I have to live in a hotel I am disabled father of 4 and can't get help.but yet they keep coming like we owe them something this is bullshit this is an evasion declare war. illegal entries is not welcome

I believe that our leaders want immigrants to pour into this country because they plan on switching places with them. Maybe they know something nobody else knows. Like if that volcano goes off the United States is gone but if you're in the southern continents you will survive with massive amounts of resources

Americans are supposed to take care of these people? We have enough homeless people in this country. It’s time the Biden Administration does something to stop this madness. ??????????????

Why dont they stay in their homeland and do something about their problems!!!. Instead of invading others' country

Need to start a 0 tolerance policy if you show up to the Mexico boarder looking to immigrate & you try something like this or brake the US laws to get here you will be permanently banned from entering forever.

You know what pisses me off? I'm 60 yo and all my life this has been an issue. 60 years! You wanna know why? Because if they fix it they have NO PLATFORM to get people riled up with promises of doing something about it...and then don't. And we keep voting for the promise.

We have such a porous border in Canada. Problem is Justin Trudeau and his pack of corrupt Liberals want more and more “refuges” not skilled....with an education coming into Canada. You see....people who vote Liberal are morons...the “free stuff” they get from the Liberals are paid for with more and more Liberal taxes. Liberal voters think Justin dips into a trust fund or something...yes Liberal voters are really that stupid....they don’t realize more Liberals mean more wasteful taxes. So Justin wants refugees...who he can put on welfare for their lives, become citizens, AND bring in dozens of their relatives to begin the process again....why because they vote Liberal in perpetuity. We are never going to break this cycle. Where is the line to emigrated to the United States.....oh, I’m educated with a masters degree. Not valued in Canada, because I was born here, and I’m white....I feel so ashamed!

Do something, Brandon!!!

WoW western world fucked^^ and if you say something they hate you and call you nazi... ahahah will be best future ever hahah

These S.A. governments aren't helping their people. Something is truly wrong down south and if it's not fixed, this will get worse.

Funny how US citizens bash their own country and complain about having to reside here. But last I check Americans aren’t committing these acts trying to stampede their way into other countries, so I guess we aren’t doing to bad. Something must be attractive about america that these liberals fail to understand.

This is America people. I am waiting to my aos over years and now im facing another backlog. If you are legal it’s really tough in United States to getting aos. But on the other hand they are so many people who crossed illegally got so much benefit besides aos thanks to tax payers including me. This country is completely broken system. I assume we doing something wrong maybe. The system is not working as used to be.

Something has to be done about this

Where is Auntie Kamala? Isn’t she supposed to be the Border Czar or something?

This is the first CNN Has reported something going on for two years. People who only watch CNN MSNBC are sheep to the narrative and have no idea what's happening. Joe Biden is intentionally using the Chinese playbook and is destroying the USA

They're screaming something sounds bad vary bad last of us bad

What’s making them do this is my question, there has to be something going on thats triggered this level of desperation from so many people.

Something has to be done its getting out of control! Oh wait our leaders love this more voters!!

Gives useless cops something to do instead of stalking citizens. Let them arrest and deport migrants all day

