So freaking sad…..Americans are struggling as it is….a homeless vet is treated worse that immigrants…..that’s so wrong…..the sad truth is that these people need our help but our government is too busy sending $100 billion of OUR money to Ukraine because HE has personal business ties to Metabiota and Burisma there…not because he cares about Ukrainians. He’s making so much money and using our resources to do it…….meanwhile there’s an almost completely open border. A rise in crime, fentanyl, human trafficking, child trafficking, adrenochrome harvesting, homelessness, starvation…….and he’s worried about Ukraine..and ice cream

I think like u ...im 61 and with my son moving to ireland for university as he too hates ontario we are hoping to move there as well..i was born in scotland so having citizenship in uk will help us move ...im sick of taxes dirty cities homelessness and not seeing people who look like me...if we stay we will always have to work and my husband is 69 and still we could not afford to retire.

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

I want the US government to help these people but these people need to fight for their own country and quit flying to the US government one day discussion. Is not going to be a great country or Beacon on a hill? And we're not going to be able to go to their country and draw just show up in a spit whatever ranks that they have

I was taught that charity starts at home and then it spreads abroad. We have homeless people ( Americans) here that need help. Help our own people.

We wouldn't have this problem if Trump was still in office and yes we have homeless over here we have people we can't feed over here do you know how many military men and women are homeless but yet nobody's helping them and they fought for our country

What is happening in Mexico for these people to try to get over here like that?? Someone needs to help them in their own country***figure out what the problem is***if it's the mafia been someone get rid of them***

Feel sorry for them but this is unacceptable. This is an invasion. You ask for help , you don’t demand or invade a country unless you do it to your own country. We know People are running from their countries because of government corrupcion, starvation, no good pay jobs, etc. ONU and those so call Internacional organizations are turning their faces to the other side and now we see the results. Enough is enough.

Why don't these people stand and fight to make their country better. Running away from their own country does not help.

Lol. How far can you walk after you cross?\nBut I blame the presidents, gvernors and their government from not helping their people.

Stop helping the people that entering illegally . That will make them not come to America and they know they will get all the freebies that not even Americans can’t even get this is totally wrong and out of control!!!!

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

All US people here saying “Let’s help our citizens first” or “Turn them all back” well, for all those “digital nomads” from the US coming to Mexico we say the same thing, rents are going up exponentially and displacing the locals. You are not helping Mexico’s economy by spending your dollars here.

IT IS TIME TO STOP THE EXPLOITATION OF OUR WELFARE SYSTEM\nIT IS TIME TO SHOW AMERICAN PASSPORT TO BE CONSIDERED FOR WELFARE ASSISTANCE. \nALSO WELFARE ASSISTANCE SHOULD NOT LAST MORE THAN 3 YEARS ( excluding exceptions with people with disabilities)\nSOME AMERICANS HAVE FALLEN INTO HARD TIMES AND THE SYSTEM HAVE DENIED THEM ASSISTANCE \nWHY IS THIS PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT ENTRENCHED IN THE SYSTEM AGAINST AMERICANS? \nBLACKS DONT STAND A CHANCE TO GET HELP . RIGHT NOW ITS SO HARD - THE SPANISH SPEAKERS HAVE I FILTRATED THE WELFARE SYSTEM AND GETTING ALL THE ADVANTAGE. IT LIKE BEFORE YOU CAN GET ANY ASSISTANCE YOU MUST BE - SPANISH -A-PLUS\nTHIS TREND IS A RECIPE FOR CONFLICT

If people are asking for ducking help the government needs to ducking hel p fuck

The reason everyone wants to come to America is look how much money we throw away through the welfare and Medicaid systems alone to perfectly healthy people they don't even do welfare checks to see if they're getting our government is ignorant as the money they throw away through hard-earned tax payers dollars is ridiculous anybody could scan this government out of money it's not hard to get help in this country there's help everywhere you just got to know where to look for it here

How dare countries go to war, instead of fixing world problems?! People are growing more and more desperate and no help in sight.

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.

They come into the country and end up jobless and homeless. \n\nIf you come illegally without permission don't expect handout or help because there is already enough homeless people in this country.

DANGEROUS PEOPLE, DESPERATE PEOPLE DO DESPERATE THINGS.... THIS IS PAST RESPECTFUL TO OTHER COUNTRIES AND THEIR PEOPLE....\n\nbiden isn't helping and won't be any time soon...\nGet rid of biden !

