I am Haitian American. Trust me, if Haiti was one of the best countries in the world. I would be very angry if a government just open its borders to let every unauthorized person in. I believe in law and order. So I don't look at white Americans as racists or anti immigrants if they stand against this. What's happening is very bad.

We need to kick all the illegal immigrants in the country out if they don’t wanna come here the right way and they can’t be here it’s not fair to the rest of the world. Did they get to sneak in and then we make other people that don’t share a border with us come here legally.

We have far to many problems of our own and allowing illegal aliens that most of them could possibly be criminals and drug dealers as well as drug carriers have been entering our country. The wall will just make them have to come up to the front door and show us who and what they want We can't help it if there country doesn't make them happy. Our country is on the brink of collapse. We don't have the money or resources to help illegal immigrants and our own citizens. We have to make sure that our borders are closed up tight for the next few years until we get our finances back in place.

Two solutions. Deport and stop letting immigrants in the country. Since they leaving they countries take it over and develop it like the United States for them.

As an immigrants who grew up here in the US. BRO IF YOU NO PLAN AND NO FAMILY, YOU ARE BETTER OFF IN THE COUNTRY YOU ARE BORN AND RAISED IN.

If we still had manual labor factories like America used to before companies used poor countries for cheap labor, we could take in a lot of immigrants and be an ultra global super power. China wouldn’t be able to compete. Too bad Chinese people are willing to work slave hours for slave payment?

If they try to force their way, shoot the 1st one, the rest of them will now know what could happen. If they come into the country legally, then welcome. Problem with these immigrants is a lot of them are criminals or gang members infiltrating.

This is impossibly accurate, even down to deporting then for bullshit reasons. It’s more about being deported because you or your kid have a disability, but the point still stands.\n\nWe really need to change our immigration policy, it’s from the time when we fully stole the country and still treated the native peoples like shit.

USA is who caused the immigration in the first place, why would you want to stay in the genocidal country?

This is exactly why we should give them a legal way to get in and have them enter the country properly we're an entire country of immigrants let them in if they have the money to pay coyotes they have the money to come to America

The United States of America need to wake up. Joe Biden is doing a terrible job. My heart goes out to the people who work in the custom and immigration of border patrol and for the state of Texas Venezuelan was taught to hate the People of Guyana if anybody wants to come in the United States come in early legally and get a working paper and pay taxes. And this government should not be helping them because the American people need help we need people. The citizen of this country need help Joe biden is Evil

Hell naw, we already have Ukrainians immigrants here and those mf are getting SSI benefits. Our government is so corrupt. It needs to be smaller and we need true leadership. They've completely lost our country

Well yesterday you had a Mexican immigrant talking about black slavery and reparations and what-have-you but today I get up and I look at this and I'm like what are you talkin about you have all these issues in your own country that you should be worried about???

They got tired of traveling through the coyote way-They want the Free hotels ?????????Free Cell phones \n??The food stamps!!!!!!!!!\nThe free housing because unlike our homeless drug addicts we have here living homeless/Some not even born in this country-They are “IMMIGRANTS !“\nWe provide everything for them when they get over here! They know that?????????????But come on !!???They’ll be here?????Just- first\nThey had to try this way-\nThe easy way!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg- I’m LoLing into oblivion from this crap! Wtf???? Look it’s the person that’s going to be shopping next to you soon. Pumping gas next you soon.????????They just gotta go through New Mexico Now-damn!\nOr California Now-damn!\nOr Arizona Now-damn!

Sad, very sad situation, unfortunately this country has too many problems that are not being solved. Secretary Of immigration Majorca says in congress that we do not have a severe immigration problem in our country, so what's this a legal crossing? What a disaster.

“Why are we seeing this?” Lol because they see that illegal immigrants have more rights than citizens under Joe Biden, and that any non-white people can break whatever laws they want in this country and they won’t be reported on CNN. If they are reported, then it will just be to blame white people for these individuals actions.

Halirious. Imagine breaking into a country that cant even take care of its own people. We care about giving 5 year olds sex operations, we care about tax breaks for million dollar corporations. But refuse to take care of vets. Refuse to help those that truly need it. Care about race when people are starving. Now we have millions of immigrants with nowhere to go nothing to eat. Leads to crime. God bless usa...complete joke

These people are demanding without any respect to the American laws... unbelievable! New York is so overpopulate that it seems like a 3rd world country in some places, immigrants selling all kind of crap on the sidewalk like they do in their own countries..you can listen people speaking Spanish for blocks in certain parts of new York and if you talk to them in English they get angry, believe me it happened to me. So yes the border needs to be shut down before America becomes another shit hole!

