I agree with slowing down immigration. We didn't prepare for it or build the infrastructure for it. But we don't all need to be aholes about it. Looking at you, comment section. Agree with the policy, but we don't need to be American.

Trump won the election with less than half of the popular vote. Many Americans didn't vote at all. Many of us are sorry for Trump. Very sorry to the rest of the world too.

Lmfao look all those so called black and Haitian migrants. She didn’t mean to say Venezuelans. As a black American I’m shook at how fast whites gave up benefits and land.

Jesus Christ and his parents was immigrants when God told them to flee to Egypt because King Herod was gonna kill Jesus. Good thing Egypt didn't deny Joseph & Mary and Jesus to not come into their country. Today immigrants are asking other immigrants to leave. Will the real owners, Native American tell the land stealing theives that God own the earth and you immigrants have not been paying your tithes and offering. God created the Heaven and Earth. And man been given a less than a 120 years lease and you have polluted the land etc. Repeat after me God is the owner of Heaven and Earth.

Hey buddy, I feel like you get a lot of grief from Canadians about negative issues with Americans so I thought you might like this: Many years ago my friend and I drove into Rochester NY from Lake Erie Ontario. We stopped at a Starbucks and when it came time to pay the batista looked at my pink money like it was monopoly money. Since they didn't accept Canadian currency, they gave us our coffees for free. Pretty decent American politeness if you ask me.

Typical American garbage... He didn't answer the question about the drastic difference between Northern and Southern Border. Essentially what they want IS FOR Canada TO PAY a portion of the cost FOR THEIR BORDER ISSUES. 51st State my ass... He keeps mentioning this. It's our Natural Resources, that's essentially what he's referring to. Acquire them cheap, and waaaay below market price.

I lived in Austria n Germany for long, but I never felt or heard foreigner! They treated me equal to themselves. Mind you I had dark hair n eyes, n olive skin color. They didn't find cultural differences in my behavior or food. Actually, I was respected n valied even more than average. They didn't know where I was from, unless they asked. But my look made them guess I was Spanish, South American, or Iranian which they liked. But they were really judgemental towards Turks, Yugoslavs, n others.\nI'm talking abt 1970s to 1990s. How is it now, I don't know.

Huh?????? MEXICAN AMERICAN???? Mam your people didn't build this country either.

Tyler, i have seen many of your videos and i apprsciate them very much. It s original but most of it, it s your opened mind that makes me sometimes smile, some other times think with my canadian mind. I have many cousins many places in the U.S. ( notice i didn t say america lol) all very nice. You are THE average american man. Like u a lot.

When you brought the African men women in chains as slaves , you didn't ask for their documents.. Lots of Black Americans voted for Trump because of that.

See if these people stop thinking they were white in the first place. They could have fought with the African Americans and got their right. S they wouldn't be happening to do this now. But no, they didn't want to do it. They wanted to think they were white better than blacks better than Africans from Africa better than anybody else there they are. This is what happens when you don't stay true to who you are. God made you who you are and when you turn your back on who you are, you're turning it back on God.??❤

O_o Well this is a weird situation. I didn't expect a Mexican American immigrant to support Trump. She explained that she was technically legal. However I really doubt this. Trump is extremely racist. He would still deport this woman anyway. Maybe it is not just a racism thing. Trump is a felon. Felons are the last people that would consider the law. It is nice that this woman went the extra mile to be legit, but I think she is still shooting herself in the foot.

Trump didn't make mistake on imposing high tariff on some countries because Americans are big consumers of those countries products in high quantity and they too knows that Trump is right and the fact is they prefer US as their main costumer.

