARB emmisions standards that diesel engine manufactures have to comply with to sell into California which is the biggest consumer of these engines. \n\nLike right now I have my pickup truck that's been down for 6 months because of emissions problems and so many of the vehicles have emissions problems that the parts to fix it don't even have an ETA because they need to fix so many trucks and I have two other tractors broke down that I can't use all my friends that are farmers have a lot more and dems want to significantly increase emmisions standards in 2026. \n\nYou simply can't grow food at scale without reliable diesel engines There is no alternative The vast majority of food is planted and harvested mechanically in the US The bigger issue with food is not well illegals get deported It is will the diesel engines run to harvest 90% of the calories in plant them. \n\nWe have robots that can milk the cows most of the things that migrants harvest can be harvested mechanically and they are in other parts of the world It's just cheaper to do it with labor once that's not the case it will be mechanized. I would prefer to keep migrants here but give them legal working status if they have productive jobs and they pay tax.

So you are going to start knocking on people's doors based on skin color and request their status?

Get ready to start taking multiple off days to go take care of your sick loved ones. Do you think Hr cares about you?

Wait until Trump starts Mass Deportations applied for asylum in Canada it's going to grow and once you get them in You will not be able to remove them mark my words!

We are in debt we have our own Citizens going with out and the illegals getting everything get rid of the trash and start taking care if our own back yard but states don't have to support seeing how is federal and illegals can go any where in the country just means more ICE against in sanctuary states to focus on driving offenses seeing how illegal can get license in some states and so on so forth

Lmoa !!?? that first lady sounds just like Trump !! me,me,me. At this point, i dont care. I just want this shit show to get started so i can see if these same people will go on camera again.

If you going to deport CRIMINALS, YOU HAVE TO START WITH TRUMP\nA RAPIST AND CRIMINAL, AN INSURRECTIONIST AND TRAITOR

Y are you a idiot clown it has to start some where did you forget illegal or that means nothing to you clown y should my taxe money go to illegals stop making videos if your dumb

This guy is in fantasyland. Notice how he says we’re going after the criminals 1st. That’s because the 15 million who have come through the caravans ARE NOT ILLEGAL. They have legally asked for asylum and they are awaiting their asylum hearings in immigration court. TRUMP can’t touch those. In Texas, many of these people have their 1st immigration court hearings in 2027 & 2028!! It usually takes at least 2 years to get to “trial,” then if you lose, you have 2 appeals and each appeal can take 2-3 years.\n\nEven the criminal aliens they pick up will be entitled to have their day in immigration court. This is nothing new. Bush and Obama deported millions of criminal aliens!! Criminal aliens have always been deported. This has never stopped, regardless of who’s the president. Look up ICE detention facilities. You have 2 big ones in California, Otay Mesa & Calexico; in Arizona it’s Florence & Eloy; in Texas it’s Harlingen. They’ve been operating before & during the Biden administration.\n\nAnd wait till businesses & employers start complaining. ?. Stephen Miller could’ve gone after the slaughterhouse meatpacking industry illegals during the pandemic. They were easy targets because they were the only ones working and ICE had the manpower to do it. Did he do it? Of course not!! America would’ve starved to death. \n\nMAGA nation has been played.

Then Elon Musk will have to go also. He was in the U.S. on a student visa. He did not enroll in school but instead spent that time working on starting up a company. He later lied about this on immigration forms when applying for citizenship.

As a Black woman, I’m going to sit back eat my popcorn and laugh as they start this mass deportation. Latinos asked for this. But I’m also going to sit back and laugh at White people when groceries and other things start going up. These people do jobs most Americans don’t want to do. I wish she had asked him do this mass deportation include White immigrants who over stayed their time or Black and Brown are the only ones they are going after.

If they are here illegally, they must go. If they want to become a permanent resident they should leave early and start the legal process to come back.

They go to Private colleges run by Indians who started this IELTS (watch them dissappear) SCAM . Made private colleges in CANADA in Industrial malls or in office towers (Real CANADIAN colleges have campuses, student housing etc). Plus the degree from Private colleges are not recognized at all as Legit Government Colleges and Universities) . Scams by Indians on Indians not CANADA. They dont even go to school allot of them, they work MIN WAGE fast food jobs and drive TRUCK). So those students will be happy when they go back to there farms in Punjab with lots of credentials worth the same as an INDIAN College not CANADIAN !!! You students been scammed by lies you will become permanent residents. Now youll be lucky getting a 3 year work visa . Enjoy your LESSON students !!!

Remember wanting 60% of the Hispanics do construction work work and meat factories cutting up meat and chicken to send it to the market and grocery stores and some of them work out in the field for 10 12 hours a day without complaining rain or hot weather and get paid minimum wage just to be out there to have all those vegetables send to the markets and to the groceries now that's where all the prices are going to go up because there ain't going to be not too many people doing that kind of work I'm not being racist but black people and white people will not be out there out in the field for 10 to 12 hours a day they will start complaining it's not easy work it's hard work and the rest of the 40% are wise or blacks are meat cutters Park Construction like I say 60% are Hispanics that do that kind of work everything is going to go up the prices are going to go up and the economy is going to crash everything is going to go up prices on Foods clothing all the Imports Blake Automobiles and parts animatronics and parts and clothing that mostly comes from China all that's going to go up and we're all going to have to pay more money out of our pockets like a extra dollars more and this is the truth??? Trump is considered the worst president in history and it's going to get worse with him with the second term in 2025

oh boy this is going to be a wild time when they actually start doing this.