I dont understand.... all i hear is how great immigrants built this country, how much better and hard working they are and so on. But yet it seems to be impossible to build up their countries. I just cannot seem to wrap my mind around why they cannot seem to get it together.

It’s pretty interesting— Any central or south American immigrants are seemingly welcomed in with open arms, except for Venezuelans and Cubans, because our administration knows that they are already fleeing communist countries and they know that those immigrants won’t vote blue… Some twisted stuff going on up here.

THE SAD THING HERE IS THAT, THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY LOYALTY TO AMERICA. THEY KUST WANT TO COME AND MAKE MONEY AND SEND IT TO THEIR COUNTRY. IT DOES NOT BENEFIT AMERICA. I THINK THIS MAY BE PLANNED BY THEIR HOME GOVERNMENT TO DISRUPT AMERICA AND OTHER INFILTRATORS ARE INSIDE. THEY MOSTLY ARE GOING TO BREAK THE LAW AND OVERCROWD THE SYSTEM\nWE AMERICANS ARE REALLY STRUGGLING. CANT EVEN BUY A HOUSE WITH ALM THAT WE PAY IN TAXES AND SWEAT . YET THESE PEOPLE ARE COMING AND UNDER 3 YEARS WILL GET A HOME HANDED TO THEM . WHY\nWHY WHY- \nWHY ARE WE AMERICANS MADE TO GO THROUGH THIS KINDS OF HARDSHIP AND YET ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS MOST OF WHOM ARE HERE TO SUCK THE WELFARE SYSTEM GET PRIORITY.\nMOST OF THEM COMING IN HAVE MORE MONEY THAN AMERICANS \nAMERICAN GOVERNMENT, TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN CITIZENS FIRST . THIS IS THE RIGHT AND HUMANE THING TO DO ELSE, THE COUNTRY WILL LOOSE ITS FLAVOR.\nLet’s live in dignity. \nBEWARE OF WHAT YOU ARE DOING. THIS DOES NOT APPLY ONLY TO VENEZUELAN BUT TO ALL OTHERS \n\nWHEN YOU COME IN LEGALLY, YOU BRING DIGNITY

Biden is hiding these low life people in every corner of our Country! You can't even go to the Doctor anymore without 1000s of immigrants crowding the Dr office! Biden needs To BE IMPEACHED! ??????????????TRUMP FOR REINSTATEMENT!????????????❤

And Biden continues supporting communist governments in Latin America allowing illegal immigration, then people have to leave their countries, even crazy communist have migrated to the USA, the economy is crumbling and nobody is making America great again, instead of that is falling apart. Thank you Bidden and followers.

Biden knows everything. Somehow White House spends so much on Trump instead of keeping away many criminals. Our country is not ready to accept illegal immigrants with our systems yet. But Biden doesn’t care .

Bring caa and NRC becouse aour sarounding countries like pakistan is in verge of collapse and I don't want madarasa chap and anti hindu anti hindu chutiyas in my country to wipe out my religion by playing victim card so indian youth and indian muslims support caa and Nrc becouse aour nabouring  country where illegal immigrants comes ar muslim majority ex bangladesh and pakistan\nIndian gov kick out 30lakh illegal Bangladeshi as they are enjoying indian employment and facilities

Behaving in this manner shows how they will behave in the U.S.\nIt is not our responsibility to house and take care of illegal immigrants from any country. We have veterans and U.S. citizens that need help first and foremost. They are our responsibility not these people.

If our border wall was completed and illegal immigration laws were stricter, the people trying to abandon their broken countries may use their energy to fix them instead of fleeing.

You know what would happen if these people pulled this in North Korea? It wouldn't happen there. Some countries will shoot first and ask questions later. I'm just saying. This is ridiculous. And I support immigration if it is done legally and respectfully. But this? This needs to be gotten under control.

