    It's hilarious to use human lives as political theater. Man. That's so funny. What a great sense of humor the GOP has.

    We need to make it easier, we are not having enough babies to sustain our growth, we are running out of people we need a lot more immigration to this country.

    Good news! Millions are pouring in through the borders! How many million to sustain our growth and be great again? Maybe we should eliminate borders and just be the United Countries of America.... Might as well...

    Apparently it cost about $12 million to send 50 migrants to Marthas Vineyard. So much for fiscal responsibility.

    I can imagine that, but it isn't reality. Not even a fun use of my imagination.

    Are they freaking out or are they feeding and housing them?

    Abbott and Desanits are human traffickers, plain and simple.

    They called in the national guard for 50 immigrants, so 'freaking out' seems to be correct.

    Nice spin, you learn well from your cult leaders. You spin it as if this is a bad thing, they are there to assist, you have folks from another country and they need help to find jobs, eat, and simply survive in a new country, who better to help then the national guard. You and your buddies are all the same......pathetic

    Biden does it. Cool.
    Desantis does it. Human trafficking.
    Lightfoot does it. No big deal.

    The issue is finally being discussed.

    LmAo at the hypocrisy

    Dem and Rep actually agree on many immigration policies. But nothing happens because extremists hold the power to stop progress.

    These latest political stunts do nothing except politicize immigration and push the sides further apart. Very few support the inhuman treatment of people and families crossing the border illegally (but as usual, social media make some of these people think they aren't a small minority).

    Democrats and Republicans Actually Agree on These Immigration Views and Policies

    Many Americans see themselves as divided on immigration. Disagreements persist about family separation at the southern border, potential criminals entering the country illegally — and even how to describe people who enter the country without authorization.

    But despite these perceived divisions, some recent surveys have found that many Republicans and Democrats share significant overlaps on immigration attitudes and policy issues.

    Check out these surveys conducted since May 2020:


    PRRI annual “American Values Survey” (survey published in October 2020)
    • 76% of Americans opposed the family separation policy, including 91% of Democrats and 53% of Republicans
    Common Ground of The American People (survey published in August 2020)
    • 93% of Americans backed increasing personnel to process asylum seekers’ claims faster, including 96% of Democrats and 90% of Republicans
    • 80% of Americans agreed on providing the undocumented immigrants eligible for DACA status with full legal status and a path to citizenship, including 92% of Democrats and 69% of Republicans
    • 80% of Americans supported increasing the number of visas for skilled workers to move to the US, including 86% of Democrats and 72% of Republicans
    • 77% of Americans agreed with increasing the number of visas for low skilled workers to move to the US for industries that need them, like agriculture and services, including 87% of Democrats and 66% of Republicans
    From Pew Research center (survey conducted June 4-10, 2020)
    • 75% of Americans said undocumented immigrants should have a way to stay in U.S. legally, if certain requirements are met, including 89% of Democrats and 57% of Republicans
    • 74% of Americans supported granting legal status to immigrants who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children, including 91% of Democrats and 54% of Republicans
    From Gallup (survey conducted May 28- June 4, 2020)
    • 77% of Americans thought immigration is a good thing for the country on the whole
    From CBS News Poll (survey conducted May, 29-June, 2, 2020)
    • 85% of Americans favored allowing immigrants brought to U.S. illegally as children to stay, including 95% of Democrats and 73% of Republicans
    From Public Agenda, Where Americans stand on immigration (survey conducted May 15-24, 2020)
    • 85% of Americans agreed on ensuring that people and families who cross the border illegally are treated humanely
    • 83% of Americans supported enforcing rules that make sure people and families who crossed the border illegally are processed quickly and fairly
    • 77% of Americans agreed on creating path to citizenship for people whose parents brought them to U.S. illegally as young children

    That is actually good news, but it is also incorrect, millions are not pouring in.....but we do need more immigrants - I know this is probably way above your tax cheating mind, but unless we have more people we will begin to decline severely in the next 20 years because of it....

    All these costs of busing could have just been used to build some housing structures for them to live in while they await their hearing.
