Why tho. America sucks right now. Literally get here in find everything so fucking expensive you want to leave. You're basically walking into homelessness by coming here.

Because of Biden and Harris! They're trying to get votes because they know Americans are too smart to vote for their dumba$$es again!

I feel like they make all these immigration laws that ultimately only hurt people trying to get in legally. Almost seems like they're promoting coming illegally. Maybe we should just have open borders and realize most people aren't violent criminals.

President Biden might want to put together a task force made up primarily of those from border states and those with large immigrant populations. The task force can be requested to make an up-to-date assessment with our successes and failures, a new list of goals with steps to get there, as well as new ideas to try out on current problems, while suggesting new policies and government procedures. Whatever we're doing it just isn't working anymore so we must do better. Immediately, please.

you see Venezuelans are trying to get into Mexico and they ain't letting them now evn the Mexicans can see having flood of migrants isn't easy now they're trying to enter the USA \n\nI hope all this crisis stop \nEuropeans should help on this migrants too not just the middle East other people are also suffering in other places Canada should help Australia new Zealand and other better countries should help \n\nSaudi won't lend a hand because they ain't Muslims \n\nthis is how the hypocrite countries tend see things ????\n\nGod helps us all ??

I get it sausages because they’re fags good one lol

This is exactly why we should give them a legal way to get in and have them enter the country properly we're an entire country of immigrants let them in if they have the money to pay coyotes they have the money to come to America

Cops treat citizens like the scum of the earth. I can’t even imagine how they treat illegal immigrants trying to storm across the border.\n\nI’m not saying we should just open the borders the everyone, but my heart goes out to them. I can’t imagine the disrespect and dehumanization they get from border patrol. Acting like they’re rabid animals trying to get out of a cage.

Yeah get the hell out of here your guys's country so messed up over there and then you're just going to bring it over here but to be honest about it everybody who voted for biden they wanted this WAY TO GO JOE BIDEN AND HIS VOTERS

The reason everyone wants to come to America is look how much money we throw away through the welfare and Medicaid systems alone to perfectly healthy people they don't even do welfare checks to see if they're getting our government is ignorant as the money they throw away through hard-earned tax payers dollars is ridiculous anybody could scan this government out of money it's not hard to get help in this country there's help everywhere you just got to know where to look for it here

Goosebumps.. wt we try to escape. N have to go threw feeling it may b the only hope to take that chance.. some of y'all have no idea what that's like .. nd it shows .. plenty of space we're just set up off greed nd selfish ways of operation, among our own society. Which is built up from everyone around the world but Hispanics have been in the land Texas nd California was originally theirs .. man life is weird , so much gets fuzzy n blemished we don't see the mere existence in the eyes of some these ppl .. the countless ppl that die trying the screams .. the treachery.. \n\nWe're all one ..

They’re just trying to get to New York City as fast as they can to make sure that Donald Trump is OK!

The democrats make them believe they're entitled, Trump gotta get back in power , listen to their damn voice demanding to be let in , the army should rubber bullet them , head home and fix ur country , I'm living here and struggling , no help

This is happening EVERYWHERE in Western countries. They want to break our communities. You can’t blame the men and women leaving Venezuela or other countries looking for a better, safer life. We’ve got to stop hating one another. If the governments in all countries did their jobs properly and looked after their people, they’d not want to leave. America broke Venezuela, same as they try and destroy anyone who doesn’t do what they say. Learn some Spanish, make some new friends. There is strength in numbers, we’re going to need all we can get to face the bastards that are creating the chaos. Peace out. ✌?

This is ridiculous. I consider myself an independant cuz I agree with certain things on both sides but on immigration I lean republican\n\nThis country is the only country ppl do this in. Y do everyone wanna come to the USA. We gotta do something and I actually agreed with putting up a wall or some sort of stable barrier. Either come here legally or stay where you're at. I'm from the Caribbean and had to wait 7years for my greencard after filing and came here legally and these ppl just wanna rush our borders illegally. And I get your country is inhumane and sucks but we can't take in everyone who lives in a country that sucks\n\nWe have a huge homeless problem in this country and this will only add to it, not to mention these ppl can't work here and will probably go on welfare which puts more strain on the system and the taxpayers. We need to take care of our own b4 taking care of others. Why dont these ppl go rush canadas borders or go to mexico or somewhere else. This angers me

When they get here they’re going to start wanting to go back ha….

Use this energy against their own government!. What is the US government doing about it? Get Biden out fast. Everyone knows Bidens' mind ain't right, now they're trying to take advantage of Obama and his puppet ?

