At this point we just need to send troops to Mexico to eradicate these gangs. Thats why all these people are leaving honestly. Yall ever heard interviews of them and why theyre leaving? Alot of them are leaving because theyvhave death threat's from gangs. Id probably be doing the same shit if i was in their shoes but we already have so many homeless people here and we're in shambles ourselves. I dont understand why they just dont make a massive community for people like this or the homeless. Make it like that one city in America. I forget what its called. Its in California but there's basically no laws and you can do whatever. We took the land from Mexico so why not atleast give SOME back to people in need? Im not saying make it free. But im not saying make everyone's lives harder either. Theres definitely something the govt can do they just DONT want to

whats going on here? can we have someone explain why this is happening? why is this a thing? if we can fly in and out of here why cant we walk? are we trapped? or are the exiled? what is needed? what is missing? serious question because you never know who can fulfill it if we only knew. one thing for sure I don't think it would be like that the other way around. it would be force to get out if we ever had to evacuate.

As an American born Hispanic citizen with one immigrant Father, and two immigrant maternal grandparents, I will say what needs to be said. The government was NOT made to PROVIDE help. It was made to MANAGE the country as a WHOLE! There’s a legal way of doing things! All these immigrants you see here are clearly uneducated, and will have a negative effect on the local communities surrounding the borders. Naturalized citizens hate nothing more than an ignorant illegal immigrant.

She needs to get a life because it's not true at all. In fact, black people there are the ones more bigoted than some whites a chip on their shoulder. WS is a myth and many black people up here are doing just fine. As with any country, you have some issues, but for the most part, black people have more social acceptance in Canada than in the US. Phillip is clown going somewhere to happen....

> .What people do not realise is!! If you are inlegal YOU CAN NOT WORK WITH OUT A S.S. NUMBER. They need a social security card for working. They will steal your ID or your kids ID. maybe go welfare. IRS it will come after you. to pay their work taxes. 8 years a go. IRS want me to pay $12,000.00. Because on other State some one was using my S.S. card number. ( 2,500 miles from me ) The goverment people is letting them in the country!! But they are not given them permits to work etc.. < .

They need to stay their asses exactly where they're at. Not a single one looked like a starving refugee

Why are they not opening fire? I'm not sorry for your situation as we have problems here too. If you want to act like fools charging the gates to our border, that is an act of war and should be treated as such. One warning shot would have made them stop. If they didn't stop you shoot one person. If that doesn't make them stop, you start taking ppl out. We need to protect our borders, protect them from criminals, drug mules, and the like. That means we need to do a background check before anyone can cross that border. Not letting them in, giving them a cell phone, giving them a place to live, not allowing them to work while they sit there waiting 2 years for a court date. Its beyond ridiculous and that is what the Democrats are doing. If you are cool with that, then you are an issue and should second guess your own citizenship in this country because we the people are always first, no one else. Our government has forgotten that for quite some time, but amazingly Trump actually was bringing it back. Thats coming from someone who hated Trump, voted for Biden, and regretted my vote in March of Biden getting in office.

This is why Brandon needs to be Voted out of office in 2024. All of his Socialism policies have done nothing but hurt the Citizens of this country. If I had my way I'd send every last one of them back where they came from.

Land of the Free and a home of the Brave. A sanctuary country right? We the people? Human beings are trying to enter into a free country. What's the problem? They are not dogs and cats who need paper work like licensing or A.K.C. Registration. When are we gonna get it right? I'm a black man in America. Yet I know Love lives matter. It's about the blood of Jesus. Sure let's do things decent and in order but I'm tired of seeing our people on this planet struggle to walk on free land. Let's continue to respect our Native American brothers and Sisters too. We have a history as mankind we must not go backwards. We gotta call on Jesus to help us find the correct way to do this people. Come on. We gotta humble ourselves and pray for specific problem resolution regarding immigration, freedoms, love and respect, cultural awareness, differences urgencies, priorities and authorities. IM TEARIN UP GUYS. ? I AM GOING TO GOD IN PRAYER. MY NAME IS JOSHUA. WILL ANY ONE TOUCH AND AGREE WITH ME? PLEASE DO. WE NEED SOME ANSWERS FROM GOD. A THUMBS UP WILL MOTIVATE ME AND INCLUDE YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS WITH MINE. OUR PRAYERS, OUR PRAYERS, OUR PRAYERS. I BELIEVE HE WILL HEAR US CORPORATELY. I HAD A VISITATION FROM AN ANGEL AND I DO KNOW THAT GOD IS WITH ME WHEREVER I GO. SOME THINGS ARE ONLY SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED. I'M NOT AFRAID ANYMORE. TOUCH AND AGREE WITH ME IN JESUS NAME, THAT THE WILL OF GOD BE DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. AMEN??????

