The problem with this is once they are here under some version of legal status, if they are in a liberal state, that state generally grants them taxpayer funded benefits, like food stamps, medicaid, etc etc. Mass. is one state I know of that does this and I am sure there are many others.
If you don't mind your tax money going to this group, then fine, but when most cities have serious issues, giving this money to people who will not work is a real slap in the face.
The only way to stop that is to vote out those who advance these policies (to support non-citizens). And we know how that goes.

They're already being fed and most of them are being housed, here in the US, AT TAXPAYER'S EXPENSE, as well as bussed all over the country. You don't call that a "freebie"?????

I found you first sentence to be really off the wall. Obama only deported "convicted" criminals he told Homeland Security to leave the rest alone. He also implemented DACA and DAPA ( the latter turned over by the courts) which gave a stay of deportation to millions of illegal aliens. His deportation rate was dismal.

Look at what the average wage is in some of these countries and look what freebies TAXPAYERS are giving them if they arrive.

All you need to know, forget what they say, they are here for the handouts...otherwise known as BAIT!

Biden and his puppeteers and democrats need to be tried for treason. I'd call a intentional breech in national security, a TREASONOUS ACT. Aside from the persecution of a political opponent using false warrants.

This is what they need to apply for assistance in California:

Housed in tents mostly except for the ones who are shipped to other places by a few governors who think that's clever and funny

I see it here all the time for every labor-intensive work, one white guy leaning against his

pickup truck and five Latinos doing all the hard dirty work.

Seattle is spending $8 to house “migrants” in a hotel during a cold snap. Now, Seattle wants the state and feds to pay to avoid their returning to the rents at the church that invited them here initially.

Anyway, I see you are deflecting and running from my comment about cities running out of money to give freebies to these phony asylum seekers and illegals.

You are the one who'd stated as a fact that they don't receive freebies, yet not only are cities now running out of money to support them, the US taxpayer has been supporting them for years to the tune of more than $100 Billion dollars per year. Seems you have been paying no attention whatsoever to what has been happening regarding this topic.

Oh lookie, another deflection. When you know your stance is based on false talking points all that you can do is to deflect, deflect, deflect.

But anyway, yes, how DID Biden* manage to steal classified docs from the SCIF while he was a senator?

I don't know why you believe that comment about classified docs belongs in this thread, unless you're claiming Biden* was an illegal alien when he'd stolen them? Or maybe that he'd had an illegal alien steal them for him?
Yes, my ancestors did their paperwork.
