Phil, you had to search far and wide for this one, didn't you, we call it cherry picking sort of incidents. I would say that pure racism exists in 5% of the population, despite your efforts to create an additional 20 or 30% of racists through your propaganda fiction. It may work because white folks will only tolerate you lying on them for so long before they become the monsters that you created.

Everyone deserves a better life. As long as their not criminals. Their trying to get over the border for a reason

Just got word my wife's sister finally approved to emigrate here from Philippines (AFTER A 4 YEAR LONG ASS WAIT, HELLA FEES, REQUIRED IMMUNIZATIONS, & LANGUAGE TEST)....look at these PIGS here... Cheating, cutting the line, not paying a damn thing.... Bullchit

Yes the Democrats are stopping Venezuelans and Cubans..not because they want to stop the crisis at the border....because these poor people are typically conservative and if given the right they would vote against communism/ socialism...Democrats only want migrants who will vote blue!!!\nThis has been the tactic from day 1....they dont care about Americans as long as they can hold onto power the country could burn.

US should just take over and make Mexico another 4 states. Then they won’t have to live in despair so long

Such a slap in the face to homeless people who were born, worked in, and lived in America all their life. Where is their “free ticket” to housing and resources? America makes it hard for their own; especially Blacks, to survive. Always some kind of impossible agreement they want you to agree with to obtain help. As a Black American, homeless and disabled; worked low wage jobs here in America over 30 years; was blocked from receiving my full lump sum disability because they knew it would have been enough to buy myself a home; Have been homeless over a year now and can’t agree to America’s rules for fair housing because their rules aren’t fair for Black Americans altogether. America have set Blacks against Blacks; put them in positions to turn other Blacks away from houses and resources; but all they care about is their job. They know their job requires the impossible for many Blacks to agree to, but they easily and intentionally overlook it. How can I agree to volunteer or work if I’m disabled? I applied for disability because I can no longer work. And…It took forever for me to get that. My long, steady work history will prove that I’m not lazy which is used as their excuse for not helping Blacks. America will bend over backwards to help foreigners while we sleep on the streets. That’s the reason why they went out on a limb to employ people from different countries. They called it diversity when they clearly knew it was racism. They had rather employed foreigners to keep Blacks from progressing. America is reaping its seeds right now. Say good bye to America because it’s about to become a new foreign country to all Americans. You reap the seeds you sow. You must be fair to your own first, but you disclaim your own. ❤ And by the way;…..Reparations to Black Americans may be a good start in the eyesight of God who have watched how you treated us for so very long. Nobody in America should be homeless regardless. When God says enough; wickedness and injustices must stop. Not tomorrow but right now! In the name of Jesus; Blacks shall receive reparations so they may live safe and peaceful lives in measures of ours and our ancestors works. Father I pray a special blessing for these people that’s crossing over. Only you know their situation as you know ours. All we want to do is to live in peace on Earth as you intended for all. Amen. ❤

Just go through the proper paper works. if others did it, most in the long and hard way. The rest should too. and youll get it. You cant just barge into someone's home like that cuz they have something and you have nothing. It's like a home invasion and robbery.

As long as they fear us…. I DONT CARE ? \n\nThem good ole boys bitches now ?

I don’t have any issue with immigrants and the process for Mexicans specifically is fucked and takes way too long but this ain’t it, I wouldn’t put it past the US government to just massacre them all

We can't take care of our own but we can bribe millions of people who do not belong here just as long as you vote for Democrats. We will give you money we will give you housing will give you free health insurance but just remember where you got it from.

Even tho I don’t think this is correct, U.S people luckily finds themselves on a good position to see this just as people making a tantrum to enter the U.S, proudly I say I’m Mexican American and I’ve lived in Mexico and Brasil as well, non of those Latin American countries I lived is as bad as Venezuela and even like that I’ve seen some very messed up shit, they are countries with a huge culture and beautiful but on the lowest levels it’s a pretty dark place to be…so for the USA people here that is heavily throwing shit, be some kind of human try to understand at least , I get it, I don’t think this is the way neither, but they are not just people trying to invade to take over or whatever, I even saw a comment saying that they should shoot those Venezuelans, the world is a pretty messed up thing now, and luckily or unluckily we don’t really know a shit about it, they are DESPERATE it seem like they were violent and most probably some of them tried to get violent but most of them is just desperate people trying to have it better in their only and one only lives..worst yet, if you have a kid, imagine how worried would you feel for not being able to provide your kid with a good life… see the people in the front for example, they were people begging and crying, is being desperate for having something better, and this is a really biiiiiiig subject with a lot of issues, wrongs, misunderstanding… you don’t know how bad is going in Venezuela, not even me, but I can imagine it cuz I know how bad some people have it in Mexico, and they don’t know how them illegally getting into the US is going to affect the US, I try to get all points so I don’t think this is correct, this kind of events shouldn’t be happening, but I also understand, just to put it in perspective, I’ve talked with some people from Venezuela and they’ve told me some crazy stuff, quick example. McDonalds something most American people know …for one person only it can be around 15 - 20 bucks, in Venezuela, and I think minimum wage rn is around 6.15 bucks and if it’s good it can be around 20 - 30 A MONTH, now apply this formula to EVERYTHING, housing, bills, expenses and I think things in Venezuela for a little bit better not that long ago,so it was worst than what I just told you, imagine you finish college you have somehow of a decent life and for things you don’t understand and no one advise you of, next week your job, money is not even half of the value it had last week, imagine if it was you and your family, your kids…I don’t have kids but I know my mom would’ve done anything for trying and give me not even a luxurious life, but a kinda decent life, and I know most of people would’ve done the same, and not only for your kids, also your mom, dad, sisters, brothers and even YOURSELF…again, I’m not saying this is correct or it’s not I’m just saying at the end our surrounding make us do whatever we are doing….I get you not being okay with this, but try to be comprensible and not go straight into hate for this people. \n\nUnfortunately I wouldn’t imagine anything to solve this problem and I hope something better comes for the entire world right now …but I just doubt it…