Thank you for summarizing these key changes! Many problems are actually the Canadian immigration system not learning from the mistakes of the US system and now it’s suffering the same consequences. If Canada cuts down on those selected immigrations but still takes in refugees, it’s only going to make anti-immigrant sentiment worse. Selected immigrants are allowed into Canada to help alleviate Canadian issues…or at least people who come through Express Entry are less likely to become a burden. On the other hand, refugees, given their unfortunate circumstances, really need to rely on a lot of social services and resources to help them resettle. The US has eliminated pretty much all non-humanitarian immigration that’s why immigrants are so demonized there. Americans only feel the drags of refugees and asylum seekers (even though ethically we need to protect them) and there is no selected immigration to balance that out. Yet this round of Canadian policy change is heading exactly that direction.\n\nIt used to be international students in Canada are not paying a lot more tuition than Canadian students. But Canadian universities saw how much money universities in the US are making so they asked the federal government to change the policy to enable them to charge international students several times the regular tuition (whereas in countries like France, international students actually pay less than citizens). So now Canadian universities rely too much on international students to operate and it becomes an exploitative relationship even before students step foot on the campus. The new PGWP eligibility is awful because students can make contributions in every field. It might (and that's a big if) address the pressing problems, but it won't help Canada grow.\n\nI thought the new language requirement was interesting. Some Canadians who immigrated decades ago when the bar was really low still speak English poorly and now they are saying people can’t come to Canada because their language skills are not sufficient. Another point about language is if you apply through Express Entry now, even if you scored the highest language score, given how competitive the pool is, you still won’t get selected. So it’s a given that you need to be fluent in one of the languages at least to get an invitation. Express Entry also selects only the top people, I saw the head of The Institute for Canadian Citizenship in interviews talking about those top-tier people only expect the best treatment/lifestyle when they come to Canada. That's why many of them leave after seeing these Canadian problems play out. But I believe a good Canadian life is not about living in a high rise in Vancouver and Toronto, driving an expensive car, or buying luxury items...it's about the communities, nature and middle-class comfort. So the system is giving PRs to the wrong kind of people (just like mismatched people when hiring that don't align with company values).\n\nThis brings me to the last frustrating issue. There were so many people who attended “fake” universities and bought “fake” jobs to earn points to get an Express Entry invitation. And it's clear that the government wasn't proactively catching these abuses. They are taking up spots from those who try to earn the points fair and square. If I understand correctly, Canada doesn’t send these people away if they are found out (since some of them were scammed). So they still take up immigration quotas.\n\nI have wanted to move to Canada for a long time. I have visited Canada many times, hiking trails through the coastline and fjords, climbing mountains and glaciers. I lived in Montreal for two months to improve my French and I was told by my homestay family that I was the first student they had who didn’t complain about the cold (I wish the winter never ends so I can skate or xc ski in the parks year-round). I have probably seen more Canada than many Canadians and I love every bit of it. But the opportunity for me to even get a shot to move there is pretty much nonexistent now. If only there was a way for the system to allow people who really care about Canada to get a shot at being part of this beautiful country.\n\nThank you for making these videos.

The reality is, the U.S. takes 50% of ALL THE WORLD’S immigrants, LEGALLY! That’s over 1 million per year! And honestly, we cannot afford it anymore.\n\nBut Biden, Harris, CNN and the rest of the mainstream media have promoted and HELPED 20 million illegal aliens entering the U.S. without proper vetting and CLEARLY AGAINST American law!\n\nNow CNN is supporting illegal immigration AGAIN!\n\nStop CNN! What a woke, lost channel. Notice I didn’t call than a news station. They’re not. Just massively biased op-eds.

If American's didn't consume so much ilegal drugs they wouldn't be a world drug trafficking problem

That's a Lie. A 2 year old girl didn't travel alone to the border. The Corrupt, Biased ,Liberal, Globalist news media wants America to fill shamed for not letting her enter our country Illegally where American Tax payers will have to support her. Don't let her in!!

Biden didn't reverse tariffs since American companies raised prices, to match new higher prices of Chinese products. That was beginning of inflation.

They're eating the cats and dogs totally worked perfectly to the most highly uneducated Pro Dictators Pro White Supremacists Xenophobic RABID racist Misogynistic \nself-loathing \nself-centered\nGreedy Americans.\nMexico paying for the Racist Wall 2016 Campaign Rhetoric didn't work.

Mexico didn't take American jobs, American companies wanted cheaper labor and cheaper taxes and built their factories in Mexico. Mexico didn't build their factories in the US. They have it ass backwards!

Canada like many countries who came out fairly unscathed from COVID are facing the same dilemma, they didn't get the massive economical bounce back and the momentum that went with it like many countries who were devastated by COVID. If you look at the data between Canadian household income compared to the US, excluding the top ten percent since the US has much more income inequality than Canada, you will see that most Canadian are doing much better than their American neighbours. And on top of that, we have safer streets, healthcare, longer lifespan and better public education system. What we are missing is more leadership structuring our economy rather than completely being depended on the free market. They are managing the economy rather than facilitating more growth, none of the Canadian political parties seems to truly be engaged with that. We are not the US, we do not have the population to grow a service economy like they do, which has a compounding effect on their economy. We need a more focused approach to managing our resources, including human resource, which requires some planning on the economic side.

Two major factors that they didn't mention about the large increase in support for mass deportation are Desantis and Abbot busing a bunch of migrants to major cities, and the recent reports of Tren de Aragua taking over apartment complexes using guns that (I think) Americans are banned from owning.

