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.

Let’s get one thing straight, CNN was recently bought by a conservative owner. If I remember correctly. Not to mentioned this is from mainstream media. Not as bad a faux news which is worst, but mainstream media nonetheless. I wouldn’t take this clip or YouTube short to heart.

This is an invading army and should be delt with that way. Biden has screwed our country up bad. It's going to take years to get back on track. Democrats are evil

Send them to the middle East, this is bidumbs America,, and he's not enforcing the law's of the constitution,,,Get Bidumb and his crew gone, and investigate later,,,WE CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE,, SHITS HITTING THE FAN, AND I HATE TO SEE THE OUTCOME....

Getting YouTube view is the new business model... each country has problem.. but I take Canada over any country in the World.. I guess that why you are here too.

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

You know what, I’m an immigrant too. I came to America in 1988 from a communist country to have a better life and have religious freedom. But it took us more than 5 years, if not more, to get approved and jump every hurdle, every flaming hoop, and else they asked us to do, BUT, WE DID IT! Why do people think it’s ok to be able to come here illegally when others have to Jump through hoops to get here? And the stupid fucks who think they should be allowed to do that shit, should be made to put em up in THEIR HOMES AND NOT ON THE TAXPAYERS DOLLAR! Period point blank!!!! A country without rules will fall into anarchy. So many people do shit the right way, why do others think it’s ok to say fuck it and became a burden on the economy? Everywhere around the world, there are borders in place, and they’re there for a reason, to keep order, and to prevent illegal entry. Nobody’s saying not to come here, or that you’re not welcome or wanted here. But you have to do it the right way. Millions of people had to do it like that, by the books, the right way, you don’t get a free pass to come here illegally cause it’s hard, or it takes a long time. You’re not the first person to go through this hardship.

They should take care of there country's strouggle and get it correct rather than lazy in our country when we can't fix ourselves????????

Oh hell no wtf but our president is more interested in getting on the news minutes later after a tragedy and try to take guns where is he now?

Tables turns, how would they feel if we were to intrude this way in their country?? ????? \nI don’t think they would appreciate, allow and will intervene if necessary to prevent this situation from occurring. \nHowever they feel that the government should take them into consideration when trying to get a visa and becoming citizens.\nThis is exactly what you don’t do, goes to show how much they REALLY want to be in our country. If they only knew they’d be busting their behinds a lot lot more due to their immigration status and way less pay plus the list of benefits of being harassed, abused ext. ????\nThe imigrants not knowing the real truth of our country ????\nGets me every time ??☺️

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.

This is absolutely disgusting and just plain barbaric why the heck we want these types of deranged people over here we really have enough of our own that we can barely handle and take care of.\n\nAnd then they go on to complain about what a s***** country this is and burn up our flag not want to stand up for the national anthem Etc yet are so desperate to get there behinds over here! \n\nWhy not try to work on your own country make it be what you want it to be because if you think you're going to come over here to change our country to fit your standards or your type of mindset sorry that's not going to happen because otherwise we'd have the same type of Chaos you guys are trying to escape from... supposedly...

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.

I know they're looking for a better life but what exactly is it that they're hoping to get after they get here? Say 10% of them have family in the country that if they get to them, they can then be fed, clothed, and sheltered.\nOk so now the other 90% come across both illegally and in this case aggressively feeling entitled but without any resources of their own.\nAgain the question is what are they expecting to receive in the way of assistance once they're inside the U.S.?\nSection 8 hud housing has enough problems finding housing for low income housing insecure Americans. The public Healthcare system is completely maxed out as it is! U S. Department of Agriculture has instituted EBT cuts in many places and warn of future funding shortfalls!\nI'm a leftie, a definite progressive Democrat and agree with absolutely nothing as regards any GOP policies, save this!\n\nAgain, what exactly is it that these folks are expecting to be provided to them by the government of a foreign country when the U.S. Can't take care of its own people at this point?\nI'm sorry but there are previously earned just entitlements and there is the earned nothing entitlist attitude!\n\nYou will give to me because I demand it!

