“Asylum-seekers” my ass. They all tell the “media” they are here for a free ride, “better life” off the backs of the American taxpayers.

Send them back to Venezuela on their dime and have them get in the back of the line like any other law abiding immigrant.

They make it sound like parents with 7 children.

It includes her extended family plus FRIENDS.

THAT is NOT a *family of nine*.

Ship them all back. Every last person who has entered illegally and/or overstayed work or student visas