To all those supporting the cracking down on these ‘illegals’ there’s something I need to know. Tell me, if they folks had an option to immigrate legally, would they? Do you think it’s some kind of malicious effort to come here against the law, or are they coming here out of desperation? Many of these people come from places like Haiti, Colombia, or Guatemala. Places that the CIA and American tax dollars destroyed. Illegal immigration wouldn’t be a problem if we didn’t make the situations of many of our southern neighbors unlivable.\n\nI’m a Floridian white dude who was comparatively born with the silver spoon in my mouth, I understand America is at a point economically where the last thing we need is to be spending money on non citizens, sending billions in foreign aid abroad or on undocumented immigrants. But I also think we need to take some level of accountability for why this is even an issue. I speak Spanish as a second language, and ever since I got to communicate with many of these ‘illegals’ and got to hear from an older Guatemalan gentlemen of his time living through the American backed “Silent Holocaust” my opinion has change completely.

Us conservative's DO consider her American. This IS her country. And no- LEGAL immigrants are NOT going to be deported. They feel the same way about legal immigrants as they do illegal ones, yet both Trump and JD's wife's are legal immigrants? Lol. This comment section is laughable. Good for this lady for standing up for what is right regardless of who gets mad at her for it. She didn't turn her back on them; they stopped talking to her because she supports Trump and believes in following the law. Tgat's whats pathetic. ?‍♀️

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..

One minute Trump is disrespecting My people calling them out of their name but yet want their vote and she said that Trump needs to take her country back is she serious she don't have a CLUE IN WHAT TRUMP IS GETTING READY TO DO TO THE BLACK HISPANCIS AND NATIVE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND WE REPRESENT THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL WE ARE THE TRUE ISRAELITES FROM THE TRIBE OF JUDAH. I PRAY THE MOST HIGH WILL OPEN HER EYES AND SHE SEE'S THE TRUTH BECAUSE THIS UNITED STATES HAVE BEEN BUILT OF OF LIES AND DECEPTIONS AND THIEVERY BUT YET IN STILL THEY HAD THE NERVES TO SAY THE BLACK HISPANCIS AND THE NATIVE AMERICAN ARE LAZY WE NEVER BEEN LAZY WE WORKED COMING OUT THE WOMB IT THE WHITE MAN THAT DIDN'T WORK BUT STOLEN EVERYTHING HE COULD GET HIS HANDS ON AND CLAIMED IT WAS HIS MY PEOPLE NEVER BEEN LAZY LIKE THE WHITE MAN AND I WILL STAND 10 TOES DOWN ON THAT WE ARE THE ONE THAT INVENTED THINGS AND THEY TOOK THE CREDIT FOR IT AND STOLEN IT BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY THEY THINK EVERYTHING HOLD A PRICE TAG BUT GETTING INTO HEAVEN IS NOT ONE THREY ARE NOT WELCOME INTO THE KINGDOM BUT EXCEPT COMING IN AS SLAVES THE LOWEST OF THE LOW

In 1955, thousands of disoriented people roamed the city’s streets as the sun bore down on them. They had just been dumped there by American immigration officials—snatched from their lives and jobs in the United States, and thrown into a city where they didn’t know anyone. Knowing as Operation Wetback

I sadly didn't realize that the fundamental thinking of the American people has drastically changed

Donald Trump although I didn’t vote for you and I honestly do not agree with everything you say and stand for, I strongly stand and support what you have planned to do for Illegal Immigration. This massive deportation plan you have set out is a great goal you have because all these illegal immigrants who are coming from all over the world and are bringing their problems to the USA ?? and are committing crimes here and are having their kids here which is a big safety threat for our fellow Americans, this massive deportation plan is exactly what we need for our country and I support you 100% on this!

Doing it the right way means needing a beneficiary or money. You don’t get a green card for a job. You need to be married or have money and buy one. It’s super expensive. Instead of kicking them out they should be given work or student visas until they earn their place here. But kicking them out helps no one really. This lady is super privileged. She probably came here with someone who acted as the beneficiary. Now she thinks it’s her country. She didn’t even grow up her. It’s not her country. She’s an immigrant. She’s Mexican American. She’s Mexican. We live in wild times.

