I though that was the weakest point of the show, to be honest, that segment was talking about kids that can obviously take basic care of themselves, they are still kids, and you are not going to make any effective army with them, but there are (sadly, needn't i say) child soldiers youngers than that in many places.

@@catsbuttholeUsername checks out. I’m not a Christian or anything, but anyone arguing against a modicum of compassion for their fellow man is either a desperately unhappy individual or a sociopath. Don’t really care to know which you are.
I loved my neighbor too much one time, and she ended up getting divorced from her husband.... Of course, I fled the state. She had "2Ts Derangement Syndrome".
Not our kids, not our problem? Do these people actually hear what they are saying? Deplorable. Do they ever once think about how they would feel if they, or their kids, were in the same position?
The very same thing occurred to me... I'm sure if they were poor, starving and fearing being killed by their South American (or any other) government, you would see them crossing the border to the US any way they could.
Personal Illegal Immigration politics aside, that’s the thing though; since they’ve never had to deal with that issue, they might as well write it off. The total lack of empathy is astounding but not at all surprising, especially coming from the same people who always go “think about the children.”
In my walk of life, I don't care how you got here, what matters is what you're doing while you're here. And the immigrants I know are making the most with the little they have. So I salute them as fellow citizens.
The party that wants to protect little babies also doesn't give a s*** about little children. It's really all about the money, you can ban abortion without it costing a bunch of money but helping children costs money. This has nothing to do with life it's all about money.
It's even worse than that. They want lots of poor, uneducated people to take advantage of with their businesses when those children get old enough to work.
Why are u guys pretending kids come to the border by themselves hahahaha literally this entire skit is based on the premise. Kids don’t come to the border by themselves and if they did no one is yelling at them. This country is a joke because people are getting behind this message from Jon, that isn’t a real situation. He had to make up that kids come to the border alone just so he can make fun of people concerned about the border. Also, immigration is not a matter of opinion. It’s simply math. We can’t sustain this rate. Countries have to act like a restaurant when it comes to immigration. You have to have a reservation, no you can’t just come into out restaurant when all the tables are full and sit on the floor and eat. U have to wait to we set up more tables and get more waiters to serve you. Any restaurant that just let anyone come in and eat at the same time would be out of business tomorrow.
People have no idea how hurtful it can be told to *"go back to where you came from"* ..... I've been hearing it since 1989. My kids have been told that & they're natural born citizens.
People in my community learned to shout it at us in Spanish. I had to be told what it was because I don't speak Spanish and I was born in the US, my skin is just a bit dark. Hatred makes such fools of these people.
I am so sorry for how hateful people can be immigrants is what makes the United States of America.. immigrants is just as responsible as we are for our country being the way it is today they should always be able to have a home here at least the children no child should live like that I am real sorry for yours and your families suffering by those who do not understand or refuse to
It is very hurtful. The first time I was called a refugee was as a joke. My neighbor thought it was funny. In college I was threatened because I was a resident advisor assigned to tour the Central American students . They called us spices and told us to go home. That was a few people out of an entire campus of rational students. But it still hurt and was scary. HOWEVER, people prejudice, hate and ignorance does not mean that we should not have established functioning borders National borders do not equal hate and racism. People are allowing themselves to be confused. See the difference please
I am in my 40s, and am thankful I will never be one of those old white guys, nor will majority of my generation. The generations after me, will not be either. Ah, progress.
Im old, not white, but im an immigrant, an immigration lawyer, and a former political asylum officer. I did my part over the past 50 years to help redress this prejudice and discrimination, and commend you guys for doing yours too.
Can we humbly ask for 2 days of Jon per week? This is excellent, sad yet heartwarming material. Love the others at the Daily show. They are fun. Jon is also deeply meaningful. One more day!
You think that‘s any different in any other country on earth? Look at West Europe: majority of Eastern European immigrants are voting far right to get „rid of those muslims“. And I don‘t blame them.
There's no Daily Show without Jon Stewart! And I say that with the upmost respect to all those who have tried to fill his shoes. He's a natural genius!
I would like to share some words I've known since I was a schoolboy. "Every day, here and at home, we are warned about the enemy. But who is the enemy? Is it the alien? Well, we are all alien to one another. Is it the one who believes differently than we do? No. Oh no, my friends. The enemy is fear. The enemy is ignorance. The enemy is the one who tells you that you must hate that which is different. Because, in the end, that hate will turn on you. And that same hate will destroy you."
