This crap pisses me off. I’m all for legal immigration from other countries that have corrupt governments. BUT NOT THIS! Just who in the hell do these people think they are? Every single person who tried to shove their way into our country should be PERMANENTLY BANNED from ever being allowed to enter our country. No other country on Earth would tolerate such poor behavior. They just proved that they’re NOT worthy enough to be here as well. I expect the people who desire to become part of the American dream to behave in such a manner. If they want to act like wild animals and thugs, they need to end this garbage and go right back from where they came. They’re NOT our problem. And the conditions they left behind weren’t of our making. They created that mess, so they can go back and live in it. But don’t go bringing that crap here into our country. If you want to live here in the United States, then you need to respect our ways while leaving yours behind, just like every other country on Earth expects of the people that immigrate into their countries. I’m very liberal on immigration policies. But not on this mess. That’s when I put my Conservative hat on and send the animals and thugs back from whist they came…PERMANENTLY. \n\nREMEMBER…When you go and enter another country, you’re entering as a Guest to that country. You need to act civilized. If you can’t, they’re well within their rights to throw your ass back out…by any means that they desire to employ. Because when you enter another’s country, YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS OTHER THAN THOSE THAT THAT COUNTRY WISHES TO EXTEND TO YOU.

What's amazing is most Americans are too stupid to understand most of the illegal immigrants in this country came here legally and over stayed. They flew in on planes. This is Trump policies. That Biden did nothing about

America has fought HARD for centuries to achieve freedom. We’ve shed infinite amounts of blood for the rights we have. Freedom isn’t free. It takes centuries to get to that. People think it sucks to have to spend ten years becoming a legal citizen here, well count yourself lucky that you didn’t have to shed any blood, lose any family members, fight against an oppressive enemy for your rights, or lose your house in a battle for a free country. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, look up American history. Count how many battles were fought; how many wars; how many people died; how many Americans became POW’s on our own land during the Civil War. Look how hard it’s been. Look how hard it is now. We never stop fighting for what we want. Freedom takes work. America isn’t some island paradise. It never has been. We all live on the same earth. We all experience hardship. And there’s no amount of money, illegal border crossing, or anything else that can keep us from that harsh reality. In life we’re going to suffer. That’s just how it is. Stop thinking that illegally crossing a border is somehow going to solve all problems. It won’t. The grass isn’t greener on the other side just because. Bloodshed makes that grass green: Sacrifice. Hard, laborious work; and centuries of time.

Folks, I need to educate many for a second. When you immigrate to this country you DO NOT become a citizen when you get legal clearance. You can become a permanent resident at best which means you can live, work and do most other things here legally. You DO NOT get to vote or work in government agencies as a lawful permanent resident. To become a citizen you have to wait a minimum of 3 years, or more depending on your permanent resident status, to then apply for citizenship. You then apply for the citizenship application and if accepted the process requires you to take a test and go through a series of questions about U.S. history and government knowledge in an interview that you need to pass, before you are awarded citizenship. Through this process you are SUPPOSED to be committing yourself to the United States of America as someone who denounces your allegiance to your old country and is now pledging your allegiance to the U.S. This is now your home country and you treat it as such. You are now an AMERICAN, not a whatever from wherever that just lives in America. It should be a big deal and one to be proud of. I know people that have been here for 25 years as a permanent resident and they still have no desire to become a citizen. They have lived off of this country, raised families in this country, worked and benefitted from this country and still align with their old country and are completely amiss to what it means to become a U.S. citizen. There is a reason that only citizens are allowed to vote! Because you should have an allegiance to America and should vote accordingly and not be allowed to work in our governmental agencies for the same reason. Legal status and citizenship are NOT the same.

They should do this in their own country.\n\nThis is happening because of the incompetence of the hateful/ incompetent president that we have right now in the United States. If he cared about the American people this would not be happening. May I add that I am not against people coming to the United States but it should be done legally.

