What pisses me of, lack of support for veterans and the rest of Americans

As soon as they get across the border everything is free. Help the illegal criminals, but let our veterans and children live on the street sick and starving.

What gives them the right that they can just enter the country?? They need to fight for their rights in there own country we have americans and veterans at that in the streets homeless we need to take care of our own people first.

Our government can't take care of veterans and they keep letting people in, thanks Biden

I do feel bad for their situation, especially since their government is corrupt and allows gangs/cartels to flourish. But it's not our problem. We have homeless veterans and even our lower class families struggle to keep their benefits. No one who is illegally living in our country should be given better treatment then our own struggling people. And sending money back to those countries does hurt our economy, it's supposed to be spent here than aboard.

They need to go back . Help Veterans.

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.

Over 300,000 homeless veterans wander the streets searching for food and shelter currently. Dying at an estimated rate of 22 a day due to self inflicted harm….the system in place to take care of them and provide comprehensive medical care is crippled and broken….every SINGLE ONE of these men and women has a head full of bad memories and experiences from defending their country in war (some missing limbs)….can’t hold a job and have trouble finding a job….NOONE is making substantial and reinforced efforts to care for these brave men and women. Yet, if you cross that border illegally you’re given shelter (free stay at 5star hotels in NYC sound nice)…comprehensive medical care…food stamps and even job placement for some. And in some cases, we’re providing that help to individuals who are simply making a pit stop between Mexico and Canada because it’s better for them there according to some. Frankly, we have enough issues that are swallowing us whole and need to focus on building up and caring for our own citizens and force stop mass migration, strongly enforce deportation as well as employing more case workers to help with legal immigration process. We spend all this money sending to Ukraine and yet here we are, cutting our own throats to save someone else’s hand. I have no issue with legal immigration and asylum but you need to go through the process like those before you. I know this is asking a lot but it IS possibly to make it work

They want them benefits. Meanwhile, they are trying to lower veterans disability. America has its own problems. Don't know more.

Save your own country first …we can only do so much for others… Canada also carries a mass amount of homeless people… we are very diverse, but what about our own citizens that are dying, mentally Ill, financial loss, elders,veterans, addictions. These people need to upmost help…and are being ignored…find what is wrong and help them.. without the help cities become criminal grounds because they need their fix, they need the money and they need the help.

Charity begins at home and ends abroad. Let them fix their own country and whatever's going on there 1st. We cannot take on any more people into this country. We have a crazy amount of homeless people, people that are veterans; that don't even get adequate housing or funding. Yet they think that they can come over here and just do whatever they want. Meanwhile the actual citizens of America are paying X amount of dollars in taxes which are steadily increasing year by year due to situations like this. We need to fix our own country first.

Americans can't even find homes for themselves.\n\nVeterans are homeless...\n\nI heard this since I was a kid. \n\nI am 31 now with no children and a Wife, veteran of U.S. Army.\n\nWith no real income even though we are both teachers.\n\nDumbest career choice ever. \n\nWth is my kid supposed to think about higher Ed when they see there teacher working part time at a Chic FIL A? \n\nThat is messed up. \n\nOh yeah I also have 68k student loans they want me to pay on starting in June. \n\nBut no way to pay it. \n\nREVOLT ! RISE AMERICA! DEFEAT YOUR TYRANTS AGAIN! \nYOUR LEADERS ONLY SEE YOU AS SERVANTS AND DOLLAR SIGNS!!! They want us to hate each other and be divided.\n\nRISE.....RISE.....RISE!!!!!!!! \n\nWASHINGTON, JEFFERSON, FRANKLIN, ADAMS, ATTUCKS.\n\nLINCOLN, GRANT, \n\nWOULD NEVER HAVE STOOD FOR THIS.\n\nIF IM GONNA DIE A WASTE WHY LIVE IT?!?!\n\nWE NEED REAL CHANGE!!!!

BTW, I AM a homeless veteran living in. A Uhaul truck and I would gladly give them a home and the shirt off my back

We are over run now with illegal aliens our veterans are homeless our housing is in crisis schools over run wic foodstamps hud we are not able to take care of illegal aliens . They ALL NEED TO BE DEPORTED NOW!!