Jon Stewart was always the best for this simple reason - he didn't tell you what to think, he simply held up the absurdity of the system and asked you to look at it and make up your own mind.
US expat in Germany here. US health care in the best clinics really is top-notch - for those who can afford it. I got excellent care in the local clinic in a German town recently, all covered by my German health insurance.
If you own a bank, you can access the best health care wherever it is in the world. You could argue that having the 'best health care' system in the world in your country matters only for those who are not rich...
Back in the 1920s and 30s, the US had a serious Depression. My mother's father could not find a job in the states to support his wife and five kids, so he went south, to Venezuela. He worked on oil rigs and sent money home. People leave home when they have to, and once for us in the US the direction was south to Latin America.
Lol it's just corporations making money off immigration while at the same time desabilizing our economy. They are trying to keep the people poor and the future people like immigrants will also be poor.
Pro-life for Colombian children? No. Pro-life for American children. That's the difference here that Jon won't list. It's not that our country doesn't want Mexicans, Colombians, Brazilians, etc. It's that the wave they're coming in illegally is INSANITY. We pay over 180 billion a year caring for and taking care of illegals, they pay nothing back into the system other than some sales tax for things they purchase. Imagine throwing a pizza party and you and your buddies pitch in and buy all the food and drinks and whatever else. Then a couple people show up you didn't invite and start eating and drinking. No big deal. Now they tell their friends that there's free pizza over here. When the pizza is all gone they ask around for more pizza. Now people at the party are looking at you like you're crazy for not supplying more pizza and drinks for everybody else. This is the USA we live in now.
Imagine if America is wiped out tomorrow in a nuclear war, the continent is turned into an uninhabitable radioactive wasteland, and surviving Americans start going down to Central and South America and are told by the locals to "GO HOME".
It really isn't our problem. The issue is using children as pawns to cross the borders illegally. We don't have enough resources for our own, yet we can give illegals the majority of funds we do have? Ironic isn't it?
Immigration lawyer here, just pointing out that several terms in here are either not used properly or just wholly incorrect. E.g. An N-400 is an application for an ADULT to become a US citizen straight away. Unaccompanied children simply can't file one. And even if they could, those applications don't go to a consulate; they go to USCIS. Still, the point is generally right that immigration bureaucracy is RIDICULOUS, especially when it comes to children.
I do believe it was simply a joke about how difficult immigration is, and how a child on their own would struggle. They used all adult forms as far as I can tell, probably as part of the joke. I'm sure such young children aren't meant to fill out forms themselves, but obviously there actually is a lot of bureaucracy that makes the process difficult, but explaining well the kid would need someone assigned to them and likely a translator as well, they'd need to be present for these forms but not these blah blah blah. Having the child take the adult route because they're on their own still works in the joke, but you're right it could have been more accurate and informative.
I was 12 when Reagan changed the classification of ketchup to a vegetable to cut the cost of school lunches while still following the FDA guidelines. Up until then I thought presidents protected citizens. Clearly I'll never forget it as it shock the idea I'd been taught about my country.
The US needed to fill in its New Lands and therefore welcomed immigration. The industrial revolution was also in need of workers to run the machines…and provide profit effective cheap labor…while creating more consumers for a capitalistic society…each reason filling the oligarch bank accounts with inconcievable profit numbers. But this World has never been based upon "No Borders/No Boundaries", which is in ideal only...and history seems to concur that any massive influx of culture can drastically affect an existing culture's norms and delineate the effectiveness of assimilation...while also impacting resources and creating fiscal and societal deficiencies. In this state of emergency…xenophobia will accelerate as indigenous people do not cope well with rapid changes to their established way of life. And is it ever in fairness to have one group cut in front of anther group in line, especially. when the latter group is law abiding? And Logically, when does a Nation decline mass immigration or is it always to be an open door policy….which could be detrimental to an established society. A historical example: Ask the Native Americans, who lost their culture and lands with mass immigration…some may say for the better, but the alcohol abuse may signal a different opinion.
It hardly matters tbh. People might have listened in the 90s, but that's over now. I live in perpetual despair for the future of humanity.

