  1. Im sure glad my city aint got ellis island. Its their motto in NYC enabling a century and a half of cheap labor under the guise of welcoming broke immigrants with secret pasts, now they have to compete with the rest of usa, and they cant take it back.

  2. Vote Republican or lose America!!!!!!!

  3. Democrat communist have flooded your city/schools with illegals that carry 3rd world diseases. now, your children will get inferior education with flooded classrooms of illegals and bring diseases back home.

  4. Also happening is the same thing that happened during the Mariel Boat Lift when Castro was clearing out all his prisons and asylums (anything costing him money) by sending what's in them here. It's the exact same thing these countries south of us are doing. Notice the skyrocketing crime? Businesses being forced to close because they can't afford the loss of profits from shoplifting. And not just small businesses but even Walmart, Walgreens and Rite Aid as well.

  5. This is a big consequence of 50 years of Rowe vs Wade abortion in America.. 100 million Americans are missing from the American workforce due to abortion. This void is being filled by 3rd world people. This great replacement was all planned.

  6. Too tough a problem. The solution lies on geopolitics and geoeconomics. More and better development of underdeveloped countries…

  7. WOW the kids in school are more immigrants then them due to their bloodline hope the teacher teaches them how they are pilgrims that weren't born here and didn't come here with papers

    AM PROUD TO BE A NATIVE 💙💙

  8. 4 years and turned the country into a 3rd world nation.

  9. Proof covid shut down was a scam.

  10. They are attracting the immigrants, to over-bill the city with expensive immigration 'contracts'. There was no problem under DeBlasio-Biden but under Adams-Biden the city gets overwhelmed? Adams has emptied the coffers on these 'contracts'. Yet immigrants are getting horrible services. I live a block from a place they put them in NYC – they seem to get the worst services. The place looks unsanitary and inhospitable. All the immigrants stand or sit on the street and look depressed. My question is why is Adams paying out billions for these horrible immigration 'contracts' and who is getting the contracts? For instance, has his right-hand man Frank Carone gotten any 'contracts'?

  11. Vamos a cruzar la frontera y votar por GOP.

  12. You know why North Korea and South Korea won't reunite? Because it will turn Korea into a poor third world country once it assimilates poverty into their population. In a way, that's what America is doing, assimilating poverty not immigrants.

  13. That's 7 per class. And they will get all the attention.

  14. That's why we should say sorry country is full

  15. Anti American politicians 99% Democrats

  16. How is this fair to the other children? Have them learn English before attending public schools.

  17. So glad i left to a state that represents my vote bc i didnt vote for this!

  18. This is what democrats do lllconvince stupid ppl to vote for them …then spend everyones money.

  19. You ppl dont get it, this is done on on purpose, to dilute you, to minimize you ….to strip you of your rights under the guise of you being racist and offensive. They are doing this to oppress and segregate the american ppl.

  20. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
    WE LOVE YOU JOEY BIDEN!
    😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  21. It’s sad that immigrants put their children through this journey. Poor kids are gonna be so lost in school

  22. This is a stupid question but why are they just allowed to assimilate like that? Can’t the feds expedite the asylum request process?

  23. *YOU. GET. WHAT. YOU. VOTED. FOR.*

  24. Remember to give a big thank you kiss to all the fake news media and demoncrats who made this happen.

  25. The migrant issue will lose democratic votes the same way abortion has lost republican votes. And an interesting cross section of this will be the number of migrants who give birth in their first year in the states with no access to reproductive care whatsoever

  26. Mandates for vaccinations for citizens but not for illegals?? Exposing American children to unknown diseases/variants that they may have no immunities for – this is child abuse!! Chaos in school system unacceptable!! Feel badly for teachers. NY's political leaders have caused this!! Vote them out.😡😡

  27. Send more ! Get them out of the SOUTH !!!!

  28. THEY ARE NOT ASYLUM SEEKERS

    They are illegal aliens who want money.

  29. This is backwards per usual.. like everything present day. I don’t think these toddlers- teens have even been going to a PEDIATRICIAN all their lives.. Of course they’ve seen doctors when they get sick, I’m sure.🤔 Anyway, are they TRYING to make US🇺🇸children CATCH Diseases!? Is this yet another Pop-Control method?😳 Wiping out our people? Nah of course not.🤫

    Anyway, I’m almost certain that these 1000’s of kids belong to the many people who’ve been already noted bringing in Tuberculosis, measles syphillis .. etc etc.😳 You know one of our US🇺🇸students is (hopefully not) bound to contract something. This is absolutely insane.

  30. these kids come with lack of education most of them and do not come here to go to school…they refused to do so back home…they came to get money and send back to their countries…free money. They put kids that are 16-17 in 9th grade but last time they were in class was 1st grade or similar. Some do not even speak Spanish!! being from rural areas in Guatamala for example. They cause problems, delay everyone else in school.

  31. So….build that wall?

  32. I'm surprised NYC hasn't placed the illegal immigrants in private schools, given the red carpet treatment in first class hotels.

  33. This education is important. Glad they can go to school

  34. I don’t understand why they keep referring to them as “asylum seekers.” They are illegal immigrants. Plain and simple.

  35. ..leave them alone and let them learn.✊🏽

  36. Many of these kids don't speak spanish either, over 100 countries crossing the border. What a mess.

  37. Bye bye new York. You did it to yourselves…

  38. There are so many white supremacist in the comment section . NYC is full of white supremacist . Shame on ya. 😂
    A bunch of hypocrites 😱

  39. We just gotta figure it out instead of being hateful. We're one of the richest countries in the world. We can't let kids down. ANY kid. Teach them right, teach them well. Money from less important things has to be moved over. Things like military spending.

  40. This is a joke!! This is what happens when democrats are in control. Absolutely ridiculous.
