America can't take care of their own citizens, if we bring even more people that we can't take care of, them we will be screwed

Venezuela’s free nation demise came about because of the liberal voting policies of its citizens. They kept voting for Marxism and they finally got it. Now they want to come here and probably bring the same ideology with them. NOPE! Sorry, not sorry.

Nothing but an invasion. Mexico used to stop them in the southern border w Guatemala but Biden’s Admin changed that, now Americans are seeing what they didn’t see b4. And there are a lot more coming… most of these people were relying on social services in their native countries, so guess where they going once they cross the border? We US Citizens will have to pay way more taxes to support them.

We don't want these cowards here. These scumbags won't fight for their nation why would they fight to make our nation better. If you come here illegally it should disqualify you forever from becoming a American citizen.

As a Canadian citizen I would be jailed and prosecuted if I tried to illegally cross the border!

Blame biden!!!! These people thinks america owe them. They will be dependent on the government for everything at tax payer’s expense. Meanwhile a lot of us citizens are homeless!!!!

My wife is from Venezuela. She wants Venezuelans to be safe, but at the same time, she knows they can’t just rush themselves into the US like this. Both sides for and against immigration are not wrong in their ways of thought. Unfortunately, the most sound-minded decision would be to close the borders and focus on the struggling US citizens.

America doesn’t even have the resources for their own citizens, you guys need to figure it out in your own countries and solve the problem instead of just abandoning it.

But the border is secure remember. I can't believe our government is allowing American citizens to go through this.

As a native Venezuelan who legally immigrated to the United States, served in the Navy for 22 years, and became a U.S. Citizen, and a contributing member of society, watching this enrages me. No one has the right to come into any country illegally. I get their plight, but they still need to enter correctly. I know Venezuela's situation is terrible, but either fix it (by whatever means you have) or apply for asylum. Forcing yourself into a sovereign nation is illegal.

What is the UN doing to implement stabilising countries so people don’t have to flee? It never seems to be about making all countries a place for citizens to be safe within.

If WW3 happens? Lets send these people that are so desperate to be here, lets send them to war, if the make it, then they can become an American Citizen, and they can live here, i bet none of them will fight for America? They will run back to their home countries.

What I don't understand is how people from another country feel the us owes them entry and support. Why do we pay taxes? Why do we pay for our shelter our food our power our water but these people can just push their way into the US what about citizens that are homeless that are veterans that are elderly ? F Joe Biden Mayorkas needs to be fired

Yknow this puzzles me, so many of these countries talk so much shit about The U.S but yet here's tons of mfs trying to get in :/ like if we are so bad why the fuck you trying to come in?? Stay the fuck out of our home U.S citizens are already having housing problems due to cost of living/inflation we don't need a bunch of immigrants begging for jobs or housing idc what problems their having we as the untied states we have our own problems to take care of.

America… for the love of God please start protecting OUR OWN borders instead of worrying so much about other country’s borders around the world!! The left is so worried about being woke instead of taking care of the Americans who pay for all of it. I’ve busted my A$& all my life to work hard and am tired of spending billions of dollars on foreigners who just abuse our systems and get free money, phones, places to live, medical care, food, etc. and act like we owe them. It’s bad enough we have enough actual citizens who abuse the system because they are too lazy to work and care for themselves. I’ve always been one to care for others but this crap has gotten out of control and I’m done. It also makes the US look like a bunch of weak SUCKERS!!!

If they behave like that, then they will not make decent citizens!!!

How can this be happening? Is this reality? There’s no border defense in America! American citizens are profiled and killed unarmed daily walking driving and at home,insanity!?

Why was the armed forces called it's a danger to American citizens that's what I want to know some tanks and guns they wouldn't have done anything

Canada's not stupid like the United States they are not just going to let people enter their country an roam free illegally, Canada's won't even let you in their country if you are a United States citizen that owes child support in America, they have control over their border unlike the United States which is sad for the most rich an powerful country in the world but can't control its borders.

We take better care of illegal aliens than we do our own citizens!!!!!!