@@pj45670 Some Dutch and Swedes came to the Delaware River in 1638 to 1688 and settled in what is now Wilmington. They didn't hang teen girls for adultery like the Puritans.
My family came from a 17 year old girl who arrived here from Dublin in 1839. She was a seamstress who made men’s vests. She met an Irish American cop and married him three days later. They had five sons. One was born in New York the other four in Detroit. One died in childhood, one became a lawyer, one became a world known cartoonist, one owned a livery stable, and the youngest became a teacher. The Irish were not welcome here in the 1830’s but they prospered.
One begs to wonder...What happened... "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
As a Pennsylvania Deutsch (Deutsch is the German word for "German") person, whose ancestors moved here in 1732 (I have the ancestry paperwork, luckily), I can tell you Benjamin Franklin, we did not "ruin" PA. (And, no I'm not Amish or Mennonite. My people were farmers up until my father's generation. The ole farm is still in the fam tho)
yea now everyone wants to buy your milk, poultry and other meats cause it's healthier than the processed stuff in our stores. Everyone now realizes that a lot of your people live lives better than others (there are some problems but that's for your people to address because you'd know those issues best).
As a liberal who lives in Arizona I get both sides of the story. I have compassion for immigrants but I also understand the logistical problems with taking in an unlimited number of people who have nothing but the clothes on their backs and that has nothing to do with the color of their skin. The small city I live in is already stretched thin to take care of its own poor and unfortunate. Food banks are already overwhelmed, schools are running on thin budgets, employment is limited and so on. It's easy to pass judgment from your mansion in the Hamptons but when you're on ground zero the view changes. Will you send us money to help take care of immigrants? If not then your opinions mean nothing in the harsh light of reality.
I agree with you, we need to have 'limited' immigration and it is unfair to legal immigrants to allow large numbers of illegal immigrants to cross our border. I don't think a long fence across mountains, rivers, etc. is the answer. I think we could enforce the border with electronic devices and help from military using drones with cameras, etc.
so am I understanding your point correctly? money is more important than people? are you claiming that America is not big enough or rich enough to support all of these migrants (aka Illegal immigrants)? maybe the answer should be for greedy entitled & extremely wasteful natural born American citizens to tighten their belts.
😂 The de-dollarization is rising, the petrodollar system is over (The US wanna keep printing money like decades ago, but they can't, the world has changed now.) The US (300 million people) want to be competitive in this new world with china (1300 million people). 1300 million people of which, a part of them lead the technological advances in the world, another part of them are the most hardworking, productive and CHEAP workforce of the planet. In every home in the world you can find at least 10 items that say: Made in China. How many items with the phrase: Made in the USA you can find in your home..? The US economy must be competitive. Must be productive. How they gonna achieve that if a flipburger boy in McDonalds earn the same as a doctor in other 125 countries of the world? And they say they want manufacture industry come back to america 😂😂 Then, when inmigrants come into their country to give them the cheap manufacturing tool. The americans see them as a burden😂😂😂 For worse.... They don't wanna have childrens anymore, because is too expensive take care of them. So their population don't grow enough to keep the economy runing. Look at Canada. The concerts full of old people. You said.... It's not about color of skin. OF COURSE EVERYTHING IS ABOUT COLOR OF SKIN.!! Like Trump said. We need people from sweden, Finland, ... those inmigrants are welcome. Dou you see Finish people cutting fish meat in a Factory in Florida? 😂😂 I don't know what americans are gonna do to save their declining nation. (I am for sure that they are not gonna work hard as chinese do making shoes of any other product in factories) Maybe another war. Is the only thing they know to do..
@@WJV9 In the Constitution - the federal armed services are not permitted to perform police functions. Trump tried to get them involved in rounding up illegal border crossers, but they ended up doing office work.
@WJV9 we do have limited immigration. Most of the migrants that cross the border are sent back or are awaiting processing regarding their claims of refuge and asylum (both legal). That's not including many that are held in detention centers or jail awaiting trial.
P.s. a major problem in it is also "bleeding heart liberals" as we tend to put it. For instance in one variation: yes, it's absolutely awful to let a boat full of illegal immigrants drown when it's either that or take them in. But in doing so, you open the back door, which means more people get on rickety boats. And even if you pick up most, you'll regularly fail. Many will drown. Their smugglers make a big payday while being criminals with absolute power over their charges, so severe abuses happen. Thus, callousness does an awful thing once. "Mercy" prevents it once, and causes it over and over again. That has to be part of the equation.
I'm from El Salvador and one of the worst president we had was Duarte, who enacted a lot of failed communist reforms, but was backed by the CIA because they viewed him as "centrist" (read not allied to the USSR)
Bless Jon Stewart. He has a perfect way of breaking it all down so even the crassest of individuals can see the harm in their policies. Well, ok, there might be a few exceptions…

