Honestly, I don’t think so because it doesn’t benefit the Republicans to resolve the problem now and I also feel the Democrats now need to resolve the problem after allowing so much illegal immigration. Each side is checking the other side they did the same with the infrastructure bill under Trump and then passed it on the Biden
There was a bipartisan bill agreed 2 that would have been a start but got blown up by Republicans and trump so it could b like always used as political theater
That bill was horrible. It allowed for 5,000 illegals per day and included billions for Ukraine war. I’m glad the house rejected it. It didn’t have anything to do with Trump.
😂😂I walked across the border at White Rock (Peace Arch) after I’d walked across to Bellingham to get mail. I walked through a park to a toilet block and they was no fence, nothing!!!! If I found that out by accident you can bet the illegals (terrorists possibly) are well aware and use this way as well!!! (I walked up to the wicket farther up and told the guy but he couldn’t have cared less🤬🤬🤬
If things didn't suck down there, far fewer people would want to cross over, and the cartels wouldn't have a profitable business model to facilitate those crossings. It would be more effective for us to address our problem by recognizing the root cause of the problem and developing a comprehensive strategy that includes the root cause, but that takes time, money, foreign assistance, diplomacy, intelligence, and political will. All of these things are in short supply. Keep in mind that I'm NOT commenting on border walls, razor wire, police, harsh detention & deportation practices, etc. (others have already done so). I'm talking about being smart about this.
Americans drug addiction and thirst for cheap labor has nothing to do with half the points your making but some of your points are valid. Get Americans off drugs and get the farmers, home builders and factories to quit hiring the people that are not here legally then more people might take this fake outrage about immigration and drug cartels more serious other wise a lot of people are going to think these are just racist dog whistles used by right wing propaganda machine to rile up white people. Look who supports these republicants, farmers, home builders, owners of factories and on and on and these are the same people who use the cheap labor they are the ones using the most drugs. They support one cause and use the people they say they are against, make it make sense, it doesnt. The drug cartels are American drug addicts fault. Without the American drug demand the cartels wouldnt be so strong America is the root problem.
I have the best solution for this problem.very simple.fine the companies that hire people with out legal papers to work here. In Ohio we have Alside a window company, Case Chicken farm and many other like Rubber made.. The government won't do that because those companies pay with check and everyone get a check with all the taxes discount especially rhe social security taxes that the administration accept with the knowledge that the social security number that they use does NOT exists and they know that nobody is going to receive a pension from that money that is over 12 billions dollars a year. Chris Cuomo talk about that in your program. All that money goes to pay the social security to all the retired workers.
Great conversation, Chris, with Paul Lewandowski. Like other viewers, I would rather listen and get first hand knowledge of the border situation from a veteran than the politicians. Paul brought a lot of insight as to what needs to be done to hopefully solve this crisis. (If only the GOP would listen) By the way, thank you Paul for your military service. 👏👏
I appreciate Paul's "matter of fact" look at the border issue. His views are rational and that makes him a credible source. I especially liked the way he acknowledged the realities about Title 42 and how it was more related to the timing of Covid and not due to Trump or Biden being "better" or "worse" on immigration. Your questions to him brought out the relevant issues and represented the perspectives within our political discourse.
Good morning ☕️ Chris and father to be Greg Ott. As always looking forward to hearing from you and your guest Paul Lewandowski (thank you for your service) and what can be done about the border crisis. It is completely out of control!