Send them back why keep helping migrants when all these homeless Americans people. The government don’t put them in Motels or give them health care. Some migrants get free homes pay no rent or utilities I saw a article about it. There need to be stricter regulations and Americans people come first look at all those homeless families needing free housing and utilities and food. Every time you call a bank or somewhere you get a non-English speaking person and everything get all confused and messed up. Give Americans people their jobs back. Close the border every 5 or 10 years reopen for two weeks make them stay where ever they come from. Look how thaws Americans are getting killed in Mexico and look how they set there mattress on fire at the border detention center. Barricade all borders and if you come across any border crossing they be punished put them on the chain gang or something. Use force if needed .. !

The USA needs to help it's own people first, we need to worry about foreigners after.

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.

Calling it illegal and calling them migrants is systemically racist. These are mostly law abiding peaceful PEOPLE who are only going to benefit your country by sucking up tax dollars and helping crowd your children's classrooms..it's overall good for society. ( This statement has been fact checked to be true by thousands of people who voted for Biden)

Why aren't we helping these people?????? \n\nThey want jobs and a chance - that is all. \n\n*OPEN THE MOTHERFUCKING BORDER!! STOP BEING EAST GERMANY!!*

Omg that's not good each government should help there people first where is there government sad.

That's what racist White's say......(we need to help our homeless people first.) America doesn't give a shit about the homeless. This is corporate America. Corporations do not have compassion for the people it's all business, remember?!

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.

Stop voting Democrat we need to help our own people we’re drowning we can’t take anymore we’re drowning

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.

The US should do something to help Venezuela have a better government so that its people won’t be starving and wanting to come to the US. President Biden, please send back up for those border patrol officers.

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 ??‍♀️

Please Lord bless all of those people and provide for them and touch the heart of those who already blessed so they can bless other.. bless canada did helping them in jesus name. Amen

Send them all back home..we don’t need anymore of them here damn..how would they like it if a bunch of Americans try to go over there to get handed everything..free housing, free medical, free food, free loans for school and business etc..they need to be focusing helping the American people first with housing, medical, food etc..inflation is hurting everyone right now and even before that the pandemic..

We have to help our own people that are here in the US that are struggling before letting any new immigrants in!! I understand that people want to come to the US for freedom and for better jobs and a better life.... BUT OUR GOVERNMENT CAN BARELY HELP OUR OWN CITIZENS!! And If you want to come to the US the come here legally!!

Why don’t the government of USA help Mexico defeat bad people in Mexico so Mexicans can live happy life in there own country solve the problem

They helped build America, these are the kind of hard working people we need.

We should teach them how to build and sustain their land. \nAfter all we have the same resources. The politicians need to fix this by helping the people get what they need for themselves and their families. This shouldn’t be hard, traumatic or torturous for these beautiful people.

this is scary they nee to come downn is to many people that needa the help but men ?

sad to know usa spend like $$100 000 000 000$$ creating wars around the world and yet cant help its own people....

What are they hiding beneath this story what are they doing they want you to watch this story while they're doing something else All the people would have gathered together at once without help

Believe it not the U.S. and other countries are partly to blame for this, with the help of corrupt officials in these South American countries. Mexico has invested 100 million dollars in South America creating jobs and helping small businesses, so people have jobs and don’t have the need to leave their countries. Mexico ask the U.S. to at least match that amount and it refuse. You might argue that that’s not the United States problem, well it’s not Mexico’s either but everybody has to help. Especially when you are going down there opening mines and displacing farmers .

Thanks America. Why don't you want to help these people, & just passing them on to freeze to death

This isn’t the legal way to go. They figure Mexicans can band together and take on the borders. It’s so true, we can’t help the world. But it annoys me that people think they can come here , apply for social assistance on our money. You should see how badly want to come out to Canada. Where everything is free! No it’s not. Free for you but not the taxpayer. We’re feeding your families. While you have 6 kids on purpose to get a higher bonus. It’s sad.

We have enough crap to worry about in our on country without people trying to enter the country illegally. All these people should band together and take back their on country and deal with their own problems. It's not our fault or problem that y'alls country's are really messed up. Help yourselves and stop forcing y'alls crap on us Americans, we have enough to worry about without y'alls coming into our country. We have our own people and our on country to worry about.

It's ashame that their is borders to begin with, these people are coming because their nation is in trouble and they are literally no different then ones here already, if those was following the way of God they would offer them help rather then thinking only for themselves

Sadly most of these people want help and not work.

I know there’s people that need help but this just isn’t how it’s done. There’s a process and a reason for it. If your very first act is to break laws, you shouldn’t be here. Unfortunately there are women and especially children in the mix who really need help and protection but, as always, selfish men ruin it for everyone else.

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!!!!!

What’s happen to Mexica county? Why people running away from their Mexican country? Honest, our home America country are going down and not healing yet. Because our home America needs help and deal with it first. World knew America country going down and have problems right now.