@@chenzen1578 The same kind of people claim to be christian, figure that. is it really loving/Christian to stripping someone of there historical knowledge ( as well as there extended families like grandparents etc ) and identity? aka now these kids growing up 9yo~ and becoming USA parents, i know that i feel part's missing as my family didn't pass on Jewish and grilic/irish-fluency were scotch ( the other side is french 🇫🇷 and Sweden 🇸🇪 , and yes there as a natural nationality needs to be some integration/homogeneous happing otherwise 🇺🇸 government will fall... ) so in a way the english and or USA 🇺🇸 won as i only speak english etc
One of my biggest annoyances with conservatives is how they will claim they have no issue as long as they are legal and will proclaim it left and right... But then they literally assume every person is illegal despite no evidence of it. Also, the increasing amount of stories I hear of white Americans telling people to "go back to where they came from" or "learn to speak English" when traveling outside the US is embarrassing.

@@TheSuperappelflap The problem is too many people actually get their news from this program, my dad and sister among them. You can be funny and have an honest argument. It just divides people further to constantly make fun of the other side while being disingenuous.
As someone currently trying to get my wife a visa and realizing it’ll take at least a year and thousands of dollars, I felt that bit about different forms to fill out.
I just learned from someone that it will take him almost $10,000 to be US citizen and not even a guarantee that the judge will grant him his wish. He will end up spending again another $10,000. The lawyer is the one getting richer and the filer will be in deep hole. Poor Jose. Where can ordinary migrants find that huge money?