Sad that every self respecting human that can be isnt there in some capacity blowing these people away that are shitting on every legal migrant and naturalized and native born Americans right to live freely and comfortably in their country. But at least they do have nice new clothes and things to start with here as they invade leaving their own country in the shit for their patriots to defend and improve. \nYes we'll take your weak, your tired and your hungry. Nature will sort them accordingly.

If these people are using asylum as their reason for leaving their own countries of origin why are they not applying for asylum in the first country that they invaded that does offer asylum protection, Instead they travel straight thru to invade our country and burden Americans and selfishly block legal entry immigrants and selfishly block all Americans homeless in the streets because of their willing to work for less wages disruptive to Americans from being able to support ourselves house ourselves because resources designed for helping us has been diverted to illegal aliens invading our country because the truth is that it's an invasion from 150 some odd countries and even housing is using excuses to remove Americans from participating in housing aid for the soul purpose of creating space for them by ousting Americans from taxpayers dollars design for being used on us

Should have finished building that wall ? My pity to actual Americans and people who entered legally.

Instead of the Biden administration sending endless billions of dollars to other countries to feed their dirty business deals, maybe we could send that money to other countries as TRUE foreign aid to help them build up their own water supply, food, medical and housing. We have our own American citizens homeless and starving here and they should get help BEFORE ILLEGALS. Especially our Veterans who are ignored and treated like shit. This is all out of the pockets of taxpayers who can't get a break and now millions of illegals are pushing their way into the United States and demanding what they aren't entitled to. Cartels, human trafficking, dope, people from all over the world who are in a lot of cases, from countries with really no laws. Who are they? What sort of background do they have? What are their intentions? I'm not saying that they are all bad people, but we don't know anything about them. No vetting and of course, they will be granted amnesty and will vote. Not that our elections matter anyway. They aren't going to abide by our laws, obviously. Then what diseases are these people bringing here? Then guess what? The WHO gets to decide what is a public health emergency and throw down more restrictions and demands for more vAxXinEs. This is an invasion. They aren't here legally regardless of EOs. Any law that goes against our Constitution is null and void.

As an AMERICAN-Mexican…please build that fuckin wall! These people aren’t going to do shit to become legal! ??‍♂️??‍♂️??‍♂️

Our country is in shambles yet the progressive democrats want to hand out another 31 trillion in US tax dollars to people who won’t pay a cent to our country, who don’t care if they topple america and won’t fight for their own country. Put troops on the border and physically enforce the border. It’s not fair that there’s Europeans and Asians and Arabs who have to wait to legally immigrate meanwhile South American countries pound our southern border with drugs, illegal prostitution of young women and children. Build the wall, take any illegals as attackers of this nation.

Well guess we gonna have lots of street food seller and cheap labor lol put homeless to do that … yeah homeless people chose to be like that but again this immigrants need to chill it’s hard for average Americans to afford a life more people coming in more competition from the basic jobs and admit some companies will prefer cheap labor over the legal Americans I seen it everywhere but just my opinion

These people aren't welcome here by legal Americans regardless of what politicans tell you. the only reason actual American citizens aren't standing there with weapons pointing these people back south is because the very people who are harmed by this deriliction of law are themselves staunchly law abiding. Make it legal for armed Americans to repel this invasions and it would be over in a day.

Wow, spokesperson wonders why this is happening -- c'mon you stupid b*tch, think about who's in charge of our country. This is being done intentionally by our current administration. People always think US is the place to be, maybe for immigrants doing it legally. I live in Florida and there are American mothers and fathers raising their kids in tents in the woods here because they can't afford to buy or rent a home, despite both of them working full time. Yet, these anarchists are coming in and getting benefits asap -- homes, food stamps, medical care etc.... Damn shame what our country has turned into. Lastly, it's a shame because there are so many immigrants here trying to do the right thing.

If they want to come make them do the entire legal process then sure come on over but this stuff is complete bs and i truly dont want you here if you cant do it. We have enough morons breaking rules over here we dont need more from another country. Plus its hard enough for us americans to find housing/jobs already. Just stay in mexico or go somewhere else youre NOT wanted here.

