PROVERBS 14:12 "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." I hope you start looking to Lord Jesus.
Great work to your team on this. I think you did a pretty stellar job of allowing the best version of the left and right's description of this event to be shown here.
With that said I fear a lot on the right will not like this video and call out bias - because as you say this wasn't really a story. There is a crisis at the border but it's more of a funding issue that has been exacerbated by many who use it as a Political issue to appeal to people's worst impulses. No one is eating anyone's cats it seems.

Think back on your history.
Great doc but listing migrant crime stats from decades ago is misleading when South Americans weren’t coming back then. All migrants, even Latino migrants, are not the same.
Really enjoy the video's, keep up the good work.

@@CensoredMercy it ain’t hard when you’re at a shitty run down apartment complex with unemployed individuals lingering around to find a “rapper”. 😂
bc everyone and their momma thinks they can be one sadly

Nah, south park would just make fun of people for giving a shit about anything.

I can't beleive TH-cam hid this from me for 42 seconds
shadow banning might be that only 20% vs 80% subscribers are shown channel 5 stuff maybe. that's why i always get shown things including palestiin stuff but a lot of other ppl don't. while cat videos has less banning potential
i feel this. Nobody out here covering the streets like drew

Oddly enough I watched this 42 minutes after upload, maybe they're 42ing today
Bruh this is INSANELY scary. If some jerk who owns a couple apartment complexes can hire some random PR firm and generate this kind of intrigue/smoke screen, imagine what the truly rich can do. And undoubtedly ARE doing.
It just proves how stupid the vast majority of people are in america. Most ppl believe damn near everything they see or read online. Outrage gets clicks and views so the number one way to succeed on social media is to create fake outrage.
Big facts 👏🏼
I’m not gonna say who but you don’t have to imagine anything. It’s already and has been happening lmfao

total sidebar, but Andrew's Spanish has gotten so much better lol

Really impressive how much dedication he puts into this even after achieving as much success as he probably ever will
bless u
for highlighting this plot point for us non spanish speakers
i thought the same thing until I heard him say Guaidó. it really has gotten so much better though. makes me feel like I need to get back on it, mine is slowly fading away 😅
Imagine a world where Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc. produced and broadcast investigative journalism of this quality.
Never will happen.
Too much money for them to make
The problem is most major deep investigations were done by local papers and stations. Corporate consolidation has either merged all local stations and newspapers or closed down the ones that didn't.
Slop 24-hour news can't actually do deep anything because they have to produce so much content for all the time slots per day. There really isn't that much news in a day.
No integrity in journalism. Not in those outdated organizations. Just propaganda
But they aren't news they are propaganda
Andrew knowing Spanish has been such an asset
Americans should maybe get on that shit since yesterday. Monolingo in 2024 XD
@@StephNuggsMost people learn multiple languages when they're kids and there's not really motivation to otherwise.
@@zr_1234because it’s kinda hard to learn a new language unless you’re completely immersed. Kids are still developing, makes you think of all the potential good if we had a legitimately good education system for all
His spanish is so basic lmao. I know I come off as a hater, but as a native speaker it’s definitely not good. Respect to him for trying though, especially since every Spanish speaking country has a very different way of speaking the language.
He probably isn’t in full immersion with Spanish. My mom for example came from Mexico and raised me with with my dad who is white American and knows almost no Spanish. We lived in the Midwest and my mom was one of the few Hispanic people in the town. So she learned English very quickly. 25 years later my mom knows English very well, has no accent or anything. I’m sure if he lived in Latin America for a few years he would come back fluent.
No matter what side you're on, we all deserve this level of reporting. My man Andrew should win a pulitzer.