@@dsoutherland1747 Unfortunately, my age and circumstances preclude that. There are many great things about the USA, but it's time we stop kidding ourselves that we are the greatest in all things.
The vast majority of us are here to help and to live in peace, something that sadly our old place ceased to provide. We want to be your friends, the fear of skin color and accents is unnecessary.
Important point to remember. Some American ancestors were kidnapped and brought here by force. Some American ancestors have always been here for thousands of yrs. Most Americans are descended from immigrants, but not everyone is.
I love the guest hosts, and Trevor Noah, but Jon Stewart has been there for my dad’s generation, my brothers generation, and mine! And I’m only 27, forget bill maher, Jon is our liberal hero!
99% US of visitors could do instant on-line applications and background checks. Give them a fast-tracked/ cost-deferred passport and work permit, and you won't need to hire any more police. And, you would collect hundreds of millions more in income tax revenue to support indigent migrants.
@LogicAndReason2025 I think that the percentage of people immigrating, especially from Mexico, that would be able to go online to fill out paperwork is much less than 99%. Overall I'd say the number is probably more like 80% overall, and 20% from Mexico.
@@christopherpie8559 Even if it were only 90% overall, which I doubt, it would still free law enforcement to concentrate on actual dangerous people. Kiosks could be set up at border stations too. The main point still stands. Most moving people are not dangerous, and the tiny number of dangerous people would be obviously the ones who don't access the free and easy route. And once people have passports, they can be tracked by requiring people to check in regularly which more than 99% will be able to do (and want to do) once they are able to travel freely. I'm quite sure many charities would step up and get smart phones for migrants and show them how to use them. We could also require migrant employers to have access for them.
Regarding "No Irish need apply", a few years back a US based historian claimed that these signs were an urban myth. A child student was able to find numerous instances in news papers from the early 1900s, and the practice had been common for quite some time by that point. Technically, this sign mostly applied to Irish Catholics, as many Protestants migrated in the 1700s, and apparently 1/4 of the European population of the 13 colonies was Scots Irish by 1776. Many Catholics were brought over from the 1650s onward as (supposed) indentured servants, but when you're not provided with the option to say no, it wasn't much different to slavery for the women and girls brought over as wives for settlers.

Not our kids, not our problem? Do these people actually hear what they are saying? Deplorable. Do they ever once think about how they would feel if they, or their kids, were in the same position?
They care about the kids that are still in utero, but not the walking, talking kind. Those ones should already have a job, for Christ's sake!
The very same thing occurred to me... I'm sure if they were poor, starving and fearing being killed by their South American (or any other) government, you would see them crossing the border to the US any way they could.
Personal Illegal Immigration politics aside, that’s the thing though; since they’ve never had to deal with that issue, they might as well write it off. The total lack of empathy is astounding but not at all surprising, especially coming from the same people who always go “think about the children.”
@@tonybippitykaye yep and their the ones as well thar want to force women to have kids but not help in any way after the baby is born.
You mean all the Pro Life Supporters? How ironic right!
In my walk of life, I don't care how you got here, what matters is what you're doing while you're here.
And the immigrants I know are making the most with the little they have. So I salute them as fellow citizens.
Amen to that.
The party that wants to protect little babies also doesn't give a s*** about little children. It's really all about the money, you can ban abortion without it costing a bunch of money but helping children costs money. This has nothing to do with life it's all about money.
Yes......and racism and hate.
...and sadistic cruelty to desperate people in need.
It is more than that. As George Carlin said " Republicans want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers.".
It's even worse than that. They want lots of poor, uneducated people to take advantage of with their businesses when those children get old enough to work.
Why are u guys pretending kids come to the border by themselves hahahaha literally this entire skit is based on the premise. Kids don’t come to the border by themselves and if they did no one is yelling at them. This country is a joke because people are getting behind this message from Jon, that isn’t a real situation. He had to make up that kids come to the border alone just so he can make fun of people concerned about the border. Also, immigration is not a matter of opinion. It’s simply math. We can’t sustain this rate. Countries have to act like a restaurant when it comes to immigration. You have to have a reservation, no you can’t just come into out restaurant when all the tables are full and sit on the floor and eat. U have to wait to we set up more tables and get more waiters to serve you. Any restaurant that just let anyone come in and eat at the same time would be out of business tomorrow.
People have no idea how hurtful it can be told to *"go back to where you came from"* .....
I've been hearing it since 1989.
My kids have been told that & they're natural born citizens.
People in my community learned to shout it at us in Spanish.
I had to be told what it was because I don't speak Spanish and I was born in the US, my skin is just a bit dark. Hatred makes such fools of these people.
@@kismetcho The irony of European diaspora telling anyone to go back where they came from will never not be funny to me.
I am so sorry for how hateful people can be immigrants is what makes the United States of America.. immigrants is just as responsible as we are for our country being the way it is today they should always be able to have a home here at least the children no child should live like that I am real sorry for yours and your families suffering by those who do not understand or refuse to
It is very hurtful. The first time I was called a refugee was as a joke. My neighbor thought it was funny. In college I was threatened because I was a resident advisor assigned to tour the Central American students . They called us spices and told us to go home. That was a few people out of an entire campus of rational students. But it still hurt and was scary.
HOWEVER, people prejudice, hate and ignorance does not mean that we should not have established functioning borders
National borders do not equal hate and racism. People are allowing themselves to be confused. See the difference please
They tell me that I say what Michigan
Keep posting old related segments like these please!!! This is great!
Thank you for bringing Jon back!
As an old white guy I am constantly embarrassed by the ignorance of other old white guys
It's not a problem that those white guys are ignorant, it's the fact they are absolutely certain they are NOT ignorant.