Hello American Christian Patriots! Do you ignore the WORD OF GOD? \n\n\nI am a stranger and an alien residing among you; give me property among you for a burying place, so that I may bury my dead out of my sight.’\nGenesis 23:4\n\nYou shall also love the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.\nDeuteronomy 10:19\n\nThe alien who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.\nLeviticus 19:34\n\n‘Cursed is anyone who withholds justice from the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow.’ Then all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’\nDeuteronomy 27:19\n\nWhen they were few in number, of little account, and strangers in the land, wandering from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people, he allowed no one to oppress them; he rebuked kings on their account, saying, ‘Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm.’\n1 Chronicles 16:19-22\n\nI was eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame. I was a father to the needy, and I championed the cause of the stranger. I broke the fangs of the unrighteous, and made them drop their prey from their teeth.\nJob 29:15-17\n\nThe Lord watches over the strangers; he upholds the orphan and the widow, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.\nPsalm146:9\n\nFor if you truly amend your ways and your doings, if you truly act justly one with another, if you do not oppress the alien, the orphan, and the widow, or shed innocent blood in this place, and if you do not go after other gods to your own hurt, then I will dwell with you in this place, in the land that I gave of old to your ancestors forever and ever.\nJeremiah 7:5-7\n\nYou shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the aliens who reside among you and have begotten children among you. They shall be to you as citizens of Israel; with you they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.\nEzekiel 47:22\n\nThus says the Lord of hosts: Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another; do not oppress the widow, the orphan, the alien, or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another.\nZechariah 7:9-10\n\nYou have heard that it was said, ‘you shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy’. But I say to you, love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you.\nMatthew 5:43-44\n\nI was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.\nMatthew 25:35\n\nTruly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of my brethren you did it to me.\nMatthew 25:40\n\nYou shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.\nLuke 10:27\n\nThen Peter began to speak to them: “I truly understand that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.\nActs 10:34\n\nContribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.\nRomans 12:13\n\nOwe no one anything, except to love one another; for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.\nRomans 13:8\n\nLove does no wrong to a neighbor, therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.\nRomans 13:10\n\nIn that renewal there is no longer Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free; but Christ is all and in all.\nColossians 3:11\n\nLet mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it. Remember those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tortured.\nHebrews 13:1-3\n\nBeloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the friends, even though they are strangers to you; they have testified to your love before the church. You do well to send them on in a manner worthy of God; for they began their journey for the sake of Christ, accepting no support from non-believers. Therefore we ought to support such people, so that they may become co-workers with the truth.\n3 John 1:5\n\nAnd I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “See the home of God is among mortals. He will dwell with them as their God; they will be his peoples, and God himself will be with them.”\nRevelation 21:3

350k homeless US citizens yet this administration wants to financially support undocumented illegal economic migrants with no background checks with taxpayer$ US will become what these people are leaving!

Venezuela needs to do better for its citizens.

I am not racist but no one should be allowed in this country illegally. Not a Biden fan or supporter but not a Trump fan either. I do agree with Trump on not allowing illegal immigrants into the country. They have to go through the legal steps like all foreigners who take years to become a citizen. You can't skip the line. Also, they bring a lot of Mexican gang members over who murder people in the US and are racist. Biden sucks for this. I'm African American also. Housing is already bad. My building is full of Hispanics that trash my building destroyed property disrespect other tenants. I am neither dem or republican but lean towards republican in cases like this.

This might seem sad, but we don’t allow American Citizens to illegally pour into a bank, courthouse or the White House without a legal process just because they are needy.

I’ll take all of them over a lot of the ungrateful citizens we have today.

Thank you, Joe! You are the biggest joke I've heard in the last 3 years. AMERICAN citizens should ALWAYS come first. Another school shooting, but instead of addressing that, you decide to talk about ice cream. What a despicable little man. What a despicable base of voters who voted for him.

Americans...stop Venezuelan citizens. Do not allow them to enter illegally...or legally...I know why I say this.\n\n\ndo not bother with mexicans. they will enter in one way or another (unfortunately)

i lean more democratic. but I find it interesting that not too long ago the Mexican Government said they are safer than the US. but the Border shows thousands of their citizens trying to come into the u.s. one has to ask them self if they are so much safer why are the citizens fleeing?

Unfortunately they won’t have a better life here in 2023… back in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s it was moré economically feasible but it’s too expensive in the states now.. plus illegal citizens can’t apply for any benefits..

They’ll take them from everywhere, but they don’t want the Venezuelans or the Cubans because these people are well aware of the horrors of communism. These will be conservative voters if they can become citizens, so they will definitely stop THESE people from crossing into the United States.

Keep them out! Us is already highly populated! California is way over the top already! Slow down the papers for outsiders! I am a American born citizen, 23 now , my parents came to the USA over 30 years to escape the war on a ship and have No citizenship and have hard time getting it and support. These guys get the easy green card and government benefits and shit. Including housing! Wtf we struggle to pay bills already and rents expensive as fk. Don’t let anymore of them in! Send them somewhere else or send them home!