We're did an illegal alien get a Pittsburgh Steelers hoodie?

This is deplorable and it’s going to destroy our country in so many ways. First, our social, educational, and criminal systems cannot absorb this many people all at once. We have enough people immigrating here legally. We don’t need all these illegals flooding over.\nThis is all Joe Biden and the Democrats’ fault, for not doing anything for two-plus years, except inviting these people to come here. These people get benefits, free healthcare, welfare probably, phones, and they shouldn’t. They should be told to go home. They should not be given a court date and then released into the United States! That’s ridiculous. They should be loaded on a C-130 transport, retrofitted with seats and shipped home. The majority of them are not going to show up for their court date. They’re going to disappear into the United States, work under the table, take jobs away from Americans, and send billions of more dollars back to their home country where they have family. I think currently, $250 billion gets sucked out of the US economy every year, due to illegal immigrants all sending $50 each, per month, home to their families in their native country. That money should be being spent here.\nLastly, all these illegals and the “anchor babies” they are going to have here, and the descendants of those babies, are all going to vote Democrat in the future, because of this lawlessness. Then we’ll have one-party rule in this country. That will destroy the country. It’ll be a socialist dictatorship, which is not good. The worst part is, many of these women coming across, are going to have a baby within a year. That baby, who by law is automatically a US citizen, becomes their key to citizenship, because once that baby turns 18, he or she can sponsor his parents to become citizens and also sponsor other family members. It’s not right. That amendment to our Constitution, was meant for descendants of slaves to become citizens, NOT to be used the way it’s being used today.\nAnd if we’re not careful we will all be speaking Spanish in the future.\n\nVOTE REPUBLICAN! It’s this country’s only chance and DEFINITELY vote for Trump in 2024. He’ll fix this mess…

I have no problem with people coming here but do it legally us Americans aren't tryin to keep paying for all of you and none of you pay your fare share of taxes yo for real what the fuck type time are these dems on you know how dangerous that is do you understand how easy it is for Chinese or Russian splinter cells to enter the country like that do you know how easy it would be for them to blend in seeing that we're a country of multiple races of of people none of you think about that do you and it time for America to worry about its own backyard and mind our fucking business and get politicians out-of-office that have personal ties with other countries as far as personal profit gain

Nope. You're not getting in. No.

They’re killing themselves to get in,I’m working my A off to get out.*To get away for a while anyway ?

Get ready to fight FBA. We already know where they're gonna send them when they get here.

My god yes, this exactly what I'm seeing as a born and raised Canadian. I just work hard, have most of my money taken and limits to me to just working 40+ hours a week so I can go home and watch some youtube. Everything you're saying doesn't just apply to immigrants. People born and raised here are seeing how screwed they're getting, and we're supporting everyone who is coming here, or need more medical, or income support, or have a bunch of kids and are single, and that's is all you get to do.

The U.S. is such a worthless country. Our government is so trash too. We have so many issues and NOTHING is getting resolved. Mark my words, you can’t keep on pissing off your citizens like this. We’re all angry and tired and emotionally charged. Won’t be long until riots happen again and we’ll cut off the head of the snake.

You know what, I’m an immigrant too. I came to America in 1988 from a communist country to have a better life and have religious freedom. But it took us more than 5 years, if not more, to get approved and jump every hurdle, every flaming hoop, and else they asked us to do, BUT, WE DID IT! Why do people think it’s ok to be able to come here illegally when others have to Jump through hoops to get here? And the stupid fucks who think they should be allowed to do that shit, should be made to put em up in THEIR HOMES AND NOT ON THE TAXPAYERS DOLLAR! Period point blank!!!! A country without rules will fall into anarchy. So many people do shit the right way, why do others think it’s ok to say fuck it and became a burden on the economy? Everywhere around the world, there are borders in place, and they’re there for a reason, to keep order, and to prevent illegal entry. Nobody’s saying not to come here, or that you’re not welcome or wanted here. But you have to do it the right way. Millions of people had to do it like that, by the books, the right way, you don’t get a free pass to come here illegally cause it’s hard, or it takes a long time. You’re not the first person to go through this hardship.

This isn’t the legal way to go. They figure Mexicans can band together and take on the borders. It’s so true, we can’t help the world. But it annoys me that people think they can come here , apply for social assistance on our money. You should see how badly want to come out to Canada. Where everything is free! No it’s not. Free for you but not the taxpayer. We’re feeding your families. While you have 6 kids on purpose to get a higher bonus. It’s sad.