I would like to share some words I've known since I was a schoolboy.
"Every day, here and at home, we are warned about the enemy.
But who is the enemy?
Is it the alien? Well, we are all alien to one another.
Is it the one who believes differently than we do? No. Oh no, my friends.
The enemy is fear.
The enemy is ignorance.
The enemy is the one who tells you that you must hate that which is different.
Because, in the end, that hate will turn on you. And that same hate will destroy you."
Bravo
Brian, what a beautiful philosophy. Goes hand in hand with “the only thing we have to fear is fear itself” FDR
In the United States no language official can speak any language they want.
Jon Stewart was always the best for this simple reason - he didn't tell you what to think, he simply held up the absurdity of the system and asked you to look at it and make up your own mind.

"The Greatest Healthcare!" I'm from Europe, and I can stop laughing 😂
I'm also from Europe and I was just having a sip of coffee when that was said...I have to go clean now🤣😂

US expat in Germany here. US health care in the best clinics really is top-notch - for those who can afford it. I got excellent care in the local clinic in a German town recently, all covered by my German health insurance.
it is the greatest healthcare. ....if you own a bank.
If you own a bank, you can access the best health care wherever it is in the world. You could argue that having the 'best health care' system in the world in your country matters only for those who are not rich...
Back in the 1920s and 30s, the US had a serious Depression. My mother's father could not find a job in the states to support his wife and five kids, so he went south, to Venezuela. He worked on oil rigs and sent money home. People leave home when they have to, and once for us in the US the direction was south to Latin America.