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

These people need to get ahold of their own country they need to make their own countries better instead of doing this bs runnin away to America. They have the balls to do this but not to revolt and take control of their own corrupt countries i have no sympathy for them

My parents came illegally but became citizens thru the amnesty from Bill Epstein i mean Clinton, i was born here in California, even though i love my Mexican heritage i still think this is wrong, we need more border control but we also need to be able to make it easier for the good people to come here legally. Donald trump was not racist he was speaking the truth alot of these immigrants are bringing drugs over alot of them are bad people who will cause alot of problems over here for us thats why we need a screening process but a better one than we have now because the one we have now is very expensive and takes way too long, we could use the extra labor from people who want to come and actually work. There’s also more Chinese immigrants than mexican so we need to get a hold of that too , but these Central Americans trying to come in the country alot of them are gang members and most of them are poor and have no resources so when they get here they will become gang members and cause problems because they have no structure and thats all they know. They really need to do something about this. This is disgusting, this is not the right way trying to barge your way into our country is not the way to go

Go back! They're all gay,trans, God hating baby killers here\nAnd they fight for their right to do so because some imaginary man told, them they couldn't?? Not sure but, Go Back!!\nThe butt pirates are taking arms that they are also petitioning to get rid of because of gun violence! I guess??\nYea I know I'm just as confused\nGo Back!!\nDon't expect them to make sense in fact they ain't good at making anything but mistakes then blame the republicans lol\nPoor fools don't know they chase their own tails????

They were paid to come here, democratic backers need the crisis. Like they always teach, never let a crisis go to waste, and always create a crisis if you can't find one. Soros and his cronies paid for bussing them before, he is known for taking down countries. This isn't a shock to anyone who has been watching and it will get worse. Buss every illegal to Washington and all democratic states. Keep the busses running.

I feel bad for the immigrants who are able to get into America. They have no idea that America is about to be judged by God with plagues, bank failure, civil war and martial law, food and water shortages, tyrannical government, mushroom clouds and invasion, earthquakes that cause California to go into the sea. Tsunami waves that will submerge west and east coast. Watch, they will leave and go back to their country once these things take place and Americans will start fleeing to Mexico instead.

Fighting for freedom is protecting our freedom we will not be free if we are overran if they overrun that border every other country will overrun all the borders that’s why we are America that’s why Mexico so fucked up no rules take no put him back get rid of the cartels problem solved

idk about you guys but that is not the kind of people i would even want in my country. my parents immigrated too but never expected hand outs nor did they ever recieve financial aide of any kind. why give our taxpayer dollars to these people when we are not even taking care of our own people? people that they themselves have paid into the system. i have also worked with them and its been the worst experience. they dont want to do the work right and get offended when you try to coach them. they show up to work to recieve a check but dont come to work to work. they are people that just expect things to be given to them because thats how it used to be when venezuela was rich off oil. its sad that this is how they represent their people

Illegal immigrants are the worst! Take care of yourselves and your own country and citizens wether you're from Mexico, to Central or South America regardless the USA doesn't owe you anything whatsoever! They're only doing it, because they know they'll get away with it knowing that Biden's administration welcomes these bastards to do it and get away with it! The Biden administration wants literally wants chaos here in the USA! The Biden administration literally wants the USA citizens to be attacked and for them to have a real war against them for their crooked Government side! They're LYING if they tell you anything else! Any real good true American President wouldn't allow such despicable trash to even so much as to getting close to a breach in the USA borders anywhere! You try to cross with the old School Presidents, you'd be in your casket for absolute certain ?????

I feel sorry for these people but at the same time they’re country’s need to get there fucking act together. This war torn 3rd world crap can go on no longer. People call the u.s the u.k etc war mongers? Well take a look at this right now. We have tried over the years to put your country’s straight but you didn’t want that help. Same here in the uk we get flooded with Africans and Middle Easterns. Change your country’s and turn them into democracy’s ! Get rid of your backwards medieval ways and maybe your country’s might be atleast better and safe places to live.

We should jus get it over with & make Mexico the 51st state of America. Right after taking out the cartel’s the Mexican military & their government. They are all in bed together anyway. Then we can have a mass migration south & not worry about getting taken advantage of. Jus a thought ?

Born and raised in the USA and I am homeless wtf are these people thinking they gonna come hear and take what little we have left or are they going to get the Dream package from joe Biden . FJB.

I’m sorry no, enough immigrants coming here illegally. No. They need to get it the legal way like everyone else. And there needs to be cap of how many we take yearly even than. It’s getting crazy for the people who live here to even get resources as Americans because of all these people. Yes, unfortunately Americans need to come first.

