WHY NOT CLOSE OUR BORDERS
Politicians pay should be taxed until this crisis is fixed. The people of the US have no say in the policy why should they have to pay for the lack of border law being upheld?
*_Hope & Change._*
Will not be voting for Biden
1500 troops to help the illegals get in the country , while taxpayers flip the bill ‘nice.
America is on the verge of destruction. No control on crime. Bleeding left heart policies on woke. Unable to control illegal immigrants. Out of control drug problems. US is going to go into anarchy
There will be a day when all will Bow Before Jesus there will be day when DEATH will be no more!!!!!!!!!!!! AMEN
Jesus is coming back soon be really good news
AMEN!
It’s to late for your racist Trump wall we already took over Trucking whearhousing and construction
Dude. You are a slave. The wall is to keep you in.
Democrats should be proud
Theres a reason Joe Bidens approval ratings are in the low 30%. I get that he would lose face with his far left base if he went back to Trumps border policies but at this point what has he got to lose? The majority of the democrat base already dislikes him.
I think many of them can be sent to Martha’s Vineyard or other areas that have vacant multimillion dollar, multistoried homes. Politicians should not pass legislation that enables people to cross the border without having the necessary facilities to accommodate them. That is nothing but a horrible tactic of using people to score political points or virtue signal.
I agree they can grow tomatoes and clean the wealthy lawns
Biden wants their votes.
ELECTRIC FENCES…..AND DEPORT
America is just a big labor camp. They will take on all the prisoners willing to come in.
Get them out of our country
We need to just get rid of border security high up his name is mayorka I think and replace him with a guy who cares for border security, we also need to replace Biden, but I don’t think that will be hard nobody wants him in office, and most likely be someone who the people wish to revive the economy and get the border security in check, which is evidently a republican and for good reason
ITS ALL A PLAN. PLEASE AMERICA WAKE TH UP
❤❤Welcome home
All these people want the American dream and the pursuit of happiness
Too bad they were sold a ticket and won’t be able to afford a $ 1,000,000 house In a getto somewhere
Thanks to the democrats we are facing this misery in usa sad for the residents thats lives in Texas their peace and safety is in great danger
SEND THEM BACK FIGHT FOR THEIR OWN COUNTRY
Bunch of young fighting men’s age an 8 yr old girl had 64 different DNA in her 🤬🤬🤬
Exactly
Starting to think this is a political move from the right. The exploitation. The sense of urgency and the finger pointing. Dirty politics.
That is because you are brain washed, so much so you can not even believe your yes, you must hear some left wing lunatic talk about It before thinking for yourself.
People HATE TRUMP… LOVE BIDEN…. TRUMP ALWAYS SPOKE ABOUT BORDERS AND BUILDING A WALL…….. SUFFER BIDEN VOTERS…..
Our country is going to fail We’re going to get poor they’re going to get richer because that’s what the Democrats want. They’re going to come in and get free housing food clothing it’s not fair. Our school system is going to be over run thanks Democrat people for destroying this country.
Send 1500 construction workers to finish that wall
This fool said the government should send 1,500 attorneys
Just have the buses ready to distribute them to all the states in the country. All states need to share in this problem- not just border states
Send then to ALL BLUE STATES!
ALL BLUE STATES THEY ARE THE ONES THAT VOTED FOR THIS! ISN’T IT WEIRD HOW THE SELECTIVE MEMORY WORKS WITH THE DEMONCRATS?
Open borders = sleeping on streets. What did you expect? A Luxury stay at Martha’s Vineyard and NY Hotels? BE REALISTIC FOR ONCE
Remember Joe’s Plan !! Invasion worst than ever !!! Stock up on ammo and weapons.
If the democrats won’t do something about the border keep busing the illegal immigrants to them since they claim they’re sanctuary cities. Don’t blame Texas for sharing what could’ve been prevented.
Democrats replacing the black vote with immigrants from other countries…lol. I cant believe anyone thinks the Biden administration gives a crap about poor people. We have 84,000 children missing from the system. Most will be sold like slaves. This is so wrong.
Brown and Catholics.. future conservatives. Let them all in. Now i understand why Abbott is sending them North. More Christians are needed in the north.
Where is the water cannon
Get this president and most democrats out of the gov asap. They are Destroyers
This is stupid, USA cant even help its own citizens but can help these people?!!!
It’s an invasion, nothing more. PRUGE.
