  1. Good! All illegals need to be deported and go through the process just like everyone else!

  2. Good. Get them outta here.

  3. Keep DACA (Close the Border) or Keep Border Open (Terminate DACA).

  4. Last time I checked, Mexico and central America are Democracies so there the victim of their choice on who they chose at the polls. Elections have consequences.

  5. Illegals became dreamers along the way. United States, the country of compassionate suckers!

  6. I can’t wait till they deport all the Latinos.

  7. DACA is not affecting Ameircans at all. Its been in pace for 11 years and there has been no proven negative effect of the program. They deserve a chance at a better life. That is the American dream.

  8. well crossing a border illegally IS ILLEGAL

  9. If these individual dreamers really wanted to be US citizens then why have they not used all this time to become legal citizens. Seems they merely want free benefits without any effort.

  10. Everything under that program was unconditional!

  11. Good news !
    Go home illegals ! Let’s start the deportation process !

  12. This is very dangerous, and not for the individuals people think….
    Deported Immigrants might be the lucky ones, getting a free ride out!

    For those curious why, the reasoning used by this Judge will be decided upon by the Supreme Court. A Supreme Court that was just famously stacked by Mitch McConnel, and is now packed by Federalists that share a certain ideal on how the government should be run. It isn't difficult to see where this Supreme Court siding with the Judge's reasoning and, in doing so, creating a whole new clause within the Constitution.

    Agencies empowered by Congress to enact their own policies will be forbidden….

    So many agencies within the United States are formatted like that for a reason, the Gridlock within Congress would make it impossible for them to function otherwise. Just imagine what would happen to whole branches of our federal government when they are no longer able to make policy changes to deal with a new situation. That you, dear citizen, could end up having to wait for Congress to make a full law to deal with a natural disaster, technological change, or economical collapse….

  13. DACA is illegal. Plus open borders hurt programs like DACA. Today the idea of DACA sounds insane because of how many people have come into our country.

  14. Okay, you're going to drop a 23 year old English speaker off in Bolivia and then what?

  15. Why do these people never blame their parents for putting them in this position? It’s their parents who are threatening their ‘dreams’, nobody else.

  16. Why they declare and protest in America but not in their own country? My question to them.

  17. The Fourteenth Amendment was Ratified three years after The Civil War ended. The “naturalized” people it refers to were those formerly enslaved. Today however, I feel the word “naturalized” can be used for Dreamers and DACA recipients. As defined on the U.S. Citizen and Immigration website,

    “naturalization is the process to voluntarily become a U.S. citizen if you were born outside of the United States. In general, you may be eligible if you can show continuous U.S. residence for three to five years, are at least 18 years old, and demonstrate good moral character and loyalty to the U.S. Constitution.”

    The strength of my argument is formed directly by the U.S. government’s words. Dreamers and DACA recipients are the children of immigrant parent brought here when they were very young. They grew up in this country and have resided here most of their lives. They went to American schools, where they took Civics and learned all about how we are a country built on the backs of immigrants. DACA recipients apply for financial aid and attend college just like other young Americans. Dreamers and DACA recipients aspire to take hold on their own American Dream in the future. If we hold the words written by the Department of Homeland Security to be true, then these young adults encompass all qualifications necessary to become a naturalized citizen of the United States.

  18. ILLEGAL Immigrants found to be ILLEGAL.
    Who would have thought, LOL.

  19. Let them try this in another Country LOL.. see this is what happens when you have a WEAK and PATHETIC GOOFBALL as your president 👍👍

  20. I was looking for the video from CNN, as I wanted to see how fake news CNN tries to cover up its lies. CNN conveniently hasnt posted this video . LOL

  21. The Left probably could have worked something out but with three years of open borders and about 7 million new illegals from God knows where nobody is in the mood for illegal residency with benefits policies anymore. Just another disaster to add to the list.

  22. DAGA primary policy is ousting Republicans from office and replacing them with Democrats. That's their own words from their own website. The claim is that they are serving America's best interests by doing so.

  23. Idk why they said we cost money, we pay taxes just like any other citizens and we do not qualify for fed assistance nor social security but we still pay for those things..if anything our taxes help us citizens.

  24. I never agreed with DACA because it became nonstop and no border control. Take care of Americans you democrats!! You're being voted out asap.

  25. The Supreme Court needs to end it and send them all back but Obama and the rest of democrats could adopt some of them 🙄 😂 I wouldn't hold my breath on that😂

  26. DACA is an anagram for Democrats

  27. So rare these days when someone upholds the actual LAW for REAL Americans and America instead of caving to the foreign and woke mobs! These foreigners come here illegally, that's strike one, then have as many anchor babies as they can just to work OUR system for benefits they do not deserve and didnt earn, that's strike two! Then they try to subvert our laws AGAIN using their illegal kids as weapons and excuses then they [as criminals] have the NERVE to start making DEMANDS as though we owe them something when WE DO NOT!! That's strike three! This is OUR country they have NO RIGHTS HERE at all much less the right to make demands, threats and issue ultimatums! Anchor babies dont make our laws! Neither do their criminal parents! The American dream is OUR birthright

  28. No other country in the world grants citizenship based solely on the mother's entering of a country illegally. Why can't the United States be a sovereign nation like other countries?

  29. Still everyone should know that daca kids are great and productive to this country ! No harm will ever cone from them , and remember that being illegal isn't a joy but surviving!

  30. This is great news.

    Deport those illegals. The nation needs to live by real rules.

  31. Here is what I think will happen. They will end the fourteenth amendment (born in America = American) and make all illegals citizens. Just deport.

  32. Here is what I think will happen. They will end the fourteenth amendment (born in America = American) and make all illegals citizens. Just deport.

  33. It's unfortunate he didn't strike down work authorization immediately. Program needs to end already.

  34. Woke DeSantis & Abbott use tax-payer Infrastructure and Covid funds to send migrants from another state to another state. America already has drug dealers on every corner so can't blame that on border migrants. USA destabilised Latin America by bombing Cuba 1959-60, Dominican Republic 1965-66, El Salvador 1981-92, Guatemala 1954, 1960, 1964, 1967-69, Nicaragua 1981-90, Panama 1989-90 & Peru 1965. Have migrants forgotten the butchers of their past?

  35. They can still have their dream…. ENTER THE US THE RIGHT WAY! Then you can proceed with your dream… simple as that!

  36. Pretty sure h1b fraud from India is the bigger problem

  37. Go march against the Cartel in your own country……..We don't want u here!!

  38. And in this episode of republicans shooting themself in the foot with court decisions before election season!

  39. Obama and Biden had years to push this through Congress but did not. More promises broken.