CHRIS I'M SHERRY REPP THANKS FOR SPEAKING OUT AND ALSO PAUL FOR HIS INSIGHTFUL COMMENTS. CHRIS YOU'RE SO AWESOME AND RIGHT AND I LOVE YOU AND ROBERT JR FOR I'M SHERRY REPP AND I'M FOR WE THE PEOPLE AND INDEPENDENT THINKER THANKS TO YOU CHRIS . PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
I was surprised by Chris's question why can't other countries self-administer asylum. In countries where political asylum is sought, it's common for people to be imprisoned or even executed for trying to leave the country. I had a long conversation with a man from western Africa who went through that, but was fortunately able to escape after being imprisoned. I also worked with a young man from India who was beaten and imprisoned by the police, with his father. His brother had been killed by them. They had complained about a 10 yr old girl being forced to marry someone; the police killed his brother, then they complained to the higher ups who sent the complaint back to the police that killed his brother. They then beat his father and him and threw them in jail. He'd been in school for astrophysics in AZ and was immediately thrown into detention when he tried to return after 6 months in Indian prison. He tried to hang himself in Adelanto detention facility. Politicians just want to play games regarding immigration issues. They don't want to stop immigration. Our economy depends too much upon it. If they offered work permits to those seeking asylum, the US could be earning money from the immigrants, but it's easier to do whatever they like with the immigrants if they have no citizenship rights. Finally American citizens need to remember that the issues with cartels wreaking havoc throughout the Latin American triangle are due to the actions of the US de-stabilizing those countries. The immigration issues exploded once the US led coups in these countries.
If you bankrupt the nation doing it America will end up like Latin America. Middle class cant afford are groceries and poor cant aford fastfood and fhey keep printing money .the more things go south the hire crime rates will go.we cant support the world our veterans ,mental health ,disabled esc sleeping on the streets
@8:19 I'm a big fan of Paul; that said the idea behind a wall is not a "set it and forget it" deal. Nor is it supposed to be a fail proof impenetrable barrier. Just like a serpentine barrier he likely used in the military, the point of a wall is to slow crossers down which buys valuable time to identify and respond. While we don’t need a wall on every inch of the border, every inch of the border should be difficult to cross and time-consuming. Any area that can be traversed rapidly means you have to add considerable depth to your patrol/surveillance area in order to achieve acceptable probability of identifying and responding. The border is already super long (just imagine driving across 4 states, now add the curves).... imagine the massive force you and armada of surveillance assets you would need in order to cover every inch at least once every 10 minutes. The wall not only increases the amount of time crossers are stuck in the surveillance lanes (ie vicinity of border) thus decreasing surveillance/patrol 'net' area, but will also limit the number of paths of least resistance - thereby allowing border patrol to identify 'hot spots' and preferentially focus surveillance and patrols in these areas. Walls also provide infrastructure for surveillance equipment and once again buy valuable time for a response once crossers are identified. All of this is ESPECIALLY critical for catching those who will not turn themselves into border patrol because they are either smuggling drugs in/weapons out OR they know they wont pass a check (terror watch list, criminal history, etc.)
You want to slow people from crossing the border, get americans off drugs get the ruling class to quit hiring people here illegally and then use the same illegal immigrants as a politcal talking point. Americans cant cry about a fake border crisis that they are creating. The people that own the factories, farms and construction companies are the same ones supporting the fake outrage. You cant complain about illegal immigrants and then hire them or cant party with the cartels drugs and then complain about the cartels smuggling your drugs over here. People need to stop the fake outrage there's obviously a high demand for what's coming across the border and it's not just in demand by democrats or liberals I'm pretty sure there is a lot of republican owned farms and factories who cry then use both..No demand no need for wall.
Hmmmm... no, El Salvador is not having tremendous narc activity right now, he must have confused El Salvador with any Mexican city or area? Actually El Salvador has been combating narc activity very effectively for the last 4 years. In any case, people from El Salvador are not fleeing the country anymore (maybe just a few here and there), the violence is totally controlled, whether is from gangs or narcs.
Great interview Christ. This how you should keep doing, very informative and relevant topic. You know sometimes you make some unnecessarily comments, but this is right on point . Great job.
Absolutely great interview Chris, learned a lot that I didn’t know, and clarified some that are going on here in our Congress who are the ones that need to start working together to get this process of resolving this matter in motion
If your car is extremely low on oil - you don’t continue to drive. If it’s broken- you don’t continue the course! We need to shut the border down until we can take care of our own. We have a moral obligation to do right by our citizens. Once we refurbish the system- then we can do limited quantity. I use this analogy- “You lock the windows and doors to your house- yes?” Is it not the same- you only want the people you have vetted and choose to enter, you are concerned about you and your families safety. Border- same thing on larger scale!