Because most of them are paid to come over here and run through the border Most of the rest are criminals sex offenders And murderers Fleeing their country because they're dictator Overlord Is rounding all of them up And executing them To reduce crime in their own country Only about 20% Are women and children And 30% of that 20% are Kidnapped and told to act like they're a family or they will be killed 260 active Known terrorists Have been caught Illegally crossing the border with illegal immigrants

This is ridiculous. I consider myself an independant cuz I agree with certain things on both sides but on immigration I lean republican\n\nThis country is the only country ppl do this in. Y do everyone wanna come to the USA. We gotta do something and I actually agreed with putting up a wall or some sort of stable barrier. Either come here legally or stay where you're at. I'm from the Caribbean and had to wait 7years for my greencard after filing and came here legally and these ppl just wanna rush our borders illegally. And I get your country is inhumane and sucks but we can't take in everyone who lives in a country that sucks\n\nWe have a huge homeless problem in this country and this will only add to it, not to mention these ppl can't work here and will probably go on welfare which puts more strain on the system and the taxpayers. We need to take care of our own b4 taking care of others. Why dont these ppl go rush canadas borders or go to mexico or somewhere else. This angers me

Denying people the right to not live in such horrible conditions is just wrong. What would you do if you were them? You would do anything for a better life wouldn't you? Screw the laws... history says enough about the illegal immigrants that created this country. Basic human decency says this is wrong. Let them all come here. Then they'll be nothing and America can expand. Just saying there's a lot of good that could come from expansion.

Every time when the immigrants doing this they cost a lot money to the Mexican government and the USA government ‘cuz the economy stops and the people who works hard they loose money..This people they need to fight in their own countries‘Cuz only causing problems to another county’s we are not responsible’s for their problems….

BULLSHIT statement that America has no room for destitute immigrants! I come from Flint Michigan, where there are TENS OF THOUSANDS of abandoned homes that could be fixed up enough to make passable homes for folks! The same reality of tens of thousands of abandoned homes in so many of our American cities. Where are the churches in all this? They should be helping and sponsoring these people to get roofs over their heads. America is truly a barbaric, uncaring Country. Shame on all you smug, unfeeling, uncaring spoiled -rotten Americans who turn a blind eye to the destitute, hungry, suffering and dying! Shame on you.

This is what the Democratic Party offers everyone, take a good look around. Open borders, taxpayer money going oversees, jobs being given to illegal immigrants over the country’s own citizens, etc. The Democratic Party if fundamentally Anti-American/Constitution, that’s why they want Big Government to have money, power & control over everything! Then they turn around and make you the bad guy if you say illegals should stay out because it’ll damage our economy even further. It’s all ass backwards!!!

Protect your country. As someone Who live in poor country I know it's my responsibility to buit my country and not transfer my problems to my neighbor. Trump told you which kind of people these illegal immigrants are He is 100% correct believe him. I know they are not hardworking and dadicated like some of us that's why they spend their time moving to imaginary paradise.

This is deplorable and it’s going to destroy our country in so many ways. First, our social, educational, and criminal systems cannot absorb this many people all at once. We have enough people immigrating here legally. We don’t need all these illegals flooding over.\nThis is all Joe Biden and the Democrats’ fault, for not doing anything for two-plus years, except inviting these people to come here. These people get benefits, free healthcare, welfare probably, phones, and they shouldn’t. They should be told to go home. They should not be given a court date and then released into the United States! That’s ridiculous. They should be loaded on a C-130 transport, retrofitted with seats and shipped home. The majority of them are not going to show up for their court date. They’re going to disappear into the United States, work under the table, take jobs away from Americans, and send billions of more dollars back to their home country where they have family. I think currently, $250 billion gets sucked out of the US economy every year, due to illegal immigrants all sending $50 each, per month, home to their families in their native country. That money should be being spent here.\nLastly, all these illegals and the “anchor babies” they are going to have here, and the descendants of those babies, are all going to vote Democrat in the future, because of this lawlessness. Then we’ll have one-party rule in this country. That will destroy the country. It’ll be a socialist dictatorship, which is not good. The worst part is, many of these women coming across, are going to have a baby within a year. That baby, who by law is automatically a US citizen, becomes their key to citizenship, because once that baby turns 18, he or she can sponsor his parents to become citizens and also sponsor other family members. It’s not right. That amendment to our Constitution, was meant for descendants of slaves to become citizens, NOT to be used the way it’s being used today.\nAnd if we’re not careful we will all be speaking Spanish in the future.\n\nVOTE REPUBLICAN! It’s this country’s only chance and DEFINITELY vote for Trump in 2024. He’ll fix this mess…

