ABC’s Rivers: ‘I’ve Never Seen Anything’ Like ‘Hundreds’ Lined up at Border in Years, Officials Say They Can’t Keep up
Breitbart ^ | 12/12/2022 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 12/12/2022 5:14:25 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Monday’s edition of ABC’s “World News Tonight,” ABC News Correspondent Matt Rivers reported from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico along the U.S.-Mexico border and stated that, in his years covering the border, he’s “never seen anything quite like” the “hundreds of people lined up” near the border.

Rivers said, “These are the scenes in the shadow of downtown El Paso, hundreds of migrants crossing the Rio Grande in a matter of hours overnight, many forced to spend the night on the river bank burning whatever they could find for warmth.”

Just think what might be done to help the poor US Citizens if we did not have to support 2 Million illegal immigrants.

Ummmm, it's more like 5 million illegals since Brandon took office.

If mexico and mexicans are such awesome people, why do they leave their country? Why aren’t they staying to fix the problems in their own country? Why aren’t the awesome people remaining to make and keep their country wonderful?

I’m for people coming here legally, it shows respect and that they will obey our laws. I’m just bringing up uncomfortsble questions here no one in any power will ask.

You are correct.

I have lived in two border states, CA and TX. You are correct, over 65% of all kids in schools are Hispanic. There are a few Asian and white bubbles, but for the most part, Hispanics are 2/3 of the population.

They’re running from the disasters caused by the drug cartels, especially in Honduras.

The illegals are escaping socialist countries to come to USA, but they will end up voting for socialist democrats and make this country like theirs.

“Just think what might be done to help the poor US Citizens if we did not have to support 2 Million illegal immigrants?”

_____

And that is just the ones who have crossed in the past few months. I suspect we have approximately 40 million illegal aliens living in our country. That 11 million number the government has been quoting for the past two decades is b.s.

Yes, the number did go down under President Trump’s four years in office as many self-deported because they worried that if they were caught they would be jailed. However, not only have they returned, but all of their relatives and friends have as well. The word has spread world-wide. Get to America, you will be given all you need, and eventually you will receive amnesty.

Americans can’t find affordable housing near the border, because the government agencies and NGO’s have commandeered it all for illegals. Border states have suffered the brunt of it, but it is spreading nation-wide. American citizens cannot access affordable health care since physicians and hospitals have been directed to first serve illegal aliens. Hey, eventual guaranteed payment by the tax-payers, what’s not to love? And, public schools have been over-run by illegal aliens who are given first priority thus requiring school lessons be dumbed down in order to provide the basic reading and writing lessons to children whose first language is not English.

Our government is bringing in millions of illegal aliens, mostly men of fighting age, but plenty of women and children as well, to drain the resources of our country. The middle class is being required to pay for it, and the lower classes, elderly, disabled, and veterans, are the ones suffering for it.

Does someone want to explain to me again why “diversity is our strength”?

Over 200k a month are entering illegally this country. 5 million since Biden took office.

The numbers are cited far too low. They keep pushing the same BS lowball figure year after year in the media.

No borders means no country. Every nation on earth has strict borders and rules for immigration. Enemies want the US to lead the way down the drain while they keep strict in North Korea, China, Iran, Russia and all the rest.

You got it. We live in a rural county in KS, pop around 20K. My town is the county seat pop. around 3500. All of a sudden in the last 2 years 2 Mexican restaurants, a Mexican bodega, and a taco store have opened here.

Our county of 15,000 now has two Mexican restaurants. One in each of our small “towns” in the county. I’m not sure how they are surviving financially since most of the people go to the BBQ restaurant in one town, and in the other, they go either to the pizza joint or the sandwich shop.

When I was substitute teaching at our local high school in the late 1990s, there were two Mexican students recently enrolled. Our small school (one high school in the entire county) did not have the resources for the students. As a substitute, I was told that they would ask if they could go to the Spanish teacher’s class and spend their class time there. The teacher told me to tell them “no”, they had to stay and try to learn the class-work I was presenting. She told me the students had two “study halls” in their schedule where Spanish speaking teachers were trying to help them learn the English language and assist them with their school work. However, they refused to try to learn and wanted all their lessons translated into Spanish.

Can you imagine the stress and costs hundreds of students, speaking a variety of languages, demanding the same special treatment puts on small school districts with limited resources?

Also, can you imagine how all that accommodation affects the time and resources for other students? But yet the federal government demands that local taxpayers foot the bill for those special accommodations and that teachers take the time out for all the other students to give those few that special attention. Meanwhile, they refuse to assimilate into our culture. This is not good for our nation.

If you want to migrate to our country, do it legally and learn its history. Embrace the reason why America has been historically the nation of freedom and opportunity. If our border had been closed as promised in the 1980s, and only those who were truly migrating to advance and support the American dream were allowed to come here, I would be all for changing some of our laws to shorten the process for legal immigration. However, the left has made a mockery of our immigration laws by ignoring them and advocating for any and all to come here and take advantage of our social safety net. To continue down that path means the destruction of our nation.

Any nation that refuses to protect its borders cannot sustain its sovereignty.

Matt Rivers need not to panic it’s just Biden’s replacement crew.

But make sure to hide women and children.
