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.

Please don’t destroy my Mexico along the ways. Emigrants all over the world even people from the island get to Mexico to go through the Mexican border and the US. Also a lot of the immigrants from South America end up staying in Mexico.?\n\n\nI think Mexican economy would be way better standing today if migrants didn’t come through our country & on top of that staying.??\n\nI will be sad when my Mexico becomes overpopulated ?

And half of them will fly a flag from another country once they get to the USA. I am saddened by whats happened to a once very great country.

The cartels are knowingly spreading false information on social media saying Biden is letting everyone through. \n It's sad that many who are claiming asylum, when that's not what is actually needed. They want our way of life, which I can't fault them for, but we can't just let everyone in and give them more than Americans get themselves. \nWe seem to be the only country who is hated for not letting anyone through. Both arms of my family did it legally, they have to as well. Yes, it's hard now, but we aren't in a position to do this.

We can't even get help from our own government. The only way Americans could get help with anything would be to give up citizenship leave the country then illegally come back in

They just want a better life for themselves and their children.. their country is in shambles, people starving, can't find jobs. They need to fight for leadership change unfortunately in that country they shoot you if you try to go against the government. With everyone struggling there's not much chance of overthrowing the government so they run to other countries where they think we can provide a better life. In the past I wouldn't have had an issue with this,. but our own issues have been getting worse and worse,.

A real country would have military with automatic weapons and start firing, turn around or get hauled away in a bodybag. We have rules and laws follow them losers

I get wanting a better life. But American people need to come first. Veterans need to come first. We deserve to have happy lives more than others just bombarding into our country. America can’t even take care of it’s own people first and that’s embarrassing. Every country has a strict way to be able to get in/get citizenship. Yet, when it’s America, everyone yells racist, classism, etc. WE are more important and I will forever say that people who aren’t from here do not belong until they do it the right way.

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!

The biggest problem with this, it vetting. Why? Anyone that comes to a another country and does not follow the process of security, should do their best to get vetted. If no vetting, we will be letting people into the country that drains the country of monies for it's own people, allows criminal minds into the country and worse, someone that just want to comes to a country because it has Welfare.

It's crazy that it so messed up where they live that they are willing to put themselves thru this...I don't really understand government&politics..But why won't these Countries invest into there country so there ppl will stay?America can't handle all this We are not what We use to be..We are getting weaker&more in debt be the seconds..The world need to come up with a plan to make this stop&Help these ppl live comfortably,in some form or fashion..

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.

As a black American this makes me fn sick. I don't hate Latinos but the way these ppl are coming here like this illegaly is sickening. I really pray for the border patrol. I can't imagine what they have to deal with amd it's being done intentionally. We got Americans on the street and vets without proper care so to watch this video and look at these ppl faces flooding our country makes my fn blood boil. The crazy part about it is these ppl will get into the country and start waving those dam flags around like they didn't just risk their lives to leave it because it's so broken and corrupt. The nerve of those ppl. If you love Mexico or wherever your from so much why don't you go back? Oh wait because there's nothing to really be proud of. This administration needs to be impeached already it's gone too far.

START POPPING HEADS , like any other country would do and people will get in line. we have no room here. biden has sent our money to ukraine and raised our economy so high that we will be running to their country in a few???

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!

The bigger question is that many people from other countries are in Mexico, like China, Africa and South America! Who paid for them to be there to get to the border and why is mexico doing it when they would put me, as an American in jail for entering illegally! Mexico will protect their northern border but since it is so corrupt, will turn the other way around from their southern!

And every person that comes over here from every country that's breaking our laws coming in from our Southern border United States need to find that country they need to find them and get that money from him and send them people back

They were paid to come here, democratic backers need the crisis. Like they always teach, never let a crisis go to waste, and always create a crisis if you can't find one. Soros and his cronies paid for bussing them before, he is known for taking down countries. This isn't a shock to anyone who has been watching and it will get worse. Buss every illegal to Washington and all democratic states. Keep the busses running.

I feel bad for the immigrants who are able to get into America. They have no idea that America is about to be judged by God with plagues, bank failure, civil war and martial law, food and water shortages, tyrannical government, mushroom clouds and invasion, earthquakes that cause California to go into the sea. Tsunami waves that will submerge west and east coast. Watch, they will leave and go back to their country once these things take place and Americans will start fleeing to Mexico instead.

Try that with borders in any other country, you get moved down. Only in America.

They better get control over this otherwise their country is going to have a huge problem like the U.S.

