In reply to BeatDball
Gov's Abbott and DeSantis.
Not only responsible, but also guilty of human trafficking.
Same in Toronto ... immigrants are flooding the city.
In reply to velo
Not just NYC every vibrant town in the US has seen an uptick in homelessness....whether it's from immigrants/refugees or the vast amount of Americans that have fallen on really hard times. It's a pandemic in itself!
In reply to Drapsey Suh lemme assk eh Drazee...you wanted dem economic migrants/ border jumpers/illegal immigrants to stay & be looked after (as we say in the Caribbean/Commonwealth) in the border towns!?
Didn't blue cities' mayors say that they would happy & glad to look after the border jumpers as they are SANCTUARY CITIES??????? Foool, please stop.

Hope they pitch their tents right in front of your favorite hangout, your barbershop (sorry, I forgot the name).
The world consists of "Pulls and Shoves" Today I drove by Int'l Boulevard Oakland, Ca and was shocked! Homelessness is 10 times 20yrs ago! In that time there have been 12yrsof Republican presidency, 100s of percentage growth in Silicon Valley, exponential growth in # of billionaires plus the wealth of each billionaire. But. Republicans keep sabotaging solutions by blocking reasonable taxes on the rich

At this very moment an undocumented immigrant is harvesting your vegetables, repairing a buildimg in your city. They are also paying taxes including social security from which they may never benefit. Add the traffic fines
It is all a scam from which the haters real and pretended benefit from

Are you advocating the return of America's Mayor?
Deep Trouble: Rudy Giuliani Likely to End Up Filing for Bankruptcy and Will Be Forced to Use Court-appointed Defense Attorney, Former Nixon Counsel Believes
I'm willing to bet you think he would find a solution to NYC's Tent City 'status'.
In reply to Kay
Are you referring to when European immigrants by the millions poured into Canada in the 1800's?
In reply to Brerzerk Who are those, illimitable, laborers which crosses the border in the mornings & return home after work? Hasnt this been the way for decades?
Stop being willfully foolish. How many farms are on the border? Drive them 12 hrs to a farm the. 12hrs back?
In reply to BeatDball
Where did you hear that shit from? Think if that makes any sense!!
In reply to Emir
No THESE
In reply to velo
Its just crass that this country can send 320 billion dollars to shore up /defend another country's border's and
neglect its own. Neglect its own citizens , homeless , vets , local infrastructure, local aid.
Its as simple as that .
But you guys are LITERALLY immigrants too!!!
In reply to velo Thats a lot hyperbolic, dont you think? A person gets drunk once or twice you dont label him a alcoholic, or do you? and the Governor and Mayor, sharp-eye Washington, as my wife calls him are on the case
In reply to Drapsey
That should be front and center of discussion. But it won't be because everyone in Government at White House,Federal and State
are culpable.Congress will not do anything about proper Immigration as the Repubnuts are more concerned with the 'Browning of
America' and wants to see less people of that description flood the USA as citizens as whites are fast becoming a minority
if not already. The Dems are always incompetent at legislation even when they hold the reins.
I would suggest that Cities such as New York that are being overwhelmed with 'immigrants. make a first step in accepting the people, but also
seize all buses which are being used to transport people. Buses would be sold /auctioned to meet expenses. This I am sure would
put a brake on this method as a first step.
However it is the federal govt's responsibility to deal with the problem and its first step is to make sure that Border States
are provided with the best facilities to house and care for immigrants and not leave it for the States to be saddled with
any expenditure. Then in an orderly fashion, immigrants, regardless of the numbers can be dispersed orderly and legally
throughout the country. The Federal government should spend the money and take care of the problem at all levels.
The Dakotas ,for example can certainly use people as their population is like 2 per square mile(LOL)
But seriously what we are seeing is a monumental failure of the USA to deal with a domestic problem.
Certainly, the vast sums being sent to Ukraine should be used for good purpose in treating this humanitarian problem with the
utmost urgency ,need and respect it deserves. Ukraine should be a problem dealt with by the several European Countries that are part
of NATO yet their collective aid is miniscule as the US is bearing the burden and has no borders there. They are nothing more than a
51st state Collectively of the USA.
Biden and the Congress are a collective sick joke.Had the color of those crossing the us border been white, there would be
no problem.America is like that be it Republicans or Democrats or others.The greater responsibility is with the occupant
of the White House as Immigration and matters foreign are primarily his domain.

We saw that before with the reception given to the influx of Eastern Europeans following the Ronald Reagan "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall" episode.
In reply to birdseye
The same nyc mayor asking residents to take in immigrants into their house .when has thet ever had any comprehensive solution to this problem one side would like to deport millions if they could the other wants to bury their head in the sand and believe the situation is not that deep.

Totally touche...
This begs the query ..why did the congressional representatives from the distressed border states agree to send these sums abroad given their dire need for funding ? The answer will expose who are the real bosses in charge of things near and far.
In reply to Halliwell
u are aware that the Mexican cartel is doing brisk business worldwide using the southern border?
In reply to johndom90
No, this is all new to me. The only old news is Caribbean folks feeling more aligned to Yanks than immigrants. The dream never dies.
In reply to johndom90
it boggles the mind. I love my adopted country very much but I am saddened to see what it has become
and is becoming. There is very little true love among people,divisiveness is the name of the game
and leadership at every level from the very top is woeful .
America has become captive of something that I know not an have no answers for.
One constant that never seems to lessen is GREED.
Even the final arbiters, the supreme court is becoming untrustworthy and of highly questionable characters.
And the people continue to suffer too much needlessly when they ought to be.
I don't think thing thinks will get better either in this decade.
But we must always have hope.
It's getting worse, the Africans are coming!
Thousands of West African migrants entering US through new route advertised online
Mauritanians are using WhatsApp, Instagram and other channels to guide fellow migrants along the route, which makes stops in Turkey, Colombia, El Salvador and Managua, Nicaragua, where they are whisked onto a bus by smugglers to cross the US-Mexican border, according to the Associated Press.
Nicaragua, crucially, has relaxed entry requirements that allow Mauritanians and other foreign nationals to purchase a low-cost visa without proof of onward travel.
In reply to johndom90
Military spending has always been crass in this country. The money sent to Ukraine is part of the Pentagon's budget isn't it? After Vietnam and the boat people crisis thousands of Vietnamese refugees were housed through (Defense budget) in facilities better than what housed both poor descendants of slaves and poor whites. Now, there children and grand-children have successfully sued to end affirmative action because as they claim. disadvantage them. Don't complain about Military spending only when it suits you. Lots of that money should go to HHS budget to help those needing a 'hand up'
