I’m Mexican and this infuriates me. I had to go through the process legally

I’m moving to Mexico… gonna wave my American ?? and celebrate the 4th of July. I’ll also refuse to speak Spanish. Just like they do here in America.

I’m here to tell you if us Americans needed to seek refuge in another country not one would welcome us. Us taking in that many illegals and immagrants is absolutely crazy and nobody else would do it if they cared about their own country

We have the same problem not with mexicans, but we have so many people that live on the streets any are English, I wish the Government would get their shit together, there are so many large homes that are empty and shops, I'm sure if they gave homeless paint and materials to fix the properties that they would be happy to make properties liveable, it's not just 10 or 20 i have seen 48 in the past month and must be in every area, I feel so sorry for these people they just want a better life, there's 10000s that come into our country illegally, probably because they tried many times to come here but refused,I wish I had the answer, I also wish I could post what I know to be true, but I can't,?

I'm surprised cnn doesn't drive them across the boarder and to dss office loosers

Go home and fix your own homeland!!! We are trying to fix ours and it's a mess, but I'm not trying to flee to Mexico/Canada/Venezuela/fill in the blank...

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

Keep them coming! Personally, I think this is great, Venezuela is a paradise. I'm looking into real estate right now.?

I'm a Hispanic born and raised in Texas, but I still think that we need stronger immigration laws with more deportation.

I'm just wondering if this happens in couturiers like China, Russia, Iran, how would they respond?...mmm...

I'm sure they'll all be great American citizens..thanks Biden

We are all GODS CHILDREN. We OWN NOTHING. I'm sure this was there land FIRST.

We have to take care of our own first or homeless veterans are on the street we can barely have our own homes and stuff because high taxes and they come over and they get free phones free money and free homes the hell with it I'm sorry go back to your country United States needs to take care of its own take care of the veterans first piss on the rest I'm sorry

As an Australian, I'm happy that people are aware of our most Australian qualities

No more rats!.I'm moving to south America

I hate to see this but I’m sorry. extreme circumstances call for extreme measures. Safeties off.

Wow CNN actually admitting fault for this pathetic Joe biden administration? I'm impressed. May bethe only honest news report ever

It's called civil rights, which leads to disputes, and then war. Regardless where you are, fight for your beliefs, your kids, make those your rights. Don't steal rights from others...\n\nI'm seeing people wearing better clothing than I trying to force their way here. Why? They seem to be doing well enough... remember, it's always greener on the other side.

My husband lost his job of 20 years from Covid! We have 4 kids. Literally had to start life over. We cannot afford anything right now. I’m living in my family’s basement! The cost of living does not match the pay! We are currently trying to open a business! Please pray for my family. We are Americans! We are offered nothing. Everything just keeps rising!

I'm sorry, but I would use a 30 cal to discourage this!

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!

Well I have heard rumors that the Citizens of Mexico have had enough of the cartels. Now this is coming from a source I’m not to trustworthy but it’s safe to know than not knowing. So I have heard that the people have been warned that starting today there where going to be groups a so called vigilantes going round warning store owners or anyone who owns business to close down their business at a curfew date. For if the see them open they will get lifted (kidnapped) and killed. Supposedly that the cartels want to start charging the elderly for their monthly pension funds (their way of social security benefits) also they want to start charging a fee for almost everything to the people. So maybe that’s why they are trying to escape the war that’s bout to happens with the mass vigilantes and the cartels they a war bout to start.

In literally any other country they would be gunning these people down. I'm not saying that what should happen, but they need to do something to fix this.

This is just outrageous! We cannot take care of all these people! Come here legally and fund your own way and earn your own money or do not come here at all! I’m sick of all these people coming here and expecting to be taken care of!

Why aren't people honest and just say they left because they wanted to make more money? People like you post videos trashing Canada and yet somehow benefit from Canada. Very self-serving videos. I'm not sure what your living situation is, but it probably doesn't apply to most of your viewers. People don't have two-bedroom apartments in Vancouver, and not being able to host is just a lame excuse. Anyone with more than two brain cells can see beyond your shallow arguments. If you have to trash things to make money, it smells fishy. Grow up, dude?

I’m so glad idiots are leaving this country into Canada, now we just need to find out how to fix our borders

And when i say the wall need to be built popple look at me like I'm racist like i am immigrant i was poor born in a port in God grace we manage to get our visa and passport, i am not even joking qhw. I'm saying one day we will only eat rice i know where I come from, war, dangerous street at night, just crazy stuff be happening like this is not right it doesn't matter how u look at it American as an immigrant yes there are certain i don't like about the country but what the hell is this.

I'm Mexican-American full-blooded all these people ever do is play politics were there even racist towards mexican-americans that's why there's pisa and that's why there's homies big difference in between keep those people out of the United States they destroy the economy they destroy everything for poor and low class people

bhai m ny sara same to same wesy e kia but end py wo pasay mang rhy han 10$ ye free to na hua na.

I'm willing to bet alot of weapons & drugs made it across those borders.

There’s a better way. 30% of those ppl maybe had a opportunity in the US and violated it’s terms and got went back or ran back smh I’m Mexican born in the US and this makes me mad. Idk how bad you have you ain’t the only in other countries . We need to help our issues in the US before we can help immigrants.

There’s gonna come a time when this has to be dealt with with severe force and you all know what I’m talking about

Good! Keep them the fuck out! Some of them are laughing like it’s funny! They are saying, “Ohhhh yeaaaa I’m about to get free shot off these dumb americanos!”

