    Many people have been saying I'm a journalist lately, and thank you for the positive comments. I actually don't look at myself as a journalist, I'm somewhere in between a travel vlogger and a journalist. These videos are just a byproduct of my curiosity about the world and different people's perspectives. I used to get into all sorts of situations without a camera, and then I started making RUclips videos and realized other people are curious about these stories too. I'm honored to be able to create a living out of this so thank you to all who watch my videos. Sometimes I get it right, sometimes I get it wrong, but I strive in every video for authenticity and truth (which is often a moving target, especially in complex situations).
    I got sick of seeing what the world looked like through the mainstream media, I'm guessing many of you are too, so here's an alternative. This isn't a replacement for journalism, the world does need more good investigative journalists going in deep on stories like this one. But where are they for this story about the border?! And I'm not talking biased trigger bait. It's arguably the biggest story in the country right now but we're hearing almost nothing about it. There's North Korean-style secrecy to massive processing facilities that are growing exponentially, journalists not allowed inside of them. That in itself is insane, we're in the USA, right? So that's why I decided to do this series.
    My channel is another angle in and usually done in a more personal style with the aim of connecting with people on the ground in the places I go, to bring you closer to what it feels like without going there. Thanks again to all of you who support me 🙌.
    This is part 2 of a 6-part series and the other episodes can be seen here: ruclips.net/video/rO9403nTTKI/видео.html

      The people who fall for it are what Dickens called "telescopic philanthropists." They are shielded in enclaves surrounded by walls. Think Nancy Pisslosi, for example, with her $30K fridge filled with ice cream she thinks is fancy (give me clean Straus Family Creamery ice cream over fake and junk-filled Hagen-Dazs any day--the far Left are all style over substance and they only skim the surface of thought). Nancy's mansion is behind a wall. Mad Maxine Waters lives in a mansion OUTSIDE her district. Do you understand? It's rules and whatnot for thee but not for me. They and celebrities and sports figures are safe from harm. No effect on them, and they get to buy the vote. Yes, the ILLEGAL vote, which I've seen with my own eyes and which the SEIU facilitates ALL THE TIME. So does Jorge Ramos. While I was a session editor at the Capitol in Austin from Dec. 2016 thru May 2017, I overhears the same gossip in two places: at a bodega in the Montopolis slum where I had to live and in the bathroom near the cafeteria in the Capitol building. Univision was registering illegals to vote under the "civic" branch of the corporation. I gave all the info to the TX AG Ken Paxton, and he got on the case. Then Univision changed the name of this fake civic arm (from Contigo to I forget what), and I made sure the DA had that info, too. Bravo, Texas! ~Juli Barbato

      When I lived in Tucson, circa 2009, a young Mex-American girl, Brenda, was murdered by carjackers who were illegal. Guess where the first and only place she wore her quinceañera dress was? That's right; her coffin. And guess what the kids from her high school demonstrated in Phoenix over not long after her murder? They picketed in support of ILLEGALS. That. Is. Sickening. It's a kind of ethnocentric separatism that is appalling in every regard. Surface over substance. Ego over empathy. Inherent lawlessness.

    I appreciate this series very much, as with all your other videos, Peter. I always thought the actual situation on the ground at the border was more like what you've shown, but it's so good you're getting it out there to provide way more context and food for thought. Of course, it's a very long border and this is just one section, but the series is very comprehensive as a snapshot. In this day and age immigration and asylum are terrifically complicated, and it's such a vast area. I hope at one point we will find solutions to manage it way better for everyone involved.
    Merci à Raul and the Cajun Navy for showing you around, and for all the good work they do every day. They are such an amazing group.
    As Mark Twain said, "Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." We need to hear straight from the people who live where you provide content, about how they live and what they think of the world. You do this so well by just letting them speak for themselves without interrupting and interpreting and by being such a respectful, realistic, and compassionate guy. Thank you for traveling for us. Stay safe and take care.

      Obamacare is the same situation. I lost my job and applied. I was told I couldn't get the "extra help" because I had no income. Okay, fair enough. It was going to be $1200 per month for very poor insurance. Then I got a low-wage job and had low income for a while. I applied again and, guess what? Same situation. So I rolled the dice and went without health insurance for a couple years. For all that time I'd see the ads. "New law! Get insurance for only $10!". The government bends over backwards to help some people, others not at all.

      @The T.I. Experience The majority don't just receive money from the government. If you do it's mostly because of casinos. Even then it goes through tribal leadership first and then to the people. Which unfortunately a lot of those leaders are corrupt. It's another form of government, go figure. They line their pockets and their families first. Also the leasing of tribal land to whitey/cracker ass honkies(LOL) to coat their pockets. It's quite sad. You have to live on reservations to receive these so-called benefits in most cases. You ever been on one? Not the best places to reside. The jobs are sparse and opportunity is surely lacking. Dodging Rez Dogs just to walk to a neighbor? No thanks! It's quite a dangerous everyday occurrence. Enter at your own risk.