What if the boarder guard start to shoot , then what ! Can’t try to over run and bombard people in their own country and if they over power the guards they can take their weapons, that definitely is not a good look ! There is a process that people have to follow and if the guard doesn’t stop them , then when would it stop because news travel fast and every other immigrants will head to that part of the boarder and rush in , can’t have all those people who have not been ID running a muck in the country because that would break down every day security because some of those people are criminals and others will turn into criminals just to be able to survive ! That is organized and orchestrated by the Republicans to embarrass , Biden government, that just showed that most republicans are not really patriots, they will break down the fiber of this country just to get their point across , they are using immigration to turn the American people against Biden government ! All that is happening because of Trump indictment ! Hmm ?

I'm getting my guns ready! Shit... I ain't playen around. Fuck with me and my family and find out! I already know what they've been doing in south Texas on people's ranches..... I'm not taking any chances! I'm just a drive away from the border.

Wtf hell nahhhh get the hell out of here if we tried that crap to Venezuela, any other country, America’s will be detained and placed in prison who do they think they are all these migrants coming over here, rushing into our United States like if all of us want to work to take care of them get the heck out of here with that craziness!!!! if we try to run into another country, that shit is dead I don’t see why we don’t do the same thing we don’t got the money and the taxes to be paying to put these people in prison…nor do we want them here. \nMigration is the Trojan horse in America that’s what’s going on they trying to overpopulate us and distinguish our finances to kill our country and our economy

This is so wrong, disgusting, and sad on so many different levels man ..what the fuck is the world come too...these people can't even survive in their own countries so they try to come to ours...mean while ..ours has been going down the toilet more and faster then people know or realize...addings hundreds of thousands of more broke immigrants is just going to make it worse and harder on every single American and their families, regardless of race .. because guess where the money comes from to pay for these people when we can barely get by as it is? Yup out of our pockets...keep making the broke broker your sick ass people...we are all doomed ..we need trump and we need him now ..we need actual changes...this is not it...they need to take some of our money and put it into better border security and protection for the love of our people and country...and y'all are just letting it go to hell..

The gughvmnt will take ur kids and they will mysteriously disappear like the 3000 lost a few year ago from concentration camps in San Diego ams south west. Stay in Mexico or get ur kids sacrificed or Baal. Humans ??

My best friend started her immigration process in 2017. She was finally green lit to come to America in 2019 after marrying her long time husband over in Europe and then getting the paperwork done here in the US during that time Covid hit, and when they closed all the borders, they stopped all of the immigration process to America meaning that she was stuck in Europe away from her husband for three years. Finally last year after making her go back through the process getting all of her paperwork re-done, paying another $5000 she was able to come to the US just last month she got the start of her paperwork for her green card to work here in the US and become a full US citizen. It’s been a long process. It infuriates me that people like that who are honest, hard-working people who want to come to the US and start a life after being married, proven to have jobs and want to pay taxes and support a system. That’s willing to take them in get held up because of people like this want to come here illegally Big cause of whatever the reasons are trying to circumvent and skip over the people who are trying their hardest to do it the right way in the first place, dust dragging the system further down.

For those of us who were born here this sucks to see because we don’t get help here as it is and they’re only taking more resources away by doing this and people coming in like this. Takes from both the adults and our children

America needs to tell them all no U can't come into the United States because houseing,food, clothing isn't free. Nothing is free in the United States for you or us America's. + No U can't enter the United States no more for at least for the next 20 years from this year. Because U leave ur county to enter the United States and you 's don't ever change ur life. U all bring your tough guys problem's or U help ur people bring in drug into the United States. + When U R here in the United States U don't learn to stop specking Spanish at all & learn to speak English language all the time. We continue to let you's become American's but U don't become American's as a republican. Stop bringing ur bullshit problem with U. Leave all of ur bullshit problem in ur county. When U enter the United States U should have to stop teaching ur kid's to speak Spanish if ur Americans now. And none of you's are aloud to have any kids with any women in the United States until u become a American citizen. It should also take you's all 5 or 10 years to become Americans in the United States. Cause you's all are coming to the United States and ever time U don't like how ower law here. U keep on trying 2 change ower United States law's for you. No get the fuck out. We are Americans and we R tired of you people coming here trying 2 make it because some Spanish place like ur county. And No this is America if U don't like ower law's then get the FUCK OUT ur not welcome enter and u will be shot. U want ur county to become more like america then you people of ur county need to fight against ur drug cartel's and ur government and fight off the evil people in ur county.

