If you were interested or concerned, you would have found answers. However this is a good thing, where people not totally aware of the contradictions and falsehoods of what a border IS and what appropriate measures to secure a border. What even IS a secure border? These are questions Americans need to roll in their heads otherwise the leading party will decide for you. This coverage gets conversations going and solutions to be submitted and for that C5 is priceless.

How has America generated poverty in countries like China, India, Turkey, Ukraine, Russia & Romania for example? There is a significant increase of migrants from these countries, yet they're all significant sovereign economies no? Why is it that the migrant and migrant families I know from Cuba, Venezuela, El Salvador, Mexico and Nicaragua hate their Governments?
      Let us use the situation of the Senegalese migrants for example. Senegal's main export partners as of 2024 are Mali, Switzerland, India, China and Cote d'ivoire, while it's main import partners are France, India, China, Russia and ECOWAS states of West Africa. If there is poverty that has been generated in Senegal, it is at the hand of these countries. So how is America to blame?
      Again I'll use the man from Guinea as an example. There are 3 different countries called Guinea, but none of them have America as a main trade partner, the only Guinea that has instability is Guinea-Bissau and this stems from political conflict from the president (Who is Russia aligned) attempting to dissolve the parliament. So again, how is America to blame?
      I am a Kenyan immigrant living in America, there is barely any violence in Kenya apart from banditry in the north which affects a small segment of the population, yet before I relocated from Kenya, there was talk of Kenyans taking the same journey as many of these migrants. Kenya is a developing country with a lot poverty, yes. But poverty in Kenya stems from corruption, cronyism and lack of Government funding for infrastructure. This is not America's job to absorb, but somehow people like you think otherwise. Why must some countries citizens be coddled because of what their Governments permit or do to their people?

    I have mixed feelings about this situation. On one hand Andrew did a great job highlighting the human side of the crises. These people have travelled through hell just for a better life whether it be economical or safety wise. But on the other hand the legal routes are broken, meaning there is a good chance I won’t get a chance at American citizenship in my life. I am Indian born Canadian citizen (moved here as a child). The wait time for employment based green card is 20 years for me plus 5 years for citizenship after. I don’t know what to make of the envy I feel knowing that they have a chance at the dream that I won’t get until my 50s, a opportunity to work in America and be at the frontiers of science, an opportunity to experience the American dream (as unrealistic as that may be given the statistics). However, they are able to get the opportunity through crossing the border. I am not sure if that makes me a bad person for feeling envious or not, but that’s the feeling I kept getting in between realizing their dire humanitarian situation that Andrew presented here.

      The end goal is to break the cycle I feel, to escape poverty back where you came from (like mexico) and to create a new life in the United States. The goal is to break the cycle and to have a secure house and land that you can call your own, one where you feel truly safe inside. That is what my mom and stepdad did for my family and even though they made it happen for our family, we still struggled ofc because you cant do much with no skills and no English. Due to that, thats when its time for the kids to step up and do their part which is to use what little they have to make the actual dream a reality for their parents, to secure stability in this American society via school or trade or a unique talent to set themselves well as well as setting their parents up in the next decade or two. In regards to New York im not sure how they are doing, maybe having like 10 people in a one bedroom but ik that is how it was done in California.

      It's mostly corporate profits. It's why even though Biden has been tougher on the border than Trump was, the economy would suffer even more from going completely against immigration.
      There are many "deplorable" jobs that illegal immigrants can fill for horrible wages because their immigration status is used against them.
      In one sense, they can use that to even subjugate American workers.
      It doesn't matter anyways because in 2 to 3 generations they can just brainwash the offspring chain to be loyal "American patriots" who will complain about the next batch of immigrants coming in (as has happened throughout our history haha).
      What to do? End the American Empire. Remove a good chunk of the amounts of military bases around the planet. Use that money instead on our own population, and Marshall Plan countries in Latin America, Asia and Africa.
      We gain more with the world being just allies and trade partners in peace, than colonies to a master.
      If people complain about Russia or China, who was it that keeps egging them on, becoming more authoritarian an insular? The US. The military industrial complex has much to gain from more fear, more hate, more terror. Follow the money, and you get a decent chunk of the picture as to how the world works.

To think if they just set up those migrant checkpoints at actual crossings and created an orderly system for processing them this whole thing could be managed. They are already giving them everything they need when they cross illegally, so just cut out the middleman! Who is the middleman? The cartel. They charge in the ballpark of $10,000 via coyotes for these migrants to cross. They haven't just given up on the game, they are running it.

      This is pro immigrant propaganda- these are not ppl qualified for asylum!! These are economic migrants and taxpayers pay hundreds of BILLIONS. Look into this! Millions of people a year!

      @@Tunneljew He is boots on the ground reporting on 1. These people's journey's thus far and 2. Their fresh, raw thoughts about their current situation, the road ahead, their thoughts of the US etc. He is showing us the border live, a location/topic that has tons of scrutiny and misinformation swirling around it, and it's a location not many Americans know much about or see beyond the very filtered/skewed portrayal of it from large media companies. I'd argue that is peak journalism in my book.

      Africans and middle class Chinese and other Asians get much faster asylum or easier entry! Eastern Europeans get approved to come legally really easy. But Latinos especially Mexican and Central Americans are the ones keeping the country running and building the US. No es justo
