Why not ask Trump to spend a couple days to work on these farms that requires manual work like picking vegetables, I bet that he wouldn't last an hour, and the majority of the American people don't want to do that back breaking work for little pay, so if he reports all these illegal immigrants whats going to happen? I don't think there is a bigger fool in America than shit for brains DONALD TRUMP.

once they deport millions of illegal immigrants, I hope that she, Donald Trump and all of his followers are willing to do all of the undesirable jobs that pay next to nothing that they leave behind. I wonder how good are her apple picking skills in scorching heat. Or maybe working in a sweatshop 16 hours a day with no air conditioning would be more to her liking. those geniuses don't have a clue about what they voted for.

under the Biden-Harris administration, business has been very good for the cartels. Wide open borders and catch-and-release policies have convinced migrants that there is a strong probability that coming to the United States illegally will pay off. As a result, record numbers of migrants have decided to take the trek, and if need be, pay money to the cartels. By the Department of Homeland Security’s own reckoning, upwards of 80 percent of them engage smugglers to get them into the U.S. because the journey itself is inherently dangerous, and because these criminal syndicates do not deal kindly with migrants who don’t pay for their services. \n \nAccording to the Washington Post, “With revenue estimated at $4 billion to $12 billion a year, the smuggling of migrants has joined drugs and extortion as a top income stream for groups like Mexico’s Sinaloa and Jalisco cartels, increasing their economic clout throughout the hemisphere.” In other words, the cartels have a vested interest in maintaining that sort of revenue flow. If keeping a lid on things in the months leading up to an election that will determine the sort of border and immigration policies the United States has for the next four years, they may see slowing the flow as a prudent business decision. From the perspective of the cartels, a U.S. administration that releases or paroles in the majority of migrants encountered at our borders, and issues them work authorization documents, is likely to provide them with a steady stream of customers for their services.\n\nSOURCE, FAIR US org

He was in for four long years and all he done is hire and fired employees,he should take that time and build the wall he say Mexico was going to pay for,bubio you is an immigrant too

You a holes here in the comments section don’t understand that they are ALL FOR LEGAL IMMIGRANTS like themselves not illegals who you all are paying for. Idiots.

people are worried how much money we have given Ukraine, yet it's roughly what immigrants pay in taxes each year

Instead of paying for illegal immigrants who commit crimes , we will pay to have them removed. Still better that before ….\nMay not be cheaper, but it will be safer !

The government will have to build hundreds of jails to put millions of immigrants and they will need everything any jail need, guards, doctors, nurses, security systems, etc. , and all that means money from all taxpayers, because there is not way to arrest anyone and be deported right away. The taxes will be so much that millions won't be agree with that and they will stop working and that will destroy completely our economy. We can't just work to pay taxes and higher prices for everything. Please just think about it. If you only think to destroy others because you just hate them, take a moment and think about yourself first. What will bother you more a ugly brown immigrant cleaning floors and bathrooms or paying a lot more for everything.

Democrats in the 1800s: we need slaves for the economy you can't free them or everything will collapse\n\nDemocrats in 2024: you can't deport illegal immigrants or the economy will collapse.\n\nYou know illegals and the people who employ them don't pay taxes right? They are just basically used as cheap and next to free labor.

“Pulling up the ladder” behind you is a thing.\nAlso - a reminder that many undocumented workers are paying into social security…\nA recent study shows that undocumented immigrants paid nearly $100 billion in federal, state and local tax revenue in 2022 while many are shut out of the programs their taxes fund.

This dude is not smart, he blind, mandate is mandate?. No, stupid, all big scale action has balance disruption of the system.. Of course, deport criminal is priority, they are prejudice to economy and well being of society. Take immigrants that work in farmer for example, and other fields that supply necessity to population. How farmers will deliver products if they dont have workers? How the business will survive? How will people that need good have them? Farmers will get nuts, nobody to harvest their products, who will do the job? Oh! Get all those brainless senators for work in sectors of emergency. IT will affect the common people that need basic goods. The business people will lose income because their products will perish before consumers can have them. They need hire other people that will impose different price in services, for high demand, cant enforce to pay. In some point they have fill up for bankrupt. Population will be lack of basic. Anybody of common sense, analyze all that effect. No one those senators are able to answers the questions she put for them. ( They just said stupid words, We won majority , people voted in us) but morons, you will make a mess, in months all medeo/small business owners would stand up) Just imagine that.