We have to take care of our own first or homeless veterans are on the street we can barely have our own homes and stuff because high taxes and they come over and they get free phones free money and free homes the hell with it I'm sorry go back to your country United States needs to take care of its own take care of the veterans first piss on the rest I'm sorry

Young girls are being trafficked. Democrats don’t care at all. If they do they are awfully quiet about it. 100,000 fentanyl deaths each years. Biden doesn’t care because their probably not his voters. Everyday 20 veterans commit suicide in the USA. Neither party cares. Biden’s homeland security chief lies with a straight face that the borders are secure and gets away with it because nobody cares. So MF sad.

We have homeless veterans that we need to take care of!!

This is a sad, sad situation!! They will get government help while our US veterans are homeless!! Shut that Border down!!!

As a Veteran I say this: ALL THOSE who hate our country (regardless of citizenship status) who live here, abuse our resources WITHOUT putting anything back into them, and those who leech off Welfare when they can work but are too lazy to do so, should be exiled With citizenship REVOKED! ALL THOSE who want to come live better lives, AND CONTRIBUTE to our great nation, should be allowed to come and live here. THAT is the American Dream. THAT is American.

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.

My in law US veteran spend around 10 years dealing with Veterans Affair to get his retirement fullfill then last minute they demand him to take a drug test ; imagine in ten years been poor he would of end up doing. Illegal drugs to deal with PTSD. That is why a lot Americans or disappointed with immigration laws i am Mexican and i understand both sides but where is the fairness to the people average poor people from the US; definitely politicians are happy with this confusion

Shame here in the UK they just give all the illegal immigrants 5 star hotels to relax in then make us tax payer pay the bill of it all. Costs us billions a year to keep them here and I find it disgusting like other countries we can't even house our own people as it is and war veterans are on the streets.

Sure , this is the place to be .... Biden wants to give immigrants social security benefits! How fkn lame is that? Biden should make himself useful and make more funds available to our veterans instead of funds to all kinds of foreign countries. There are people HERE that need help, NOW!!!!!

Why do they feel entitled that they can come here and be given benefits. We can't help our own, the veterans the homeless, the working poor. I'm so sick of them. Stand up and fight your government for your rights. We Black folks did. We didn't run to another country for relief. With help from other fellow Americans, we forced a change. Yeah, people died, but we stood our ground and won.

We need to take care of our own citizens and homeless veterans before people from other countries. They have governments they can vote. They should be fixing their own country instead of coming here and trying to take advantage of what we have. Make your own home better..

We definitely need to ALWAYS put our Veterans and Americans FIRST in America !!! ??

something has to be done to put a stop to this. the president and his administration is doing nothing. Americans are struggling to pay bills afford food. veteran's are going homeless. God help us. we sure aren't getting any from Washington.

When we buy our new home I will open the old home to homeless veterans only❤

They need to make Venezuela great again, and demand from their country what they demand from ours. We don't even take care of our working homeless and veterans, we got nothing for you.

I'm homeless, Navy Veteran and work full time. If housing programs can't help homeless Americans, how can we help immigrants. I want a home too. Update: I'll elaborate more on my situation. I served for four years. I lost my job as an Uber driver in 2018 after my car got repossessed. I live with my fiance who has PTSD from her family upbringing. She tries to work but she doesn't last long. We have gone to 3 different housing programs and they prove to be unhelpful. You make too much money from working they can't help you, if you make too little money they can't help you. WTF!!! All housing that is offered is usually in areas that are in high theft and homeless areas. People steal from you and you up right back in the streets. One program helped me become a fully trained security guard. We have also been in two car accidents, none were our fault. But now I'm stuck just living in a car and working full time. After I work all night I drive around at gas stations, asking people for money for gas and food. Every check I get goes to gas, food and bills. We manage our money wisely. Our money last a day and then we have to go straight back to asking for money again. Everyone I have asked for help is always a broken promise. I don't know what to do anymore.

