How does some phone app thoroughly do a back ground check on total strangers entering our nation. How does an app make them Legal?

If they are not legal in this country, they have no write to protest either.

I believe that the relationship between a Country and its citizens is much the same as a parents duty to their child. Governments have a DUTY to care for the safety and well being of their citizens. I would like to see a UN declaration stating that governments must accept their citizens back into their borders. And that the home country must reimburse all those governments and organizations that fed, clothed, transported, sheltered and rendered medical aide to their citizens. NO COUNTRY must be allowed to dump their citizens like trash at the side of the road. These are THEIR CITIZENS..IT IS THE HOME COUNTRY'S DUTY TO TAKE CARE OF THEM up until the time they are LEGALLY granted citizenship elsewhere. This application process can be done while the person is still in residence in their own Country. It is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS to take the illegal route. Thousands of people have died in the process. This must be stopped by every Country along their route. We have a humanitarian crisis of global significance here..child trafficking, drug trafficking, violent gangs and organized crime all abuse illegal immigrants. If it was your child....what would you do?

These are just the numbers that they have to report. It's really much higher. There are other ways to deport. For example a friend who was on a legal visa (but continually did visa runs) was ordered by a customs officer to buy a ticket home now or face a 5 year visa ban. He bought a ticket home and self deported.

Guys it’s call surviving people looking for better life imagine yourself in this situation sad to see this \nBut it always been like this world turning around it’s getting worst\n16 year ago i came to uk legally fpr better life and i worked hard pay taxes im thankful ?? for ?? i just hope all this turns out good and hire ?? legally hire with documentation those poor people to argoculture jobs

We bring about 1 million people a year legally. This is way over and above that. There's over 50 million ILLEGALS HERE NOW.

What makes them think they are entitled to be here? Or entitled to what we've worked hard for? Or that they should just go to the front of the line? Or to bankrupt our country by handing out free everything?\nGo home before you are caught. Come back legally. LEARN ENGLISH!

Everyone, go back to your country and apply the legal way. We want you to come over here legally like it should be. Not illegal way

Why are they not going through the channels to become US citizens the legal and right way? I dont understand why they arnt trying to do it legally.

You want to come here do it legally. You can’t do this anywhere else in the world. We can’t fix the worlds problems when we can’t even fix our own here in our country and yet people defend criminals for there behavior and enable it even more which is even worse.

Look, I get it. The USA is a great place to live and people want to live here. Just do it legally and you're good to go.

Do it legally and we have no problem.

Or the migrants can work to enter legally

Ethical woman! All she is saying is DO THINGS THW RIGHT WAY! Come to this country the legal way! Much respect for this woman

it's not on par with biden it's already past it and there they are here legal then they have nothing to worry about but if there here not legal then bye bye the return to there country

I have two family members that did it legally which is a total pain!!! ZERO sympathy from me - ZERO!!!!

This is disgusting. Why do they think this is ok? It’s criminal. You can’t just icross a border without doing it legally anymore. Biden is gone. Go home or do it legally.

Colombia has taken so many evil people and poor destitute people from Venezuela as refugees and it can’t absorb them but Colombians normally come legally to the USA and make great Americans my family in law for example are good conservative people who support Trump and I’d like to have my family in the USA all in one place especially is colombia will turn into Venezuela under a corrupt regime who has ruined everything and hurt most of the citizens idk how he won if he did even win but the USA came into Colombia before to stabilize it and it worked for a long time and there are 30,000 U.S. expats here or people with family ties or like me who happened to marry into a Colombian family. Not long ago I saw Trump with former President Duque and their wives and there was a beautiful relationship and colombia was booming in one year the USA must put back the former establishment and restabilize the mess that has been made under this communist guerrilla member and I hope saying this doesn’t bring lash back to me or my family here in Colombia. But my husband and me want to come home to the USA as soon as possible he isn’t a criminal his father is a Pastor at a small countryside church they don’t deserve this.

Thank u Trump for shutting the boarder! If they continue, they need to start Pew Pew-ing and people will stop! They want over here for the freebies. If u can take care of yourself with housing and food along with medical, don't come. Come in legally!

I’ve been waiting for my husbands marriage visa for 14 months freezing the legal visa processes for Colombians who are married to a U.S. disabled veteran citizen born and raised in the Midwest is wrong. I pray the President restarts processing legal visas for this married to U.S. citizens \nI am not able to walk well and my only caregiver is my husband so I’m stuck in colombia until my husbands visa is approved. Most people here hate President Petro he has ruined the country and now he is ruining it more we can’t speak out against him but my husband and his family do not support the President of colombia and a ton don’t believe he actually won the election. Colombia has always been a close ally I hope the CIA and Delta Force can fix things in Colombia returning to Uribe and strong U.S. allies. Other countries aren’t U.S. friend but Colombians love the U.S. and please don’t punish the people for the actions of a terrible president who ruined the economy here and is only got 1 year left in office maybe the U.S. intel system and military can “handle” the problem of a president who doesn’t have the support of the people. All my neighbors love Trump.