During the 1930's media in various countries made immigrants and asylum seekers out to be this horrible thing and demonised them. This came after a huge recession in 1923, the Wall Street crash, and the subsequent dramatic rise of far right parties in various countries, specifically Italy, then Germany and Spain. \nFast-forward to modern times. 2008 saw another global recession. Once again politics swung massively to the right with countries like Italy (once again), Hungary, Austria, Poland and Sweden, voting in right wing governments, France ending in a run off that narrowly defeated the far right, Belgium and Spain looking likely to be heading into heavily right wing governments at the next elections, whilst the US and UK governments both saw their politics swinging far further in that direction, especially the UK right now whilst led by an unelected leader who is demonising people in ways that would make Trump look soft. One of themajor rallying calls: immigration. The way media report on this becomes increasingly demeaning and hateful. During the 1930's much of the European media and even as far as the UK was ramping up the scorn against the ever increasing influx of Jewish immigrants coming from Germany. Even into 1944 there was a vast amount of demonisation of them seeking asylum, despite the knowledge by this point that there were horrific conditions in camps where extermination was becoming ever more apparent. The Nazi German government in 1936 passed laws that enabled them to revoke citizenship and stripped away laws on human rights. It would be great to say that these poor souls who were being demonised in their own country were accepted into nations who could see what was going on and who wanted to help, but that just wasn't the way it went. Media played out as it is now, leading to rejection and a greater number of deaths as a result of this. The way the UK government is currently working, it actually sounds like the maxi government of the mid 30's during the time of the Nürnberg laws. \n \nThe world feels far smaller now with double the amount of people and with things like social media playing a huge role in the lives of many. The ease of access to people around the world has made issues seem to stretch to far more countries now, whereas back then it was a time of empires. I get that there will be many here who support Trump, many who support Biden, there will be Brit's who support Sunak and the rather vicious words of Suella Braverman, whilst others will be more on the side of Starmer (I'm well aware of all the other parties but they don't stand to gain as much). There will be French people backing Macron, whilst others back Le Pen. We could go through each country all the way to the battle between Fujimori and Castillo in Perú, and the stories are much the same, but how will history judge us when people look back to this time? Will it be another occasion where we demonised those trying to escape the horror of the place they had the bad luck to be born in whilst we were luckier? \n\nI know there is hardship everywhere. I'm struggling more than most and I know I can't keep living this way. However, I don't want to be a part of history people look back at and say ‘if only they did something to help prevent this.’. I would rather be a part of history people look back upon and say; ‘that was a boring time period where nothing important happened’. It's already too late for that. Instead I try to remember that, though I was born into a family who never really wanted me, I was lucky enough to be born into a country that could support me during the hardest times. When you look at immigrants, remember that every one of us has immigrants in our family tree somewhere.

No problem here. The border is secure. Yep. Hey look, Trump just said something racist. Go look at orange man! Stop looking at the border or we’re going to take your cameras away for performing espionage.

How to start preparing. \n\nTake three days during the work week and turn off your electric and water. Make do with what you can and write down things you needed and didn't have or tasks that were difficult. After you have this list, research alternatives\nEat, wear and consume cheaper. Choose cheaper meals to create room in your grocery budget to put back food. Wear second hand clothes or put a spending freeze on clothes shopping in order to make room to buy what you'll need for the future (especially if you have small children who grow frequently). Consume less electricity, gas, propane by finding alternatives. This may mean using a crock pot, hang drying clothes, using candles at night and opening windows for sunshine during the day etc. With the wiggle room you've created in those bills you now have some money to buy more food storage, medical supplies or invest in a small solar unit. \nMake an edc bag. This is something you will carry all the time (on your person or in your car) that could provide you with what you and your family need for 3 nights. Think about what you may put into an overnight bag if you were to stay at a hotel. This will ensure even if something happens and you're out you're able to shelter in place \nUnderstand how to take care of medical emergencies at home. Remember that in a major event, ems could be down or unavailable for sometime. While this is never the first line of defense in an emergency, understanding how to manage medical emergencies (high infections, deep wounds, pneumonia, asthma attacks, shock, 2nd and 3rd degree burns, poisoning, radiation sickness, torn ligaments, allergic reactions, excessive bleeding) while you wait on help can be life and death. \n Food, water, temperature control are your highest priorities. If faced with a major event where services are limited for more than 3 days, having stored food as well as a way to cook, a way to filter and store water, and a way to keep yourself cool or warm can be life altering. \n\nPlease remember as we are entering or for some of us are already in uncertain times, having this foundation gives security as well as lowers stress. It allows us to feel more in control and gain a more positive perspective on not only our lives but the world. I'm willing to answer any questions from my own experience in the comments if you feel overwhelmed!

The same people saying that they should start a revolution in their own country forget that the US government was the one that started the problems in those countries in the 20th century, with all the CIA-aided coups and far-right military dictatorships. One must also not forget the problems that the United Fruit Company brought to Central America. If anything, the US should embrace these people with open arms. There always will be housing. If the US stopped zoning every square inch of its land as solely single family housing, we could solve the housing crisis and accommodate a lot more people, Americans and immigrants included. That being said, the federal government needs to allocate more resources to allow these people to enter in a proper manner, something which Biden certainly hasn’t done. This is the land of opportunity, people seem to forget that. I bet the coming of thousands of people into Ellis Island in the past two centuries wasn’t labeled as an ‘invasion’.