This is awesome I watch Paul's channel everyday for Ukraine updates he's a really smart cool guy glad you had him on he has a good perspective for sure! Nice work Cuomo!!
If new immigration laws hit and reduce the flow 90 percent , then in Texas every new home mortgage would shift up an extra $50,000 for the same home. I live near the border , born near the border , then grew up in a Dallas suburb: the entire build/maintain/clean industry is 90 illegals and 1 cheater American boss.
I live 60 miles from the Arizona border. I think we need the wall, we also need a reasonable path to citizenship and a robust worker program. We need tracking, vetting, and monitoring! The economic migrants are using “seeking asylum” excuse when they they just want a better life.
Egypt has a big and very effective wall (a series of them) on their border with Gaza to keep Gazans out, who Egypt considers trouble and a threat. I would like him to answer why that wall works but one at the US border would not work. Does Egypt just ignore those UN treaties that say they have to let refugees in?
When you get 2000 illegal crossings a day increasing the number of immigration judges and staff won't help. Ideally a court can resolve 1 to 3 cases per day. For every resolved cases, there are 2000 new crossings. I think the wall that is constantly patrolled is the start. Secondly, leave the international conventions and make immigration laws that make sense for your country. There is more...
i kept hearing it's our job. cause and effect..in time cities will have huge problems and no mention of potential huge fines for large employers. individual asylum hearings not massive groups allowed to enter. advise mexico to secure or huge tax on remittances will occur. biggest question is what happens when glass is full, dont say we didnt see it coming
When a moral practice is taken advantage of by large number of immoral people and possibly brings security threat and possible demise to the state that practices the moral deed, is it still wise to practice it as it is? Is it not the time to revise the rule for the moral practice?
The guy literally said we could just withdraw from the treaties and enforce our borders lol. The downside is just pr/perception according to him. Really says it all.
Saying the wall “only helps a little bit but can be bypassed” doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Lock yourself out of your house and call a locksmith. You’ll see that the lock on your front door can be bypassed in literally 5 seconds. Does that mean you shouldn’t have one? Better yet, a better analogy would be the door itself. A door can be easily bypassed so why don’t you just not spend the money to put a front door on your house? Since it’s so easy to bypass that you might as well not have one???
What we need is a speedy asylum process where people see a judge in one week and if they qualify for asylum then they stay if not they have to leave . 5 years is too long and many of them just end of staying permanently because they no longer can be found!
👋New sub here! Chris's style of journalism is what I think so many people crave, mostly A-political, lets talk about the facts! Facts: 1. The current system dates back to 1951 (that spans every administration). 2. Pandemic created a huge pent up demand for USA immigration. 3. Mass migration used by Cartels to profit and disrupt Border patrol efforts to catch the drug smugglers. 4. Many USA based companies need the migrant workforce so, they would prefer politicians not to fix the problem. 5. Every physical barrier erected on the border, the Cartel has a solution to get around it. 6. During the Trump administration, we paid Mexico a massive amount of money to keep the migrants on their side but, wait I thought Mexico was supposed to pay for the wall .. instead we paid them! 7. Only the politicians (D&Rs) can fix the border issue but, why would they actually want to do what's right for the American people and lose one of their major talking points! 🙄
You better check out El Salvadors President because the situation is not what ya'll are saying and I listen to it every day and have many family members there!!
Pretty insightful. I hope you can maybe get another border agent that wasn't so left leaning. You could tell that he was more sympathetic to left ideology based on the push back you had to give . Maybe someone who is moderate-right. See who's ideas stand up to public opinion.
When it comes to dealing with human beings , right-wing ideologies are not the answer. We need to be more emphatic when trying to get to the root problem and dealing with problems. That's why left-wing ideologies outlast right-wing ideologies. That's why their "solutions" only sound good on paper and never work in real life.
But people do have valid Aysylum claims I just want to be clear on that but they're very rare it doesn't happen all the time like the media portrays it.