Yea she is not all there. I agree with immigrants coming here legally but for everyone that is already here and had kids and a life established, pay taxes, and the whole 9.... they should not get deported. Doesnt makes sence. Now if they want to apply that moving forward to any one that ogers over the boarder and even if they arrive pregnantnd give birth her. Kids shouldnt have citizenship in that case. \n\nAnd for us that did come here legally, well we shouldn't be touched either. doesnt mkae sence.

This is Insane!!! What The Hell People?!?!?! I hope that the people on Social Security/Disability & Medicare are prepared for your benefits to be slashed or nonexistent, because MILLIONS of those illegal immigrants are what's allowing you to receive your benefits. Illegals pay in around $96 Billion Dollars into Social Security and Medicare yearly... even though they cannot receive any of those benefits. I know if my benefits change, I'm going to be PISSED!!! It's hard enough to live as it is. We are in for some really dark times people!!!

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 its a good thing Melania and her father got their papers due to her marriage to Trump already or they would be deported...such luck! How lucky she was to get in with an Einstein VISA even though she's dumb as a rock, allegedly, while undocumented workers and those who have filed for asylum or applied for a visa have to wait 20 or 30 years to get it, if they get residency at all after paying the last dime to the immigration lawyers who scam them.

I say give the latino community what they voted for even if it means getting rid of 100s of thousands of tax paying citizens who happen to be illegal immigrants who am I to tell the latino community what's best for them? Puerto Ricans were forced from their homeland due to Hurricane Maria and resettled in my home state of Florida they overwhelming voted for Trump in 2020 so I say let's help our fellow Americans by not complaining feeling bad or commenting on mass deportation they voted for it and they clearly know what's best for themselves

Make Democrat donors, politicians and voters pay for ALL illegal immigration costs.

Well at least all these people who are saying that immigrants are stealing their jobs can get their field working jobs back. Low pay & I don’t know if they get insurance or 401K’s but they’ll be getting their jobs back. And there won’t be any retirement if social security is taken away.

The cost is $60-$90,000 to hold one immigrant for one year average length to stay 3 to 5 years and that is a private facility run by contractors. cost for one convict in a state or federal prison 35,000 so who is learning their pocket and they’ve had people at least private facilities for seven years. Under Donald Trump‘s plan 1 million immigrants will be rounded up. Estimated cost 1 trillion.. and Donald Trump is at least rounding up 10 million you’re paying for it

Charge and imprison every person in America that employs an illegal immigrant. Jobs for the working class will soar. They will also pay more because you don't have 20 illegals building a house in 2 weeks!

The penalty for Illegals should be financial, not removal. I don't think we should limit the number of immigrants, full stop. Yes, they need to get paperwork to be here, and that should be part of the process. If you're illegal, come forward and get the paperwork to be here, then pay restitution by an added 5% tax every year moving forward for every year you were here illegally.\n\nRemoving even 5M undocumented citizens creates an employment vacuum that will hurt our economy. Why hurt our economy when you can boost our economy through billions of extra tax revenue.

Here are some options.\n1) put a complete ban on immigrations from Mexico for the next 10 years\n2) give work permits for people already here.\n3) remove the million or so already denied entry\n4) offer free rent for 10 years to those who volunteer to return to countries the came from. That would have to be limited.\n5) stop soros and ngo from paying people from crossing the border

Honestly I think the real problem is a smooth path to residency/citizenship. \nIllegal immigrants want to do it right but the system sucks and takes way too long. I’m talking more than 5, 10, 15 years. \nPeople act like you can get it done like going to your local Starbucks. Illegal immigrants pay taxes just like everyone else and don’t receive a lot of benefits.

the thing about the entry level jobs.. those are saved for the immigrants. Everyone i graduated with that’s canadian, can’t find a job. Immigrants i graduated with can find work easily.. because companies can pay them less.

Canada government don’t have money itself. They relying on old immigrant to pay taxes to feed new people. And called himself Government.?

It won't stop with the illegals. A mass round up and deportation is just phase 1 of Trumps plan. He will go after legal immigrants in phase 2. What maga morons dont understand is that illegals make up a pretty big part of the labor force in America. Mass deportation and the 60% tariff of anything from China (which is 90% of all goods sold in America) and 20% on everything ( food, oil, etc) will crash the economy and send us into a recession. You can't put high tariffs, which the end consumer (us) will end up paying and make things cheaper. It's like all common sense went out the window.

