Anyone want to make a comment about illegally crossing or legalities let’s remember that that land was stolen from that country and said because of different things marijuana this and that which it now has been legalized which they’ve been sectioned out of and the government is profit in billions off of so just think
Unacceptable.
“Believe the victims are migrants” hmmm no? They are illegal trespassers.
Nobody, and I mean no one likes George Stephanopoulos!
Biden cleaning up Trumps mess
i live in the area, it been 100+ for the past few weeks.
we are in level 3 drought conditions.
you step outside for a few seconds and your body is full of sweat, my AC struggles in the middle of the day.
it was 103 that day…
My people are not no dam immigrants rip My Familia
Thanks "President" Joe Biden, VP Kamala Harris, and Homeland Secretary Mayorkas.Just when you think this administration can't get any lower….
It's now 51 dead. Fucking sad. Did Kamala Harris ever go down to the border to address the border/immigration/human smuggling like she promised Lester Holt she would?
This is sad. Now big corporations will have to pay workers instead of paying immigrants lower wages.
Joe Biden ran on the platform he wanted open boarders when he was nominated at the DNC. During the debates, he said he wanted people to come here and have open borders. A total of 81,268,924 Americans, be they dead or alive, legal or illegal voted for this shitshow, so there is no one to blame but yourself.
Aye , stop coming over illegally
So sad. My goodness
The most criminal AND stupid people on earth..
Driver , "HEY! Jump into the BIG DARK TRUCK! We'll push and shove our way into the US so you don't have to do it LEGALLY!"
Shitbagbeener, " "Sounds like a Plan! A win win! In fact? Why not? WHY
FIX MY OWN COUNTRY AND MAKE IT LIVABLE WHEN I CAN OVERPOPULATE
SLUM AND DUMB DOWN THE USA????"
NO sympathy…F these nasty backwards ignorant superstitious corrupt people….
too bad they all don't end up this way
Nobody will care or even remember by tomorrow.
Sacrifice=46
How this tractor trailer was even able to cross the US Mexico border and secondly US custom and border protection inspection with very tight security.
for all the people bitching about open borders…..if the borders were so open why would they be smuggling these people?
Democrat voters and the Biden administration are covered in blood.
Imagine a child die in this condition break my heart … tragic for the adults too of course…
This is absolutely horrible 🙁
this is horrifying..
DISGUSTING! HORRIFIC! R.I.P in HEAVEN.
My condolences to their families. Horrifying event.
Kamala Harris is a mass murderer !!! Joe Biden is a mass murderer !!! WE ALL KNOW IT
This is the result of the biden administration’s and mayorkas’ willful negligence to secure the southern border. At least Gov. Abbott used air conditioned busses to transport them to biden’s doorstep.
whats a abandoned lorry doing in the middle of nowhere carrying migrants and plus where is the Driver???
CNN skipped this story. Don't want Joe looking like his policy is killing illegal aliens
This is on Biden with his open border policies!
My prayers to all that didn't survive this horrible tragedy. 🙏😭🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
46 people killed in a truck and trailer massacre…..better confiscate all truck and trailer rigs and ban assault trucks.
It's just sad how some people try to come in the United States to try to get a better opertunid for them and their families R.I.P for them that died
Ah yes the more condolences thoughts and prayers we send the more this issue will resolve itself, politicians are such a joke
Joe Biden and the democrats are responsible for this mess and their open border policies. Funny how when trump was in office everyone cared but now stuff like this happens and it's a little 20 sec clip on liberal fake news media. They woulda crucified trump if this happened under his watch.
corrupcion in tx and mexico
Thank you American banana company 😉 lol Just thank you! Wtf
They were criminals…ready to ruin our country…i think il pass with the condolences
48 dead..?? time to ban tractor trailers…..
That's so darn inhumane! I don't care if they're foreigners or not, they know the importance of having air and water for humans! Can't wait to find out who the smugglers are.
You shoukd research why all the internet media outlets do not bring this up. Even in a direct search it is suppressed. Why?
