    I'm an older man now worked on ranches near and far from the border of Mexico when I was young. Loved Del Rio, Uvalde, Hondo, Sabanal, Concan and so many great towns. As I got older and many broken bones and injuries my family said it was enough but of my time was working with the Mexicans with the cows, horses, and fences and what great people I lived with. I have worked with a great construction company for 28 years now with many of the same great people some not Mexicans and 14 years ago I married a Mexican woman and love her family the catholic marriage was in Mexico and legal one was in Houston. my story is I meet of lot of good people and a lot I called my compadres over some great years of my life, and the end of this is what the gain of the federal government is. They are scared they have lost the power over you, so they need new people to vote for them and not saying the good people Val Verde County those people have been sent else where were the vote counts. Thanks, Greengo Flaco

    If yall take anything away, there are Texas democrats who are also religious and pro-life. But they understand those are personal issues! Republicans had a great opportunity to help pass border reform with democrats and Trump shut it down. Soooooo…. 🤷🏻‍♀️

      The Democrats bill allowing up to 5000 people to enter the country illegally a day before emergency measures went into place, is not immigration reform or a border bill.

      They didn’t need a border bill. Trump didn’t have a border bill and the president has the authority to shut it down. Democrats wanted to hire thousands of border patrol to process more people in. It also allowed 2 million people in a year. I suggest you go read that shit bill all they were trying to do was pull a fast one on America. No disrespect intended

    We're a nation of immigrants. Each generation, of immigrants, were poor, fleeing oppression.
    America, has been uniquely bless, of God. We used to understand why, God bless us so much. We wrote the reason, on our greatest icon. We said "give us your poor, tired, huddled masses, yearning to be free". We wrote it down, because we were concerned evil men would come along, and seek to break up, our God given blessings.
    We peaked in 1960s. During the 60s, we took the silver out of our money, lost our first war, started a drug war, that caused a crime wave of immense proportion.
    Jesus said in as much as you do it to them, you've done it to Him. He taught us to pray The Lord's Prayer. In that prayer, we ask God to "forgive us, the same way we've forgiven those who have sinned against us.
    This is a war on God's next blessing. This is a blessing we must not refuse. We're all the sons of immigrants. We don't have some special exemption to God's requirement, to take in the stranger.The most evil thing, I've seen in my life, are the people cheering, the stringing of razor wire in the Rio Grande, with the hopes of cutting, and drowning Christians. Christian women, and children fleeing here, for our help. Just like our families once did. What we do, or want to do to them, we're doing to Jesus....His words, not mine....read your bible Christian.

      not anymore though, Trump demonstrated he will close all borders to all immigrants. His own mother was an immigrant, he has not understand that the greatness of the USA lays precisely in the best brains from everywhere in the world here to make America great.

      Exactly. Jesus is coming and when he does he is going separate the sheep from the goats. Its in the Bible. I pray to see alot of people being sheep and not goats.

      These were not Christians, the were military age Chinese, criminals being released from prison and people being released fron insane asylums. Have killed citizens, are destroying small businesses. Ribboying merchandise. Using our hard earned tax money to get drunk, travel back to the country they are claiming asylum from. Quit watch the propaganda news.

    I agree with that gentleman. We cannot lose our humanity over this problem which has been in the works for decades. When I was a child Mexico and the US had a functional program called the bracero program. That worked well and I have no idea why it was discontinued.

    Doesn't the federal government money come through the state house?
    Those budget cuts are not noticed by who actually does the cutting. And yes this is going to increase anyway you look at it because of what is happening in other countries like global warming

    Saludos desde Springdale AR, BuenGente! Neither an Ohio Conservative nor a Rhode Island Liberal truly have no Valid Point of Discussion over this Issue. Coyotes y Polleros are the Biggest Part of this Dilema. & EXTREME Polarity has led up to this Mess.

    To continue to stay with the Democratic Party just because your dad was a Democrat back in the day when the Democratic Party had different values, is a dishonor to the values your dad stood for. I respect JFK and Tulsi Gabbard who have recognized that the Democratic Party left them and went extreme left and is now espousing destructive policies. I don't vote for a party; nor for a personality. I vote for the policies the candidates promote. As a conservative, and foremost as a Christian, I cannot vote for the policies of the Democratic Party. My grandfather voted Democrat all this life until the year Ronald Reagan ran for President. At 82 years of age he recognized the values he stood for and which candidate had them and voted for Reagan. I hold those same values, and at this point the Republican Party stands for those values much more than the Democrats. My values don't change. God, Family, Country, secure borders, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

      Lol, you pick and choose your values. You don't follow God's word, you don't love the country, immigration has been an issue as long as I can remember, so stop that. You just hold onto your hate, which does not align with God's value, nor does it epitomize Americans' values. Fraud. You are filled with hate.

      If that were the full reason, then I would agree. Unfortunately it would dishonor his dad to basically just be a cog in the American North Korea golden calf worshiping of 2016/2020/2024+. All hail the dear leader. Throughout history people have bowed down to leaders when they knew they shouldn’t, but if history doesn’t exactly repeat itself at least continuously rhymes.b

    Unfortunately these Times of blue and red are no longer the same. And the Democratic Party no longer represents or supports the working Americans in this country. Or the wellbeing of us Hispanics and it’s sad to see the older generation holding onto something that is no longer there.

      In your case what do you do? You don't agree with the Dems, Repubs wanna round you guys up and send you back. I'm telling you though. Stephen Miller is the devil! Don't fool with that dude.👎👎

    • @iMatti00
      @iMatti00 หลายเดือนก่อน

      And it’s sad to see others who will support treason and breaking apart the foundation of this country. I’m willing to give up some of the most important voting issues I’ve had over the last 20 years in order to protect this country’s long-term future. When you are fighting a left wing cancer that slow moving and a right wing cancer that is fast moving and already metastasized, you have to attack one before you can fix the other. You have to go in order of importance. And letting immigrants in is a big problem, and that could be fixed later. Breaking apart the foundation and backbone of this country, that’s unacceptable. Creating wedge issues in this country is politics and it’s not right, but creating hate and division and outright extreme heat goes beyond politics and dirty politics. I wish more people would study history and look at that how countries are torn apart and brainwashed.

      I guess this shows finn’s intelligence level. This year it would’ve been perfectly acceptable to the Republican Party as long as he was willing to put the letter R behind his name. So he is perfectly acceptable just based on the letter behind his name. I guess the irony and the issues with that escape people they don’t have the capacity to understand.

    🗳😡 ~ It’s disgusting politics to do that. It’s not helping the country, it’s all about party first. They’re perfectly happy with sheriff Joe Frank Martinez being the sheriff, as long as he has the letter R behind his name. If he doesn’t, then they’re happy to kick him out of office for someone who’s less conservative than he is because they have the right letter behind his name.
    It’s not about the country, not about the citizens, it’s about politics. And that’s happening all over this country.