Every single problem Venezuela is facing now is due to U.S. imperialism. Venezuela began to experience inflation in 2015 because the price of oil fell globally due to the influx of fracking. Venezuela is a member country of OPEC that usually sets the price of oil globally, fracking changed that. The U.S. invaded Iraq in 2004 and opened it up to Dick Cheney’s Halliburton, who used it as a testing ground to develop fracking. Obama legalized fracking domestically in the U.S., which turned the U.S. into the largest oil exporter in the world. More oil in circulation meant a depreciation in its value: inflation. In 2017, John Bolton of the Trump administration, decided to arbitrarily sanction Venezuela, Iran, and Cuba. Destroying normalized relations with Venezuela, newly normalized relations with Cuba, and the Iran Nuclear Agreement. Bolton did this solely to benefit his and his buddies stock portfolios, he has openly bragged about enacting coups and overthrowing democratically elected leaders. These sanctions on Venezuela exacerbated inflation and also created scarcity of food, medicine, and other goods, as well as tanking the Venezuelan economy further. Sanctions are utilized by the US to turn the public against their heads of state. This upheaval allows the U.S. to infiltrate with military contractors, and rob countries of their resources. The U.S. rigged the Venezuelan elections with seven years of sanctions, in order to accomplish this. It’s shameful of Andrew to call Maduro “authoritarian” without qualifying that at all. He’s accepting the word of the same oligarchs creating this problem. Accepting the exit polling of Venezuela for US elections over American polls, would be absolutely ludicrous, and recognized as such. So why would that be accepted in the other direction? The Oligarchs of the world already tried to install Guaido, a man who never received a single vote from a single Venezuelan because he never ran for president. This isn’t about democracy, it’s about stealing oil. In the end Guaido, came out with 22 million of American tax payer dollars and now goes on speaking tours across the US, convincing people to open up Venezuela to military contractors, like Erik Prinze, who has openly stated he wants to colonize South America and Africa, and whose mercenaries, have already committed war crimes in Iraq. Do not help the US turn Venezuela into another ransacked country for billionaires
@@radiosilence104 nice copy and paste, cry more

The biggest problem is that in the time it took Andrew/channel 5 to cover this nonsense propaganda meme, the far right has already created and perpetuated a dozen new propaganda memes/lies to spread. It's impossible to catch them all in time, so people will get fooled by this stuff.

“After dissociating for 20 minutes…” that line after those two arguing? I felt that. 💀
As someone from Denver, when they started saying there was a new gang of Venezuelans in Aurora I was like, "Okay, so there's 0.2% more gang members in Aurora now."
Even one gang member can create many victims in a short amount of time..imagine a few DOZEN or even hundres of more gang members added to a city all at once.
Latin gangs so different from US gangs. I saw one dude get shanked with cutting shears in a warehouse in 0.2 seconds because they locked eyes, the guy said, “why are you looking at me like that, you think I’m cute?” Dude shanked him, ran off, and came back to apologize asking if he could keep his job lmao. They come from lawlessness. Another time it was 6 Guatemalans all under 5’5 that jumped this one tall dude. They have no fear or de escalation. They just jump.
its like you dont understand that all crime in a city basically comes from a handful of people. El salvador literally solved their problem by locking a certain particular group of people up. ".2%" increase in persistent criminals is MASSIVE.
it is really, really weird how in 2024 people's sense of a problem starts from when they hear about it, and how they assume the thing closest in time to when they heard about it is causing it.

your description of sanctuary cities is incorrect. it doesn't make it illegal for law enforcement to communicate to federal immigration agencies, it just gives them the right to refuse to do so. that's an extremely major and important difference.
Yeah - was hoping to come into the comments & see good convo that is also checking Andrew. Not the case at all - seems like a younger audience here & it's misleading to not mention how the Biden admin changed the definition of what constitutes a "migrant seeking sanctuary or asylum." There is no moving forward without addressing that crucial point & keeping those who did it responsible. Cherry picking what Trump says in a sound bite - who has ZERO power over this issue for the past 4 years - is fucking insane. You are continuing the cycle of media being able to manipulate the truth by doing this. Appreciate you putting boots on the ground, but overall this was a very unprofessional video on this subject. Not choosing to show the media machine - that is the current Democratic party - is clearly picking a side. Not Journalism. Really sad - love your content most the time. Funny how nobody has an issue looking at Biden or Kamala as a "team or Administration," and not needing to hear directly from them - but for Trump he gets singled out as if he doesn't have an administration or doesn't also assemble a team & gets clipped up to prove some self-righteous point. Even when not holding any type of office. Attempting to hop on some morale high horse is exactly whats wrong with Journalism & the media.

never forget, venezuela was only sanctioned because they tried switching from the petrodollar to the chinese yuan for oil exports. this is a fact for many countries that have been sanctioned/invaded/regime changed the past 50+ years, examples including Syria, Libya, and Iran. the fact all oil producing countries use the petrodollar for global trade is the only reason the US economy is strong, when the petrodollar dies and nations dump their USD reserves we will default.
The U.S. is currently producing more oil than Saudi Arabia. Countries don’t have to use dollars to buy petroleum products but U.S. production volumes and market depth makes it convenient to do so.