I think US citizens should over thrown their governments and set up a bigger united states of the americas. It would be easy. With all the weapons the citizens themselves have, all the veterans with military training.

Help homeless veterans NOT ILLEGALS !!!!

While veterans and poor Americans have no roof over their heads, the government is allowing thousands of Venezuelans into the U.S paying for everything they want. This people (Venezuelans) are being sent to different states and transportation is being paid by Biden, also their are getting food stamps and stipends... all given by Democrats.

Yes and if these people truly believed in God and Jesus they wouldn't run from their countries but actually stay on the ground and stand strong in their faith that God and Jesus are going to help them persevere through all this. As a fully disabled American citizen with a child that doesn't even get $1,000 a month and there's no available housing at all where I live no waiting list to go on people on SSI disability don't get any extra housing help we're not offered separate housing are put on separate lists and low-income Able Body people or the migrants jumping the Border but I was born and raised here paid taxes and worked until my body literally couldn't anymore but I don't hear anybody bitching and screaming and crying about the fact that my son and I would be on the streets if it hadn't been for one of my family members stepping up and giving his housing after a lifetime restraining order issued during my pregnancy on my son's biological do do with domestic abuse situation. I'm also US citizen that spent time in the Wards in Houston and projects and other cities and if you don't think that we don't have the same gun violence drug trafficking human trafficking gangs take it over cartels taking over neighborhoods and communities than you're freaking lying to yourself and everybody else. The same s*** that's taken over these countries is taking over the inner cities have been for decades and these are the same communities that most of these people will end up in. No it's not about not being good Christians part of being a good Christian is reminding people to stand their ground and have faith in Jesus and God and their own home territory and not to give it up to the crime people in the bad politicians. You can't say you believe in God and Jesus Christ and then he's got your back while you're running and that's the truth in the reality that nobody wants to hear the more people run from these countries the more the bad people are able to take over and then we get complaints here in the states about the cost attacks is rightfully so. For those people screaming and shouting that everybody should go out pick up in my grant and bring them home to their house and feed them and take them and I challenge you to do the same thing for homeless before you even do the migrant do homeless American citizens go out and really educate yourself because I'm totally tired of hearing from Americans that the only people that live on the streets are people with mental health problems that need mental health treatment or people that are stoned out and that's where they want to be you guys are so f****** wrong and this is coming from someone that met homeless people spent time around homeless people and understand we have a society that wants to paints a very different picture than what's truly going on because then it allows for hey it's not our problem they want to be there. I will say there's two I'm sure a lot of people are attracted to come into the United States I mean it's kind of turned into the Devil's Playground don't you think I mean look at how ostentatiously people live the projects on the backs of taxpayers selling dope holding down dead-end jobs to make it look like they're working all while going out and getting their hair did and their nails done and their eyelashes done and pimping out their cars and all that b******* and buying all this you know high-end tennis shoes and f****** clothing and Handbags and s*** and then we have the part of the United States that justified of themselves all the time or it's okay to have this huge palatial house or have multiple houses I'll we have United States veterans living on the streets or people that truly have disabilities that have been a waiting list for 2 and 3 years for housing. I remind people all the time and they hate hearing this s*** Jesus never had a house as a matter of fact Jesus basically live like a homeless person after he was an adult particularly and God made sure he was provided for. I mean did you all forget the night they came to take them away they were asleep in an Open Garden it wasn't like they popped up tents or glamper camper sites had some little Adobe type cabins they were sleeping in. As a matter of fact if you pay attention to most of the stories about Jesus and talking about him sleeping he does a lot of sleeping Outdoors. Remember God is a father that's how he's been represented and talked about in the Bible and Jesus was a man without a doubt no biological transgender question ability there. People need to remember that part of being a fair and loving. Is also teaching and discipline and these children following rules. I don't believe hearing God and Jesus telling all these people run from your countries and not have faith that I'm actually going to fix things for you and go run to somebody else actually go run to the United States where all those stuff is traveling through. I never understood the logic of that it's like rats run from the country where they're making the drugs to the country that supplying the globe with it and we're all of these bad people have thousands of people in planted everywhere with guns and hookups. I don't know why people don't understand that we have dirty lawn forcement in dirty politicians that are in bed with the dirty drug cartels that's as much as they are in the country. You don't think that there's not decisions made in the United States based on drugs and I'm not talking about how to put it into them but how to keep them flowing. I have Fred still in Florida and we were all making jokes about how quickly Sanibel Island all the way up to st. Pete got Mainland access so quickly after the last major hurricane that took everything down and we all know what it's from is because that portion of Florida is used to bring a lot of drugs in from South America, Central America. So for all of you that want to post your personal assumptions about homeless people because that's all it is unless you've actually been homeless or spent time around homeless you really have no clue what's going on in the homeless population except what you've been told by the same political talking head media bulshit that's been lying to everybody about a bunch of other stuff too. Don't you get it the politicians don't want people knowing that a lot of the people that are homeless on the street are people that are disabled and aren't disabled because they have mental health problems I know that's the narrative they've been trying to stuff down people's throats.