Small businesses will start going out of business because they can not find workers. Family farms will be the first to fold. Mark my words. It will be yet another example of voting against their own best interests. Groceries will increase in price because availability will shrink.

What's wrong with you people. Trump and his mega cronies said they're going to rip families apart and they're going to deport them all. Old young children whatever they don't care. They believe they have a mandate. Go ahead keep having your little news discussions like it's just no big deal. The media better wake up and start telling the people what it's going to be like, you already blew it pre-election.

He is going to sign F America orders. This is not what America wanted only about half, and that half is starting to realize they were lied to by MAGA and Trump.

Cut off all the welfare and free housing immediately then start a go back to your country program. Once they get cut off from all the free stuff they will want to go back to their country! Joe biden and Kamala has destroyed this country and CNN knows it too ? Allegedly

If you a rat catcher, always gonna be a rat, who smart. And. You can go after it and he/she outsmart you and you lose sleep, OR you can identify that it an unusually 'gifted' rat, with purer survival instinct, and you turn a blind eye to whatever it do or when you see it. It gonna be this way, with deporting. That why, this senator not president, at this time. WHY Trump wanna race into the White House and start signing executive orders, like this guy describe? Trump smarter this time, and he not above using illegals for his personal gain. If Trump in a rush, he still in trauma about legal issue. He need to show his confidence right away, by taking his time. Walk back into his old office, set up PS5 Pro fo son, when he on vacation. Check it some of the changes he made in White House, unchanged. Change them back. This the last term.

Cost to deport 1 million migrants 88 billion dollars. Sad I believe no one is going to see who is legal and just round everyone up because Trump has whipped everyone up in a frenzy. People forget he started a lot of the mess himself. May God help us all.

Its going to be funny watching them try to do this lol if by any chance they manage to do it businesses will collapse and the US economy will start to collapse. These are the slave people that do the work no one else wants to do or they wouldnt be here. I got the popcorn ready for this humanitarian crisis

These people will soon find out that having a visa to be here isn't going to matter. When the deportations start it will be up to those people to prove they belong including being born here. Not the other way around. They're not going to bother to sort out who stays and who goes. They'll all be deported and have to start all over. \n\n.

Banks is such a moron and a spineless crook!! And also a F***ing racist! If they are going to kick out criminals and rapists first, start with Trump!

So many contractors are going to start regretting their vote ??

Correct.. He's not talking about 100,000 criminals.. He means 100,000 illegals period, and they going to START with the criminals. THEN on to all the OTHER illegals. THAT'S the plan! it's not sugar-coated. It's not apologetic. It's just as harsh as you're reporting (or harsher) and it's going to happen. Clutch your pearls all you want. ?

Worried about your life and the hell with democracy. Wait until they start 2025. You are going to lose more than you think. Read project 2025. Too late now. You will be sorry

This guy is a blow hard! Let’s start by using the 1.5 billion dollars we spent on illegals in the last 2 years feeding, housing and free medical. What is the cost for the next year, years? They have to go they are in this country illegally…..

Oh I can't wait for this to start... when veggies cost $5.00 for one apple, and an ear of corn is $10\n\nPeople living in cardboard boxes shaking a tin cup with a sob story I will simply say... I am going to tell you what my family told me when I was disappointed in Trump winning... GET OVER IT\n\nYou brought this on yourself and if you voted for him and end up in that box, I won;t help you by giving you a dollar I will piss in a bottle and say drink it, it's better than nothing.

??? He's creating black jobs, way to go Trump supporters! I thought the Shit Show season 2 was going to start on Jan 21! Its already started, great! Can't make this shit up!

Just wait.... blanket tariffs on imported foods, plus removal of nearly all our domestic agricultural production capability.\nYou voted for him because eggs are too expensive, well buckle up snowflake because all of us are going to be paying TONS more for ALL groceries once they start doing this. And you can expect most small and medium farms to declare bankruptcy within a year... and your eggs won't even be cheaper - much more expensive actually. Well done.

Being respectful really you’re gonna throw out all these immigrants that do the crops so does that mean you Americans will roll up your sleeves and start doing the job that they were doing I don’t think so cause the majority of these people they’re rather go ahead and go on welfare than they actually really do a job and you know that’s a fact and that’s very true. Look at the unemployment.

As first generation American all this endless whining is getting old. When my family came here, they all had to have a health certificate and a sponsor that guaranteed they would have employment and housing waiting for them when they got here. If not, they weren’t going to be allowed on the boat to start with. No free housing, health care, food or education. \n \n\n So what part of ILLEGAL ALIEN isn’t being understood. This kind of nonsense isn’t allowed in virtually any other country on the planet. Try to cross into Mexico or Canada illegally and see where you end up. The argument is Americans don’t want to do the jobs that the illegals do yet back in the day Americans did do these jobs. The problem is too many Americans today think jobs that require physical labor are beneath them and too many are getting paid way too much for what the job they’re doing entails. Sorry but flipping burgers and asking if you want fries with that IS NOT a job worth $15 or $20 bucks an hour.

Well, hopefully the people that live off the government, the American people and the majority of white people starting to go to work that’s a good thing. All the workers we see basically Mexicans and I’d like to see the white Americans to take the Mexican jobs. It’s gonna be very amusing no more food stamps.. work work work will be available. Those are low paying job, but at least they are jobs.