Biden and other Demoncrats and voters. Look at all those future ?Demacrat voter's.. no ID needed. No matter if your a legal citizen or not.

We don't have room for the whole damn world. No more mass immigration; the United States of America exists for American citizens.

They have 0 zero respect for our country. It's not America's fault that other countries are so dangerous to their own people. That being said, yes, morally we should help people. But the people in need of help need to be respectful and follow the boundaries (laws) of the country trying to help. This is ridiculous and dangerous. They are not US citizens but they think they can just push their way into our country. We as Americans from USA are not allowed or able to do this to other countries

This is a joke ! The same thing by the Canadian Border. People can't just come across the border but blame the US. If they took the border that serious they would have finished it years ago. I would love to move to Japan , but i can't just go there illegally It doesn't work that way. All these people coming across illegally won't get any jobs. They will know if you are a citizen or not.

Deploy citizens with guns to defend their country.

How much more are we, the native and legally earned American citizen’s, going to take from this dumb ass President and his cabinet of fools?\nI’ve had more than enough and it’s way past time the American people reinstate President Trump. \nOr have the democrats caused enough confusion by trying so hard to find criminal charges against Trump that we’ve started to believe the Bullshit Pelosi wanted us to believe even before Trump took office? \nI’m so disappointed that our government does nothing to halt the situations Biden has us in now that are truly detrimental to our way of life and will haunt our children and grand children for decades to come. I love my country with a passion and I truly hope there are some intelligent politicians that will finally put a stop to Biden and his poorly implemented policies and decisions that we are forced to endure. This dumb President must be stopped now, but it may already be too late. Yet I still say Power to the People so let’s do something about it. If Biden really won the election, those who voted for him should be very ashamed of that decision. \nLet’s reinstate the man who really was making America Great Again.

Life is a roller coaster ? \nI remember when Venezuela had oil ? and their citizens where bigger than God Almighty. That was 70s and 80s.\nFast forward to 2000s, and 2020s,\nLook now they are begging in the border because they don't even have toilet paper.\nTwo presidents (Chavez& Maduro)brought that nation to its knees. \nThe luxury and the social programs in Venezuela were for everyone to envy.\nTwo mans destroyed a wealthy nation and now who suffer? The people \nBecause the ones ( Venezuelans) who help to do the stealing$$$, are living in Texas and Florida like millionaires.

when you deploy the national guard against your own citizens but never foreigners breaking border boundaries

I don't feel sorry for Usa. They deseve this. Their embassies keep rejecting regular citizens applying for visa.I guess they need this!!!!

This is at a checkpoint. What do you think is happening where there is no wall. Don't think everyone crossing are citizens of Mexico, Central and South America. Not to mention the border to the north that no one even thinks about.

If these were American citizens they probably would have got beaten or shot that’s the problem with these illegals “no serious consequences”.

been here since 83 and naturalized citizen. went through all the process, why cant they do the same

Wait until US citizens are trying to enter Mexico the same way once a deep recession, or even a depression, hits. Mexico is an emerging economy; the US is a declining economy.

The US government is waging a war against its own citizens. #DoNotComply #DoNotForget #Agenda2030

I am sorry to say but we have enough immigrants in Canada we should go back to the way it used to be they had to have a job when they got here they had to have a bank account when they got here they had to speak English when they got here and they had to have a sponsor to account for all their actions before they could become a Canadian citizen

It's about time we don't have the money, we have a health care shortage. We can't keep letting able body Citizens whether born here or not live off Welfare going back generations. No one's screening the people who have already crossed over then once they get Citizenship they can bring all there relatives here is ridiculous enough is enough. If we had the resources is one thing but still screen anyone coming into Canada. We don't need other countries criminals & any more diseases brought here. We went through SARS then COVID-19 is here to stay.Try helping the people we already have you're burdening an already over burdened system. I'm not a cold hearted person actually the opposite just do it through immigration rules & policies. If there from Syria sure help them reach out to families that may be able to take 1,2 or maybe more into there homes to help.Quebec & other Cities or Towns in Canada can help too. The rich get richer & then there's the working poor & those who live off the system. Look what Free Trade did to this Country! People are working more for less & the cost of living is through the roof along with food prices.

What a joke ,caneven supply housing to citizens but filling Canada with votes,what a disgrace .these countries where migrants are coming from and are rich in natural resources and agriculture. The problem is .The government which is corrupt should be charged with war crimes against humanity . But . The political parties are using them in a game of pawns

The authorities often show their power when they overwhelm you significantly in numbers. American citizens have been beaten or roughed up for far less provocation by the police.