They need to ship them back to their own country's. America needs to help their own especially our own homeless and veterans and elders.

White people arnt moving away they are being forced out there houses by Muslims. Even veterans aged from 70-95 are having there windows smashed by there Muslim cu@ts that’s why. We need a law that said even if a person is born in the uk by not a white British person with a traceable history in uk they can be deported back to there country of Origen no questions asked if they don’t obey the uk laws or any country’s laws

I don’t know why I want to come here. This is a horrible country. It doesn’t protect his veterans. It doesn’t Texas homeless doesn’t protect anything except for politicians.

As an American veteran who has watched illegal immigrants take the jobs away from American people me being one of them this pisses me the f*** off.

This bull crap I'm not paying for there health care I'm not giving them free food house take care of our veterans he'll with these people shame on u letting them go

I can believe that they care more about immigrants then US civilians. Example NYC there’s a lot of homeless people and what is the city doing ,giving building shelter, vouchers homes , $$$ , moving the immigrants everywhere in the United States .How about our people , veterans

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

How about we turn them around and find housing and jobs for our homeless and jobless veterans? The very people that have defended your freedoms. The reason Venezuelans are doing this is socialism failed in their country, just like it always does.

If we keep letting in every person from every other country we will lose everything we value and hold dear to our lives. We have homeless Americans with drug addiction so they can numb out the fact that they have lost everything. We have families in mass living in their car's, veterans ignored and tossed aside like garbage. Empty house's in every state that the government can buy and section8 them we look to China and other countries for electronics ect; Detroit shut down for Toyota to ship in their vehicles. Yet the news shows us this crap, can the government please fix the USA and make it America the great again!!!!?

It sad the the us send billions of dollars to other countries and forget about their people here veterans elder people so sad don't understand maybe is something that a lot of people in us like me don't understand ?

We can't help you! Our country can't even help it's own ppl especially homeless veterans

Send back every person that crossed during Trudeau's marxist authoritarian Chinese aided government.\n Give our poor mentally ill struggling veterans the 100s of millions $ instead of criminals who've done nothing but hurt Canadians by forcing thier way in by abusing Canadian rules thanks to the despicable, gross trudeau governments actions.

This needs to be closed… period. There is legal immigration and it’s not walking across a border. We have seniors and veterans living in poverty, people living in the streets in -20 (I see them). Take care of our Canadians.

Why do they wanna go to that shit country though?? They can’t even take care of the Veterans that fought wars for them what makes them think they will care about them

Why they don't do that in Venezuela? But they demand in the Mexican country ,USA and in Canada. We fight for our freedom. In Mexico they are offering free 3 meals a day and I was told by law enforcement they put the food in the trash. They pay the coyotes over 10,000 usd were do they get the money ?our USA economy can't take them in. .families here in USA of veterans go with out. They should fight for their freedom in velamzuela and the country they come from..

As a Canadian majority of us don’t want illegal immigrants. Why do we the tax payers have to dish billions upon billions every year to throw these broke people in a nice house while we have homeless, veterans and troubled youth. No wonder our country is a shit show.