Fighting for freedom is protecting our freedom we will not be free if we are overran if they overrun that border every other country will overrun all the borders that’s why we are America that’s why Mexico so fucked up no rules take no put him back get rid of the cartels problem solved

idk about you guys but that is not the kind of people i would even want in my country. my parents immigrated too but never expected hand outs nor did they ever recieve financial aide of any kind. why give our taxpayer dollars to these people when we are not even taking care of our own people? people that they themselves have paid into the system. i have also worked with them and its been the worst experience. they dont want to do the work right and get offended when you try to coach them. they show up to work to recieve a check but dont come to work to work. they are people that just expect things to be given to them because thats how it used to be when venezuela was rich off oil. its sad that this is how they represent their people

And people wonder why a lot of people have such a dim view of migrants. What kind of brain rot has to affect someone that they think they can just run into another country and get mad when that country wants none of that.

Illegal immigrants already risking their lives getting into a foreign country , why don't they risk their lives in changing the fate of their home country by overthrowing incompetent leaders and changing policies So that they don't have to leave their country for an uncertain better future.

Actually there are other countries that allow people to just walk in. Have you not heard of the hundreds of people who arrive in small boats and rubber dinghies into the UK every day? The ironic thing is that many are rescued by the British navy and coastguards when their flimsy craft get into trouble and are actually brought from international waters to a UK port.

Americans love their drugs so this will always be a problem. As long as the drug cartels and police continue their rein of terror… Also getting mass migration from other countries, but their more stealth about it.

Everyone always gets pissy when you talk about walls & stuff . We've always aloud people from all over to come here , just do it the proper way . Try this shit at any other border damn near in the world & you'd catch a bullet in the head ! Time to put the emotion away & Starr making decisions that are good for our country & the people that live here ! Secure The Border !!!! At any cost necessary!!!!

‼️Mexico just joined BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa), an alliance of countries that are betting against the U.S. petrodollar. This happened about a week ago. Every country that threatens the US petrodollar gets attacked by us, even if the US makes up the reason to fight (FF). They need this to happen like this in order for them to fry their one world currency and one world government. This is either a set in their fake ass movie news bullshit or they encouraged a legit rush for the border so they can spice this shit up for their plans later. None of this shit be purely organic or coincidental. And they are ALL in on it, including our country; USA. Mfs be lyin and playin dangerous games with us. Pay attention!

It sucks they can't make their home countries home and think America is the answer. Meanwhile, America itself is going to sh-t, and it’s only a matter of time before the American people revolt. Ironically, some Americans choose to live abroad because they hate the system here. Get ready to be taxed and overcharged for every living expense. There is no mercy for any worker in the US.

People, you don’t think that all that is because of the policies abroad ? If you make it impossible for them to leave in their home country, where you think they are going ?In Haïti for example, look who this government chooses to support : »Ariel Henry ». A guy whom they accuse in the plot to kill our last elected president… You refuse for that country to have its army, insecurity everywhere , hunger etc where do you want them to go? Change foreign policies. Help countries get better and see if it will not be different. Everyone loves their home, everyone. Home is home.❤

What are they even doin. If you are not able to get into US legally, you won't be able to make proper life there. And being poor in rich country is a lot worse than in poor country.

To all the people in the comments upset with poor, desperate, people with no power instead of the American government that has undoubtedly destabilized these countries to the point where their citizens are fleeing to other countries…know that you are angry with the wrong people!\n\nThese people just want better lives for their families! That should cause everyone to question why they want to leave? Is there something we can do to support change in their countries so they don’t want to leave? Can we advocate for that in our politics? Is there something we can do to make housing more affordable? There isn’t a housing shortage, we have 600,000 homeless with millions of vacant homes! Can we advocate for the rights of people over giant real estate companies like Blackstone gobbling up houses and apartments, making them unaffordable before we scream that there aren’t houses for these people?!\n\nThe complete lack of effort around finding a solution is mind blowing to me! Everyone just resorts to basically saying they should all be kicked out!! Why can’t we find a solution? I just don’t get why this is such a controversial issue! Kicking them out or criminalizing them is just sweeping the issue under the rug. It doesn’t solve the problem, meaning after a while they will come back and we will be right back where we started. \n\nI guess I just feel like there should be a little more compassion and problem solving when talking about immigration!

America is such a racist, bigoted, transphobic, homophobic, xenophobic, country that people are literally dying to get it. Got it.