It's time to get LEGAL AND PAY TAXES ALSO OR LEAVE. They are GIVING billions of taxpayers dollars to illegals who come here and strain our systems while AMERICANS ARE LOSING OUT. We need our manufacturing back in our own countries. And our own farmers can handle our food. Our farmers are under fire. They need our support. And we have always had WORK VISAS for seasonal workers for AG. That doesn't mean they can come here illegally and DRAIN OUR RESOURCES . This isn't even remotely logical. You cannot have a successful economy or a secure safe country WITHOUT LAWS to govern immigration.

Undocumented workers paid 96 billion dollars into Social Security and Medicare through the INT. They are not eligible to collect from those programs but there work help sustains them. They do work Americans do not want to do. Hotels hire them, farmers hire them, meat packing plants hire them, construction companies hire them. Removing them will be a disaster. Banks says the American people have spoken for it, I didn't. Only 51 percent of uneducated voters for Trump wanted it. We Democrats understand they are needed here. Republicans in the red state on Welfare won't go to work and do the jobs immigrants do. What will happen is Trump will cut the taxes for the rich, raise our taxes and do away with Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and other needed social programs like CHIP, Meals on Wheels, School lunch programs etc... America will suffer and end up losing our allies and pulled out of the NATO agreement, which Russia wants us to do. Trump is friends with our enemies. He is a traitor to America and proved it when he stole top secret documents and refused to return them and showed them to people who had no clearance to do so. Dumb Americans voted him in after every warning from generals and all his staff to his own VP said he is not fit to sit in the oval office. Now all of America and our Allies will pay the price.

Immigrants, both documented and undocumented, commit crimes at a lower rate than natural-born US citizens. That is a statistically proven fact, and it makes sense considering that if we speed, we could get a ticket. If they speed, they might get deported. That's a fine to pay versus a potential death sentence... most people who immigrate here are trying to escape the very things they get accused of doing. Look, I'm not saying that people coming in illegally is a good thing, that every one of them has good intentions, or that border security is acceptable as it is. I just wish we put this much attention on those at the top of the income chain committing white-collar crime instead of something like this and fix the immigration situation without policies that will flip our already jacked up economy upside down for the sake of votes.

3:44 Most illegal immigrants are paid in cash. I doubt they are paying that much in taxes. My ex neighbor was a waiter. She told the IRS he was a dishwasher & never reported her tips.

Wait until the price of produce products go up. You really think Americans are going to pick fruits and vegetables for the wages paid to immigrants? Just like the proposed tariffs, the consumer is going to pay, NOT China!

CNN MSNBC SHOULD HOUSE THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AND PAY EVERYTHING IF THEY WANT TO KEEP THEM HERE

The 87,000 Fully armed IRS agents Biden hired to go after US citizens that didn't pay taxes on their tips can now go after actual criminals that broke FEDERAL IMMIGRATION LAWS.