Why are we seeing this, hmmm where could we possibly even begin to start talking about the failures of our border. Long story short this was a long time coming and we need to go isolationist real quick or we’re gonna have all our money shipped out to Mexico

Great job Mr Soros,he did the same in Europe not long ago\nIt's sad how the elites use desperate people for their agendas

as bas as the rest of the main stream media is, and they all lie. BY FAR the worst is CNN. If CNN is your main news source, you are typically ignorant and out of touch. The border has been out of control for a long time.

Crazy we can allow that for so long!

These invasion gate jumpers have a rude awakening on their event horizon...most of them will not have long to live...they will be used for organ harvesting, sex trafficking and ritual murder and their children will be raped and beaten to death with their blood being harvested for Adrenostuff. These ignorant slobs think they're coming to the promised land...the land of free food, free health care and housing, free education...they have no idea that they are hours to maybe a few days away from their horrific demise. It's as ig they never existed. Sad.?

This has been going on for a long time now but CNN I'd acting like it's something new. Maybe because they have been saying this whole time that nothing is happening. Trump was right

They're going to over run America.. there will be crime even higher EVERYWHERE now.. America has gone to shit a long time ago..

Let 'em through. They think it's so much better here? Let them through, but do not waste a single resource on them. Our own people are suffering and ignored, so let them come rot on the streets. Treat them as we treat our homeless. See how long they stick around. No ID? No job, shelter or help. \nStand on the road being talked smack to with a sign all day, and enjoy the elements! Maybe someone will give you a few dollars to eat, maybe they won't. Enjoy.

they all coming to America for us to take care of them while we get abused by these people with diseases and everything they are illegal America can people shouldn't pay taxes or anything else until they become legal as long as they're illegal on American soil. American people should sue America for taking on all of this on their finances we are paying for this mess and people that live here have a dream and they're not receiving their dream enough is enough this is some unfair garbage.

You guys sound so stupid. It could take months EVEN YEARS to be able to be let in LEGALLY. AND on top of that it costs thousands for the legal process to work. How would I know? My parents. It took them 10+ years and probably more then 30k to win. and no they never had problems with any types of officials. Just in case assholes wanna assume that that’s the reason why it took so long.

The Biden administration sees a future opportunity for long-lasting votes. Our government could care less on the greater outcome that this will cause unless it's put in their neighborhood. Thanks to Abbott, bussing them to those areas. Hopefully, this plague won't just hurt TX.

Just so we are all clear with the facts… On January 20 when Biden was inaugurated the border was opened. Check the fact. I have been watching footage of this for over 2 1/2 years now. NGOs have been secretly transporting illegals all across this country. Why are you only hearing about it now? Because the main stream media refused to report on it. It’s been happening so long and estimates are 5,000,000+ are now in this country illegally since January 20 of Biden’s inauguration. now, when they could hide it no longer, the main stream media began to report on it, because election season is on the way. Children have been transported all over this country, unaccompanied, fighting, aged men, and no, not all of them are family units. That is a fact. What has happened to this country in two years under Biden, is a travesty, conspiracy, and impeachment is in order. If you go and look at the facts, do your research, do your homework, you will see that what I have said is absolutely true it started as soon as Biden was inaugurated, the very same hour that the papers were signed. Biden has destroyed the rule of law. He has destroyed our nation security. They were not properly vetted, and we do not know who is in this country. We are being set up!

How long ago this this occur?

Immigrants have more “rights” and “programs” to help them succeed and contribute to the American society than those born here. Problem is a large percentage aren’t coming here to seek a better life. They work and send everything home for their families to live better in that country. Or commit violent crimes and burden the state even worse. If a politician supports a vetting process then they are deemed “racist”. Fact is America is moving backwards. Won’t be long before you see crowds like this trying to get out.

If they looked at how much debt we have, and see it won't be long before we're as bad off as them then they wouldn't come here.

This is why crime is rising for so long. People are getting desperate and crazy

Fake news . This was long time ago. They are al back home now.