Our fu$$ed up President has an open checkbook for other countries and doesn’t give a $hit about Americans with his open borders. All of them come her and get free housing, medical,dental,education,drivers license, food ,cell phones, groceries and free housing

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.

Wtf hell nahhhh get the hell out of here if we tried that crap to Venezuela, any other country, America’s will be detained and placed in prison who do they think they are all these migrants coming over here, rushing into our United States like if all of us want to work to take care of them get the heck out of here with that craziness!!!! if we try to run into another country, that shit is dead I don’t see why we don’t do the same thing we don’t got the money and the taxes to be paying to put these people in prison…nor do we want them here. \nMigration is the Trojan horse in America that’s what’s going on they trying to overpopulate us and distinguish our finances to kill our country and our economy

I get that most Venezuelans main objective is to get into the US, but they are literally invading all South and North America countries. Not only that, but a vast amount of Venezuelans are delinquents. \n\nIt is sad to see them leave their country looking for more opportunities, but if they have the strength to travel from South America to the US and gather enough people to raid the border, they surely can find the strength and gather enough people to overthrow the dictator.

Good. Keep them out, so they can learn that this country isn't a charity house. Unless you plan on getting legal citizenship, and are a skilled worker, get out and stay out

Wow. I have a degree and couldnt get in. These immigrants couldnt fix their own countries now they comming to fix yours. Haiti. Venezuela. Afganistan. Somalia. High quality immigration right there. Hiw do you think this is going to play out.

Born and raised Cdn and every point you raise is valid IMO and experience. I love my country however, it is hard to get ahead, we work too much, and cost of living is so expensive. The reason why Canada is wonderful for those who stay is A) Charter of Rights and Freedoms - we are protected by laws and citizens enjoy legal, justice, policing and gvmt services that help protect quality of life. B) it is a safe country primarily and not easy to reach for insurgents, terrorist attacks and political anarchy etc. C) We have so much land and space for people to decide where they want to live - density is not high so you can have space. D) it is a beautiful country with awe inspiring nature. E) we do have one of the best immigrant populations and that is our crown. Being diverse is a blessing so if you are atheist, Christian, Muslim etc doesn't matter - you can enjoy freedom to worship as you wish. And F) Healthcare could improve but, the quality of care is world class and speaking as a breast cancer survivor who's treatment ran $120k (diagnostics, chemo, surgery, radiation, med professionals, rehab and drug therapies) we have access to that care whereas in other countries you may not.

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.

I have waited for over a year, pay a lot just to get to America legally and that's how it should be! So much homelessness in this country already why is the government letting it happen?

Get the hell out of here and go home,!!! They have no desire to vet at all. They'll just come here and disrespect us and turn our country into shit.

Come in legally or don't come at all other countries jail you and kill you for this very thing why are we letting them get away with this invasion

The crazy thing is that many of their governments get funding from the US and their own government keep the money for themselves and their own families. Corruption is what has these countries poor and desperate.

My family and I came here over 20 years ago. We have done everything!. Taxes my family opened their own business they have been a example of a American people. We even met people who are maga hats but loved my family because their humble ways but also how welcoming they are. Now this people are fucking entitled! I came to this country and slept in a room with 14 people. This people want their own rooms ,housing for one family. I was so happy when my family helped me out and I got my first boots I was rocking them like you wouldn't imagine. They literally get money, housing,carry iphones. The fuck is wrong with the government. Yes help them ,but first help the people who have been here before

I am not against immigration but the fact of the matter is this in this country aren’t going well even for its own citizens. Homelessness is up, inflation is up, unemployment, gas and groceries are up. The average American has to make a choice every month wether they get to feed their family or catch up on bills. We need to improve our infrastructure some cities are literally falling to pieces. We need to fix our country just like these folks need to do to their home country, running from the problem won’t fix it.

No body sees the fact that all the illegal immigrants in this country pay taxes through living expenses and a lot of times wages but they don’t get to draw retirement…

This is the thing guys we are have the highest inflation ever in at least five decades, we have poor American citizens living on the streets homeless and with no food, we are going into the biggest recession in united states of America has ever seen since 2008, we have the highest interest rates in many years that we have ever seen and a lot of people are going to lose their jobs in the next at least 18 months, we have the worse health care system and people are getting sick and dying. \nTimes have changed unfortunately and this is year 2023, not 500 or 300 or 100 or even 50 years ago and there is no comparison.\nWe need to close our borders and take care of our own united states of America citizen first.\nLet's stop sending trillions of dollars in cash to other foreign countries like Ukraine and letting people illegally in our country. ?