Pro-life for Colombian children? No. Pro-life for American children. That's the difference here that Jon won't list. It's not that our country doesn't want Mexicans, Colombians, Brazilians, etc. It's that the wave they're coming in illegally is INSANITY. We pay over 180 billion a year caring for and taking care of illegals, they pay nothing back into the system other than some sales tax for things they purchase. Imagine throwing a pizza party and you and your buddies pitch in and buy all the food and drinks and whatever else. Then a couple people show up you didn't invite and start eating and drinking. No big deal. Now they tell their friends that there's free pizza over here. When the pizza is all gone they ask around for more pizza. Now people at the party are looking at you like you're crazy for not supplying more pizza and drinks for everybody else. This is the USA we live in now.
They are also on food stamps and Medicaid
nobody wants to pay for any of that. including yourself.
Imagine if America is wiped out tomorrow in a nuclear war, the continent is turned into an uninhabitable radioactive wasteland, and surviving Americans start going down to Central and South America and are told by the locals to "GO HOME".
It really isn't our problem. The issue is using children as pawns to cross the borders illegally. We don't have enough resources for our own, yet we can give illegals the majority of funds we do have? Ironic isn't it?
It's amazing that clips form 10 YEARS AGO, still seem applicable, same arguments, same old congressmen
I concur
Immigration lawyer here, just pointing out that several terms in here are either not used properly or just wholly incorrect.
E.g. An N-400 is an application for an ADULT to become a US citizen straight away. Unaccompanied children simply can't file one. And even if they could, those applications don't go to a consulate; they go to USCIS.
Still, the point is generally right that immigration bureaucracy is RIDICULOUS, especially when it comes to children.
I do believe it was simply a joke about how difficult immigration is, and how a child on their own would struggle. They used all adult forms as far as I can tell, probably as part of the joke. I'm sure such young children aren't meant to fill out forms themselves, but obviously there actually is a lot of bureaucracy that makes the process difficult, but explaining well the kid would need someone assigned to them and likely a translator as well, they'd need to be present for these forms but not these blah blah blah.
Having the child take the adult route because they're on their own still works in the joke, but you're right it could have been more accurate and informative.
Unaccompanied children simply can't file one? Why not?
The idea that the republican party only recently lost its mind has always been a foriegn one to me, because all these people have always been insane.

“We’ve always been a nation of immigrants..that hate the newer immigrants”. Thanks Jon for truth
For some reason repubs forget that.
The US needed to fill in its New Lands and therefore welcomed immigration. The industrial revolution was also in need of workers to run the machines…and provide profit effective cheap labor…while creating more consumers for a capitalistic society…each reason filling the oligarch bank accounts with inconcievable profit numbers. But this World has never been based upon "No Borders/No Boundaries", which is in ideal only...and history seems to concur that any massive influx of culture can drastically affect an existing culture's norms and delineate the effectiveness of assimilation...while also impacting resources and creating fiscal and societal deficiencies. In this state of emergency…xenophobia will accelerate as indigenous people do not cope well with rapid changes to their established way of life. And is it ever in fairness to have one group cut in front of anther group in line, especially. when the latter group is law abiding? And Logically, when does a Nation decline mass immigration or is it always to be an open door policy….which could be detrimental to an established society. A historical example: Ask the Native Americans, who lost their culture and lands with mass immigration…some may say for the better, but the alcohol abuse may signal a different opinion.
As a european "socialist" I know that I would be homeless and sleeping under a bridge by now if I grew up in the "greatest country in the world".

One died in childhood, one became a lawyer, one became a world known cartoonist, one owned a livery stable, and the youngest became a teacher. The Irish were not welcome here in the 1830’s but they prospered.

As a Pennsylvania Deutsch (Deutsch is the German word for "German") person, whose ancestors moved here in 1732 (I have the ancestry paperwork, luckily), I can tell you Benjamin Franklin, we did not "ruin" PA. (And, no I'm not Amish or Mennonite. My people were farmers up until my father's generation. The ole farm is still in the fam tho)
Did your ancestors get a hotel room ?
@@nealandersen4867so hotel rooms are the culprits that ruin cities? Got it
yea now everyone wants to buy your milk, poultry and other meats cause it's healthier than the processed stuff in our stores. Everyone now realizes that a lot of your people live lives better than others (there are some problems but that's for your people to address because you'd know those issues best).
... It was already ruined when we got there
Not... the Dutch in New York have been here since 1732 maybe. Your misinformed.
As a liberal who lives in Arizona I get both sides of the story. I have compassion for immigrants but I also understand the logistical problems with taking in an unlimited number of people who have nothing but the clothes on their backs and that has nothing to do with the color of their skin. The small city I live in is already stretched thin to take care of its own poor and unfortunate. Food banks are already overwhelmed, schools are running on thin budgets, employment is limited and so on. It's easy to pass judgment from your mansion in the Hamptons but when you're on ground zero the view changes. Will you send us money to help take care of immigrants? If not then your opinions mean nothing in the harsh light of reality.
I agree with you, we need to have 'limited' immigration and it is unfair to legal immigrants to allow large numbers of illegal immigrants to cross our border. I don't think a long fence across mountains, rivers, etc. is the answer. I think we could enforce the border with electronic devices and help from military using drones with cameras, etc.
so am I understanding your point correctly? money is more important than people? are you claiming that America is not big enough or rich enough to support all of these migrants (aka Illegal immigrants)? maybe the answer should be for greedy entitled & extremely wasteful natural born American citizens to tighten their belts.
😂 The de-dollarization is rising, the petrodollar system is over (The US wanna keep printing money like decades ago, but they can't, the world has changed now.)

