  1. Illegal crossings from 2016 – 2020 were at a 40 year low. Illegal crossings from 2021 – present are at all time highs. This is 100% on POTUS.

  2. Wow ! Welcome to the reporting on the the border NBC after calling it a challenge and NOT a crisis for 3 years …! Finish the humanitarian wall in strategic areas….!

  3. Trump will have a mess to clean up. Sickening. We are becoming a narco state because the border patrol is too busy with migrants.

  4. MEXICO AMERICANOS FOR OUR PRESIDENT TRUMP 2024 MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA

  5. Biden wants money to hire more Border agents to process and admit more migrants quicker and technology to detect Fetanyl. Neither is a solution to the problems he caused.

  6. Biden and the Democrats are lieing to these people, there are no jobs or affordable housing!!!!!!

  7. Republicans want to stop the flow of migrants but won’t extend more funds to immigration enforcement.

    Now do people finally get it ?

    Republicans can continue to hold funding hostage and use these migrants to break our cities.

    Who is the real enemy?

  8. Yes, our own gov is helping other countries invade us, right in our faces, too.

  9. If you vote the same, it will only get worse.

  10. Spring will skyrocket again.

  11. The migrants don't understand the resentment & animosity of the American people who are paying for their upkeep. The migrants take American financial support for granted, but that aid isn't enough. The migrants weren't expecting it to be so difficult. Many are ending up homeless & without a job. The migrants thought they had left homelessness & no jobs back in their home countries. The migrants are finding out that America isn't the land of plenty that was promised.

  12. Bet they also help then vote in 2024 while saying. We need more money!

  13. 😂🎉 Texas is giving free rides to criminals and destroying the border if they can't stop them give them a map with directions to walk to the sanctuary cities of there choice 😮 😮

  14. Remember when NBC said a border wall was racist
    Remember when NBC said there was no crisis

  15. These illegals should be charged with child abuse

  16. The Democrats are destroying America

  17. Make America great again 👎
    Make America Latinos again 👍

  18. I live in El Paso. Biden's refusal to secure our sovereign national boarders is treasonous at this point.

  19. This border crisis has sadly caused me to become very anti-migrant. I have zero empathy for all those who have done so illegally and lied.

  20. Put the soldiers there and block the border !!!! Mexico doesn’t care USA !!!!

  21. thanks Biden so inhumane on tax man dime

  22. When Human Rights are at Stake, Our Country is Always Fast to Preach the Other Countries to Honor and Consider it yet on This Matter always Fall Short of Showing it to these Migrants. Their Stories are so Tragic and They are Literally Begging for Help! If We do not Take Them in Together with Their Families, then What Kind of 1st World Country are We??! 😤😠😡🤬!!

  23. This shouldn’t of been an issue, the wall was supposed to be up and channeling asylum seekers though areas where they can safely request help

  24. But Dems said it’s not unusual! We should all be good little sheep and believe them right? They won’t destroy our economy of way of living! Let’s give them sanctuary like democratic supporters asked. We don’t need our tax dollars
