Show this IN Congress, IN session and ON a big screen, and make Mr. Eyebrows watch it. Then ask him if it looks like the US border IS UNDER CONTROL.

I am not against immigration but the fact of the matter is this in this country aren’t going well even for its own citizens. Homelessness is up, inflation is up, unemployment, gas and groceries are up. The average American has to make a choice every month wether they get to feed their family or catch up on bills. We need to improve our infrastructure some cities are literally falling to pieces. We need to fix our country just like these folks need to do to their home country, running from the problem won’t fix it.

That is what they make flame throwers burn them up as they are sneaking into our country

This is really sad,but all these things are ?? Gouberment's faults by inviting them to come over if they have a sponsor,so now They'll come with or without it. People don't understand that We are struggling to make a living ourselves already here,Jesus!

Work hard and honestly and make your own countries better. Or migrate legally.

But why are they attacking? It's US policy, they are no one to protest against US politics. Being an Indian it makes me sad. Even we are facing huge illegal immigration problem as thousands of Bangladeshis are crossing borders illegally and affecting our elections.

It sure does seem like Joe Blow and Caramello Harris are actively trying to destroy this country. It makes me fn sick to see all the damage they've done!!!

America is going under and they want to come here to make sure we drown ! \nI think it’s time for the patriots to start

We need to take over both americas they all want to be here anyways let’s help them. We would end the whole illegal immigrant thing by making the whole world the United States. Give the people a vote. Watch the world be better.

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.

Sad thing is our current administration and the fed are turning us into Venezuela. Great reset. You who are unaware of our danger, you Trump haters, you who hate individual responsibility and liberty aare going to make our poor flee to Mexico and Canada.

I would say yake them in . But too many gangsters would take advantage and make crime higher its the sad truth.

I am all for Immigration, but it isn't unreasonable to expect an orderly process with background checks to make sure nobody dangerous enters the country. If they are forcing their way in like this, it impedes our ability to ensure that nobody in the crowd is a safety risk.\n\nOur system can be improved and remove inefficiencies to make it faster, but you can't just waltz in without any process of immigration, that isn't acceptable.

Rubber and bean bag bullets would make them turn around.

I'm sorry but do not let them in they have their own country there's not enought in American for Americans and foreigners......America is not the way make the best of your own lands

Canadian here, and this video is right on the money for some of the most frustrating things about Canada! \n\nOur proudest achievement is our healthcare system, but up until recently, the government has been choking it little by little. Making it so difficult for any Doctor/Nurse to even consider finding work here (and making it impossible to afford getting a medical degree) because you are literally doing it for the love of the game at this point. \n\nEven if you become a specialist in a specific field (which pays really well compared to most careers here) it is unlikely any hospital will hire you. Our hospitals are only interested in making profits by pushing painkillers on Canadians, rather than hiring medical professionals to help fix them. If you become a family Doctor, it is a bit better, because you can open your own practice. But kiss your social life goodbye if you do! The most annoying part of this problem is some people blame all this on the fact that we have healthcare and assume a private American system would be better. Where the real problem is we need more workers and funding into our healthcare to make it better. Not making lives harder for poorer Canadians!\n\nWeirdly enough our Tax system issue didn't stand out as a problem to me until I left Canada and see how taxes are marked elsewhere! It blew my mind that I didn't have to do math when I visited another country and the way we advertise wages is purposely deceptive! In Ontario, we succeeded in getting a $14 hour minimum wage (only in Ontario and maybe one other province). Which sounded amazing until you realize that's $14 without tax... To compare, I was incredibly lucky in Toronto where I found a place for 750 a month and was earning $16 an hour. Sounded like more than enough for the cost of living, but after taxes I was pretty much putting more than half my monthly income in rent. On top of that I had to pay for student loans and other bills. \n\nBottom line, if you are wanting to move to Canada for our beautifully scenic environments, free healthcare, and a stable job? \n\nMove to Finland.

Ya they need to put that energy into fighting for their own country and make it better... makes you really appreciate all the men who died fighting for our constitutional rights...