The Oligarchs of the world already tried to install Guaido, a man who never received a single vote from a single Venezuelan because he never ran for president. This isn’t about democracy, it’s about stealing oil. In the end Guaido, came out with 22 million of American tax payer dollars and now goes on speaking tours across the US, convincing people to open up Venezuela to military contractors, like Erik Prinze, who has openly stated he wants to colonize South America and Africa, and whose mercenaries, have already committed war crimes in Iraq. Do not help the US turn Venezuela into another ransacked country for billionaires

Tbh yeah landlords in rough areas are amazingly bad people. I grew up in the suburbs but then shit hit the fan and I was living in the city… had one guy who was like a cartoon villain as a landlord.
Didn’t give a shit about complaints, payed people under the table to “clean”. Dirty ass junkie filled building (I’m a recovered heroin addict, no judgement just the truth).
I literally had to email him more than once about someone taking a shit and piss in the staircase. Which happened more than once… it’s cold here. People were obviously sleeping in the staircase.
Also when Covid hit, someone in the building was VISIBLY spitting all over the elevator. Which to me was absolutely insane, gotta stop that from happening. It never stopped. I moved out.

They try to stop paying and he unscrews the doors to their apartment, cuts their power, paying people $7.50/hr. Then they get a bunch of too online boomers thinking they're gang members, the real gang members say they are going to ride in and lay down the law, news cameras and cops in their face every day.

The problem with unfettered mass migration is you cannot separate the bad from the good.
Migrants still commit less crimes on average than American citizens...
The problem with Americans standing in a group is you cannot separate the bad from the good. Every statistic imaginable says that naturalized Americans are more likely to cause any level of crime, including violent crime, than illegal immigrants. That's an extremely simple and objective fact that for some inexplicable reason, the right can't seem to wrap their heads around.
Saying that people who don't follow/raised with religion might have no capability of differentiating right and wrong is so dehumanizing it's kind of insane.
That was something like a majority view not that long ago lol
Is it that far fetched?! Children who are raised being taught Christian morals are probably way less likely to commit horrific crimes or crimes at all compared to someone with no moral compass. People who grew up outside of religion tend to be more selfish in my experience.
Also I don’t think he said atheists or agnostics have NO capability of differentiating from right and wrong but much less than a religious person.
@@jaquarius5035do you have to teach children specifically religious values for them to have a moral compass?

WHY can't anybody see what is happening here? The complex has been rented out to poorer and poorer people through the years. Now that the buildings are almost unlivable They rent to the most desperate tenants. The owner is trying to squeeze out as much money as he can. I'm sure he is already in contract with potential buyers for the land its self or a contractor that wants to build new and gentrify the area. That is why the leases were month to month and they have stopped collecting rent. The owners can displace these people as soon as the deal for the property clears. Calling them a threat is the start of dehumanizing them so when they get mass evicted those whom sought power can exalt themselves at human expense.
Spot on!
“At the end of the day, the officers were weary to” do their job… da fuq kind of BS is that?! Can’t call them heroes if they’re “too weary” to protect and serve, like they swore and are paid to do. Smfh.

and? most criminals arrested are released on bail and never show up to court or flee the state, why even bother at that point
People want to defund the police and prosecute them if they make a mistake. So they just not going to respond.
I hear a lot of people mixing up 'wary' and 'weary'. She also might have said 'leery' which is basically the same as 'wary'.

This is some of the best pieces of journalism I have seen in a long time. I do not envy you trying to learn the truth...The truth is certainly an elusive thing. It's definitely much easier to tackle a controversy from one side. It is not easy to figure out the truth but at least you are making a diligent effort. You interviewed many people from both sides. You seem very non-confrontational and appear easy to talk to. That is a rare gift you have. Thank you for your excellent unbiased journalism. I sure wish there were more media like you.
Nothing but facts and the reality on the ground, as always - you’re making America a better place with your journalism, Andrew, thank you for shining a light on such a salient topic

@@brynna77exactly. He goes to an area, can’t find what he’s looking for before interviewing a local racist guy every single video haha. It’s insane how he follows the outline
Every single problem Venezuela is facing now is due to U.S. imperialism. Venezuela began to experience inflation in 2015 because the price of oil fell globally due to the influx of fracking. Venezuela is a member country of OPEC that usually sets the price of oil globally, fracking changed that. The U.S. invaded Iraq in 2004 and opened it up to Dick Cheney’s Halliburton, who used it as a testing ground to develop fracking. Obama legalized fracking domestically in the U.S., which turned the U.S. into the largest oil exporter in the world. More oil in circulation meant a depreciation in its value: inflation. In 2017, John Bolton of the Trump administration, decided to arbitrarily sanction Venezuela, Iran, and Cuba. Destroying normalized relations with Venezuela, newly normalized relations with Cuba, and the Iran Nuclear Agreement. Bolton did this solely to benefit his and his buddies stock portfolios, he has openly bragged about enacting coups and overthrowing democratically elected leaders. These sanctions on Venezuela exacerbated inflation and also created scarcity of food, medicine, and other goods, as well as tanking the Venezuelan economy further. Sanctions are utilized by the US to turn the public against their heads of state. This upheaval allows the U.S. to infiltrate with military contractors, and rob countries of their resources. The U.S. rigged the Venezuelan elections with seven years of sanctions, in order to accomplish this. It’s shameful of Andrew to call Maduro “authoritarian” without qualifying that at all. He’s accepting the word of the same oligarchs creating this problem. Accepting the exit polling of Venezuela for US elections over American polls, would be absolutely ludicrous, and recognized as such. So why would that be accepted in the other direction? The Oligarchs of the world already tried to install Guaido, a man who never received a single vote from a single Venezuelan because he never ran for president.