Not to long and people will start rushing the other way.

Venezuelans? Hell, Venezuela is a long way from the Southern US border! What the hell are they doing invading from Mexico! We need to repel this invasion as we would any incursion on our sovereign territory. With force!

This saddens me to my soul. I was born and raised here in America and never thought in all my years would ever see something like this. America is no more as long as that potato head is in the white house.

They are occupying vacant schools here in El Paso. The city claims they’re being kept there and not allowed to leave. But I see them walking along I-10 at night. Heading where I don’t know. Long walk through the desert to California.

I don't agree with them trying to force their way over the border. But, what we now know as America was overrun by Europeans fleeing Europe. You overran the borders of the Native Americans to get away from tyrannical kings.\n\n America has known for a long time this was coming but they kept kicking the can down the road. If US citizens do not want people from the Southern nations fleeing north then our government is obligated to help their government stabilize their nations. That's the only way people from the south will stop trying to come up here. They need strong government and a stable economy. Otherwise, this is just the beginning!

This has been a war for so long. They flood in for free benefits. Our country is destroyed. My family and I are legal immigrants. This is terrifying.

These immigrants are not coming to build America better and they want Welfare benefits that taxpayers will pay and they are not like the immigrants that came from long ago that love the USA ??

We need interpreters, like Tony Gonzalez and Ted Cruz to explain in their language why they were deceived by Biden (for votes). Send them to SANCTUARY CITIES.\nAnd they’re gonna have to wait right where they are for now. Maybe for a long time. Maybe we should publicly humiliate the Mexican president for not honoring the “remain in Mexico” policy that worked when DJT was president. These people need to be processed before they’re released onto our property. Taxpayers pay for everything. We don’t need any more death and destruction breaking out. Just give them something to eat and drink, and make sure no harm comes to the children. It’s obvious there are some bad seeds there that need to be kept separate from the normal folks that fled their shitholes because of the promises Biden made. I don’t wanna see more Americans die from fentanyl, or run over by cars, or murdered on American soil. Call in the national guard. Every state should be very concerned about this. I know Florida has hundreds of thousands of illegals already homeless here. God help us all.

As bad as it is there are people from many Nations wanting to escape their country. Not just these Guys but some wealthy people such as Chinese, Russians etc. They must stay and change their own country. We can not do there job for them everytime. Many Western countries had to fight their Governments long ago. This is an example of when citizens do not fix their own Governments. Go home , fix it up.

Hi I have a question , What is Grandparents DOB is not known. My Maternal Grandparents passed away long time ago. And we dont have any records. Do we write an approximate date ? is a mandatory Field ?

I've been looking for work for years, they have taken over whole towns where I'm from, Im from Long island you boneheads, I had to leave my home, family, everything! Not cool Americans have to leave America to live like a American!

They’re definitely a huge part of why drugs like heroin and coke are spreading like wildfire, then say they do it for survival and for their families yea it’s okay for y’all to destroy someone else’s family and life’s as long as you and your own are okay? Fuck that if it’s so hard keep all the drugs over there and do it yourself a help lessen everyone’s pain.

Any country, Russia, China, No. Korea, Iran can invade this country and take over as long as they don't carry guns. I'm not sure if anything would even be done if they were.

So, as long as you're a decent person you should be ok.

Come on in guys, bring your whole family the Biden administration will take care of you as long as you promise to vote Democrat

Didnt you guys have that bald guy on not too long ago and he said “weve got it under control”\n\nDoes that look like under control to you? You sold America out for Soros money. Shame on you.

Cue the dancing turds...this administration has created a long term cancer...How will this contry look in 20yrs...health care, housing, jobs, retirement, education...will all be in shambles...and i'm only 48...God bless those who are on frontline dealing with this mess

Alllll illegal aliens must be deported instantly no matter how long ago the invaded and for what ever reason all 35. 38. Million must be deported back to Afghanistan no matter where they invaded from

It's ashame that people didn't like Trump and settle with current clowns they got in their now hope they learn something from this will repercussions for a long time the cartels are getting fithy rich hmmmmmm who else also getting paid

Sorry but why do you have to take her words as the holy grail? I have been in this word a long time and I know perception plays a good part in forming an opinion or worldview.

This is just way out of hand. And it is on long enough. Send the army down there fully armed and fire warning shots if you have to. This Hass to stop. For people seeking asylum I can understand. But there are so many cartel members and terrorists from other countries getting through that our national security is in dire jeopardy right now. Thanks Joe Biden. Thanks for helping destroy our country for the past three years.

Racism succeeds because, they practice it TOGETHER, in UNITY, without shame, fear or care. As long as we keep accepting it, there will be no end.\nNot that long ago, we acknowledged one another in public, had each other's back(without verbal communication) and gravitated to where ever black people convened.\nToday, we avoid eye contact with one another. We frown at one another(some women are notorious for this), we avoid one another and will get into a fight with one another faster than with a non community member.\nDespite all I have written above, I have come across some genuinely loving community members.\nLet us be GOOD to one another. Things will change for the better.
