We need our taxpayers money to care for our legal homeless citizens, and not illegal immigrants.

Who in their right mind brings a baby, riding on an adult’s shoulders, to a push and shove protest, trying to break into a country? The United States is a sovereign nation. Knock on the door and politely request admittance, going through the legal process.

If they are here illegally, they must go. We have laws that must be upheld. Come via legal port of entry and save yourself the trouble.

We have to control immigration. Legally and respecting the country, that's another story. ♥️????

She is so dumb when people get deported its going to be more hard to come back legally

They all need to go to a legal port of entry and file a request. Then go home and wait for a legal response.

“Illegal’. Is the key word. It doesn’t matter what country you came from. As President Trump has made very clear, coming to this country illegally is illegal. Hence the word illegal. \nWe actually have A LAW against it. \nIt’s the same in other countries. I’ve been to Africa and I can guarantee you I would never have been able to stay there without the legal process that Africa requires.

I just watched a YouTube video of a young Serbian musician girl flying 14 hours to Jakarta just to visit the U.S. embassy for an interview to get her working visa. In her vlog, she was so happy that she was approved, and she plans to move to Los Angeles to pursue a career in music.\n\nShe is coming to the U.S. the RIGHT way…LEGALLY.

DEPORT DEPORT DEPORT GO DEMAN YOUR OWN CORRUPT GOVERNMENTS HAVE SOME DECENCY GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY COME LEGALLY

Trump says EU tariffs will ‘definitely happen’ as Mexico, Canada and China retaliate \nTrump takes softer line on UK, saying ‘I think that one can be worked out’, while Mexico and Canada vow levies and to strengthen ties with each other \n \nPhilip Wen, Léonie Chao-Fong and agencies \nMon 3 Feb 2025 03.57 GMT \nShare \nDonald Trump has threatened to widen the scope of his trade tariffs, repeating his warning that the European Union – and potentially the UK – will face levies, even as he conceded that Americans could bear some of the economic brunt of a nascent global trade war. \n \nIt comes as Trump’s tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China, announced on Saturday, sparked retaliation from all three countries. Mexico and Canada have vowed levies of their own while China and Canada are seeking legal challenges. \n \nTrump said on Sunday night that new tariffs on the EU will “definitely happen”, repeating previous complaints about the large US trade deficit with the bloc and his desire for Europe to import more American cars and agricultural products. \n \nEmpty shelves remain with signs ''Buy Canadian Instead'' after the top five US liquor brands were removed from sale at a British Columbia liquor store in Vancouver. \nAsian sharemarkets tumble in response to Trump tariffs \nRead more \n“It will definitely happen with the European Union, I can tell you that,” he told reporters. “I wouldn’t say there’s a timeline but it’s going to be pretty soon.” \n \nTrump appeared to take a softer line on the UK, citing a good relationship with prime minister Keir Starmer while saying tariffs still “might happen”. “The UK is out of line but I’m sure that one, I think that one can be worked out,” he said. \n \n“Well Prime Minister Starmer’s been very nice, we’ve had a couple of meetings, we’ve had numerous phone calls, we’re getting along very well, we’ll see whether or not we can balance out our budget.” \n \nIn Canada, the department of finance published a list of US products imported into Canada that it will target with a 25% retaliatory tariff starting on Tuesday. \n \nThe list shows products that will be hit in the first round of retaliatory tariffs by Canada starting on Tuesday, and mounts to $30bn Canadian dollars’ worth of goods (about US$20bn). The impacted products include tobacco, produce, household appliances, firearms and military gear. \n \nCanada is also preparing for a second, broader round of retaliatory tariffs in 21 days that will target an additional C$125bn (US$86bn) worth of US imports. The second list would include passenger vehicles, trucks, steel and aluminum products, certain fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, dairy products and more. \n \nFILES-US-CANADA-MEXICO-CHINA-TRADE-TARIFFS<br>(FILES) US President Donald Trump speaks to the press after signing an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC on January 31, 2025. Trump is imposing steep tariffs on major US trading partners Canada, Mexico and China, with a lower rate on Canadian energy imports, said the White House on February 1, 2025. Washington will impose a 25 percent levy on imports from Canada and Mexico, with a 10 percent rate on Canadian energy resources, until both work with the United States on drug trafficking and immigration. Goods from China, said the White House, would face 10 percent tariffs.

