These countries need to fix their own problems for their people. No one should be living like this.
I can't feel sorry for these people, not only did no one tell these people to come here but it's actually illegal. You're not suppose to do this. They need to go home.
Wait… there constitutional right? They aren't even American citizens. They have no constitution
This is so terrible.
The US Border Patrol is supposed to x-ray trucks or have dogs. No one would have died if this truck had been x-rayed Biden has defunded the US Border Patrol or the US Border Patrol has decided not to check. You all saw the pictures at the border crossings where NO XRAY was done on the truck while the guy talked to the US Border Patrol in the daily mail uk
We the people are going to stop you from getting Into our country period. We will fight back.
Maybe they should stay home and stop trying to destroy our country
prayers hugs and love for yall
Accurate numbers please.
haha so todays border crisis is trumps fault.
We have no room. FJB
The border crisis will not be solved at the border more than the drug epidemic has been solved at the border or school gun violence solved in schools. Politicians love to put border patrol agents and police officers behind them on TV and tell us how these brave men and women in uniform are going to save us all. They believe using them as props makes them look tough. The sad truth is, they are right. From a purely PR standpoint, the formula does deliver. They therefore come up with tough guy slogans like “War on drugs", “build a wall”, ”harden schools” or “law and order” and Americans have been gobbling it all up while waiting for the promised solutions for decades. No walls, no drones, no agents will be numerous, tough or tall enough to "protect" Western industrialized countries from the influx if an ever increasing portion of the world population faces despair inducing, abject poverty in addition to now accelerating climate disasters. Take Haiti, a failed state for now over three decades. It was ruled successively in the 70’s and 80’s by a father and son, two US supported dictators who pillaged and murdered by the tens of thousands. The son, “Baby Doc” facing a massive rebellion was picked up by a US chartered military plane in the middle of the night with hundreds of millions of dollars in tow and lived most of the rest of his life in France in absolute luxury. Where are these funds now? In a Haitian bank? Think again. They are more likely kept close to the billions supposedly given to Haiti after the 2010 earthquake; the billions that were "managed" by a black whole called the Clinton Foundation. Dictators all over latin America knew what Duvalier father and son knew themselves: As long as they consistently established national policies that favored American business interests to the detriment of their own national interests and as long as they fought socialists or other perceived opponents to these interests by mass murder if necessary, Uncle Sam would turn his head while these dictators and their crew pillaged, raped, murdered and held on to power until the cows came home. If you wanted to be a dictator in Central or South America this was your silent contract, your winning formula for impunity, financial success and longevity. Is American foreign policy less cynical these days or does the mighty dollar and power still justify the unjustifiable? Well, ask Jamal Khashoggi. Ask Shireen Abu Akleh. God knows Haitian, South American and African leaders have a lot to atone for but lets follow the money. Who supports these despots ascension to power behind the scenes? Who really profits and secures the billions they extort from their people every year once they have been seated? Who quietly opposes the true patriotic politicians in those countries who oppose the said dictators? Who receives expulsed autocrats with open arms when their bank accounts are finally flush with cash? Who could easily prosecute them but almost never does? Who relentlessly brain drains poor countries while simultaneously pointing the finger at the incompetence of the leaders these countries are left to contend with? Who are the master puppeteers? Third world despots and mass murderers of the southern hemisphere continue to fill an essential role in the world’s economic ecosystem. They have done so for generations but they have never been the ones pulling the strings. These long standing foreign policies have accrued a devastating long term cost. Western powers are slowly but finally being served their portion of the bill in the form of wave after wave of people who are fleeing the increasingly unbearable living conditions that have been imposed on them for generations. We can call them migrants or refugees. We might as well call them people who literally have nothing left to loose. Europe’s population is 750 million. Africa’s is 1.4 Billion. The pressure on Europe’s borders will not stop. This note is long and long overdue. Rich countries will try to ignore it as long as they can. As is the case with climate change however, long gone are now the days they can do so without facing immediate and profound consequences on their own populations.
You don't even speak English!
Not everyone is running for their lives, it a story they have been told to stay here. I. Am tired of it stay in your country. Americans don't want you
Migrants are the way ALMO extorts money from the US, with its open border policies. People who are running for their lives should demand protection and security from there elected governments.
Feels like USA is going down
IT IS NOT THE USA’S RESPONSIBILITY TO TAKE CARE OF PEOPLE FEOM OTHER COUNTRIES!!!!! PERIOD!!!! AND UNTIL ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT ARE HAPPENING IN THE USA ARE TAKEN CARE OF, WE SHOULDNT BE HELPING NO ONE!!!!!!
Biden is a criminal human trafficker, Biden has run in four million illegals already, Biden is going to run in six million illegals, Biden knows that the ten million illegals will never see a immigration court
GERMAN ROYAL FAMILY: If Mexico needs more land we the U.S. Government will gladly trade lands because there's more Mexicans then ourselves and we the Americans deserve to live comfortable.
For some it is the illegal, for the Mafia it is money.
They don’t check every truck dumb a$$ or there would be a ten mile back up in Mexico
When those corrupt border patrol officers that let the truck go through the border for a bribe are going to be charged? Pure American double moral.🙄
The lady wants a 🇺🇲 house 🏠 Americans can't afford to buy a house but I'm sure she'll be able to get one

Access to White people is not a human right. 🇺🇸🫡
Where is millions and millions and millions and millions and millions of illegals going to live, what about Americans first, this is Americans last
Biden is running in gang members all across America destroying America inside out , democrats are not Americans, vote the democrats out
Good reporting job today ABC news. Immigration is never simple. But, seriously America is not…the land of milk and honey. We need something better. What is it, though? In southern Colorado, my neighbors were from Guadalajara, Mexico. I knew them …as my friends. Jose, the dad …told me …he never knew if his daughters would come back home safely from school due to gang violence. He works hard. Has his own business and bought a home in the West End in Montrose County. His oldest daughter …graduated from my high school last spring. They are exceptional. 🌻🌟Shine a light on this situation. Thank you. 💙🎏🇺🇸
This is about massive human population explosion, with four million people coming in LEGAL, and Biden’s human trafficking in ten million illegals in four years = 14 million more people living in America in four years, do democrats really care about black Americans, NO , do democrats really care about homeless veterans, No , homeless crisis in America and democrats are flooding America with fourteen million people, this is crazy on all levels