💡💡💡 Good content. More more more. Keep this going. WeThePeople need complete clarity. And, WHY Trump didnt/ doesnt have a resolve after all these years. Why hasn't/doesnt President Biden have a resolve that bypasses Trump & his cronies❓❓❓
Love the 2 mile wide shipping canal between the US & Mexico idea. A long term solution With Great shipping benefit, Massive Job Creation for BOTH countries. 550 billion - job creating dollars for the US & Mexico. About what the UKRAINE WAR is costing us.
I agree with Paul too a point he's right in some respects but wrong in others I retired in 2022 from CBP and I have worked the Southern border the Northern Border and the International Airports. The Asylum process is a structured process which begins with a intial interview when the person claims Asylum and then there is criminal history done on the person or family members and then when the report is done its given to a first line supervisor then its given to a chief for review and then if your at a Airport it gets sent to the Port Director for review and given the ok. But what usually happens most of the time is when we search there luggage they usually have a job already lined up a lot of money on them and when we look at there phone there are usually txt messages on there phone for what there suppose say too the officer incase there caught . Most of the time they claim that their sick and now we have to take them too the hospital and we have know other choice they could be there for days until there better and cleared by a doctor and we send them on the next plane back home . But Chris makes a good point people are skipping the process and not doing it properly and this administration knows it , what the solution is I don't know the damage has already been done , but one more thing I have too say I have never seen it this bad ever in my 22 years in CBP.. Hey Paul I'm a Vet too thanks for you service
Why are these governors sending National Guard to the border - including the state I live in. What job are they actually doing? What have these National Guard troops accomplished? No one seems to know.
I have a question. The amount of resources that one American uses, equals around 180 people from India, or 150 from China. At least that is the comparison I heard years ago from a biologist from Canada. I think his name was Suzuki. If the numbers are true. Then why is the border not more of an environmental issue?
I think that’s a great alternative….. Pay Mexico to keep them there till processing time. It has to be cheaper than feeding, housing, health care in America. Plus not all of the will be let through like they are now.
To fix any problem you start at the source. How can America profit from improving the lives of the people that are trying to escape to America, but in thier homeland.
Let’s set up a national national guard training along the border as well as regular military.coast guard can patrol the international waters of the rio grande. Great desert training , great intercept and detain training , good interrogation training . A wall ? Maybe but it needs to be monitored with surveillance and motion detection. Ps most fentanyl comes into our seaports from Asian countries mainly China .
I have to debunk some of the info that your guest is saying 90% of the fentanyl killing Americans is manufactured here or has been coming in legally allowed by our commercial treaties with other countries authorities with all US ports of entry including the Mexican and Canadian borders!
Solution: Open or build an old military base. Has housing, medical, dining, restroom, etc.. You cross, you go there. You wait there, you work there, you learn there. You go to court. Approved, released. Denied, go home. And no more born here makes you an automatic citizen. Parents are a citizen, okay, baby is too., mother not, baby not.
Every country has a wall for a border. It's common sense, it's literally the first level of security, not the only level. It's just to make it a little more controlled. Wouldn't you agree that it makes sense to have a wall instead of nothing? Doesn't seem like it should be controversial. One more thing I take isssue with is as an American tax payer, I do not subscribe to paying for all these illegal immigrants who want a better life. I understand they want a better life. I want a better life as well which is why I work and why I am forced to pay taxes. We simply cannot have a blank check to take care of all these people. We have so many issues in America that this money needs to go towards. It's all being spent on the seemingly endless border crisis with this administration. I believe we temporarily have to close the border until we can get it under control. They must remain in home country until approved. If they pass illegally you will be liable for the resources needed to get you back home or face imprisonment. Simple watch how fast it stops. If you have a true asylum case than you will not be held liable. Most of these migrants are coming here to work using their our valuable resources and sending money back home to their family in their home country. They have no intention of becoming a us citizen or learning English. They are only here until the scam is up. They rep their home countries flag yet say they seek asylum it makes no sense. What happened to immigrants who were honored to become American
Maybe you should run for Congress and pass new immigration laws that enforce what you're saying. Because currently 100 of years that's not what has been going on.
The question is what drives these people to leave their country? Most are giving up everything they have, some even their lives to get to the US with no guarantees. They are coming here for what they hope will be a better life. Just remember England didn’t send their best on the Mayflower.