Sheinbaum, in a statement on Sunday, said she will announce details on her government’s “plan B” as she insisted that Mexico “doesn’t want confrontation”. \n \n“Problems are not addressed by imposing tariffs, but with talks and dialogue,” she said. “Sovereignty is not negotiable: coordination yes, subordination no.” \n \n'Coordination yes, subordination no': Mexican president responds to Trump's tariffs – video \nSheinbaum and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau spoke by phone on Saturday after Trump’s administration imposed the new tariffs – 25% on goods from Canada and Mexico, with a lower rate of 10% for Canadian oil, and 10% on imports from China. \n \nTrudeau’s office said in a statement that Canada and Mexico agreed “to enhance the strong bilateral relations” between their countries. Canadian officials have had extensive dialogue with their Mexican counterparts, but a senior Canadian official said he would not go as far as to say the tariff responses were coordinated. \n \n“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau posted Sunday on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.” \n \nTrump acknowledged the sweeping tariffs he has imposed on Mexico, Canada and China may cause “short term” pain for Americans as global markets reflected concerns the levies could undermine growth and reignite inflation. Asian markets, cryptocurrencies and US and European stock futures slumped in early Asian trading on Monday. \n \n“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said. day, Trudeau said: “We’re certainly not looking to escalate, but we will stand up for Canada.” However on Sunday evening, a senior government official from Canada briefing reporters in Ottowa on condition of anonymity said: “We will obviously pursue the legal recourse that we believe we have through the agreements that we share with the United States.” \n \nThe official said the Canadian government considered the move by Trump illegal and said it violates the trade commitments between the two countries under their free trade agreement and under the World Trade Organization. \n \n“If other legal avenues are available to us, they will be considered as well,” the official said. \n \nCanada is the largest export market for 36 states, and Mexico is the largest trading partner of the US. \n \nCanada and Mexico ordered the tariffs despite Trump’s further threat to increase the duties charged if retaliatory levies are placed on US goods. \n \nChina also said it would file a lawsuit against the tariffs. The imposition of tariffs by the US “seriously violates” World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, China’s commerce ministry said in a statement, urging the US to “engage in frank dialogue and strengthen cooperation”. \n \nFiling a lawsuit with the WTO would be a largely symbolic move that Beijing has also taken against tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles by the EU. \n \nThe commerce ministry also said the tariffs were “not only unhelpful in solving the US’s own problems, but also undermine normal economic and trade cooperation”. China has said it would take countermeasures to “safeguard its own rights and interests”. It is not clear exactly what form these will take yet. But for weeks Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning has said Beijing believes there is no winner in a trade war. \n \nLate Sunday night, Trump said he would speak with Trudeau on Monday morning and shortly after said he would speak with Mexico as well, although he did not specify that he would speak with Sheinbaum. \n \nBeyond the official response, people were already thinking of ways to cope with Trump’s decision, including by sharing suggestions on social media for alternatives to US products. \n \nCanadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem on Saturday night at two National Hockey League games. The booing continued on Sunday at an NBA game in Toronto where the Raptors played the Los Angeles Clippers. \n \nFrom left to right, Toronto Raptors forwards Bruce Brown, Scottie Barnes and Chris Boucher react as fans boo the United States national anthem before NBA basketball game action against the Los Angeles Clippers in Toronto, Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025. (Frank Gunn/The Canadian Press via AP) \nToronto Raptors fans boo US national anthem after Donald Trump tariffs \nRead more \nOne fan at the Raptors game chose to sit during the anthem while wearing a Canada hat. Joseph Chua, who works as an importer, said he expects to feel the tariffs “pretty directly”. “I’ve always stood during both anthems. I’ve taken my hat off to show respect to the American national anthem, but today we’re feeling a little bitter about things,” he said, adding that he will start to avoid buying US products. \n \nIn the streets, people in Mexico were trying to absorb the announcement on Sunday, although some in the capital acknowledged that they were unaware of the measures. \n \nIn the border city of Mexicali, across from Calexico, California, some people were concerned about the wider implications of a trade war. \n \nDriver Alejandro Acosta says that he crosses the border weekly in his truck to deliver vegetables to US companies. He said he fears US businesses in the Mexicali Valley will no longer want to operate in Mexico and they will move to the US. \n \n“If they raise taxes on the factories here, jobs may also decrease,” he said.

