I don't even watch them. I check out the facts for myself. However, you're just repeating the leftist lies of Biden, Harris and the rest of the Democrats.

What lies are you referring to? I think Biden wants a solution to the border problem. Trump had no clue. I'm a life long registered Republican but I think the Republican Party just wants to be an obstacle to any progress on virtually every topic.

These people aren't immigrants. They're illegal aliens and purported asylum seekers.

Per the UN, they need to ask for asylum at the first safe country they entered. The US needs to enforce that rule and tell those who demand entry into the US that the answer is "no".

There are so many people in the USA that lack any compassion for other people except for themselves. Granted there are also good people. Not trying to completely diss. It's going to sound like it.

Would YOU really WALK thousands of miles with your children just to get freebies??? It's a journey of desperation not a weekend pleasure hike.The average human walking speed is 3.1 miles per hour. With children in tow it is significantly less. A some point they will have to stop to rest for a couple of days so that elongates their progress. It's a more gruelling thing than any US citizens could never imagine.

El Salvador is a 1663 miles from US Border.
Honduras is 1422 miles from the US Border.
Guatemala is 1509 miles from the US Border.

If the USA can't handle all these immigrants, make sure these desperate people know that they will be turned away and do it before they start their journey, not after. Stop advertising a barely live "American Dream". Tell them their children are in danger at school. Tell them the USA is a gun culture. Tell them about the racism. Tell them the police force could shoot them.

US Immigration agency claims it takes 180 days (6 months) to decide on asylum applications. I submit it takes significantly longer if you get a million applications all at once. If you follow any public information about claims it can take years to attain citizenship. During that time asylum visas can expire and complicated legal forms are required in order to stay and work. The department however claims an asylum visa never expires. If you read along further there is information that conflicts with that statement. https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/form-i-9-resources/handbook-for-employers-m-274/60-evidence-of-status-for-certain-categories/63-refugees-and-asylees

Biden and Harris have been lying about how serious the situation at our border is. If Biden truly wanted a solution to the border problem he would reinstate the "wait in Mexico" policy that Trump implemented instead of Obama's "catch and release. He would have continued to build the wall. Biden's policies encourage more illegal immigration including his promises of amnesty.

Trump had no clue? Huh?

Our compassion can only go so far. We cannot allow every destitute and poor person into our country. If we did that we would be lacking compassion for our own citizens or don't they matter to you?

Of course these people would walk for miles to get freebies is that a surprise to you? However, they are also coming here to take jobs and resources from Americans to for their own selfish gain.

Many of them are being brought here by human smugglers. They aren't walking for thousands of miles they are coming here concealed in trailers, etc. We are supposed to feel compasson for people who choose a grueling path to break the law?

Trump did make it known that these people will be turned around at our border but they came anyway hoping to sneak into our country. Biden is actually encouraging them by reinstating "catch and release", allowing them into our country and also promising amnesty. He refused to finish the wall to. If you want to complain about anyone it should be Biden.

Most of these asylum seekers are making bogus claims so that's on them and them alone. Are we suppsed to feel sorry for liars to?