@@dannnyjos The results are similar to our other work on illegal immigration and crime in Texas. In 2018, the illegal immigrant criminal conviction rate was 782 per 100,000 illegal immigrants, 535 per 100,000 legal immigrants, and 1,422 per 100,000 native‐born Americans. The illegal immigrant criminal conviction rate was 45 percent below that of native‐born Americans in Texas. The general pattern of native‐born Americans having the highest criminal conviction rates followed by illegal immigrants and then with legal immigrants having the lowest holds for all of other specific types of crimes such as violent crimes, property crimes, homicide, and sex crimes. It’s easier to discriminate against them if you dehumanize them, I wonder who else did that?
Rather than presenting physically, applicants for asylum should first make an application. There is no way this amount of people can be processed this way by just putting a fit on American land. Close the border. If you let them all in without knowing who’s who, and to boot you give them a court date 6 years in the future, OMG, NO! Just no. Current US law should be changed. Probably not easy to do, but certainly we should try. Oh, and how on earth can we be letting Cartels run this operation. Who in Washington is actually letting this happen? Shock and awe.
I think Chris hot the asylum issue right on its head. As with all programs the actual qualified individual seeking asylumis in line with a large amount of people who are bogus. i.e. everyone who wants in just claimes asylum, nomatter what hte real issue is, to get in flooding the system.
Paul seems to have emotional and personal attachment to the illegals coming into America. I wish the main stream media would round up a bunch of boarder agents( those on the front lines who are seeing first hand) and ask them what they think will work. Either you’re legal or illegal..simple…this guy talking about using a facility like Rikers Island, how much does that cost tax payers?
Is there political will to solve the border problem before the presidential election?
Honestly, I don’t think so because it doesn’t benefit the Republicans to resolve the problem now and I also feel the Democrats now need to resolve the problem after allowing so much illegal immigration. Each side is checking the other side they did the same with the infrastructure bill under Trump and then passed it on the Biden
SOLUTION ... TRUMP 2024
Well yeah. Abbott is holding the line in Texas. Other states are helping. It’s hard when Biden is fighting them tooth and nail.
There was a bipartisan bill agreed 2 that would have been a start but got blown up by Republicans and trump so it could b like always used as political theater
That bill was horrible. It allowed for 5,000 illegals per day and included billions for Ukraine war. I’m glad the house rejected it. It didn’t have anything to do with Trump.
America should have the simple question that Canada does at it's border. Do you have your documents?
Yes or No?
Period.
we do have that assylum crap in canada
Period? LMAO
Asylum is crap?@@matthewemery4205

Thank you for clarifying this issue and showing the reality and and giving us true information
Good Food for Thought. 👊👊👋
Please do shows to push congress to get disabled people out of poverty
Love you Chris Cuomo!! You’re the best!!
Great interview Christ. This how you should keep doing, very informative and relevant topic. You know sometimes you make some unnecessarily comments, but this is right on point .
Great job.
I love Paul’s TH-cam channel. Watch it pretty much every day
Excellent information from Paul Lewandowski on this subject because most people have a very simplistic idea about what the border issues mean.
Absolutely great interview Chris, learned a lot that I didn’t know, and clarified some that are going on here in our Congress who are the ones that need to start working together to get this process of resolving this matter in motion

Great job Chris!
So for years and years we went from average 500,000 to 3 million a year, it's done by design, such BS!
Good morning Chris 🇫🇷🇺🇸
I hope Chris will wake up soon ❤️🙏🏼❤️
This is awesome I watch Paul's channel everyday for Ukraine updates he's a really smart cool guy glad you had him on he has a good perspective for sure! Nice work Cuomo!!
Extremely informative, thank you both.

Thank you
100% Correct
When you get 2000 illegal crossings a day increasing the number of immigration judges and staff won't help.
Ideally a court can resolve 1 to 3 cases per day. For every resolved cases, there are 2000 new crossings.
I think the wall that is constantly patrolled is the start. Secondly, leave the international conventions and make immigration laws that make sense for your country. There is more...