Tbh I'd probably try and break into America too if I was trapped in Tijuana. You know how scary of a place Tijuana is? It makes Detroit look like Beverly hills. Sorry Venezuelans, my thoughts are with you as you try to survive one of Mexico's worst cities.

I don’t know why they don’t use machine guns with rubber bullets tear gas everything it would take to repel these people to make them go backwards

Bro make it stop

The sad thing is that they try to make America the same as the country they just left.

They should make a lift bridge.

Need to fire their guns, make an example out of a few to send the message.

Look at these animals trying to invade— kick em out and use force to make sure it happens.

That's not how you make an impression to be allowed in the country. Do it legally like any other country and you'll be let in just make sure you aren't a piece of shit criminal or trafficker

What is the UN doing to implement stabilising countries so people don’t have to flee? It never seems to be about making all countries a place for citizens to be safe within.

Venezuela is a hell hole at the moment. \nNaturally, it makes the USA look like heaven no matter how messed up it currently is. \n\nAt least it still has a government and food.

You people voted in the communist government! All for getting free shit. And now you race to bust into our country. Are you going to vote for the leftest communist democrat party here as well for free shit! Tax payer and government printed money which lowers the value of our dollar, making it more and more impossible to survive. Which isn’t free. It’s designed to make people poor and dependent on government which wreck small businesses, create out of control inflation, send jobs overseas just so you need more free shit. Go home and fight for the freedom you gave away. We have enough trouble with our own leftest without adding more. I value my freedom more than free shit given out by the Leftest Communist Uber Rich Corporations that owns our leftest Democrat government and media. Go home and take your country back! Oh, what’s this? You say you can’t because you gave up your right to own fire arms. Now your government controlled police and army who don’t have to deal with hunger because that’s how leftest government works. First they get rid of the good cops and troops. So they can bring in thugs. And you all gave up your human rights to defend yourselves. You can’t fight with bare hands. Not against firearms. We can’t save you! Because you rushing in like this is exactly what leftest want. They didn’t lower the borders to help you. They did it to overburden us with humanity. So the communist left can crush freedom and turn us into another Venezuela. Americans, never give up your guns.

America… for the love of God please start protecting OUR OWN borders instead of worrying so much about other country’s borders around the world!! The left is so worried about being woke instead of taking care of the Americans who pay for all of it. I’ve busted my A$& all my life to work hard and am tired of spending billions of dollars on foreigners who just abuse our systems and get free money, phones, places to live, medical care, food, etc. and act like we owe them. It’s bad enough we have enough actual citizens who abuse the system because they are too lazy to work and care for themselves. I’ve always been one to care for others but this crap has gotten out of control and I’m done. It also makes the US look like a bunch of weak SUCKERS!!!

Build back better am I right and I hear they have an app for your phone now that makes it easier to walk right in?

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

If they behave like that, then they will not make decent citizens!!!

Use CS gas, rubber bullets, razorwire, and sonic weapons. Shoot anyone that makes it through. This is what happens when you're so soft on immigration that even the poorest people from 3rd world nations all over the world know they can beat you.

Where are the guns? few shots in the Air Make them think twice

Who do these people think they are? What gives thdm the right to demand anything? To charge at a border like that? Makes an absolute joke of every person who follows the law and legally migrates to the US.

Wow! CNN is showing something happening that makes Biden look bad. Someone is about to lose their job at CNN.

Listen to the reason.\nYou really think because there's land here that this country can support millions and millions of people at one time it will destroy what everybody is so violently try to get to. Their will be no jobs because there will be to many people, if there's very little money and way to many people they , us will have no money for rent there will be make shift cities just like the countries they are trying to get away from. This country will fall from to many people. Close the border let countries know there's no jobs build the wall

The saddest part of this video is they all trying to get into a country that is not free. Yall better off just making better choices in Mexico. The US is not doing so good right now.

