Do you believe Kamala Harris has made great strides in improving the immigration souther border issue?

[lightbulb27]

VP Harris was put in charge of this issue and especially has championed working with USA's southern neighbors to resolve the immigration issues.

Mrs Harris in Guatemala

Excellent job!

Mediocre, needs improvement

Awful, nothing has been achieved if not worse

I don't know or don't care

Lets face it. The democrats plan to let as ca into a 3rd many illegal aliens into America no matter how much it costs the taxpayers and turns American into a 3rd world country. They will get them all drivers licenses and tell them all that if President Trump is re-elected he will have them all deported. This is the way they plan on stealing the 2034 election

[lightbulb27]

bingo. the only thing I question here is that they are going into democratic cities, whose electorates will go to a Democrat. So not much gained politically in the short term, unless they are disbursed to the midwest. In theory, they would grow the economy... by way of confiscation and redistribution.

[exitseven]

Government abbott and others are doingv the csmart thing shipping them to Chicago and NYC. I had to laugh today seeing mayor Adam's complaining about how much illegal aliens are costing the city. I guess being a sanctuary city isn't as much fun as he thought it would be. Wait until they can't afford to pick up the garbage.

[Lliam]

Wow, that was a strong message! 😂🤣

I have a question, though. Why are these "migrants" being given comfy bus rides and arriving with nice backpacks, clothes, and shoes? Why don't any of them look tired or hungry after walking 3000 miles? LOL

[Anonymous]

No. They've been saying it wasn't a problem for years now suddenly the democrats acknowledge it is so...

[Opinion Owner]

... its an election issue.

[BrookeAZ90]

If she has improved anything, I am yet to hear about it.

[DryGermanGuy]

So far she has been a failure in that regard. Then again, I don't know what real-life powers the VP holds to make actual policy - an old joke I read about the office was, "it is as about as useful as a bucket of spit".

[Paris13]

The Last Time a Year Ago, She was Supposed to even Go to the Border, She stood on the News and Laughed Like an Old hen. What a Joke she is. xxoo

[FunkyMonkee]

Joe said, "Let's finish the job." I want to know, When are you gonna START? Or, are you talking about the job of literally destroying this country?

[ObscuredBeyond]

Under Camel Toe, the southern border hosts more beheadings than the entire French revolution.

[lightbulb27]

serious?

[Constantboredom]

Well someone certainly screwed up, I don’t remember the border being that bad when I was a kid or hearing about it until the last 10 years or so.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Crap why not just tell criminals "Don't do crimes"... we could get rid of prisons!

[OddBeMe]

Hearing you fcks bitch about it she sounds like she’s doing a bang up job. Handing out voter cards for every pregnant immigrant,

[lightbulb27]

its not an easy problem to solve, but can't say I see much of any progress, plan, strategy or anything of merit.

[OddBeMe]

Yeah I don’t know what the VP does. At least Biden was mentioned as a consultant to Obama.

But honestly I can’t not wonder if the “border crisis” is self imposed. What’s the real problem? Illegals? They commit less crime, pay sales tax and don’t take welfare. What’s the big deal?

[lightbulb27]

mayor of my city said it's costing billions and they've so gone over capacity there's cases they kicked amerians out of hotels to make room for them. Then still not enough space, they've taken over school gyms to house asylum seekers.

$1 billion... that's an estimate over a year ago. cheaper to deal with it in Mexico or SA... dollar goes further there...

[OddBeMe]

Well I have several issues with this “news article”. First, the mayor just said that. Doesn’t mean it’s fact. Yet ABC reports it like fact. Ok. And where’s the benefits of immigration factored in?

How much do illegal immigrants benefit the economy?
How much of this mayor’s cost is self imposed? We don’t need massive influx of ICE agents…

[lightbulb27]

good points, there's flip side. you are asking cost /benefit.
here's the other issue which is they are out of space. That says... the volumes are higher than ever... and they keep coming.
www.usnews.com/.../new-york-city-turns-to-school-gyms-to-house-new-migrants-prompting-uproar
Ultimately, it shouldn't cost tha tmuch. just setup soup kitchens like in the depression to cover the food issue... cheap. Housing is the issue as NYC is expensive.

[OddBeMe]

They’re out of space because they don’t want to out them in apartments in the burrows. Which there are plenty. And then Americans would think they’re getting something more than them. As if an illegal migrant without a cent to his name is a threat to your career lol

[lightbulb27]

true, not a threat to some. costs $ to house them and some people don't have a place to stay at all. not really fair... I know a guy lives in his car... can't find a place.
should spread them out over the country...

[OddBeMe]

I agree on that. We literally have thousands of foreclosed homes going to shit but we have this perverse need to make people prove themselves before we can show them decency. Perhaps we show a little decency, give them a home to rent and let the immigrants make something of themselves.

I’d say that for homegrown welfare Americans, but seriously, immigrants work harder than them. I’d rather deport all welfare recipients and take in all the people at the border. Lol

[Avicenna]

What arrogance and stupidity from a dumbass who lives off his wife (which figures), which makes him a welfare recipient writ large.

[OddBeMe]

@Avicenna makes me arrogant to want to house the homeless? Oh, liberals right? Always trying to do the right thing.

Luckily you cuckservstives are there to keep us ruthless.

[Avicenna]

Well, you're arrogant and dishonest. Here's what you said;

"I’d rather deport all welfare recipients and take in all the people at the border."

People are on welfare for any number of reasons, including structural economic change, something that doesn't get fixed by bringing in millions of unskilled illegals. And deporting citizens isn't something any decent society would do.

As for you wanting to put the illegals in foreclosed homes, are these homes livable? Who will pay for repairs to them? Will taxpayers pay for any damage the illegals do to these foreclosed homes? It's not a bad idea in theory, but how do you actually bring it to fruition without violating property rights and wasting a lot of taxpayer money? This is an example of the huge expenses the illegals bring. And any sales taxes they pay sure won't make up for all this expense.

Furthermore, you still have a reduction in housing supply since those foreclosed homes would normally go on the market at some point. Lower supply at a time when the number of homes for sale is still low means more expensive housing for everyone. But in your world, everyone should bend over backwards and sacrifice their own well-being for illegal invaders who aren't needed and bring no net benefit to society.

[OddBeMe]

@Avicenna yes… one of my finest immigration arguments. Ad absurdism obviously. I don’t want to deport my grandparents. Shows how you have no argument so you go for idiotic insult.

[lightbulb27]

The filthy rich are saying no to immigrants...

Question is will others do as Danesh ascribes... for people to setup up and house them. We all have space... I personally house people I know, but if I don't, I couldn't take the risk...

Nope.