Great topic
Good TH-cam video, informative
Since we are buying food abroad that taste horrible, put them to work.
Lets grow all our food here and make $ by exporting it.
i kept hearing it's our job. cause and effect..in time cities will have huge problems and no mention of potential huge fines for large employers. individual asylum hearings not massive groups allowed to enter. advise mexico to secure or huge tax on remittances will occur. biggest question is what happens when glass is full, dont say we didnt see it coming

Redacted , Stephen Gardner and Forbes are good news sources.
When a moral practice is taken advantage of by large number of immoral people and possibly brings security threat and possible demise to the state that practices the moral deed, is it still wise to practice it as it is? Is it not the time to revise the rule for the moral practice?
YOU ARE VERY GOOD FOR SOCIETY
The guy literally said we could just withdraw from the treaties and enforce our borders lol. The downside is just pr/perception according to him. Really says it all.
That's what I was thinking. This is blatantly unfair to the American taxpayers and to those who immigrated legally
What about the morality for them?
Where did he say that?
Actually obeying and enforcing the law would do wonders!
Try it and see!
Many thanks to you Chris.
You’re truly an American 🇺🇸 hero. Thank you

Good coverage of a complex issue.
Good discussion
“I want asylum” it’s that easy
Saying the wall “only helps a little bit but can be bypassed” doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.
Lock yourself out of your house and call a locksmith. You’ll see that the lock on your front door can be bypassed in literally 5 seconds. Does that mean you shouldn’t have one?
Better yet, a better analogy would be the door itself. A door can be easily bypassed so why don’t you just not spend the money to put a front door on your house? Since it’s so easy to bypass that you might as well not have one???
Hmm. Has anyone ever thought of asking those who CURRENTLY LIVE on the border? Novel , I wonder if this will ever happen hmmm…
What we need is a speedy asylum process where people see a judge in one week and if they qualify for asylum then they stay if not they have to leave . 5 years is too long and many of them just end of staying permanently because they no longer can be found!
👋New sub here! Chris's style of journalism is what I think so many people crave, mostly A-political, lets talk about the facts! Facts:
1. The current system dates back to 1951 (that spans every administration).
2. Pandemic created a huge pent up demand for USA immigration.
3. Mass migration used by Cartels to profit and disrupt Border patrol efforts to catch the drug smugglers.
4. Many USA based companies need the migrant workforce so, they would prefer politicians not to fix the problem.
5. Every physical barrier erected on the border, the Cartel has a solution to get around it.
6. During the Trump administration, we paid Mexico a massive amount of money to keep the migrants on their side but, wait I thought Mexico was supposed to pay for the wall .. instead we paid them!
7. Only the politicians (D&Rs) can fix the border issue but, why would they actually want to do what's right for the American people and lose one of their major talking points! 🙄
I wasn’t going to listen to this because I’m thinking Cory Lewandowski, I’m glad I did
You better check out El Salvadors President because the situation is not what ya'll are saying and I listen to it every day and have many family members there!!
Enlighten us
Pretty insightful. I hope you can maybe get another border agent that wasn't so left leaning. You could tell that he was more sympathetic to left ideology based on the push back you had to give . Maybe someone who is moderate-right. See who's ideas stand up to public opinion.
Maybe he has a little more humanity than a further right leaning person!
When it comes to dealing with human beings , right-wing ideologies are not the answer. We need to be more emphatic when trying to get to the root problem and dealing with problems. That's why left-wing ideologies outlast right-wing ideologies. That's why their "solutions" only sound good on paper and never work in real life.
But people do have valid Aysylum claims I just want to be clear on that but they're very rare it doesn't happen all the time like the media portrays it.
💡💡💡 Good content. More more more. Keep this going. WeThePeople need complete clarity. And, WHY Trump didnt/ doesnt have a resolve after all these years. Why hasn't/doesnt President Biden have a resolve that bypasses Trump & his cronies❓❓❓
Love the 2 mile wide shipping canal between the US & Mexico idea. A long term solution With Great shipping benefit, Massive Job Creation for BOTH countries. 550 billion - job creating dollars for the US & Mexico. About what the UKRAINE WAR is costing us.