What about the immigrants that have been working and contributing and trying to get citizenship for decades and the spouses of American citizens still fighting for their right after paying taxes for many years - are we raiding all families homes and splitting up kids from parents? Did we ever find the families for the 800+ kids that had no details taken still unable to contact families that trump split them from the first time? Or does that not matter cause it’s not YOUR kids? Huh. When they come and create the detention camps and ship people back to places they haven’t been in decades who cares right they have been paying American taxes and have no rights while their years of waiting for their citizenship - fix that maybe so those who are working, contributing can stay and work in the jobs they have and keep families together. But no let’s demonise EVERY single person because most who voted are ignorant just like abortion about the actual application and situations that arise within a MASSIVE spectrum. Just dumb it down to ANY illegal, and does that also include the legal folks that GOP decide aren’t anymore just cause they came from elsewhere on an invitation? Springfield residents I would suggest if you haven’t or can’t left the state already you find points of contact for legal battles. \n\nWelcome to the start of your facist, authoritarian, white nationalist, dictator era AMERICA. What follows was your own doing. To any woman that voted republican - No matter your faith there is no well I always vote republican defence. Women have and will die for lack of healthcare, their deaths are on your hands and every republican. And so we are clear there are ZERO babies ‘executed’ after birth cause anyone changed their mind. The deaths of fetus carried to term are due in almost all cases to massive complications, unviable development or other mitigating issues. Those babies were wanted. They were mourned. \n\nWhere is the magic money for all these deportations coming huh? Reconciliation won’t pay the bills, and once the workers who do the labour that effect service, hospitality, food supply the costs of things will rise. But apparently multiple Wall Street and top economists telling you outright that trumps plans will tank the economy still you don’t believe. Even though Biden landed the best recovery in the world post covid and gop. When musk and the rich are getting another tax break and the costs of food and gas rise who do you blame then? If it wasn’t for all the innocent ppl about to suffer I would wish you welcome to just implode with this vile plan but the dictators like putin are already rubbing their hands together in gleeful joy. People of Ukraine I am sorry. People of Yemen, Syria, Palestinian civilians, Israel hostages, lgbtq+ communities, non white Christian faith followers, blended families, veterans, minorities or anyone fleeing violence, death or persecution - there will be no aid or help by the GOP Trump administration and in fact I fear you will be targeted by hate and ignorance or selfishness and greed. But I hope enough columns of good remain to shield as many as possible from what is in their plans. Folks who voted for gop while being in the targeted communities you need to take a long hard look in the mirror and soon you may experience your choices in vivid regret. \n\nFor those who still have a conscience I share your heartbreak and wish the future 4yrs pass quickly and a flicker of hope that there is still good enough people who will offset the hate, division and evil that’s about to erupt all over the country. ?️

Hmmm, wonder who he thinks is going to do “immigrant” related jobs like farm work & jobs that don’t pay much?? Pretty sure American-born citizens will not be rushing to apply for these jobs (if that’s his plan??) idk!

If they can’t fire everyone of these people at ICE, they need to banish to a boring powerless position in the basement. Make ICE great again ?? USA. ?? Does this guy know he’s going to not have job for much longer? You can’t have ICE ran by a guy who’s going to make it intentionally difficult\n\nAnd yes they shouldn’t get “due process” because if you take away the very weak standards they had to let people in in the first place and pass their court hearing, they shouldnt get past.\n\nDid you know legal immigrations have to pass a physical and they require a whole host of vaccines and even - so far - 2-3 shots of a covid vaccine depending on type. They even require a yearly flu shot! I hope they take that requirement away soon. No one is talks about mandating LEGAL immigrations have to get the covid vaccine. But the point is ILLEGAL immigrants aren’t expected to any of these. \n\nNot to mention that legal immigrants, but presumably not TRUE Asylum seekers, have to pay THOUSANDS of dollars to get a green card. \n\nGee I wonder why so many legal Latino immigrants would be pissed that the had to work so hard and pay so much, and these assholes let millions of the 3rd world in with so little requirements that tens of thousands of violent criminals were let in. So much so that Venezuelan gangs were able to take over multiple apartment blocks and hold the occupants hostage and demand “rent” from them.

If you are mad about illegal aliens getting deported, you are mad about lower prices for American citizens. If you call someone a traitor for voting for trump you are a traitor yourself. They are illegally coming into our country. If you US citizens illegally go into other countries you will probably die or be held for ransom. Why are y’all so happy and ready to pay for other people when we have families veterans homeless to feed the government uses illegal immigration as an excuse to spend government funds as an excuse to rebuild America for Democratic party votes That is absurd and insane. If you support this, you are a threat to democracy and a traitor to the US the Democrats committed treason over the last four years and if you look back in history, it goes on and on They have never helped the American people for American people. They aren’t for us. Wake up, realize who controls the media realize who is trying to consistently brainwash you realize who doesn’t want our country where our bills say in God we trust to no longer be a Christian country. Let’s go back to a wireless and Affordable country. Let’s not instigate fuel support and fun wars across the world let’s tax other countries and receive money from other countries rather than take from American citizens that can’t afford to be taken from. in God we trust God bless America

No Vacancy! We have no jobs and no place to live. Put more Border Partol on Canada's borders. Didn't they hear the news, we put a cap on legal immigration, why would we take in illegal immigrants! Trump wants to deport them, its on their tax paying dollars, not ours! Keep them out! Canada do your job, enough is enough!

