  1. Also the citizens of Houston have a problem with the current mayor and will continue to have problems with the New Mayor.

  2. Do You Not Realize t hey are doing it on Purpose to Red states~!

  3. Democrats would rather see America tank than admit Trump was right

  4. They try to impeach Biden instead of this and just blame democrats. Republicans have been in charge for two years in the House.

  5. Houston mayor should welcome every illegals! You liberal democrats are the root cause of illegals! They know you guys are not arresting them or share information with immigration agents!

  6. I clearly remember Joe Biden stating that if these folks did not use the government website to register before enting the United States, they would be "instantly returned, and would be ineligible to reenter for five years".
    Another Biden lie.

  7. Sly being sly…..slick talking politician,Houston has turned to a dump,under your watch….you backed biden, now the the ship is sinking and you want off……..

  8. 😮😅 no old man This is BIDEN OLD JOOOE DDUM POLOCYS OLD JOE NEED MAMA OLD HOME 😅😮

  9. Congress already have laws in place restricting illegal immigration the problem is the installed Marxist president refuses to act upon them.

  10. Why would it be Texas’s responsibility to house illegal immigration?

  11. Leftists have ruined every city in the land.

  12. Someone email their repsl tomorrow, if they are there, and ask if Hunter Biden's laptop was used to open the border gates or the gates were burned off by BLM/Space lasers. That should get their attention.

  13. mayor says we need reform. without doing anything. typical rhetoric from most democrats lately

  14. We need politicians who inforce existing laws😮

  15. the government needs to seal the borders or we the people will seal it for them.. This is what it is coming to…

  16. Biden has allowed 8 million illegal immigrants to America. They are all on welfare. Ask Argentina how that ends.

  17. The immigrants are coming from destabilized countries where war, crime and famine have taken over. The Wagner Group requires 25% of a country's resources, unfunding governments.

  18. Russia via propaganda and the Wagner Group have declared WW3 on the world.

  19. The Wagner Group is known to have operated in at least 11 countries; Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Syria, Sudan, Mozambique, Central African Republic, Mali, Libya, Venezuela, and Madagascar, spanning three continents, Europe, Africa and South America.

  20. There are several parties involved in the Syrian Civil War. President Bashar al-Assad controls the Syrian Arab Army (SAA), which has fought alongside Hezbollah and numerous Shiʿi militias. He has received foreign support from Russia and Iran.Dec 8, 2023

  21. A crisis caused by Biden and Democrats. Tell the truth!

  22. Comprehensive reform is politicians going to get money for the problem they caused. The price tag just got higher.!

  23. Republicans have control of the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES all year! They haven't put a bill forward yet to make any immigration reforms.

  24. Sylvester Turner also goes by Eric Banegas how's my money looking slobs

  25. Comprehensive Reform/Code Words for make everyone legal, then the problem just goes away.. same old deceitful talk. The Whole World has forgotten the term (Immigration Quota). No thief shall enter the Kingdom of God through the back door.