They are feeling entitled. No. We have laws. You come legally not on illegal way.

Stop whitewashing your wording. They are not undocumented migrants. They are illegal immigrants! I'm sorry that words hurt you guys and possibly the majority of your viewers but that's the truth! If someone wants to come here, I have no problem with that nor do the majority of Americans. This is an amazing nation. However, there are many legal ways to do it. I've served with several fellow Marines that did it the right (legal) way. And let's not forget, it's not only people from Central and South America that are pouring across that southern border. We've caught countless people on the terrorist watch list including people from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the like pouring across the border because they know how easy it is. Everyone is just mad because we finally have leadership that is doing something about it. And apparently, the libtards are either simply naive enough to think bad people would not come across the border and all those caravans are full of innocent women and children or they are trying to bring about the downfall and collapse of the United States. This is all simply ridiculous!

Go back! You wanna come over here and do it legally

The US can't treat Colombian migrants as criminals, what is that guy smoking and what is this reporter smoking for not correcting that absolute moron? It wasn't Planes full of migrants it was playing full of illegals you know people that come to America illegally as in snuck through our borders they are not here in a legal capacity whatsoever. And you do realize the Trump ordered the removal of all the dangerous criminals first right? All these people being taken back in these first few weeks weeks are all criminals with records murderers rapists drug runners gang members etc..

CNN Gas Lighting \nCNN now has to suck it up and live eith a Real President now!!!\nOver 20 Million will be sent home and enter legally

Keep them out if you want to come here you have to do it legally we that live here have to follow the laws too

They're not undocumented migrants. They're illegal immigrants. We have undocumented who are legal who only have to renew their papers

It's not ok but it's not ok to come in illegally too, why don't they just come in legally

I'm not even American, if yll don't have legal documentation, leave the country..

Are there any legal criminals??

i get it... i do... but man its so hard to see. those aren't terrorists! they're obviously people seeking a better life! is it possible to legally immigrate here? absolutely. my cousin did it. but its not easy. most american citizens wouldn't be able to pass that test, and its an expensive and lengthy process. i do feel so bad for these people. =(

You want to come into my country then you come in the legal way. You're going through the front door not the back door.

Breaking the law is breaking the law. If we were in their countries without visas or citizenship they’d put us in jail and kick us out. There’s a legal way to do things, all they have to do is do it. This is not gutter politics-it’s called enforcing the law.

Is there a difference between trumps illegal criminals vs legal criminals? And which one is he?

They feel we as Americans are obligated to keep and support them. Come here LEGALLY or send their asses back . Im sick of keeping illegals when theres no appreciation /respect for our laws. We CAN NOT support the whole world. They give us nothing\n Pres. Trump, get them out.

She's right my parents came from Europe legally, and that's how all people coming here should come here legally.

Why dont these people overthrow their own corrupt govts like our Founding fathers did..Go away man. Do it legally or not at all. Freebees are over.

You see in Canada tariffs on Colombian products would never happen, because Columbia only produces coffee legally for us. And Canadians love coffee too much.

Differences illegal migration and legal!

After he finished with legal migration is coming After those black people living in the US,for those that has put the vote in trump hand get ready that's is the price you will have to pay when you don't believe that you black thinking you have trun withe ????????????

Leave..next time come back legally. Also, who cares about coffee, obviously they don’t care if they don’t want to take their people back. We can get coffee from southwest asis

CNN is the biggest promoter of illegal immigrants...Enter the country legally and no problem...

If Trump was serious about illegal immigrants he would help them initiate paperwork to be legal INSTEAD of triggering a war! \nIf Trum was serious about America he wouldn't release violent Jan 6 criminals!

We are closed enter legally

Agree they should not come in illegally but legal or not let's just put the facts out there mexicans do not get free housing or food stamps. The Cubans, porta Ricans, and Venezuela people get those benefits it guess what the US gave the visa green cards so we should be telling our government to stop given visas out like candy. Also remember there is lots of nationality they are all not all Mexicans.

Go home and apply for legal immigration.

Send their ass back , come in the legal way and you’re more than welcome!!!

Pulangkan para imigran ilegal dan legal biaar para imigran bangun negara nya termasuk elonk musang biar adil ,para imigran itu punya negara masing masing biar negara nya bertanggung jawab kepada rakyatnya

We let this shit happen that when you want to give free money housing health able to pop out 10 kids and pay for everyone , while we the tax payers have to eat it and stay quiet . We the legal business owner have to settle for what ever we are offered for a job to get by cause there is always someone gonna do it for 10 times less when it could be paid to the people the holds licenses. We don’t get money in the back or a card every month for food we are denied , am vets a getting the bear minimum, and the piece of food is not changing ,

What I wonder is what about the European immigrants that are not here legally haven’t heard nothing yet