To those who called Trump a racist for building a wall, he is not racist its for situations like this. Now America and Canada can't even afford to house and take care of their own citizens, so all these illegals coming in and flooding the housing markets, the social services benefits and criminals from illegal immigrants flooding our streets with cartel drugs, prostitution, extortion, over populated criminal justice system, and they aren't even legal or gone threw point of entry at the border. How is that racist? Its not racist its just trying to prevent all systems from being flooded with illegal immigrants. It doesn't matter what country they come from or the color of their skin. Its about protecting the American and Canadian way of life.

They need to pass an amendment that they get no welfare, free housing, or medical insurance. They’re not entitled to enter or receive anything from Americans and they’ll pass 7&8 countries when they’re supposed to go to the first country they come to. People should come in legally not just think they can invade illegally. There’s no way they can vet all these people and this president is endangering Americans. Also we don’t want America looking like a slum.

We barely have enough affordable homes and homelessness is on the rise. Illegal immigration should be a felony crimes like any other. we came here legally and waited 5 years to be an American why should these people we treated be differently? Go here legally.

I live in the border and I see Venezuelan people everyday walking in the streets, with no house, or a car, just walking with old clothes and shoes. They want to get out of poverty and get a job and they are desperate. And me too.\n\nI’m a Mexican who has the American Dream too but I will cross the border in a legal way. Not like that. And my mother has a shop where the majority of our customers are from Venezuela and Haiti

We have lots of open land where people can settle and go to legal process like in the old days when we claim free lands and then you can have people educated on the American way. Please don't be offended but I seen it traveling through the States, and not over populated, the government tell you that but this civilization is under populated compared to past civilizations, but whom im I , I just like to read a lot

Doesn’t matter what the foreigners thinks of Sikhs because they don’t know who the Sikhs are, I’m more concerned about what Indians think because it seems the government of India with its hate media are brainwashing the Hindus mindsets, Hindus never had problems with Sikhs having weapons because they know the history of the Sikhs, its the media pumping negativity about Sikhs and Khalistan 24/7 are turning the two communities against eachother, wake up people and stop letting them divide the people only to use you in their political games. Same stuff happened with the congress government in the 80’s all for votes. Anyway in America It’s not about religion or culture it’s about the Ohio state laws and the second amendment in the constitution that protects people from the law to allow people to carry weapons. I understand how much Indian government minions who are reading this comment with only half a brain want to disarm Sikhs ? but that’s not even the point here. \n\nThis cop idiot because Open carry of deadly or not weapons is legal under Ohio State law. Just like open carrying a pistol is legal, open carry of any type of knife is legal as well. The entire knife doesn’t even have to be visible in order for it to be considered “unconcealed.” The school principal already apologized to this young man and the Sikh community about this stupid mistake. So Let’s put a end to your hopes and dreams of disarming Sikhs, the world is automatically changing and becoming more Sikh like mindset everyday, just as they banned most all tobacco products in America including cigarettes in all public places. Gurus told Sikhs long ago to always stay clear of tobacco for health reasons. The world is just now catching up.\n\nDo you know why the second amendment was put in the constitution of the United States? It’s a safeguard against the government if they start abusing your freedoms and rights that Americans can fight against them, every government will always try to take our rights to control us but it’s up to us as citizens to fight back everytime. This was written in the constitution by the founders of the country because they seen what government will do if they’re giving a chance.

see this is why hardworking legal immigrants who try to live the american dream get a bad rap...because of these guys....

There’s nothing more ignorant then when people like this come to our country whether legally or illegally and then while living here they wave a big damn flag of their country of origin and talk about how great and awesome their country of origin is…..oh yeah? Then why did you run away from it? What a bunch of ignorant dumb assess…..if your gonna be here at least don’t be so proudly waving your country’s flag like if that peace of shit country did anything for you. This is America and yes America is founded by immigrants of all types but while this country gives you everything the only flag that you should be proudly waving is the American flag and nothing else, or at the very least the American flag should be the biggest flag you should be waving and try to learn some English, that way you don’t feel like people are taking advantage of you. If you were grateful and somewhat smart the last thing you wanna do is wave some other flag other then the American flag.