When you want to get to the bott of something, you really need Channel 5 news on the scene. This channel is so much better and so much more real than the national news networks. Better than local news networks as well.
What I like about this channel is the fact that there's no racist speech/acting towards nobody.
As a mexican woman, I really appreciate it.
You’re beautiful af, what’s your IG?
Mexican ain’t a race. You’re white
Well yeah it’s not like we hate your race or other South American races we just don’t like how they come here illegally and get more help then average Americans
This video could have ended at 17:00 and it would have still been a fantastic piece of journalism. And then Andrew said "In this episode..." and I realised there was 40 minutes left.
Now THIS is journalism, Channel 5 is the GOAT for real news.
I appreciate Andrew for stating his own position in the matter and then diving in. That’s a much better way to do journalism, and this is well worth the watch
You got to love how Trump has confused asylum and insane asylum😅
Telling the real story and never failing to find someone down to freestyle is an underrated skill!
My take. The shady of owners of the buildings got a condemned notice and needed a way to offload the property while still getting a tax write-off. That's who the real fucking criminal is.
Edit. I wrote it around midway in the video... damn I was right. And the city council woman is definitely getting paid by the slum lords.
Pretending that people in need aren’t going to make a decision about surviving over “doing what’s right” is absurd. If you allow for conditions where people are hardly surviving, then you have to expect crime and anarchy. It’s that simple
Smartest comment ive seen in the comments and ive been scrolling through for a while most of them were people either saying andrew fell for the liberal mind virus or that hes shilling for illegals or that this is all some democratic conspiracy to destroy the west...

@@jlo7770when a criminal goes on the run they don't tell the whole neighborhood where they're going. Even if they don't go far they want people to think they're not around there so they don't get caught. Counties in CO are massive and Aurora spans three counties in the heart of metro Denver. That's 2,500 square miles and millions of people to hide among.
@@jtofgc yes you proved my point exactly thank you. I've spent plenty of time in denver, went down hill quickly after it legalized weed sadly. Same for billings Montana, it was already going downhill but it's legalizing has ramped it up. I don't personally have any issue with thc but it's odd that criminal activity increases in places where it's legalized. Not saying the potheads are out there committing crime in mass but it is ironic
I think it was more of a translation error instead of being incorrect. I think they meant to say other counties not states. If you noticed the man that was interviewed that talked about his border crossing trip referred to his home town as a zone instead of a town or county. Either way the whole situation is just nuts!
So a slum lord trying to escape responsibility and a pr firm are responsible for blowing this out of proportion. No, I'm not just talking about Trump and the republican party.

Andrew you should interview some agriculture workers from your home state. I work in Ag and have seen a huge increase in Venezuelan migrants to the point where things are changing within the industry. Mainly, most don’t like to work but have a better education than your typical migrant. So they’ve started taking the better jobs available in Ag. They use fake paperwork and get a bunch of state/fed benefits. I get it tho, they came from a different culture, the unfortunate thing is the other migrants here are just watching everything. Its almost a slap to the face to the Migrants that contribute and want to work. I do admire that they stick together and tend to have their peoples back fully. The unfortunate thing is that is going to be our labor force in the next 5-10 years. It’s become harder to discipline people in ag to the point where it’s hard to fire people. OT laws have increased costs to where small farms are failing, leaving only big corporate farming operations to own most of the Ag. It’s just been a mess that I believe will lead to more corporate control over agriculture in the be US.
agriculture workers are some of the most gullible people ive ever met. economics is a hard one for them to understand so they blame migrants for there short comings and lack of ability to adapt in a growing, demanding world. The ranchers and agriculture farmers who have, have made millions and live in big old mansions with robots running the whole show.
You can't simply take random interviewees word that their working and call that a report. Nothing against immigrants who want to intigrate and peacefully contribute.
So we got Cookie in Venezuela, and Barbecue in Haiti. Sounds fuckin delicious.