15 million is a generous estimate. Probably mich higher tbh. Americans really are blind to whats really going on. Thousands per day. There's an app, illegal app I might add, that the illegals were using that was set up by the crooked Biden Administration and was used for coning into America. The illegals were shipped into all the swing states. Why? Because they were expected to vote Democrat. What happens when swing states now potentially have hundreds of thousands of new Democrat voters? They turn that swing state into a democratic state, solidifying their inevitable win. So, what happened, why didn't they win you ask? Because they didn't expect the massive turnout at the voting machines. They didnt count on the amount of democrat voters in 2020 to open their eyes and switch to republican because it's obvious the country was turning into absolute garbage. People should be thanking their Almighty God that Kamala didnt win. Trust me when I say that. There would never have been another real election if they had 4 more years. It would've overwhelmingly been a one party nation from now on. We would only be voting for WHICH democrat we wanted to be the puppet of the mega rich: Bill Gates, etc.... People need to open their eyes and stop believing EVERYTHING they see on the news. Dont you know by now that the news only echoes what the democrats want them to say. Just like Biden and Kamala. They only read the teleprompters, pay attention. Kamala stumbled on repeat mode for several minutes each time there's an error on her teleprompter. WAKE UP AMERICA. THIS AINT SOME CONSPIRACY THEORY. ITS LITERALLY HAPPENING RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES!!

Secure the border? Yes. Prioritize deporting those who have committed crimes? Yes. But remember that the American economy relies heavily on foreign labour so the process of dealing with illegal immigrants needs to include dramatically increasing the number of immigration officials to get the productive, employed illegals some kind of legal status. The import tariffs are going to cause inflation. Taking away productive workers will further inflate prices.\n\nThen, of course, there’s the illegal immigrants who are entrepreneurs like Elon Musk. Washington Post reports, and Elon’s brother confirmed, that they entered the US illegally although they do now have legal status in the US. Elon had a student visa to do graduate studies at Stanford but he never signed up for a single course. Instead he created a startup. So he didn’t comply with his student visa and he was working illegally. Quite the hypocrite. Should Elon Musk be deported for his illegal entry back in the 1990s? There’s no evidence he committed any other crimes so perhaps not. But if not, then just treat all the illegals with the same consideration.

Trump is a big fat bag of flatulence. \nHe's an expert at talking out his ass, and his supporters are dumb enough to believe him. \nBut we're here with a clown representing America because people didn't vote. \nIn 2020, Trump got 74,223,975 votes.\nBiden got 81,283,501.\n7+ million more than Trump. \nIn 2024, Trump got 73,494,503 votes, 729,472 less than he got 4 years ago.\nIn 2024, Harris got 69,174,894 votes, 4,289,607 less than Trump, and 12,108,605 less than Biden got 4 years ago. \nAmerican voters are why we're stuck with a narcissistic sociopathic liar and sex offender for president. \n12 million Americans, to be specific, who chose not to vote.\nTrump is a scam artist. \nHow many billions will Trump, and his family of grifters, steal from America? \nHow many asinine statements will Trump make? \nAnd how many rounds of golf is the flatulence king play on our dime? \nLast time it cost Americans $145 million. \nDo you think fatty ? can break his record? \nI bet he'll try.

In 2017 -18 trump had the house and senate didn't pass an immigration law and won't this time because it's been their piss n moan issue every election And the wall he had 4 years and added the amazing 52 miles of new wall What American is going to bend over and pick fruit and veggies for minimum wage like the imagrants do now

the Americans peoples are not mad at this deport my be the Americans homeless and struggling can maybe get a chance.the Americans peoples didn't like theses illegals migrants came to the united state.

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.

These Racist Congressmen, are so ignorant about the Majority Reason, why people come to this country. The Majority come because, they want a better life for themselves, and their family. They don't leave their Native Country because they want to take a Vacation to the U.S. They have every Right, to Seek A Better Future. This Country is for Every Human Being! People from All Walks Of Life, are here to STAY! Everyone has come to USA, from around the World! The Only Native Americans, were the Indians, that were here, before Christopher Columbus arrived! Did they tell Cristopher Columbus, go back to Italy, you are not Welcome Here? No Ignorant People, they ateTHANKSGIVING TOGETHER! It seems, that many people didn't learned History in School. They just went to fool around, and stay dumb! It's Ashamed!