Fuck this makes me want to be a border patrol agent for free, I’m all about better lives but let’s do it the correct way. We need people here that want to prosper and make a difference not moochers off the system but yet again it’s what liberals and democrats want so that the ignorant lazy people can keep voting for them.\nMAGA ??

Easy way to get it to stop is to stop giving away taxpayers money to supply, free housing, food, medical. And to have the local police arrest companies that hire them. Then make the owners of these companies pay yearly the rate of pay towards a fund for the local taxpayers

This is all intentional. If Trump was president, this wouldn't be happening. \nIf Biden can sign 17 executive orders on his first day as president, surely he could sign one to stop this. It's quite obvious he has no interest in doing it, which IMHO makes him a traitor to American people.

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!!!!?

The whole Native American argument is irrelevant. Hate to tell you but the borders have been set and the land has been tamed. Learn native history as well before you make the “did the natives say the Europeans were welcome here” because other tribes can make the same comments towards other tribes. Now that we are a country we have laws. We can’t be picking up the slack for other countries and taking on new immigrants while we can’t provide adequate affordable housing for our own people. Don’t tell me Americans are just selfish because the housing in this country is fked. Heck only a quarter of my graduating class has moved out of their parents because the rest of us are in school tryna seek better careers with more pay. Don’t tell me housing is affordable when the cheapest house in Sacramento was $300,000 and was a two bedroom burned house.

There governments need outing and new leaders to be elected to make jobs so the people don't need to do this

Labor Ready sites see gold. I work with the same people you see in the video and they get half the pay I get because they pay labor coyotes fees. Modern day Slave owners are making thousands at everyone’s expense.

Go back and Make Venezuela Great Again!

This makes me angry. Our President does not keep us safe. \nCongress needs to take action if the president doesn't. What's wrong with our country, enough of this talking, interviewing those in charge, Take action the USA is being invaded!

I have a fix to all this. Make every American that came from a legit system, and grand parents, and parents who came legally back 4 generations count only and offspring.. No Tno anchor babies allowed from anyone who came illegally past 4 generations, record department can validate all this. All natural born and maybe been legally also count. Ok, everyone mentioned get mandated to wear a tamper proof wristband linked to ownership and picked up from the DMV and the bands are electronically active for six months, if cut it sends a signal RFID signal for warranted arrest. Everyone with a band can go to work, shop, travel and it's only temporary for 6 months then gets legally removed. All illegals can register on the way out and need grabbed to cube back through the front door if they have no violent or theft charges or rape/assault felonies. Temp residents/work Visas get a band too. Bring in NATO and our military to start operation clean sweep, we offer bus rides back and ditched air flights back to what ever country you can't from, the sweep comes from N.S.E.W. circling in..if caught after having a chance to leave and didn't you will have a index finger on left hand cut off as a marker for being a invader to our homeland along with a RFID microchip embedded into the wrist bone, the chip will signal in the future if you even get with in 500 miles to border and all airports coming into America. Solar drones charge and patrol the border in drives 24/7. All who participated can get in line to come back as long as clean record mentioned prior. Finish the wall using 9 billion dollars we save each year by removing All illegal from our prisons and send them back chipped and marked by missing finger...THIS IS THE ONLY ONLY ONLY WAY TO EVER CLEAN AMERICA UP!!!!! MANDATE THIS A.S.A.P. This is the only thing that will every week and send the message to the world ? This is my idea!!! Have any better solutions, this will cost us nothing being we pay NATO anyways and military. I'm waiting...???

United states loves installing pro corporate puppet dictators in 3rd world countries as wellxas destablizing the nation through various policies. And then here comes intellectually lazy americans talking shit about these poor families trying to escape for the sake of their children and themselves?? You ppl really aint shit. You ppl hardly can name 5 ppl in charge of your local governments. But i bet you can recite all the names on your favorite foot ball team. Pathetic world we live in. Least you can do is make sure your leaders are held responsible for causing such destablization in south america. But nope ignorance is bliss. Its easier to be heartless towards the less fortunate. The have nots.

If Mexicans can't get in, wth makes u think yall can?
