It's amazing to me how you'll find a way to house the illegal immigrants but won't do same thing for homeless citizens of this country.
It's an Hispanic thing,They're great at advocating for illegals at everyone else expense.
Vote America last DEMONRATS forever and ever!!!!

Why didn’t he help the homeless that are Americans
Because homeless in america they have resources and shelters, but many get kick out for doing drugs in the shelters, they get help and help but alot refuse to leave the drugs, so they choose to be outside because of the rules within the shelters. Is not because "why isn't he/she helping our people first etc"

what kind of father takes all these kids to a new country just to be homeless? bad parenting
Better homeless in America than dead in their country.
As I agree with most I want our ppl to be good first and foremost, but I can say the kind of father who takes his kids into a strange country must be a terribly scared and desperate father. I can not judge bc I've not walked an inch in his shoes. I want Americans to be put first for once, but I can also sympathize with a parent who will do anything to provide a better life for his family. In the condition our country is in I wonder why ppl would want to be here. Sometimes I'm sad for my kids, bc it doesn't feel like there is a good country left for our kids in the future. Their futures in this country are bleak.

Actually, there would have already been a law to stop this mass migration but the Republicans in the House of Representatives are blocking it.
They don't want to solve the problem at the border because ending the border crisis would be good for Biden politically. As long as there's a border crisis, they've got something to blame on Biden. So they are willing to let the entire country go down the drain rather than pass a law that would do something good for the country.
Look it up. Search for "why republicans block 2024 border bill."
They were initially living in and out of police stations? They needed to be kept in the police station, booked into jail for being illegal and then deported with the country of origin's government reimburssing us tax payers for this crap.