I swear a god they taking alll jobs to the point im Mexican and i live legally in United states for 9 years i pay tax and everything and Americans are losing their jobs

It’s just heartbreaking no on wins. I by the grace of God or just the luck of the drawl am so blessed to be here. Everyone should be thankful for being her and show compassion God says these are your brothers and your sisters. I will always blame are government because they have all used for 20 years as fear. They should all of them be locked in a room until they come up with a common sense speedy way to process them legally. No break no one goes home or leaves the senate the get a bill and stop blaming every the other party. Once again you elected officials should be fired and replaced. Just like every American answers to a boss. We are your boss and citizens to make there vote count we elected you in and we have the power to vote you lazy ass attention seeking money grabbing crocks out. Please everyone make your heard. We must have term limits for all!

Letting them in would not only hurt Americans, but would also be a slap in the face of MILLIONS of legal immigrants who are waiting in line to enter the country. Protect our borders!!!

Majority of Hispanics don’t understand this is a major problem. If the population is growing in the US. Inflation will rise. Housing, food, gas etc. We need to deport as many illegals as we can because legal immigrants deserve the right in America legally. Also, problem with these illegal Hispanics is they don’t even attempt to learn or study English and always raise their country’s flag rather than the American flag. I’ve seen this too much. We also have a problem with Americans here. Mostly black Americans. They’re extremely lazy, having a lot of babies, use drugs, loot, lie and break in. They are over privileged and always play the victim. This kind of problem leads to our taxes going to then as well.

HOW MANY IF THESE ARE CARRYING DRUGS- GUNS- DISEASES, WHERE IS THE VETTING HERE... RIGHT.. NONE , BUT WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT IN OTHER COUNTRIES.. EVERY COUNTRY HAS A BORDER.\nTHIS DISGUSTING FOR WE THE LEGAL AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!!!!

WHAT DO YOU MEAN... WHY IS THIS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW??\nARE YOU LIVING UNDER A ROCK, LADY.\nBIDEN THE PRESIDENT WITH DEMENTIA!!!!\nOH, WHERE IS THE BORDER CZAR HARRIS THE VICE PRESIDENT.\nBOTH ARE WORTHLESS.\nTHESE PEOPLE ARE ACTING LIKE FIGGEN ANIMALS.. NO WONDER WE HAVE MORE CRIMES IN OUR COUNTRY...WHOSE GOING TO SUPPORT THESE PEOPLE???\nRIGHT, WE THE HARD WORKING, LEGAL AMERICANS.\nTHANKS BIDEN/ HARRIS.\nIF THIS DOESN'T CHANGE BIDEN VOTERS NOTHING WILL.\nA DISREGARD TO OUR COUNTRY- FREEDOM-- MORE IMPORTANTLY OUR SAFTEY.

This is because Biden allowed so many in, as Governor Abbott and Governor DeSantis have allowed or transferred many into the United States. When people like myself have done things legally and yet waiting for the system to have my fiance wait for almost two years while these people come in running like cattle. Where the hell is Harris and why is she so mum? Why the hell did Biden pick a lazy VP when there was so many great candidates, but the Afro Americans cried for a black VP, but this VP does nothing.

Every Country thanks to Biden now thinks they can just show up at our border and be welcome right in illegally while the ones that apply legally get tossed aside and Homeless Americans disregarded so that illegals get their housing covered. It’s a disgrace and embarrassment to our Country.

Listen if we don’t do something about this our dream land soon will became a third world country us as Americans we need to come together and stop this illegal activity on my eyes ? everyone is welcome to America to enter but the legal way why those people don’t do the same with their own government they coming from smh nyc is soon to become a third world country city because this bs my point is USA need to be republicans no matter what God I miss president trump

As a citizen, I am very tired, and seeing those central Americans, South Americans, Haitians, Cubans, Europeans, Asians, and Middle Easterns come to Mexico to USA. There is no way to get in the US/Canada because you need to have legitimate valid papers. Especially to Central Americans and Venezuelans, they need to follow the laws. My parents came to the USA more than 50 years ago, and with proper documents. And for people who believe and blame Mexicans for taking their jobs. Don't! I know some do not have the legal papers, BUT blame the ones who don't follow the laws!!!!

