The law is there for everyoneโs well being.
Fact: this was news TWO years ago so get facts straight before you lay blame. Of course that would be too much work for many.
It breaks my heart to the core
But they donโt say nothing about the cages inside the houses that they keep the immigrants in there
Good I hate these people
Lord have mercy. May God bring peace and protection to these people.
Sad, the U.S. should not even process them in should turn them around immediately and then this would stop.

That sad
Good night ๐
I am disgusted at how immigrants have to risk their lives and their children's lives just for a chance to live in peace. And if they DO somehow make it into the US still alive, they will eventually be caught and deported. And separating children from their parent's and locking them up in separate buildings or wings is so cruel ! Imagine how terrified those babies are! And the poor parents would feel helpless to save
God have Mercy! How sad ๐

I never saw this until now. May you both rest peacefully forever โพ๐ .
Que descansen en paz, muy triste! ๐ช
That image is caused by democrats like this man. This news organisation lies to you and is Democrat propaganda. If you want the truth and get all the news about the corruption going on across the u.s. oh, then you can watch Fox News or Newsmax. Democrats are trying to make this a socialist Nation by using Marxist language and actions
Myself being an immigrants just hurts even more to see this ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐
tragedies like this were not happening when president Trump was in office!! we have a crisis at the border and neither Biden or Harris have been there yet!! i guess if you don't see the crisis there is none!! when the border patrol is babysitting and changing diapers whose watching the border!! the Cartels just love Joe Biden!! their Sceaming Biden 2024!!!!
Why should we feel for these people drowning! There are literally kids in our country that die every day because they are drowning in poverty or abuse we donโt care about them right we donโt put them on the news right because it does not fit the democratic narrative
I WONDER WHY SHE IS INSIDE HIS SHIRT LIKE THAT?!
Wow. It's extremely hard watching these videos. Heartbreaking. Extremely heartbreaking
The blood is on Biden's hands!
This is nothing compared to the evil you Democrats with your leftist propaganda media installed in the White house. Go take a look at the border now.
lol
:0 may Rest In Peace โ๏ธ ๐ซ๐๐
Greedy father
EL SALVADO r jn good shape. Why leave ๐ฎ
