Easier Life? You mean Handouts right...

[AuntB]

I was One of those idiots who paid off all the students loans in my family, $10,000 for a nephew.
Lol, And no I haven’t heard from any of them since the fire. Well a couple times when they needed money

[Myrddin]

Biden has flung the door wide open. The invaders have been invited. They get cell phones, a debit card with $5000, transport to the city of their choice and fine accommodations in a hotel. Most are military age, single males. Obama's "army". The gravy train won't last forever. The troops being quartered in fine hotels will be expected to earn their keep soon enough.

Give mexico very short opportunity to stop the train, else deploy us military forces to stop the train well inside mexico.

How inspiring this isn’t. Pick off the Coyotes as they ford the Rio Grande. Then skedaddle.

[kvanbrunt2]

And most of these countries have resources. Just corrupt governments. Let’s see if we can help make mexico, guatemala, etc great again.

[Nateman]

Give me your tired, your replacement Democrats
Your huddled masses yearning to breed with free stuff...

Christmas has been a non-event at my home this year. Both sons live across the country. My wife is working her last 4 shifts before retirement tomorrow. Of course, she was scheduled to work Christmas Eve and Christmas. No sense giving her a break on the holidays on the way out. I stayed home with the pets. Late on Christmas eve my older son calls begging for $1800 because he is behind on rent and hasn't secured satisfactory employment since leaving for Florida. That really rubbed my wife the wrong way. Neither of us got any sleep. When my wife departed for work on Christmas morning, I managed 1 hour 55 minutes of sleep.

Post Christmas cleanup will be quick here. No tree or lights. A wreath on the door to put away. We had purchased all the ingredients for a traditional Christmas dinner. We still have them. Dinner was cheese/onion enchiladas with a green Hatch chile sauce. We followed the neighborhood tradition of exchanging gifts and a small stash of candies is now in the kitchen. The "kids" managed an SMS text of Merry Christmas. We only hear from them when they want money.

The world's poor want to get to America to enjoy free stuff (not freedom) for the rest of their lives. They view America as an economic lifeboat...

They are climbing into our USA lifeboat by the millions. What happens when too many people crowd into a lifeboat? It capsizes and everyone aboard drowns.

Illegal immigration may take down all of us middle class Americans. The illegal entries are accelerating and will reach a fever pace heretofore unseen in 2024.

[EinNYC]

They are not exiting poverty, they are bringing poverty to the USA.

Poverty is not the only thing they're bringing. They're bringing illiteracy which will cost us millions to address. They're bringing diseases we never had to deal with before. They're bringing crime, drugs, sex trafficking. They're bringing unwanted mouths to feed and educate. And they are undercutting wages of U.S. workers, bringing poverty to our own.

[Carriage Hill]

Criminal, illegal, alien invaders.

If all illegals here had the same uniform on, we’d look like a Nation under occupation. (And we are.)

[AuntB]

I am so sorry you have this challenge with children. Mine learned how to mistreat me from their father. Divorce doesn’t stop anything. I’m still scratching my wooden head what went wrong with my kids. College, white trash they married added to the problem for sure.
I thought they would surely wake up when I was burned out 3 years ago. I’ve never heard from my daughter. I begged my son for a bed in the furnished house I gave him. No motels for weeks! So my precious Bugs the Cat and I slept In a car and places no woman should have been.
Last month I buried my Bugs. 5 years old, cancer! He was the only tie left to 76 years of life. I never see anything familiar and am still trying to get home.
No, I didn’t hear from them on Christmas or after notifying them that the Biden regime now wants the disaster relief money paid back plus $8000 interest and penalties. They insist it is a loan!!!
3 years later.

[FlingWingFlyer]

The freeloaders should be turned back into Mexico where they belong. We don’t need THEIR poverty here. We’ve got our own. We’ve got enough and we’re all out of free, instant American Dreams and “better lifes”. Go the hell home and build your own better life.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Right off the bat the border patrol will give you a free diaper change and a 5,000 dollar gift card.

[rktman]

We’re way past the point of no return. Still amazing that people are so clueless. No sense in screaming “WAKE UP!!!!!” now.

[MinorityRepublican]

President Biden should be impeached for ignoring the border. I know he won’t get convicted in the Senate. The Republicans need to be more aggressive. Unless they are corrupted (due to cheap labor lobby).

[rktman]

Republicrats more aggressive? Now that’s funny. Bunch of sheep in wolves clothing.

[Bon of Babble]

And how many votes will Biden get in Nov. 2024?

I suspect “the most ever” 100 million, to surpass the 81 million, “most ever,” he got in 2020, right?

Now we’ll have 10 million more Democrat voters in perpetuity, voting for services for themselves...