As someone who is jumping through lots of hoops, for the 2nd year now, to get to Canada through Express Entry, I'm surprised people get to just waltz in like this.

I'm comming too.

Hi Peace! Good day dear. Watched you from Tochi's channel. I'm interested in the teaching assistant job you talked about. Pls can you share the link. Thank you ❤. I have already subscribed❤

Honestly- it’s democrats. Watch any senate hearing addressing this and it’s infuriating. And no. I’m not a Republican. It makes me sick

It's such b******* that our country doesn't put a stop to this b*******. Americans are having a hard enough time as it is with housing, rent, food, we are just getting COVID under control - These other countries don't vaccinate. Folks can't read English, they want to drive, they don't get insurance - sorry I'm against it I think the border wall needs to go up and stay up, increase border security -They don't respect our laws.

Bro like chilllllll. I have a full time job I'm 33 years old and I can't find anywhere to live either .....

Mexican government failed the people that’s all I’m saying

You know what pisses me off? I'm 60 yo and all my life this has been an issue. 60 years! You wanna know why? Because if they fix it they have NO PLATFORM to get people riled up with promises of doing something about it...and then don't. And we keep voting for the promise.

We have such a porous border in Canada. Problem is Justin Trudeau and his pack of corrupt Liberals want more and more “refuges” not skilled....with an education coming into Canada. You see....people who vote Liberal are morons...the “free stuff” they get from the Liberals are paid for with more and more Liberal taxes. Liberal voters think Justin dips into a trust fund or something...yes Liberal voters are really that stupid....they don’t realize more Liberals mean more wasteful taxes. So Justin wants refugees...who he can put on welfare for their lives, become citizens, AND bring in dozens of their relatives to begin the process again....why because they vote Liberal in perpetuity. We are never going to break this cycle. Where is the line to emigrated to the United States.....oh, I’m educated with a masters degree. Not valued in Canada, because I was born here, and I’m white....I feel so ashamed!

Cnn talking about the border ? I'm surprised lol

Yeah we barely got enough s*** here for ourselves we don't need a bunch of people coming here and take it at 2 we don't need competition for a resources I'm sorry but bad things are going around everywhere

During the 1930's media in various countries made immigrants and asylum seekers out to be this horrible thing and demonised them. This came after a huge recession in 1923, the Wall Street crash, and the subsequent dramatic rise of far right parties in various countries, specifically Italy, then Germany and Spain. \nFast-forward to modern times. 2008 saw another global recession. Once again politics swung massively to the right with countries like Italy (once again), Hungary, Austria, Poland and Sweden, voting in right wing governments, France ending in a run off that narrowly defeated the far right, Belgium and Spain looking likely to be heading into heavily right wing governments at the next elections, whilst the US and UK governments both saw their politics swinging far further in that direction, especially the UK right now whilst led by an unelected leader who is demonising people in ways that would make Trump look soft. One of themajor rallying calls: immigration. The way media report on this becomes increasingly demeaning and hateful. During the 1930's much of the European media and even as far as the UK was ramping up the scorn against the ever increasing influx of Jewish immigrants coming from Germany. Even into 1944 there was a vast amount of demonisation of them seeking asylum, despite the knowledge by this point that there were horrific conditions in camps where extermination was becoming ever more apparent. The Nazi German government in 1936 passed laws that enabled them to revoke citizenship and stripped away laws on human rights. It would be great to say that these poor souls who were being demonised in their own country were accepted into nations who could see what was going on and who wanted to help, but that just wasn't the way it went. Media played out as it is now, leading to rejection and a greater number of deaths as a result of this. The way the UK government is currently working, it actually sounds like the maxi government of the mid 30's during the time of the Nürnberg laws. \n \nThe world feels far smaller now with double the amount of people and with things like social media playing a huge role in the lives of many. The ease of access to people around the world has made issues seem to stretch to far more countries now, whereas back then it was a time of empires. I get that there will be many here who support Trump, many who support Biden, there will be Brit's who support Sunak and the rather vicious words of Suella Braverman, whilst others will be more on the side of Starmer (I'm well aware of all the other parties but they don't stand to gain as much). There will be French people backing Macron, whilst others back Le Pen. We could go through each country all the way to the battle between Fujimori and Castillo in Perú, and the stories are much the same, but how will history judge us when people look back to this time? Will it be another occasion where we demonised those trying to escape the horror of the place they had the bad luck to be born in whilst we were luckier? \n\nI know there is hardship everywhere. I'm struggling more than most and I know I can't keep living this way. However, I don't want to be a part of history people look back at and say ‘if only they did something to help prevent this.’. I would rather be a part of history people look back upon and say; ‘that was a boring time period where nothing important happened’. It's already too late for that. Instead I try to remember that, though I was born into a family who never really wanted me, I was lucky enough to be born into a country that could support me during the hardest times. When you look at immigrants, remember that every one of us has immigrants in our family tree somewhere.

Don't speak english have no education likely have criminal past (and statistically per capita commit twice as much crime as a citizen including human trafficking, drug trafficking, rape and murder) also poor I'm sure they'll be able to help our growing poor population that's grown so large we actually do a census for lol

I’m a foreigner and I seeing this. Reminds me of trump getting bashed for putting up the wall

I'm sorry but do not let them in they have their own country there's not enought in American for Americans and foreigners......America is not the way make the best of your own lands

I’m surprised CNN is even showing this! I though everything was under control

Have fun lol, I'm ethnically hungarian and was born here and I've been homeless most of my adult life. Why support a system that openly hates me? These people don't realize they're walking into a house of cards. ?