      To be fair, Peter injected his point of view into this as well on many occasions. From the segment about the wall to him giving that woman and child on the riverbank a complete back story, to scoffing at the notion that the Democrats are securing votes for generations to come, not the first time they've done it either.... and comparing it to businesses shipping in illegal workers, to dismissing Trumps stay in Mexico policy and ignoring Biden's 100 day free for all.

      I moved to the US from Poland in 1989, it took 3 years to get all the paperwork and permission to get into the US. In 1997 i became a US citizen and i am against illegal immigration, because it's truly not fair to people that do everything legally and follow the law. But people like in your case deserve to receive your papers quickly and that does bother me, your papers should take no longer than 2 months, you helped the US military which could have cost you and your families lives, so i do agree with you that it's not fair what the US is doing in your case and we talk about that sometimes with my American friends who are all Trump supporters including me and we also agree that every person that helped the US military should be brought to the US now. But i will never support illegal immigration, every country has borders and laws and it should be respected, the problem is a lot of the illegal migrants bring drugs or have criminal records that's why they try to get in illegally because they know that they will never get permission to enter legally and they should be stopped. There is also good people trying to enter and it always makes me wonder why do they go the illegal way of doing things instead of the legal way, if they have no criminal record, entering illegally and getting caught might cost them a chance to enter the US at all later on because they will have a record of trying to get in illegally, so next time they go the legal route they will be refused entery because they will have a record of entering illegally. But you sir should have been here already and to tell you the truth if i helped some other countries military and they made me wait that long to enter their country i would be mad as hell and you have every right to be mad. I really hope everything works out for you and you and your family make it in to the US as soon as possible.

Maybe a lot of people from EU think we are desagree with you guys when we talk about the inmigrant but even here in México the majority of the people we are desagree with the situation and the inmigrant because the problem it's not only for you, we have tons of people from centalr america and south america coming here without money with literally nothing and the people can't cross the border they just living in the streets of the México border citys. Honestly, i don't have the neccesity to go there to get a better life because i feel i have a good life here and i'm just a normal guy with a job, playing video games, hitting the gym when i can and i'm good here. Many people from EU think all the mexican we are always thinkin how can cross the border or something like that but it's not true and in my case i don't need to go there and live the "american dream" because i'm not a poor guy (talking about money) even there in USA and i'm not saying i'm a rich guy but i have all i need and that's enough for me. I understand the situation and majority of that people they have a big problem where they from but that dosen't mean you can cross the border ilegally and all countrys have the right to protect their own borders.

      think of how much scrutiny and hell fire would come down on the cartels if they just randomly took a pot shot at and killed a western journalist floating down the river. The cartels have a major business and self-preservation incentive to make sure that DOESNT happen

    Unfortunately, many of the women and children who don’t have the money to make the trip have to “borrow” the money and made to “owe” the cartel by being drug mules or trafficked. It is very sad. Praying for all of them as well as the people who are trying to work with their hands tied. Thank you for showing the real story.

      I personally know four families that came to the US to request asylum at the port of entry aka "the right way". The events took place in 2019-2021. They were flying in from one of the former USSR countries to Monterrey, MX via Mexico City, MX then they took a bus to Nuevo Laredo, MX, used the pedestrian bridge to present themselves to the customs. Did not have to pay a dime to anyone, did not even consider to cross illegally because WHY??? All of them have been released to the US within 10-20 days after crossing, and now awaiting to present their asylum cases in front of the immigration judge. The backlogs are terrible indeed (5-12 years). They all have proper paperwork for the time being, i.e. SSN, work permit. I have NO idea why would anyone pay to cartel to cross illegally, just to turn themselves in.

    33:47 This guy just described DACA, and he doesn't even know it. To become eligible for DACA you must currently be in school, or have graduated and hold a job. And you must pass a strict criminal background check. If you have ever been convicted of a felony, or certain significant misdemeanors (including a single DUI), or three or more misdemeanors of any kind, you aren't eligible.
    Also: The letter *D* in the acronym DACA stands for Deferred, which means put off until a later time. Nobody is offering amnesty to immigrants.

      @pheenobarbidoll2016 3 года назад +4

      lol the background check my husband went through wasn't as strict as you seem to think. And in your final interview they ask hard hitting questions like " are you planning to engage in bigamy" or " are you planning to become a terrorist" ( actual questions we were asked ) The biggest issue with the process is that it takes forever and the paperwork is confusing. These people crossing are paying cartels more than it costs to become a resident. Paying a smuggler is illegal in the US. Everyone not crossing at a border crossing station HAS committed a crime. And, the Mexican land owners who have no option but to allow it lest their entire family gets murdered by the cartel shouldn't be collateral damage that doesn't matter. Every single person you saw in this video standing on that Mexican shore was standing on someones private land, and they had no choice but to allow it.

    Great content as usual. You may be interested in the massive problems we have here in the U.K at the moment concerning asylum seekers coming over the Channel in small boats mainly from African nations. There have been more than 40,000 come over this year that they know about. I know it is a long way for you to travel but it may be of interest to you for future content. Thank you for the time and effort you put into your work, you are valued more than you know 🇬🇧
