THEY DONT EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH AND THEY WANT TO BREAK INTO OUR COUNTRY! WE DONT WANT YOU HERE
Get out of our country you poor losers. Make a better life elsewhere. We have our own problems and we hate you parasites.
According to International law, migrants should seek asylum at their first port of entry so all this ain't and shouldn't be the US government's problem.
She didn’t translate what she was saying she only say what she wants to say
This migrant problem is from the Joe Biden administration. Now we got that closing down, got the military on the border. Finally, because there's a new hero in town. His name is Trump and people hate him that have to go back to the country. And they're not getting any free ride here in America. You need to come here like everybody else. Fill out paperwork and wait your turn, and if you think you're going to come here getting free money right away, thank you to happen
Stop calling them migrants –
Biden cracked down on the border during his election season. He undid Trump's border policy and had the nerve to try and reinstate it. Be honest, Biden/Harris administration ignored the border. If you gone "fact check," do it correctly.
Go back and make your country great.
Illegal is illegal, MASS DEPORTATION ASAP
This is sad, cuz on one hand it's easy to judge them, but on the other hand, if their countries were good, they wouldn't be there and they would immigrate legally. I wouldn't wish this on anyone
Min. 21:46_Unfortunately the mexican federal government doesn't have control over extortion & kidnappings. The state and local government must take care of those crimes, but the corruption tends to be in this part of the government. Organized crime and local authorities are the issue. The new 🇲🇽president is working hard to get rid of corruption but being realistic, it could take some time.
❤Thank you president Trump! ❤🇺🇸
You want in get vetted. Be legal.
its over….thanks to Trump….I dont like him…I dont support him…but in this regard he took the right decision to stop illegal entering into the US
The real question is about why Mexico let millions of people go from their southern border to their northern border illegally
I love my people all latinos. keep fighting
Or they could…. Stay in their country and work to make it better. They bring their problems wherever they go.
They feel america is there mother-in-law's home😂😂😂😂
There should be a strict law like north korea and UAE😊
Why dont they seek asylum in Mexico?
I think it's so disingenuous for Mexico's President to pretend that they care about humanity first, but refuse to answer their people on their entanglement with the cartels, and all the unaccompanied minors who have been trafficked into the US. These people are economic migrants. You mean to tell me that there is no other country on the globe where they can prosper? The American Dream is not a lie for those who enter following the legal process. No other country can afford to absorb the populations of multiple countries all at once. What's frustrating to many Americans is, it seems that we are expected to neglect our own in order to accommodate everyone else's 'American Dream ' – it's incredibly selfish. Out of all the interviews, I didn't hear one person speak about realizing their dreams in their home countries so they don't have to leave. What's ideal is these people either work to improve their native lands, or lobby their governments to improve diplomacy with the US – making the asylum process easier to begin while at home. This way, they won't have to sell their lives' possessions and make the long journey with no guarantees. We have multiple visas they could try for and yes, we already have a path to citizenship. We ARE a sovereign nation. You choosing to do it the wrong way because "Our process takes too long"- is not sufficient.
USA can not take care of everyone that does not belongs here we Americans can barely get help ourselves an we are tax payers they won't to get in cause they can get free health care food an housing us tax payers tired of taking care of these people ! They are not our problem all these illegal immigrants get into a problem the first thing they do is try to run to the USA .
I have no problem with immigration but the illegals have destroyed my state of California! My state of California went broke with them ! Enough is enough!!I am with president Trump
Mexico should have stopped them
Al Jazeera should do a documentary on the Indian slaves who built the World Cup stadium in Qatar 😂😂😂😂
In Mexico, Central, and South America, they have minerals and fertile land. Same as the USA. Yet, they nearly kiil themselves getting to the USA. Why would the USA want a country full of people who can't develop a similar place? Would not the same habits and culture decorate the USA?
Would not it be better to copy the USA than invade it?
And stay out.
Better there than here in America. This is the cause of the Biden/Harri s administration. Anyone who supports this is insane. We dont have unlimited, jibs, resources, or housing. We want these people out of our country
Thanks for President Trump and the Republicans they close the border and are deporting illegal immigrants.
I was not aware of it and I am taking a vacation in the next two months. Any advise!!!
Just curious Al Jazeera English "funded in whole or in part by the Quatari government", how many American Youtube channels " funded by the US govt" point how unwilling Quatar and ALL the other Arab coumtries refuse to accept even one Palestian refugee from the horrible war (that they started btw?)
Also i love how you break down how horrible the US govts app was for migrants to use. Trump took care of that his 1st week in office , problem solved !😊
U mean trump has that credit for help curving tge the ammout of illegals trying to enter the US
Debería haber sido la regla desde siempre. México se dedica al tráfico de personas, y enriquecieron y empoderaron a los cárteles al permitirles pasar sus drogas y personas a través de la frontera con Estados Unidos. ¡Todos los inmigrantes asesinados, abusados sexualmente y los niños traficados están en manos de México!
🤔👍💯
This was probably the most informative video about the immigration crisis i have ever seen the world's a cold cruel place God Bless All these people
Mexico is up to it's eye balls in business with China that's what all this is about it exactly like when cuba was doing business with Russia during the cold war