Some are trying to reunite with family, some are fleeing poverty and feel America is the best place to come up but it's those that are fleeing violence that concern me. We can't take on the world in one nation only to have some immigrants globally thumb their noses up at our traditions, rights we had to fight for, housing we need etc. The sad fact is running to America isn't the Answer. We fight the Middle East who will never change but we need to turn our attention to Mexico, the island nations and South America. It doesn't matter if people who won't change are overwhelming our nation. The violence you escape still comes here. It's getting to the point of entitlement. I've known immigrants who had to pay out-of-state fees while living in America until they could gain a visa but those from the south refute this and demand in state tuition or the same rights as those who took classes and became legal citizens the right way. So much violence from gangs and the cartel but we can't help by just opening the borders. It's time the South changed and took out the gangs and cartel for good to make a better life . Moreover, greedy leaders need to be taken out if necessary so these people can have a better future. The south and certain islands can't really say America should mind its business because these invasions are our business. When we are flooded with ethnic groups of people it becomes America's business nationwide.

We need to let them in Especially the ones that have children fuck those other countries we are not haters we need to do greater and better for all race for sake of mankind #America land of the free ??

Wat pisses me off is that they do this with our border but no1 else's is because they don't fear the reproccussions we need to drop the hammer on any1 not trying to do shit the legal way cuz all it does is shaft the ones who do

Words mean nothing people need to rise up together and take over the government. The freedom convoy was our last hope now you will pay big time no grand kids no one getting married nice work Justin welcome to end of days get ready for war .

look at them laughingS And smiling. Then they show the one woman crying. These ppl do not need to come here. They want to come here. Do it legally. This is so bad. We don’t have unlimited space and supply. And when trump gets elected he is going to deport all of these ppl.

God’s love is Not lawless and l heard some migrants in YouTube speak mandarin said they come USA because USA very easy make money, many of them are not persecuted or poor, but USA government gives them all needs as poor people. Democrats are evil and corrupt open borders like this, government should send them all back,do not take one of them then they will not come anymore.

We need more leaders like President Bukele of El Salvador and AMLO of Mexico. President Bukele incarcerated thousands of MS-13 gang members without trial. They are all in jail for life. If you have gang affiliated tattoos they come ant take you to jail for life. El Salvador is gang free and all citizens are happy. Ironically, the USA politicians are screaming human rights abuses. President AMLO stopped all catering to the high classes and wants to be more independent of the USA. This of course was met with USA indignation by politicians of the USA. We are not a very introspective country. Not that it ever makes the news but Mexico is home to 1.6 million Americans that are legally there and anther .5 to 1 million living in Mexico illegally. Remember that Banana Republics were forcefully ( With military action.) made to trade with the USA. Dole fruit being one of the main driving forces of USA interventionism. This act kept most of Central America’s governments weak and destabilized. We destabilized El Salvador all through the 70s and 80s. We destabilized Venezuela when our politics ran counter to theirs. We toppled and incarcerated President Manuel Noriega of Panama and went to war with Panama. Pablo Escobar of Panamawas killed with CIA operatives. Right or wrong our footprint is part of Latin America and the consequences of this still reverberate in todays’ immigration problems.

Where’s Donald Trump when we need him. Don’t like him but one thing he meant business on who stays and goes in this country. Peace

One thing that I got to say everybody is entitled to their own opinion I don't see why the government there don't fix what they need to fit so they country can stay at livable peaceful certain parts if not all Mexico I need are you kidding me this is a big fat no no I don't have no hatred in my heart for nobody but there is no way that they should be allowed to come over and just totally destroyed the country well we are self is working hard and busting and making sure that it is still livable like it is I sure hope Trump come back in the office

We are seeing this right now because the entire world knows that our borders are wide open and everyone is welcome. We've become the laughing stock of the planet for more than one reason... The people coming in know that they aren't going to get shot so why not try? Worst case scenario they'll just get sent home. My heart tells me that everyone deserves a chance for a better life in our country but my brain tells me we are full up folks! We can't take care of the people that were born here and should legitimately get what little help we have to give - We simply cannot have hundreds of thousands more bodies needing help!