I agree with Paul too a point he's right in some respects but wrong in others I retired in 2022 from CBP and I have worked the Southern border the Northern Border and the International Airports. The Asylum process is a structured process which begins with a intial interview when the person claims Asylum and then there is criminal history done on the person or family members and then when the report is done its given to a first line supervisor then its given to a chief for review and then if your at a Airport it gets sent to the Port Director for review and given the ok. But what usually happens most of the time is when we search there luggage they usually have a job already lined up a lot of money on them and when we look at there phone there are usually txt messages on there phone for what there suppose say too the officer incase there caught . Most of the time they claim that their sick and now we have to take them too the hospital and we have know other choice they could be there for days until there better and cleared by a doctor and we send them on the next plane back home . But Chris makes a good point people are skipping the process and not doing it properly and this administration knows it , what the solution is I don't know the damage has already been done , but one more thing I have too say I have never seen it this bad ever in my 22 years in CBP.. Hey Paul I'm a Vet too thanks for you service
👍👍👍👍
You don't think the reversal of title 42 by the supreme Court had anything to do with what's been going on the last couple years?
Why are these governors sending National Guard to the border - including the state I live in. What job are they actually doing? What have these National Guard troops accomplished? No one seems to know.
Nightmare bus trip to Toronto. Border patrol. Surprisingly really tough..they knew blue hairs were going to buy weed..they love their weed!
I have a question. The amount of resources that one American uses, equals around 180 people from India, or 150 from China. At least that is the comparison I heard years ago from a biologist from Canada. I think his name was Suzuki. If the numbers are true. Then why is the border not more of an environmental issue?
I think that’s a great alternative….. Pay Mexico to keep them there till processing time. It has to be cheaper than feeding, housing, health care in America. Plus not all of the will be let through like they are now.
To fix any problem you start at the source. How can America profit from improving the lives of the people that are trying to escape to America, but in thier homeland.
Let’s set up a national national guard training along the border as well as regular military.coast guard can patrol the international waters of the rio grande. Great desert training , great intercept and detain training , good interrogation training . A wall ? Maybe but it needs to be monitored with surveillance and motion detection. Ps most fentanyl comes into our seaports from Asian countries mainly China .
I have to debunk some of the info that your guest is saying 90% of the fentanyl killing Americans is manufactured here or has been coming in legally allowed by our commercial treaties with other countries authorities with all US ports of entry including the Mexican and Canadian borders!
US will never take accountability for their role in drug epidemics. History tells.
ASYLUM??? OR JUMPING THE BORDER .... 🙏🏼🤦🏻♂️🙏🏼
Solution: Open or build an old military base. Has housing, medical, dining, restroom, etc.. You cross, you go there. You wait there, you work there, you learn there. You go to court. Approved, released. Denied, go home.
And no more born here makes you an automatic citizen. Parents are a citizen, okay, baby is too., mother not, baby not.
Every country has a wall for a border. It's common sense, it's literally the first level of security, not the only level. It's just to make it a little more controlled. Wouldn't you agree that it makes sense to have a wall instead of nothing? Doesn't seem like it should be controversial. One more thing I take isssue with is as an American tax payer, I do not subscribe to paying for all these illegal immigrants who want a better life. I understand they want a better life. I want a better life as well which is why I work and why I am forced to pay taxes. We simply cannot have a blank check to take care of all these people. We have so many issues in America that this money needs to go towards. It's all being spent on the seemingly endless border crisis with this administration. I believe we temporarily have to close the border until we can get it under control. They must remain in home country until approved. If they pass illegally you will be liable for the resources needed to get you back home or face imprisonment. Simple watch how fast it stops. If you have a true asylum case than you will not be held liable. Most of these migrants are coming here to work using their our valuable resources and sending money back home to their family in their home country. They have no intention of becoming a us citizen or learning English. They are only here until the scam is up. They rep their home countries flag yet say they seek asylum it makes no sense. What happened to immigrants who were honored to become American
Well said! As another AMERICAN taxpayer I totally agree with every word you said!
It doesn't seemed like you watched the video, or if you did you didn't learn anything.
