We'll find them.

Their kids all attend free public school

[enumerated]

How many times can the word “amid” be used in one headline?

[Persevero]

I am a hundred percent sorry for any kids who have no agency. They may have had a very traumatic time getting here, too.

My hope is that intact families will repatriate themselves and become solid assets in their home countries. If being an American citizen is a goal may they apply and go through the process and come in lawfully as contributing members of our nation.

[Brian Griffin]

Most of the recent invaders don’t have children, fortunately.

[Quality_Not_Quantity]

Only 10 out of the usually 40 to 50 migrants workers attended their shifts at a factory in Joliet, Illinois

Now, let's go after the employers in federal court.

“””Home Depot store is eerily quiet”””

And in the Evening News our Reporters are being called to hundreds of Democrat homes where the residents are complaining that Jose and Abdul did not show up this morning to complete the bathroom remodel.

I kind of like “amidst” myself. Gives it that Oxfordian flavor...

If they self-deport that may be an option.

If they are rounded up and deported, they will never be allowed back.

[Texas Eagle]

Agreed. Also, Oxfordian: “whilst”. I think I spelled that right.

[caww]

Probably many are hiding out.

[alancarp]

I’m awaiting the moment when the media anoints a particular young illegal girl as the ‘Anne Frank’ of Trump’s war on immigration (you know it’s coming).

[Texas Eagle]

Sheeeeeyit. You ever tried getting help at a Home Depot? Might as well not be anybody working there anyway.

Quick tip on how to get a Home Depot employee to acknowledge your presence: Start climbing one of those roll-around ladders that say, "Keep Off". Employees will parachute in off the rafters to yell at you.

Now is the time to coordinate all these new employment opportunities with the welfare programs.

[Jamestown1630]

That’s what worries me - thousands of military age men, traveling alone, from all over the world.

[DIRTYSECRET]

W blew up the Middle East. What’s the difference?

[Mouton]

Seems to me I recall some arcane notion one cannot hire illegals.

[T.B. Yoits]

Keeping many of these children with their criminal parents isn't a solution.

Send them all back home where their communities can address their problems instead of forcing communities here to deal with the non-solutions.

[bigbob]

As with US citizens, children of lawbreakers often suffer adverse consequences when their parents are held accountable.

Another effective way to deal with illegals
