The word is out!!

The word is out the new immigration laws and policies at the southern US border make it open to all. They are handing out , government benefits, work visas, transportation , housing and voting rights to everyone. And with almost zero percent being vetted in any way. It is so well known that illegals don't even run or try or hide, They look for Border patrol agents to turn themselves in so they can start cashing in on the America. dream. This is all true. Even though the wall slowed them down and created fewer places for them to cross. It doesn't matter know. They gladly seek out law enforcement even in large groups with no attempt to flee, knowing they will be hydrated, fed, housed and put in line to collect almost all the benefits entitled to tax paying Americans. They have seen numbers of over 10,000 a day crossing the border and surrendering to border patrol agents. I don't know how many of you have been to the Eagle Pass Texas , but I have . It's a medium size town of roughly 25,000 residents. And in one day alone recently over 4,000 illegals turned themselves into border patrol.

How long can this misguided, insane, illegal , activity continue ?? Because the word is out the chumps in America are waiting or you.

This has done absolutely nothing in making America safer like they would like you to believe. In no way has made the border safer, and treating the illegals fairly ? Really? Someone seems to be forgetting the thousands and thousands of displaced veterans, the physically and mentally wounded soldiers and their families. And the pathetic and substandard health care they receive.

Not to mention an endless number of issues and problems facing our first nation peoples and other minorities where the amount of money and resources wasted on illegals would be much more deservedly and sensibly spent. Just saying !

@windinhishair You refuse to read the report by the Dept of Homeland Security and the Border Patrol. Presented to the House committee on Homeland Security where the real truth about what is happening on the border is clearly exposed. I never said asylum seekers were carrying the drugs across the border. If you read the report just like I stated in comments to you. The mass surrender of illegals are orchestrated by the drug cartels getting border patrol to close inspection stations and abandon border surveillance leaving them unmanned and presenting easy passage of large amounts of drugs and people by cars and trucks. Read the report it tells of the Tucson sector and the del Rio sector in eagle pass closing their inspection stations to deal with the influx of illegals. Planned and directed by the drug cartels to do just that for that purpose of overwhelming them.

Hopefully some of the other people here are not to lazy and not to single minded to read an actual report to the Committee on Homeland Security by the agencies dealing with these issues from a front row seat on a daily basis.

You continue to try to rebuke the facts in the report with scripted information you obviously gathered from self serving source or unrelated information with questionable validity.

Everything I stated is not verifiable in that report just like I informed you. I am done debating this issue with people who refuse to read the entirety of the most valid , factual and complete report on the condition of the border clusterfuck going on today. I know it's to.much for your limited capacity brain to absorb and comprehend considering it is many pages and over I believe five separate phases. But for those of you not so blinded by the propaganda machine you need to see the reality they are trying to hide from you.

And this is for you windless , comments made by Chairman Green from Tn.

In just over two years of Secretary Mayorkas’ leadership, the number of encounters at our Southwest border has doubled compared to the previous administration. More than 1.5 million known gotaways have entered our country. The drug cartels control our Southwest border and are flooding our communities with fentanyl,” Chairman Green said. “This is not a coincidence—this is a dereliction of duty. As the Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas swore an oath to the Constitution and to faithfully discharge the duties of his office. But as the Committee has learned time and time again through witness testimony and firsthand insight from the frontlines of this crisis, the American people have been forced to face the devastating costs of his failure. There is no question that Secretary Mayorkas is the chief architect of the open borders policies that got us here, and it is crucial that this Committee fulfills its congressional oversight duties and leaves no stone unturned in its efforts to get the facts. This preliminary report is just the first step to get to the bottom of this crisis, demonstrate why this Committee’s investigation is necessary, and shine a light on the intentionally reckless policy decisions that have created the worst border crisis in American history.”

So you just keep refusing. to believe the truth it's a sad thing when your ego and your narrow mind won't let you accept reality staring you in the face.

@goodlil666 Gee, it sure seems like a bipartisan border bill to address border security would be in order, particularly since there is inadequate inspection at the border crossings. And we had a border bill negotiated with both Republicans and Democrats that was poised to pass the Senate and likely the House. But then Trump commanded that Republicans refuse to sign onto the bill so he could use it as a campaign issue. The root cause of drugs coming across the border isn't people coming across the border to claim asylum. It is a lack of funding for inspection and enforcement, which is squarely in the hands of Congress. You can't blame that on immigrants, who are not being granted the things you allege in your original post. And you can't blame it on Secretary Mayorkas either. Funding is in the purview of Congress. They should do their job, but they won't. Reallocation of existing resources only goes so far, and opens up other avenues that people will exploit.

@goodlil666 How sad is it to blame immigrants legally claiming asylum with your false and misleading claims of freebies, including the right to vote. If you want people to pay attention to what you are saying, don't start by blaming people who are claiming asylum in accordance with existing US law. If that has other consequences, then those need to be dealt with through legislation and funding. We should deal with the mess, not blame people who are only looking for a better life like the rest of us and trying to do so legally.

@windinhishair False and misleading claims of freebies?? They get health care , they get food stamps , give me a break handing out free food and healthcare is just that freebies.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@goodlil666 Got it. They shouldn't be able to eat food that Americans can eat, or get health care if they are sick or injured because they might take an appointment an American could have. But you don't hate them.

@goodlil666 actually, unless They are granted full.legal status they do not get those benefits. True though, according to EMTALA anyone appearing in an emergency room must be seen and triaged regardless of their coverage, often underinsured or uninsured US citizens. Unfortunately, in some states, the state laws are at odds with EMTALA when a woman presents with vaginal bleeding.
goodlil666 · 51-55, M
@samueltyler2 Thats not true. Go back and read the updated addendums and "special exceptions" they have written in for the
regardless of immigration status recipients. Also many states hand out benefits regardless of immigration status as well.

@goodlil666 you are welcome my, I work on the health industry, i guarantee the undocumented do not get coverage.
goodlil666 · 51-55, M
@samueltyler2 Go read the laws , and I can assure you some of them do.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