Honestly you really wanna feel bad , but you think they would show some actual respect to the country. Bring enough food / water or be on the hunt for jobs to show they are trying to progress there life .. I get they have no where to live but to come to America and just sit on the side of the road and beg beg beg is just pathetic …
Our government is run by Marxist bootlickers.
Stop letting them in!!!!!! This has been going two years.
that’s good news
Send them back!! Why should we pay for this?
Send them back we do not owe them anything its a joke to them see the laugh on their face,, We Americans refuse to support these immigrants we are done make the Democrats support them
What’s the problem future doctors and engineers.
What a problem for the tax payers of the UNITED STATES and Jails!
What’s the big deal? This has been happening for Thousands of years world wide… nothing new😒
We will send them a to your neighborhood, address please!
You feed them, you house them!
@mack m what makes you think they’re not already here? It’s No biggie and Everybody’s life goes on and so will yours.
This is crazy what the f are we to do about 1000.s a day just let in the country This is not political ,, THIS IS A STRAIT UP INVASION.!!!!!!!
NO MORE FREE RIDE FOR ANYBODY !!! CLOSE THE BOARDER TO ALL MIGRATION ,
Why not send them to your house
LETS GO JOE BIDEN! WOOO. F THE USA!
Gracias Kamala.
this guys came here and claiming everything .
We went from a nearly controlled Southern border during Trump to Bidens complete failure starting day one through Executive orders that completely reversed all the Trump policies that were working. We need to either deport all these people or bus them to New York and Washington DC.
When Title 42 covid ends Title 8 the Immigration law of the land returns
Title 8 section includes:
– Restraints on who is admissible to the country or eligible for a visa;
– Criminal penalties for crossing the border without inspection, or for re-entering unlawfully after deportation;
– Expedited removal of migrants who are deemed inadmissible
Yes, if we had a DOJ that would actually prosecute but that’s not gonna happen!!!
@Erica Helton
EOIR courts prosecutes immigration deportation cases in 3 days under Title 8.
Trump & Republican have stock in private prisons.
Trumps Title 42 sent people to private prisons for 3 years at $28K per month ($1 million+ per year)
Another Republican scam
El Paso Texas got what they voted for which is Biden immigationn policies
The El Paso Mayor is a used car salesman who is in way over his head, and Vonica Escobar is a corrupt politician. The police chief that kept the city out of chaos passed away. El Paso property taxes keep going up but the citizens vote like democrat zealots.
Why not just shut it down and make them enforce the border law’s and continue title 42
Greg abbot keep get them buses ready load them shipping to Delaware NYC Chicago and the rest of the blue state BIDEN’S POLICIES LGB👏 open boarders baby!! World’s you’re invited 😂
Ok send them to Betty’s neighborhood. She’s for this
All in favor say I. “I”
Democrats will lose because of letting immigrants come to America this way. Its millions of Americans citizens is homeless and hungry and the american government Democrats taking care of immigrants first. The Republicans will win the president and the house and the senate. Instead of closing the border 100 percent and if anybody want to come to America fillout application and wait your turn.
And to think only 38K people have cared enough to watch this video with 1M ready to flood into our country after 6M already have with tens of millions more to follow. Hope you have fond memories of the former country you once knew cause it’s gone!!
America gets what if deserves we got to comfortable and let our nation be snatched away by O’Biden!
SEND THEY BUTTS BACK!!!!!!!!!
Do these people not know its illegal? Why do we let them in?
If you cant control this situation then may as well make use of of this huge labor pool. Send them to run down cities, provide basic services with a strong police presence and encourage a few dozen engineers, doctors, bankers etc watch them rebuild run down cities.
This has been ongoing since Biden took office and its just now news?
This is not immigration this is invasion and this is exactly what the Democratic party planned!
Trump 2024
Biden and his administration don’t care, ‘they’ the politicians don’t have to live near these areas and deal with this crisis. They still have their formal parties and gathering amount the old and wealthy in their comfy big houses behind fences and they sleep well at night. Trump had all his money and wealth before coming president and yet he was the one who closed our border and was fighting for us. He also was someone who told it like it was and didn’t have someone write a script for him to say or read things to the news media. Trump needs to come back!
If Biden deported a single individual that came across the border, he will be officially racist. Let tens of thousands come in per day and take it. Everyone needs to share their homes and their food. This is our new life now. At least this is better than trump. That racist sob treated people down there horribly only because he was racist and definitely not for boarder security. (Sarcasm)
U gotta be from Ukraine
This is a real life Twilight Zone….we are in it since the pandemic and likely entered into such a dismal downward spiral well before COVID.