Maybe you should run for Congress and pass new immigration laws that enforce what you're saying. Because currently 100 of years that's not what has been going on.
300 Tunnels between Mexico and the U.S.
The fentanyl issue is also succinctly based in the addicted people who use it.
The question is what drives these people to leave their country? Most are giving up everything they have, some even their lives to get to the US with no guarantees. They are coming here for what they hope will be a better life. Just remember England didn’t send their best on the Mayflower.
Do you want to go back to the 1600s ?
@@dannnyjosObviously not, but clearly most of these people are coming to the states hoping for a better life.
@@4greendeep6 I don’t , but do you really think they were sending their upper class people?
@@lewy1 You're assuming that these creatures coming through the border are people.
@@dannnyjos The results are similar to our other work on illegal immigration and crime in Texas. In 2018, the illegal immigrant criminal conviction rate was 782 per 100,000 illegal immigrants, 535 per 100,000 legal immigrants, and 1,422 per 100,000 native‐born Americans. The illegal immigrant criminal conviction rate was 45 percent below that of native‐born Americans in Texas. The general pattern of native‐born Americans having the highest criminal conviction rates followed by illegal immigrants and then with legal immigrants having the lowest holds for all of other specific types of crimes such as violent crimes, property crimes, homicide, and sex crimes. It’s easier to discriminate against them if you dehumanize them, I wonder who else did that?
Anyone know how to email Chris?
Yoo I watch Army Vet!
Cool duo
Heard trump had southern mex. Boarder closed, and seekers were harshly treated, what happened
15% of millions of people is a lot of people with legitimate claims.
MINE THE WHOLE BORDER PUT THE ISSUE ON THE PERSONS CROSSING DO YOU WANNA RISK IT !
Why do we have a wall around the whitehouse!!
The Fredo Project
Rather than presenting physically, applicants for asylum should first make an application. There is no way this amount of people can be processed this way by just putting a fit on American land. Close the border. If you let them all in without knowing who’s who, and to boot you give them a court date 6 years in the future, OMG, NO! Just no. Current US law should be changed. Probably not easy to do, but certainly we should try. Oh, and how on earth can we be letting Cartels run this operation. Who in Washington is actually letting this happen? Shock and awe.
Hmmm…We made up a war with Panama to build the Panama Canal and later gave it back…Hmmm… like the man said tricky.
Hi
“It isn’t”. 😂 ❤
How about those 90 day fiance cases where it's easy to marry someone to get into the country quicker?!
you dont need a visa to come to canada if you are american
Paul is great!!!
The border isn't open. You can't just walk across the border without the paperwork to be processed. Those without paperwork are sent back
They walk across all of the time.
@claudiafantone6085 Nope. Not at the port of entry because you can't get passed the processing center.
Why is it so impossible to find the truth.
The amount of Ads makes this unwatchable
A little off topic. I pay for TH-cam, so I don’t have to watch commercials. This guy sneaks them in any way. Done with this channel.
vote Kennedy.
I think Chris hot the asylum issue right on its head. As with all programs the actual qualified individual seeking asylumis in line with a large amount of people who are bogus. i.e. everyone who wants in just claimes asylum, nomatter what hte real issue is, to get in flooding the system.
👍👍
Holy shit.... my nephews podcast gets more views.
Holy shit.
Then go watch his podcast, you must live a sad life.
It’s all nonsense. Stop letting them in. That solves that.

I’m with you! Now if we could get Mr.Biden to agree the problem would be solved!
Paul seems to have emotional and personal attachment to the illegals coming into America. I wish the main stream media would round up a bunch of boarder agents( those on the front lines who are seeing first hand) and ask them what they think will work. Either you’re legal or illegal..simple…this guy talking about using a facility like Rikers Island, how much does that cost tax payers?
I also agree. The taxpayers have paid enough already! Why should we have to foot the bill for any of this?
He lost me when he said “bad luck.” Biden clearly invited these migrants and they accepted.
Right?!👍👍👍👍
When a president tells all this invaders to come on! What do you expect the cartels are going to do?
Right?!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