This is the thing guys we are have the highest inflation ever in at least five decades, we have poor American citizens living on the streets homeless and with no food, we are going into the biggest recession in united states of America has ever seen since 2008, we have the highest interest rates in many years that we have ever seen and a lot of people are going to lose their jobs in the next at least 18 months, we have the worse health care system and people are getting sick and dying. \nTimes have changed unfortunately and this is year 2023, not 500 or 300 or 100 or even 50 years ago and there is no comparison.\nWe need to close our borders and take care of our own united states of America citizen first.\nLet's stop sending trillions of dollars in cash to other foreign countries like Ukraine and letting people illegally in our country. ?

Get out get out get out. God come back home please. Terrorists are taking over YOUR LAND!!!! They are nasty disgusting weak, they act like America is there's that they belong here and they dont. ITS NOT YALLS. YALL NEED TO BE SOS...

Hate to be like that but dammit,they have no respect for this country so they are doing whatever to get in..We have to take our gloves off and handle this shit man..

We got to take care of our actual American citizens first. If they want open borders then let american take control of these country's. We could make South America the production capitol of the world. They get free access to usa and we get stuff made there for cheap instead of supporting fucking china. Could boost there economy and build there nations up so future generations don't have to come to America. But no they just want to come be a strain on our systems without any long term plan for the future. Wow. Smh the whole American continent could be basically self sufficient. Never gona happen though. To much division.

Canada is soo weird. University students who spend 100k+ on education and are in the Canadian system are having problems getting residency, whereas shady people who get here illegally or get residency by immoral do it without much problem. I mean not even illegals but some south asians who are literally scamming and exploiting the system, have no problem and then when you take people from very low income class enter your country and who do uncivilized things you are astonished what else you are expecting a lot of them are uneducated who are not civilized, make your screening process better, if you want immigrants due to labour shortages and slow population increase, try to incorporate students and potential people who have more chances to fit your society. This trend will lead to an anti-immigrant narrative. We have seen a similar trend in Europe. They took the worst people in who were problematic in their countries to begin with

Desperate people do desperate things, and may take absurd risks out of fear. These people, PEOPLE, are likely terrified of what happens to them in the lawless cartel-controlled border areas... Scenes like this that demonstrate such desperation break my heart. \n\nI don't think anyone watching this would do anything different if their choice was between trying to escape exploitation, robbery, rape, and murder, and getting arrested by Americans who will, at least, respect their human rights (mostly).\n\nDo people really think that any significant proportion of these poor, dispossessed, desperate people, and their children, are criminals trying to infiltrate and take advantage of the US, rather than hoping and praying for a place to live, a decent job, basic dignity, and some safety and human rights?\n\nBut, y'know, let's be honest. There are a lot of Americans that only see brown people 'invading' 'our land'... I wonder how Native Americans feel about this, eh? (Seriously, I'd like to know... Anyone?)

They just fucking taking in everyone, when will we get a President that understands that they are NOT entitled to entry.

Thank you democratic party. The democratic party has aloud this to happen. I say round them all up and send them back. Let them do it the right way not just run in and go on welfare and get free housing and health care. We can't take care of our own people how can we take care of millions of illegal immigrants? Just asking and saying

Damn I mean I get it but we can't even afford ourselves rn and yall take it all?

As a Hispanic, I agree with many of the comments here, these people should come legally first to take them in and so they have an easier life when they get here. But American has so many homeless people to take care of first, how can we take care of others if we have to take care of ourselves first?

Get a gatling gun that should take care of about 99% of this problem an m4 would finnish the remaining1%

Canada actually has a stricter policy on refugees than the US. Although detention of asylum seekers is provided for under Canadian law, the criteria for its use appear to be tighter than in the US. In 2017(one year after Trump's administration), Canada had 6251 immigration detainees 2017 compared with 323,591 held by the United States that same year. And the US has insanely more cases of refugees than Canada. Canada's immigration policy has a preference for economic benefits, and the approval criteria for refugee claims are stricter too. Take a look at the Express Entry Programme. Most of the applicants have to get a master's degree to be granted a PR in Canada, but the US is more favourable on Family reunions or Refugees. Although Canada has its own problems, such as housing issues and a healthcare system that might worsen by increasing immigrants, in general, I think the US should learn something more on Canada's immigration policy which is on a talent basis.

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.

Juarez of all places… God please bless all of your people. Jesus I beg you for their protection while there, they have no idea how worse off they are in Juarez. People, mi gente it’s no joke. Take Juarez and all of the horrific stories that you have been told about that place and run, hide, do something or else, they will get you no joke. There trying to stay alive an healthy and safe. That’s their battle all day long. Alive an they NEED FOOD

Let them in or take over their government and get Mexico in order