The Caucasians didn't check in with the native Americans why should the Mexicans check in with the Caucasians

There is nothing illegal about a precious 5 year old child brought to and raised in this beautiful country. Deporting kids who’ve grown up here, who know nothing but America, just because their parents didn’t file the right paperwork? Really? \nI bet over 80% of Americans are descendent of ancestors who didn’t have to file any paperwork to get to these shores. \nAmericans confusing the absolutely legitimate fight against crime, cartels, and violence with an absolutely unnecessary fight against immigration is just painful to watch.

who will clean the toilets and change the rooms in the high priced hotel rooms for 5$ hour. americans would have to live homeless on the streets on those wages and we know how republicans hate that. this will have a devastating effect on large business and food distribution chains. they were hiring illegals because they could ignore the laws regarding employees rights in working conditions and overtime. not just underpaying them but having them work under illegal conditions some using the field as their bathrooms. this will end badly and they will blame the other party for the fall out as usual. part of the minimum wage increase act was due to the fact the wages didn't match the cost of living. people couldn't afford to pay rent so they live in their car or on the streets and steal if necessary to make ends meet. these were americans doing this not illigals. people in the red states that voted for this will be the first to get burned as usual. it was the democratic party that offered the safety net for those red states.

Mexican worry trump Claudia said didn't cry we have black Rock visit 260 CEO Rich north Americans slim and inter ocean shipping connection half world need one million worker projects USA wee haw show 1980 donkeys red hair

So American didn't commit crime?

I didn’t even vote for a republican, but saying illegal immigrants should stay in the country because they work for pennies is just ridiculous. Maybe those rich business owners should be paying Americans a fair living wage.. obviously.

Trump is taken a aways our right it unfair they now remove married paper wow just wow I am Latino American I born here too good thing I didn’t vote for him he not my president

That's rich coming from Marco Rubio a first generation American, whose parents were undocumented Cuban migrants, who also didn't have any type of \nimmigration/citizenship status when he was born here in the states.

Stupid people calling americans stupid for voting for the president they believe, this is utterly disgusting, Americans didn’t vote against themselves. The majority of the Americans voted against the stupid policies, Biden and Kamala Harris forced them to obey, they voted against the stupid war between Russia and Ukraine, that these poor people have to pay from their tax money they voted against all those illegal migrants who came to this beautiful country illegally and was benefiting from Americans tax money, this is not a warning. This should be called a celebration.

It was announced today on the news that the Trump initiative to deport all illegal immigrants will cost up to $1 trillion dollars. That’s a lot of moolah. Which will come out of our taxes. And the tariffs that he went on and on about. Companies aren’t giving out bonuses to workers for end of year. Because they have to save money now because Trump will impose tariffs on incoming goods. The workers didn’t understand they assumed the cost would be paid by importers. In reality, it will trickled down to American consumers who have to pay for goods. Economists have been saying during the election this is a bad idea.Trump tried to do it the last time he was in office and it didn’t work. So people be aware you think you can’t afford things now wait you won’t be able to afford anything. PS the government has nothing to do with price gouging for food and they don’t set the price for gasoline or electricity, etc. ????

Mexico #1 form of legal GDP is the money that legal and illegal immigrants send back to Mexico that money never returns to the USA economy. They also affect supply and demand. So things cost more because there is a higer demand with less supplies and thats simply based on population. I voted Blue , but things like this is why Democrats lose the election. They need to be honest about the long term affects of illegal immigration. And to bring up the cost as if we aren't sending hundreds of billions of aid and resources to other countries that frankly we shouldn't be doing at the rate that we are anymore because the world has benn mooching from Americans and their citizens good will and charity for too long. So this can be paid for without adding any debt. Trump is an idiot but he and Republicans are right on these issues. Democrats seen to treat this issue with kid gloves. The center Democrats like Obama have to return. He deported more immigrants than any president in history, quietly. He didn't start a war or send troops but he dropped more bombs than you can imagine...Quietly. Democrats should have learned a valuable lesson. The world isn't just rainbows and flowers so we cant treat every issue that way

As a trump supporter and I understand laws, am white Italian male from New York we need enforcement the laws deport illegals, great but he got a point, a live it by day mixed status families when I say mixed means your wife or husband are us.citizens and have American kids,children with husband or wife undocumented we should allow them to stay its around 500k people on this situation then the rest just deport them, my view is mixed status families is husband or wife are Americans born and have kids here they need to stay other mixed families like husband and wife are illegal and have kids they aren’t mixed status families because the father and mother didn’t born here no claim to stay here wait your kids be 18 them they apply for you to come back or the government consider them to stay here them they apply for numbers go to 5 million people and the rest send them home this is my 2 cents because in Europe if you are married to a European citizen you allowed to stay laws are different from country to country’s also trump mothers she was a illegal immigrate till she married trump fathers that’s fact google it ?

So, Republican businesses owners are ready to have their cheap labor ripped from them..and then expect Americans to take low wages again? Lol didn't think this one through, did ya???