1300 million people of which, a part of them lead the technological advances in the world, another part of them are the most hardworking, productive and CHEAP workforce of the planet.
In every home in the world you can find at least 10 items that say: Made in China.

Real "what would Jesus do" kind of person.
All American politicians have failed to enact a sensible / humaine border policy.
P.s. a major problem in it is also "bleeding heart liberals" as we tend to put it. For instance in one variation: yes, it's absolutely awful to let a boat full of illegal immigrants drown when it's either that or take them in.
But in doing so, you open the back door, which means more people get on rickety boats. And even if you pick up most, you'll regularly fail. Many will drown. Their smugglers make a big payday while being criminals with absolute power over their charges, so severe abuses happen.
Thus, callousness does an awful thing once. "Mercy" prevents it once, and causes it over and over again. That has to be part of the equation.

I think those Mexican children (and many others fleeing poverty) may not have access to the internet, or even a phone.
How are you going to do a background check on children? They're not likely to be recorded in many/any computer systems in their originating country.
@@christopherpie8559 What part of 99% do you not understand?
@LogicAndReason2025 I think that the percentage of people immigrating, especially from Mexico, that would be able to go online to fill out paperwork is much less than 99%. Overall I'd say the number is probably more like 80% overall, and 20% from Mexico.
@@christopherpie8559 Even if it were only 90% overall, which I doubt, it would still free law enforcement to concentrate on actual dangerous people. Kiosks could be set up at border stations too. The main point still stands. Most moving people are not dangerous, and the tiny number of dangerous people would be obviously the ones who don't access the free and easy route. And once people have passports, they can be tracked by requiring people to check in regularly which more than 99% will be able to do (and want to do) once they are able to travel freely. I'm quite sure many charities would step up and get smart phones for migrants and show them how to use them. We could also require migrant employers to have access for them.
Regarding "No Irish need apply", a few years back a US based historian claimed that these signs were an urban myth. A child student was able to find numerous instances in news papers from the early 1900s, and the practice had been common for quite some time by that point.
Technically, this sign mostly applied to Irish Catholics, as many Protestants migrated in the 1700s, and apparently 1/4 of the European population of the 13 colonies was Scots Irish by 1776.
Many Catholics were brought over from the 1650s onward as (supposed) indentured servants, but when you're not provided with the option to say no, it wasn't much different to slavery for the women and girls brought over as wives for settlers.
Jon is so happy to be back in the chair he’s aging in reverse. I seriously thought this clip was from 2015 based on Jon’s appearance.
Aren't children supposed to turn to someone who can protect them from bullies?
Thank you so much Jon for turning frowns upside-down.
I don't know how Louie Gohmert Pyle finds his way out of his front door much less finds himself in office.
My grandparents immigrated here to better our lives too.
Stewart is in excellent form today!
Jon Stewart, I'm Miguel Mancha from Chihuahua city Mexico, I lived 40 yrs."ilegaly" in Texas, California, I love your country and your people but I don't like your government when it comes to foreign policy it's very unfair

No that would be illegal. However, we can stop listening to their propaganda.
@@WPS691MSNBC and CNN are far worse pertaining to the degree of propagandized manipulation but you are right ALL OF THEM ARE TRASH