Come over legally, Americans don't care. Come over illegally, you only hurt those who did it the right way.

Biden and Demonrats destroying America and the American dream for the legal citizens

We're seeing this, because the Biden Administration makes foreigners think our borders are open. They're not doing squat to protect Americans. It's not just families trying to come in. It's the cartels & criminals as well. There are legal ways to enter and become citizens.

Come in legally like every other American in history.

Most Americans don't know how lucky they are of being born in United States, I am a Colombian living legally here in the US, but the sad thing is that I can't stay here forever, I am gonna go back to Latin America in 3 years because of my VISA

This is so wrong....Our Great and Grandparents came here legally through Ellis Island...there was protocol to follow rules and regulations.\n\n\n\n\nNow these people think they can just walk through never learn English and live here and live off the government.\nthis is not fair,and this is wrong...The Borders need to be completed and fixed....Biden does nothing, his cabinet ignores the sad truth.....We have enough American poor and starving here.We do not need illegals coming in.

I feel sorry for them,but this isn't fair to legal citzens of USA we already have our streets full of homeless peoples; we need to take care of our own first! Americans and America have enough troubles going on right now in the America...we do not need to add to it!

I guess bussing them to other states caused Biden to change some policy in October. Other states didn't want it anymore than Texas. It uses up resources that Americans pay tax dollars for and these folks did not. They need to immigrate legally which is what we've been saying all along. CNN reporter why why is this happening. The bar must be very low for CNN reporters.

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

not a single one of these people must get through. the nerve to demand entry into a country by the use of force...just like that....while most of us have to go through the legal procedures and wait months just to have your visa granted....but that is the correct way of getting legal permission to be in the US.....all of those venezuelans are sent by their government to create chaos...its how south american communism and socialism operates...

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

This is infuriating. the arrogance of these people to just enter a country because THEY WANT to disregarding any lawful process. im Speaking as a LEGAL immigrant who waited patiently, followed all the laws of the United States to become a legal resident and eventually naturalized American citizen.

It makes me happy to see all the comments of legal immigrants to the US who are angered by this. Personally I have no issues with legal immigration from any country and I respect it and I'll break bread with you cuz your an American now like me. I think legal immigrants are a breath of fresh air and we can have some support coming from the Hispanic community against illegal immigration. Sm people think if your hard on illegal immigration your racist against Hispanics but that's not it at all. We need more legal immigrants with this mindset to help diversify the republican party and help to stop democrats from labeling it as a racist party. Now adays so many people aren't republican solely because they aren't white and think the democratic party is more favorable to anyone of color. But the republican party favors Americans period regardless of race. Illegal immigration is bad even if America was in a totally different place and bordered a white nation we still wouldn't want em in here just as much. If Canada had a curropt authoritan government and they were all illegally immigrating here than it'd be them we'd be having these disputes with. This is not a racial thing, this is about breaking the law and hurting the US economy.

If someone wants to come to the U.S., do it legally. Don't come here as an illegal, and find some loophole to stay here, undocumented and use resources & benefits meant for Americans & LEGAL immigrants. Because there's nothing left to take care of those who really need and deserve it.

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…

I have no problem with people coming here but do it legally us Americans aren't tryin to keep paying for all of you and none of you pay your fare share of taxes yo for real what the fuck type time are these dems on you know how dangerous that is do you understand how easy it is for Chinese or Russian splinter cells to enter the country like that do you know how easy it would be for them to blend in seeing that we're a country of multiple races of of people none of you think about that do you and it time for America to worry about its own backyard and mind our fucking business and get politicians out-of-office that have personal ties with other countries as far as personal profit gain

Good keep our American streets safe!! Come to our country legally I don’t see what the issue is I can’t cross the border without a passport