American slavery was legal slavery in the United States from the 18th to the 19th centuries. Slavery originated in the early days of Britain's colonization of North America and was recognized by thirteen colonies in the Declaration of Independence in 1776.

There should be a DMZ border with Mexico so no one can cross it, like make a 100 foot gap. The USA needs to take care of the real citizens before we harbor illegal people no matter where they are from. Just come here LEGALLY!! Stop trying to guilt trip everyone just because you wear dark colored clothes and look desperate. We all have to earn what we have and so do you

People is allowed to come to USA but has to legally. If you go to Arab countries is also the same rule applied.

America’s message to the world… Either come here via a legal pathway… Or don’t come at all!

Poland has done the same only with special force being used. By special i mean bullets. There is a legal way to immigrate. We have enough poverty and poverty we dont need more of it. We sent almost a trillion dollars to ukraine. We can have fixed our own issues with all that wasted money. Its not the governments money is ours the tax payers who paid it.

If you came to America illegally, you committed a crime, and you need to go, PERIOD! Respect America and take all the LEGAL steps to be here. No other country allows this! They get free medical, housing, EBT cards, and IPhones! Americans are struggling, losing jobs, their cars, and houses, and many can barely feed their kids. We are tired of our tax dollars going to support immigrants. Take care of home first!

I do believe there exists a proper and established route to enter this nation legally. Perhaps they feel they're above waiting in line like the rest of the law-abiding?

I feel bad for many who want to come legally, but this mass attempt to force entry into the United States, this is not the right way.

Why Trump administration? It s LOW!!! We are country of immigrants, but we also country of LAW and ORDER!! Come here legally, and you will be more then welcome.

No sympathy from me. I'm discriminated against by the illegals and my black azz and my parents and their parents and their parents were born here legally.

If they came in illegal, they should be. Legal immigration exists.

You’re not welcome in the US if you can’t come legally. Your issues are not Americans problem. Go back to your country and make your country great again. \nLeave the US alone.

Legal immigration take a minimum of 8 years 40000 to 80,000 depending on your case the us benefits from not having legal immigration

Be forreal....Yall dont want them here whether legal or illegal.

We are glad they are scared because they should be. Americans respect legal immigrants and welcome them with open arms.

I don't care where you are from,if you are here illegally,then you need to get deported, some of my family came here from Scotland in 1830's legally it's not that hard to come here legally

Come in legally!!!!

They must leave the US voluntarily and come back legally.

We have many NBA players that are not legal and are not all black either. After season they go back home. We have citizens in this country that can play Basketball also should be considered. Legals.

MANY NBA PLAYERS ARE NOT LEGALS.

The funny part is the first Americans and Australias doesn't come to the US or Australia legally, they where illegal savage criminals who eradicate the natives and take their land. Now they talk about what is legal and illegal

if you come to our country illegally this is what's going to happen, I married a Chinese lady and I brought her in my country legally. And if you are coming here illegally expect to be deported very simple you break our laws and you will be deported

If they are not here legally they need to go and come back by legal means. Anyone that hire someone that’s here illegally needs to be dealt with as a criminal.

Race is not on the table. Legal citizenship is

Wouldn't matter if they were British..if they are not legal they get gone

Oh, absolutely, because we all know the legal system in the US is just flawless compared to Canada's

30% of Healthcare professionals are Filipinos, includes nurses, doctors, physical therapists and caregivers. They came here as legal workers. There are some overstaying but they are not criminals nor break the law of America, they only want to work. Pres. Trump should re-consider Filipinos, they are hard working people, they are professionals like IT’s, engineers, architects, etc. and help with the economy of America.