Welcome to Biden open border…what a disaster they created it.
Let them live at the White House.
Big and small cities from Chicago to Portland to LA and Seattle are spending billions to manage homelessness. And at the core of the problem is fentanyl. 90 percent of fentanyl comes across the southern border, and it doesn’t walk across by itself. Illegal immigration just isn’t a Texas problem.
Ok, The first line of defense is the governor’s at the boarder, they DO NOT need permission to close their borders!! When the feds fail they CAN do it themselves!!! Why haven’t they?????
Shabbat Shalom Mayorkas. Thank you for your efforts in making Kalergi Plan, a complete success.
I was recently visiting El Paso and went Downtown for shopping, I did see a large group outside Sacred Heart Catholic Church which have always helped with the needs of those coming from the boarder. 🙏
No reason they can’t go to the non US side of the border and give aid. Not impressed.
But I thought there was no crisis at the border. You mean the MSM and Administration were wrong?
And the outbursts are only going to get worse as the mob increases. There is no way they’re going to walk into the American dream and they need to know that.
DON’T HELP THEM! Don’t feed them, don’t give them shelter, don’t give jobs, don’t give them medical attention, don’t give them money! They are not welcome! GO BACK AND FIX YOUR OWN COUNTRY AND STOP RUINING OURS!
Lol 🖐
Just send them to Delaware and Martha’s Vineyard again.
I’m here for all of this!!😂😂 I’m just going to smoke me a joint ! 💨💨🥂 and get ready for the bloodshed!😂😂😂😂
We make war so we can live in peace
Pinches mojados they just want the easy life.They want everything free ,food stamps,live free in hotels eat for free .
100million illegals will destroy the USA sovereignty, this is the Biden and the elites plan to destroy USA
Say what u want about Trump there was law and order. Sorry he hurt your feelings.
She said send 1500 social workers and lawyers. Are you kidding me this is wrong to have this many people break the laws and used resources that should go to American citizens
These are people that want to have a better life , It not a state of emergancy . This is a form of racism from the us regime.
Outrageous. What a mess. Tax dollars at work. Seal the borders and mean it.
The children being sent here have develop ment issues and mental disorders. The parents can’t get medical help for them in their own countries so they ship them here for the US to take care of them. If you have not witnessed the time and effort of resources needed for these children, go volunteer. We do not have the resources to tend to all the children’s needs. The you have adults who have PTSD from making the trip and suffering unimaginable situations that need counseling. They new the risks and they made the decision to come here, in to many numbers for any one country to absorb. Our vets first, our homeless need medical mental care first. We have laws that help people become citizens. Biden has broken the entire system. These poor people came based on incorrect information. And they saw the thousands marching as well and they figured they all would be okay when they got here. Surprise we can only do so much.
send them home, get rid of bidin. Time to fight this, time to impeach the entire cabinet. Perp walk them to prison along with anyone that supports them!!!!!
well, den voters made quite a mess. Why doesn’t biden extend title 42 just like trump did???
why not send 1500 at a time back to where they came from would be better!
Should’ve stayed home ! NO VACANCY! Shame on all of you wanting a expecting a free ride! Your not wanted NONE OF YOU from either side of the world go away
What they expect they got themselves in that situation, what they expect to be maintained over here? 😂
You want to round up the migrants? Easy fix, feed them Mc Donalds and Fried Chicken for a few months until they get nice and plumpy. Get them so fat that they won’t be able to run. Now you can easily round them up and send em back home well fed. Rinse and repeat.
Why aren’t the liberal residents of El Paso welcoming these poor migrants into their homes? HMMMMM I wonder why. Freaking Hypocrites. El Paso you voted for this, stop your whining. Accept it and love it.
Mayorkis stated today that the border is secure, and he is correct but not the US border
Glad you cover this BS. I called 311 to ask what the legal right of a peeping Tom(which legit happened today). My kid has been scared shitless of the man in the window. The 311 guy mocked me saying I drunk after telling him I am an operator and a BJJ blackbelt. But hey , I do not have to prove anything his poge B.But apparently my girlfriend and my kid with a peeping Tom can’t use force in El Paso Texas when I am away have to use min force. I would love to roll with the phone ninja I talked to. CONGRATS dems on your agenda! Thank you for making my home unsecure period.
Close the border right now and stop releasing the migrants to our streets while handing them with a mere asylum/ immigration court dates. 9 out of 10 of them will disqualify. Then, you’d really think that they would meekly obey the court order and leave our country voluntarily?