All the ppl black Afro ppl needs to be unite with one code

America needs to take care of home FIRST!!!! House the Americans here in America you know the ones that Works for a living here And Our Veterans too...............??????

It would be great if everyone having issues with their government rushed into their halls and restructured things so no one will have the need to leave their homeland. Fix things in house.

Need to stick up a electric fence.These people make it over here they will drive down how much people make an hour over here.They will take some ones job for a can of beans.Bout 6or 7 family's live in same house.they all share expenses.I would let em know we catch you in here illegally your spending time in a prison.

We got our own problems we dnt need extra ones fix your country stop running to our mass entry thats an invasion force

I need to go there right now and pull the hottest ones out of the crowed and let them come stay with me for a small “fee” of course ?

Folks, I need to educate many for a second. When you immigrate to this country you DO NOT become a citizen when you get legal clearance. You can become a permanent resident at best which means you can live, work and do most other things here legally. You DO NOT get to vote or work in government agencies as a lawful permanent resident. To become a citizen you have to wait a minimum of 3 years, or more depending on your permanent resident status, to then apply for citizenship. You then apply for the citizenship application and if accepted the process requires you to take a test and go through a series of questions about U.S. history and government knowledge in an interview that you need to pass, before you are awarded citizenship. Through this process you are SUPPOSED to be committing yourself to the United States of America as someone who denounces your allegiance to your old country and is now pledging your allegiance to the U.S. This is now your home country and you treat it as such. You are now an AMERICAN, not a whatever from wherever that just lives in America. It should be a big deal and one to be proud of. I know people that have been here for 25 years as a permanent resident and they still have no desire to become a citizen. They have lived off of this country, raised families in this country, worked and benefitted from this country and still align with their old country and are completely amiss to what it means to become a U.S. citizen. There is a reason that only citizens are allowed to vote! Because you should have an allegiance to America and should vote accordingly and not be allowed to work in our governmental agencies for the same reason. Legal status and citizenship are NOT the same.

This is absolutely ridiculous. I’m all for immigrating to the greatest country on earth to escape from one of the worst, but do it the right way. The Biden administration needs to get their shit together. This is absurd.

It’s all part of a bigger plan! They are using Humanity to take your attention from bigger things! They also need fear and chaos in order to exist on this plant. Have you not noticed one thing after another.

Americans are going to be a minority one day in their own country. \nNow my taxes have to pay for these people to be on welfare, and have dozens of babies with free medical.\n Good luck to us Americans we're going to need it.

*I guess no one is mentioning the most absurd fact here: THESE PEOPLE ARE FROM VENEZUELA!!!?? Venezuela is 2700 MILES and TEN COUNTRIES AWAY from El Paso! That means that 100% of these people are not asylum seekers nor refugees, they are economic migrants and have ZERO right to even attempt entry in to America legal or otherwise, as they have traversed across 10 SAFE COUNTRIES where their asylum needs were met. And starting off the first seconds of your entry in to a host country by molesting its National sovereignty and disregarding its laws makes you a scum fuck who doesn’t deserve to be here. If you really needed asylum, you would go to the next safe country. The moment you are safe and choose to go further, is the moment you are no longer a refugee or asylum seeker, but a greedy selfish chooser pretending to be a beggar. The irony is, america takes in MORE LEGAL MIGRANTS THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH AS IT IS. The only people who benefit from our failing immigration system/border are the elites who get an unending supply of cheap labor to throw in to whatever thresher they need filled, and the illegal aliens themselves who just want money and don’t care whose society they have to stomp on to get it. And all it costs is basic rule of law, functional governance, a loss of fairness on the part of legal immigrants, clogged up systems for genuine refugees, and the native working class of America have to compete with foreigners for low skilled jobs and their taxes get siphoned off with every illegal migrant that enters the nation. Somehow no one in politics has the stomach to do mass deportation nor border defense, hmm I wonder why? (Looks over at elites’ thresher) If you are from Venezuela and claiming to be seeking asylum at America’s border, WHILE STANDING IN MEXICO where you could seek asylum and choose not to, then you’re a liar and a piece of shit. These hordes of fighting age men raping my country make Trump look better and better by the moment. Sincerely, a left winger whose tired of this fuckery.*

Americans need to house every single one of those asylum seekers with a tax free stipend of 250K each so they can better themselves. Wtf is wrong with America

Together we stand divided we fall. We need to come together like them people. The issue is, we get out the hoods/neighborhood and don’t look back. I’m in child protective service industry and helping rebuild the damage one family at a time.