This is absolutely disgusting and just plain barbaric why the heck we want these types of deranged people over here we really have enough of our own that we can barely handle and take care of.\n\nAnd then they go on to complain about what a s***** country this is and burn up our flag not want to stand up for the national anthem Etc yet are so desperate to get there behinds over here! \n\nWhy not try to work on your own country make it be what you want it to be because if you think you're going to come over here to change our country to fit your standards or your type of mindset sorry that's not going to happen because otherwise we'd have the same type of Chaos you guys are trying to escape from... supposedly...

ID JUST OPEN FIRE THIS IS GETTING STUPID!!! STAY IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY AND FIX IT DONT JUST LEAVE!!? LIKE WHAT!?! We don't want you right now we're all poor too and I can't even afford to live on my own working a full-time job?

I know they're looking for a better life but what exactly is it that they're hoping to get after they get here? Say 10% of them have family in the country that if they get to them, they can then be fed, clothed, and sheltered.\nOk so now the other 90% come across both illegally and in this case aggressively feeling entitled but without any resources of their own.\nAgain the question is what are they expecting to receive in the way of assistance once they're inside the U.S.?\nSection 8 hud housing has enough problems finding housing for low income housing insecure Americans. The public Healthcare system is completely maxed out as it is! U S. Department of Agriculture has instituted EBT cuts in many places and warn of future funding shortfalls!\nI'm a leftie, a definite progressive Democrat and agree with absolutely nothing as regards any GOP policies, save this!\n\nAgain, what exactly is it that these folks are expecting to be provided to them by the government of a foreign country when the U.S. Can't take care of its own people at this point?\nI'm sorry but there are previously earned just entitlements and there is the earned nothing entitlist attitude!\n\nYou will give to me because I demand it!

I can't wait to see this affect the Liberals and watch them tried to turn it around and blame it all on Trump but they're getting what they voted for

Go back! They're all gay,trans, God hating baby killers here\nAnd they fight for their right to do so because some imaginary man told, them they couldn't?? Not sure but, Go Back!!\nThe butt pirates are taking arms that they are also petitioning to get rid of because of gun violence! I guess??\nYea I know I'm just as confused\nGo Back!!\nDon't expect them to make sense in fact they ain't good at making anything but mistakes then blame the republicans lol\nPoor fools don't know they chase their own tails????

yeah man they really wanna get in to start having kids so they can live off them ??‍♂️ this been going on for years now last time i went was like 4 years ago and that shit was full of tents, im surprised they’re still living there by the border.

Enough is enough! These stories of chaos, stresses me out.\nHow on earth are we to handle all these people from Venezuela, Cuba, Central America. Haiti is a lawless place too.\nAll ask for asylum, but that excuse doesn't fit because they aren't being persecuted for religious or political reasons. Asylum laws state the asylum seeker must apply at the first democratic country they arrive at and that's not the US.\nThese are economic migrants and some fleeing drug and domestic violence. \nCanada and the US recently agreed that Canada gets to deport back to the US, any migrant that crosses into Canada from the US....great for Canada but not for us.?\nCanada has a great system with a list of all legal migrants. If you're not on the list, you get no services.\nThe countries that send their people up here are thrilled because the remittances sent back to these countries amount to billions of dollars and props up their economies....US$58.5 billion was sent to Mexico, from migrants in the US! ?

This is nothing short of an INVASION AT OUR BORDERS!! I can guarantee you that if we had responsible voting laws in this country just as simple as having an ID and proving American Citizenship, we wouldn’t be having this problem. Democrats don’t want those laws, and Democrats DONT WANT TO STOP what’s going on at the border, bcuz these are votes for them. The most utterly ridiculous myth about voter ID laws is that they’re racist due to low income families not being able to afford them. ANYONE with common sense knows that BULL$Hit, bcuz literally every state in the US has programs that’ll provide FREE IDs and help to get there. It’s time to stop blaming the government, and start blaming those that are the cause of this, the VOTERS that put the POSs in office. The Fentanyl epidemic and the blood of those that have lost their lives, is on the hands of the same VOTERS. Time to focus and rally against the ones that are the REAL reason for all of this. In fact, let the numbers tell you what changed. Look at the #s before 1/21 and now. People may lie, but the numbers never do!

Bullshit man!!! I'm sick and tired of the poor immigrants roll they play!!! The media shows the teary eyes and we're supposed to be like oh let them in!!! Screw that man!! Its human smuggling and drug cartels!! There's legal ways to get here and if some bumpkin from Korea or China can do it so can these people!!