The United States is starting to get over populated cause a lot of people are coming from other countries. Instead of coming to USA focus on your country work on it instead of running away from it. And tbh it’s not fair that most of the immigrants like the women especially they apparently come here to work but yet get more help than the ones who was born here by getting EBT getting pregnant over And over again. I said what i had to say and if someone feels some type of way about it oh well ??‍♀️

It's the climate crisis + the stealing from the global south. Stop industries in poor countries! =helps the climate, stops the immigration!

Call it what you want, but people who claim to be high and mighty Christians should remind themselves of the struggles of Joseph, Mary and Jesus’. The holy family’s experience is one of flight, hiding, refuge and seeking asylum in a foreign country where they could be welcomed by fellow Jews. After they felt it was safe they return, and even then they went to Nazareth to escape the eyes of powerful men. In his later years Jesus spoke truth to power. Demonizing immigrants doesn’t follow the teachings of the Bible. \nSeriously get off your high horse and stop moaning a groaning and be apart of the solution.

Australia doesn’t have illegal immigrant problem because of its harsh policies. \nThere is no country can withstand an uncontrolled unfiltered influx of illegal immigrants. Time to get tough and ignore the voice of bleeding-hearts.

As Biden and Harris said “the southern border is under control”. It’s a good thing Australia is not a land locked country or this would be happening 24/7. At least with America, the immigrants wanting to come in are Christian.

This is a major problem. This shouldn’t be happening. What’s so dam wrong with their own country that they have to rush in to this one like that. America needs to hold their own government accountable. Sanction them. Cut off aid from them. Instead of pushing gay rights and lgbtq into other countries. Stop these immigrants from rushing into this country making it much worse for the Americans already here and born here. This has to stop and there need to be a strict policy in place to make illegal entry here a violation with immediate consequences of return back to where you came from. We have to many issues to deal with here

Statue of liberty is crying too... our government has raped the country and people so bad that we have no humanity left as a society. We are suffering too, you see the news... we aren't disrespecting other countries immigration laws to escape in masses. We are poor too, what yous ee on TV is the elite and they are a sliver of what the real America is. We are angry, desperate, hungry, over worked, over taxed and abused by police daily.... you are running from one hell, and into a worse hell. America is a lie, run AWAY, not to.

Any other country would just start shooting the invaders. This is not immigration this is complete disregard for the law of the land and should be met with force. Sorry lefties but reality is coming and this B.S. will stop.

Go home I seriously don’t think you would like it much if 100 million of us USA citizens decided to mass immigrate and demand housing , food, money for free from you! What you don’t like in your country, fight to change it, obviously there are enough of you

You know what, I’m an immigrant too. I came to America in 1988 from a communist country to have a better life and have religious freedom. But it took us more than 5 years, if not more, to get approved and jump every hurdle, every flaming hoop, and else they asked us to do, BUT, WE DID IT! Why do people think it’s ok to be able to come here illegally when others have to Jump through hoops to get here? And the stupid fucks who think they should be allowed to do that shit, should be made to put em up in THEIR HOMES AND NOT ON THE TAXPAYERS DOLLAR! Period point blank!!!! A country without rules will fall into anarchy. So many people do shit the right way, why do others think it’s ok to say fuck it and became a burden on the economy? Everywhere around the world, there are borders in place, and they’re there for a reason, to keep order, and to prevent illegal entry. Nobody’s saying not to come here, or that you’re not welcome or wanted here. But you have to do it the right way. Millions of people had to do it like that, by the books, the right way, you don’t get a free pass to come here illegally cause it’s hard, or it takes a long time. You’re not the first person to go through this hardship.

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 ?

These immigrants need to go back to Mexico country. They are drug dealers theft and the woman are just having fun having kids with different and using our American tax money it’s just not fair

These illegal immigrants are trying to violently push / invade their way into our country America. They should be shot. If they do make it into America they’re never given citizenship nor their children even if they’re born in the United States.

I am all for immigration because the US is built on it but these folk need to stop running away from their problems/their own country. It’s like the YTs. You can’t run away from your problems