Smh no one wants them\nTo come in but we need undocumented workers. How will our country survive without them. The strawberries your eating were pulled by undocumented worker.

This is the Judgment Hand of GOD upon our very wicked and racist nation. And it will only get worse. All I can say is that we all need to change the wo/man in the mirror and stop worshipping political figures; they can’t change this nation and no wo/man can withstand the Hand of GOD—-NO ONE!

This looks like an invasion to me and needs to be treated as one.

This needs many Trumps to get fixed. Sadly, only one Trump is available ?

Anything north of Boston, you got to be a damn fool to live there, but black folks do it to themselves. Can’t tell them nothing, so I don’t, and I don’t stick up for the ones who willingly put themselves in bad situations. Whether it’s creeping in the hood or having the insatiable need to be amongst those people knowing damn well they hate you. I’m not even going to ask why because I don’t care honestly. Do you and be held accountable for your own actions??‍♂️

we need a Joseph where ever we live to supply our every need and to give counseling on how to survive in a hostile environment while seeing the global world with one lens for black Africans who are being opposed by the total non-African people of this world that are working hard to maintain our division[disunity] economically, socially, politically, religiously, etc to their benefit. we need all the technologies, types of equipment, and stored houses with free access globally through lands, seas, and air to help our people without hindrances.b1

This reminds us we need to fight for our country or we will be them one day ??????

I live in Canutillo, Texas, Suburb of El Paso. Migrants cross illegally on a daily basis. Are we going to have enough food and shelter for all of these people. Probably not! This is unfair for our homeless population. What about our veterans that have actually fought to defend this country? If we can't take care of our own problems, how can we take care of another countries problems. Who is vetting these people. No one. Canada only allows people who have a college degree. Should we do the same? Too many questions and no one can answer them. \n\nWe need a stronger Title 42

Those entitled little peasants need to get in the back of the line just like the ones who want to get here legally

Only need to drop one and the rest will think again......

Need more jobs, lesser rent/lower inflation/removal of businesses not following labor laws/proper housing/homeless housing and job directories. I dont think keeping out immigrants will really improve anything, America has always been a melting pot of sorts and was ultimately built by immigrants and still relies on their affordability of labor cost. Americans are racist and afraid that theyll be knocked off the ladder by someone that will probably outwork them, then unable to afford homing, and unable to find a job themselves. They dont want to be in Mexicos shoes, Venezuela specifically, as shown here. US population has been around 54% working; while 76% from Mexico. A wall wasnt going to fix the situation, never was -- it was a bit silly dont you think? There shouldve been more put into expanding border patrol, they obviously handle it better. And claiming aslyum has backfired: theyre over-full, lack funding, and no one can remove them because it has become a neccesarity now.\nI dont think they should be denied a potentially better way of life but this wasnt as much an option as they had hoped it be.

There country is fucked man there are people that need help for real and we here in the us worrying about LGBT rights more than people dying shit is crazy thay need to fight back and take the C gang out some of them might even get killed on the walk back the cartel kills anything they don't like and this is one of them thing I bet

Where's that minigun when you need one?

A simple observation : why keep them out? Think on this one for a minute.\nThe elderly, that came from families consisting of 10 to 15 brothers & sisters, will soon all be gone.\nSo, there will be housing, jobs etc etc etc. Because they had 10 siblings. How many do you have? 2 or 3? See the diff?\nAren't we going to need these people later on?!? It's not only bums and rascals. Also doctors, nurses, etc etc.

Way to go Joe! You and Kamala are doing such a wonderful job, literally every time you change one of Trumps great accomplishments it ends up like this, you people don't have a clue on how to run a country.we need Trump back to straighten out all your f###kups

Mexico and U.S. need to build a co'operated receiving facility in the desert before the border crossing. There has never been a plan and the forefathers dropped the ball on this one

We need to step it up. Unmanned drones, land mines. American border security should be synonymous to fot knox. To my knowledge not many people have died trying to get in there illegally, because no one is stupid enough to try

Honestly, at this point, we need to make an example and not a pretty one.