Don't worry, they're all getting deported soon???? They should have stayed in the US. The immigration system in Canada is harsher than it is in the US

Illegal immigrants are the worst! Take care of yourselves and your own country and citizens wether you're from Mexico, to Central or South America regardless the USA doesn't owe you anything whatsoever! They're only doing it, because they know they'll get away with it knowing that Biden's administration welcomes these bastards to do it and get away with it! The Biden administration wants literally wants chaos here in the USA! The Biden administration literally wants the USA citizens to be attacked and for them to have a real war against them for their crooked Government side! They're LYING if they tell you anything else! Any real good true American President wouldn't allow such despicable trash to even so much as to getting close to a breach in the USA borders anywhere! You try to cross with the old School Presidents, you'd be in your casket for absolute certain ?????

I feel sorry for these people but at the same time they’re country’s need to get there fucking act together. This war torn 3rd world crap can go on no longer. People call the u.s the u.k etc war mongers? Well take a look at this right now. We have tried over the years to put your country’s straight but you didn’t want that help. Same here in the uk we get flooded with Africans and Middle Easterns. Change your country’s and turn them into democracy’s ! Get rid of your backwards medieval ways and maybe your country’s might be atleast better and safe places to live.

This is getting ridiculous we need to stop this but then again look who our president is so we're screwed

Remember, the news likes to say how we're such a terrible country but thousands of people risk their lives every day just to get across our border, but we're such a terrible country, this only proves how great we have it here.

They come all the way here to sit outside a home depot. Literally\nedit: they don't pay taxes because they're ILLEGALLY WORKING NOT PAYING THEIR FAIR SHARE LIKE THE REST OF US REAL AMERICANS. GET EM OUTTA HERE OR GO THROUGH THE PROCESS TO BECOME A REAL AMERICAN TAX PAYER.\nNOT A TAX PAYER=NOT AN AMERICAN.\nTHEY'RE STEALING FROM US. ANY AMERICAN WHO DOESN'T AGREE IS NO DIFFERENT THEN THESE THIEVING COCKROACHES.

So they're arrested and given a ride to another border crossing where they will be processed just like everyone else who's crossing? And the people who didn't cross at Roxham Road had to walk or pay for transport to get to the other location? Other than that, no actual difference, right? Still the same amount of people still coming in?

God bless the women in that area they're going to need all the help they can get

I feel bad, but my mama and uncle in the Philippines have been waiting for almost 30 years to come here trying to do it the legal ways. They're finally getting processed to come here and I hope everything goes well. I miss my mama so much and I can only imagine how much she misses me. I was 10, now in the late 20s ?

They're gonna be out in the streets so I don't know why they're in a rush to get in America

On a serious note? They're all Hispanic. This is from swelling from Venezuela bcuz of they're bullshit dictator. If they all wanna live in Mexico, that should be ok...mexico has a better economy than Venezuela...and Elon Musk is planning on opening a factory in Mexico as well...let them all live in Mexico, work at the giga factory and get housing in Mexico...and eventually give them green cards into the US even Americans have moved to Mexico for cheaper cost of living anyway those that live in AZ, TX, NM, Baja, CA, etc.

You guys know we pay for aid for Ukraine , billions for a war that has nothing to do with us. We accept Ukrainian migrants, they get free hosing. Meanwhile we're complaining about our neighbors that want to come to America to work

Bruh. These people are running from a war torn country. I don't get why people are so pissed about these guys doing this. Sure it's illegal. Sure it uses resources. But uhh. It's our own governments fault for not using our taxes to pay for the things we need when we're in need. I could see the outrage if this was happening with people from other countries that have no constant violence going on. But these people are scared for their lives.

My best friend started her immigration process in 2017. She was finally green lit to come to America in 2019 after marrying her long time husband over in Europe and then getting the paperwork done here in the US during that time Covid hit, and when they closed all the borders, they stopped all of the immigration process to America meaning that she was stuck in Europe away from her husband for three years. Finally last year after making her go back through the process getting all of her paperwork re-done, paying another $5000 she was able to come to the US just last month she got the start of her paperwork for her green card to work here in the US and become a full US citizen. It’s been a long process. It infuriates me that people like that who are honest, hard-working people who want to come to the US and start a life after being married, proven to have jobs and want to pay taxes and support a system. That’s willing to take them in get held up because of people like this want to come here illegally Big cause of whatever the reasons are trying to circumvent and skip over the people who are trying their hardest to do it the right way in the first place, dust dragging the system further down.