This is so sad! Our economy itself here in the US is going downhill. We cant afford to house more illegal immigrants. Something needs to be done to help control this illegal immigration that were facing in our border.

my number 1 issue when i went on vacation was the food, like my gosh, I couldn't even drink the milk of how much fat it had, like, it was crazy! beagles were very sweet (which I actually liked BUT I cannot eat that everyday), it's just too much unbalance, and I was like 16... I wasn't a picky eater, so for me it was a big shock, I didn't have a healthy meal once that whole month I was there, and I was staying at my mom's friend with my mom, so it's not like I was at a hotel or something, they didn't sit down to have a family meal or cook home meal stuff for the kids even, it was just a big culture shock overall, and I personally did not rly enjoy it. When I went to visit my family in New Bedford, was pretty much the same thing, the food tasted super different, simple lettuce just didnt taste good, I mean this is my experience ofc, but the struggle with food taste was real xD

I already knew that Canada would win this dispute, even more with regard to access to firearms, which (as it was provenin this last shooting at an American school), facilitating access to firearms for citizens, is something very dangerous for a country.

I feel for these people. By accident of birth, they are in a very unfavorable position and trying to seek out something better. In the end, we just try to survive and I'd do the same legally or illegally in their shoes. At the same time, we have to secure our border because we are also trying to survive and our economy just can't take it.

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.

So we’ll shoot American people from running from cops, but we won’t shoot illegals from attempting to raid our country. Something is backwards here.

something about this wreaks of being staged

Thank the current administration for the open borders and lawlessness about illegal immigration. But hey bumble biden said something about corn pop, and other incoherent comments and he got voted in.

Atleast they are finally doing something. This video is good

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

no there's something going on over there and it's coming out of the ground and they all know it's there it's been there for and it's been there for centuries and they know it's coming that's why they're saying please help me

But y’all keep going after Trump. It’s like the left is working for China or something

May I suggest something belt fed

Border patrol agent start shooting at something, were being invaded

Didn't NOBODY bring something to cut the wire?

Good. Go through the proper channels and bring something of value to the country or no entry. Folk without those 2 things that are already here should be removed.

When something like this happens, it’s a distraction somewhere else along the border where there’s less attention they’re moving something crazy across the border.

Population dynamics, we need the immigrants more than they need us. We don't have enough 20-30 somethings to make enough babies to support the retires via Medicare / Medicaid / Social Security

The only question that I have is if any of these people were to do this to any other country at their border what would be their course of action. I would assume that something like that would get people killed. There are armed guards at the border for a reason. No other person or any other country should feel they have the right to storm the borders of another country like that with impunity

When my father's parents immigrated to the USA he had just turned 9 years of age. My grandfather was a gynecological physician and an anesthesiologist. Grandpa had something to offer USA for that citizenship. \n\nBut these Venezolanos are trying to escape the tyranny which is their government. It is a difficult situation for them and for USA. \n\nPerhaps a solution might be helping to identify better places for them to go? USA is about to crash, the US dollar is about to follow Venezuela in demise. They might not enjoy going through similar here in USA. ?‍♀️

Please! Stop this madness. We have already lost who we were as a nation. What will our United States look like if we have to wait for a new President? Who is in charge and why isn’t something being done about this horrific border?

This show how all official ls in every place of government is no government that help it's ppl they dump n push them to other lands n some one set this up to happen to distract something else going on now I'm not sure what but it's a distraction

Their government needs to get their act together to make it a better place for them over in their own country. There is no way your people should have to flee their own countries to find whatever in another. Come on governments around the world and in America Step up actually do something useful and stop taking bribes and winking your eyes at wrong doings.

You think that something look at your job,the American way is depleting\n...,Trump 2024 mass deportations

Hell yea about time they do something to stop them from coming in I don’t feel sorry for them at all go back to your own country and fix that shit instead of coming to ours and ruining it for us all

This is horrible!! We need to do something about this

If they claimed that they are Venezuelans but how they got into Mexico at first place something is fishy don’t let them in the USA the USA has too many problems already homeless ,jobless and social problems such as drug addiction and mental health issues the USA needs skill workers to build up the great and magnificent country ???