Canada is a complete joke. Most unaffordable place on earth. If you are a weak woke liberal that wants to be taken care of this is the place for you. If you want to work hard start your own business to be successful, good luck. Trudeau’s dictatorship has destroyed us, no freedoms of speech, criminals get released immediately, immigration is out of control. And immigrants have more rights than tax paying citizens. Also drug addicted lunatics roam the streets and cause havoc with our open drug using policies and criminal catch and release systems. Oh yea, and our medical system is a complete joke, takes hours to get an ambulance and even longer wait times in hospitals. Oh yes we also allow open drug use in hospitals…. It’s a complete joke.

Seems Funny how people R Complaining about how much this will Cost!!!! BUT IF USA ALREADY SPENT BILLIONS ON THESE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS??? N WE(AMERICAN TAXPAYERS) SENT BILLIONS TO OTHER COUNTRIES TO FIGHT THEIR WARS????? Y NOT INVEST IN MAKIN OUR COUNTRY SAFER N GET THESE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ALL OUTTA HERE!!!! This way these business owners will have to pay tge correct wages for American Citizens to work 4 them.

Ma'am advise some illegal immigrants from Mexico to go back in the line!! As a asian woman, I'm tired of these illegal immigrants coming here and feeling intitled.I stood in the line for hours to come here the right way.and Also, Trumph needs to hunt these factories, hiring illegals,and make them pay a hefty fine!! This lady is telling the truth.Put the wall.

Each year, undocumented workers pay $59.4 billion in federal tax contributions and $37.3 billion in state and local tax contributions. Contrary to the false narrative about immigration reform harming the economy, an earned path to citizenship for the millions of undocumented immigrants living and working across the United States would boost American economic growth, increasing U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), raising wages, and creating new jobs. Moreover, immigrants, regardless of their legal status, are a boon for the solvency of Social Security and Medicare. Indeed, the trustees who are charged with overseeing the Social Security and Medicare programs estimate that high-immigration scenarios lead to higher solvency for the programs

Defund all these org that supports this bullsht! Let these left wing host these illegal immigrants and pay for their expenses!

Deporting undocumented immigrants will cause many small businesses to struggle. Who will do the work that most people don’t want to do—like agricultural jobs, dishwashing, and lawn care? Undocumented immigrants contribute more to this country than many realize, and they also pay taxes through their purchases. Food prices will rise if we deport them because most Americans won’t take these jobs for low wages. If Americans take on these roles, they are likely to demand higher pay, which would increase costs across the board. In the end, we would be hurting ourselves and our finances. It’s already challenging enough, with many Americans living paycheck to paycheck. I believe that a mass deportation of undocumented immigrants would be a serious mistake.

We shouldn’t be preparing for an influx we need to prepare to close our borders. No more asylum seekers into Canada. Our resources are for the people that pay for them not for those who come here to benefit from our better standard of living. Fix things back home and then immigrate through the proper channels. We don’t need tent cities full of asylum seekers. For those that want to let all those people in then they have to go sign up to take responsibility for them with consequences if they don’t. I would bet the lineup for that would be very short.

The 1980's use to have Immigration sweeps through neighborhoods and Americans could call Immigration to report locations illegals were dwelling and working at. they aren't difficult to get out if they're only choice is to pay a consequence for entering illegally or leave on their own so it doesn't cost the Tax payer.

You're doing more harm for the immigrants. You welcome them here by the bushel and then they either pay their entire life savings to cartels for border crossings, Fuelling crime,drug rings,overdoses.\nThen when the jobs are no longer available you have them rely on debit cards YOU allowed, and paid for by the TAX PAYER also paying for wars that cannot be won other in the sense of Nuclear escalation/confrontation and possible annihilation for all.

Some people in their countries apply to come in legal. Pay money to USA immigration and they still refuse to give them a visa to visit It’s not as easy as she thinks.

Immigrants and latinos voted for trump despite his immigration crackdown which means the high inflation economy and paying household bills is the most important for them

The illegal immigrant that contributes to society is not who Donald Trump is worried about. Donald Trump will get out the illegal immigrant that is a convicted felon the criminal out of our country. We don’t need them here to hurt our women our children. Donald Trump said he wants people to come into the country they need to come in legally but the criminal will pay Will be deported. And I am just confused. Why does the Democratic Party want illegal immigrants here on our streets hurting our American people someone makes sense to me. Why should we have them in America and I’m talking about the criminals not the hard-working illegal. immigrants I also have friends that came into this country legally, they worked very hard to get here. It’s not fair to them to have people into this country illegally it’s just not right.
