Agree. Put them in stocks and pelt them with avacados.

Mexico is enabling and facilitating an invasion of the United States of America.

Since December, Mexico has granted free passage to close to 200,000 “refugees” who, by international law and formal treaty should be cared for in Mexico and who should be granted asylum and potentially resettled in Mexico.

This is a willful act of war against the United States and should be treated as such

In the evolving international spygate drama, Italy, Australia, the UK and ???? are being mentioned as co conspirators!

Of course everyone leaves out the biggest meddlers in our elections and our way of life!

The Mexican Elites in charge of Mexico.

For decades, everyday and every hour they illegally come to our country to meddle and then to bribe their wishes with criminal Americans, who welcome these illegals.

The Mexican elites daily send hordes of their undesirables to live illegally in America and to send their illegal $'s back legally to Mexico.

Meanwhile tax paying Americans of all races have to fund these illegals stays in America not Mexico.

López Obrador also announced he was sending his foreign minister to Washington, D.C., on Friday to negotiate with U.S. officials ahead of a June 10 deadline set by Trump.

Thee really isn't much to negotiate. Mexico has to make immediate and strong attempts to stop facilitating illegals moving across their country to our border.

I'm sick of all things Mexicans. All this is accomplishing is making us hate Hispanics-even legal ones. The arrogance! The gall of people from a shithole country, full of drugs, murderous gangs and corrupt politics lecturing us on ANYTHING!We're not only first, we're best and we're fed up.
Wanna stop ALL of this third world invasion/arrogance? You really want to?
Buy NOTHING from them-we don't need their produce enough to accept their cultural and physical diseases. SELL NOTHING to them, nothing, not a paperclip. Cut them off entirely from all trade. See how long they can eat drugs and whatever little they can provide their people. Let them turn cannibal. I don't care! Defend the border militarily-shoot to kill-and let the backward savages implode. Then occupy the place, bulldoze it all and conquer THEM!
I'm at the point where I could see a Spanish speaking person run over in the street and I wouldn't even call police.

With any luck this action will bring back the exposure to the North American Union Movement of the Globalists that has been allowed to recede into the background.

Expose them all. Expose how far the reach is. Create knowledge of the full extent of what the left has in store for us, and our freedoms.

Mexico isn’t a country it Crime Inc. President Andrés Manuel López Obrado has been sampled to much of his export products.

It's a narco state with no law enforcement, basically a third world sh*thole.

Mexico itself is a fallacy.

It’s not a country, it’s a criminal cartel served by a population of frightened peasants.

A country ruled by a small clique of white europeans over a mostly indigenous population, kind of like Apartheid-era South Africa.

Bill the Mexican government the cost of their people over here illegally. Medical, housing, food stamps, incarceration, theft, and damages to American citizens. Tax all money sent out of the country South at 75%. Death penalty for drug and human trafficking.

"America First is a fallacy,” President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, often referred to as AMLO, said in a public letter released late Thursday.

Well AMLO...to we the people of the United States, our country should be first, our people should be first. We get blasted by some of our own citizens for saying that which is ridiculous.

Does AMLO think Mexico should come first? He should because that is his country. If he does then it should make sense that to our President and we the people our country should come first.

We need to do things in a way that benefit our country and our people over what others want or need. Just as other countries do. All countries should work with that theory. Some people have been brainwashed away from that but it makes no sense to put citizens of other countries ahead of our own. And makes no sense to compromise the security of our country to make others happy.

Trump needs to stand his ground on this Trump won the election SOLELY on immigration and the DAMN WALL, I think many of his supporters are FED UP and if he doesn’t correct the flow of invaders over the border he WILL LOSE the election!! People will stay home Dems KNOW that immigration will sink Trump and this is EXACTLY why they are letting this crap happen at our border!! I am honestly starting to believe that the Dems are RESPONSIBLE for the chaos at the border THEY have somehow given the word to these invaders to come to the US!!!

I’ve noticed ALL the reporters and anchor people on Mexican TV are light skinned.
The guy who occasionally mows the grass hereabouts is five feet tall and brown.
He’s from Oaxaca...

Jamaica too. They all seem to have this strange belief that people lighter in color are more intelligent. Interesting isn’t it?

Suppose it’s because the white folk showed up in giant wood and iron sailing ships while the indigenous people were still using a rock for a hammer and hadn’t made it to their Bronze Age?

Exactly. For far too many years now the entire Mexican Social Welfare system has consisted of an arrow pointing North. Sick of it!

You blame the Dems for the border crisis. What have the Repubs done to fix it? What has Mitch done? I don’t see much difference between the parties, especially in he Senate. If I’m wrong, let me know
