I'm a Native Texan who has had many friends and co-workers from 'south of the border'. Some came over illegally to work for a while and then would return to their home country with an increased quality of life thanks to the U.S dollar$. They told me how they swam here or hid on a train or in the back of a truck in a 'game' of cat an mouse with Border Patrol. However, things have become much more intense as many of those people are fleeing cartel violence and they have no intention of returning to where they came from. I've recently spoken to people who are here illegally from Russia, Iran, China, African countries and, of course, plenty from south of the Texas border. ALL of them told me that they plan to make the U.S. their new home. None of them said they wanted to go back to where they came from. Anyway, I just wanted to say that this video is well researched and more people should watch it for a fair view of what is actually happening to my state.

Do you think the world is devided in The West and The Rest? I think so! And this has its history and is a matter of cause and effect. Needless to say that we, the west, have not only to change policy but also "give up" a certain part of our wealth. The US or the EU, both big players were built on other countries wealth and we put measures in place that it stays that way, even "intervened" when certain developments there weren't going "our way". I don't say "bring them all in", because that would destroy our countries and can't be the solution. But, as rich as we are, we finally could help to stabilize and devellope those countries finally. No one is lightly turning his back on his family or his home. We have to get sincere or "we" have to build a fortress and become inmates ourselves.

The Senate passed a bill crafted by both the Democrats and Republicans. Trump killed it by ordering his tame House GOP to not even vote on it because "open borders" are his central campaign plank. Pro-Trumpers will yell and scream about how nothig is being done all the while their guy is preventing anything from being done. Indeed, earlier today both Sen. McConnell and Sen. Graham both came out and said plainly that they are being prevented from doing anything about the Border by Trump's control of the House GOP. That is the current situation.

Former OLS J3. Your video was fair and consistent with reality.

The current situation in the US sounds an awfully lot like what happened at the Hungarian border not long ago. Almost the entire EU condemned Hungary for wanting to stop the illegal immigrants. So since they wanted them so badly, we also put them on buses and sent them on their way like Texas. Make no mistake, it isn't the skilled labour force that is banging at the fence of your borders.

To attempt to turn it into a thing of ease and inaction would be only to debase it. To cease to struggle and toil and sacrifice for it is not only to cease to be worthy of it but is to start a retreat toward barbarism.

Illegal immigration is mostly driven by US domestic politics and not the terrible situation in their home country. There will always be a number of people trying to gain illegal entry into the US, for drug sales if nothing else. Though the mass illegal waves we see periodically are always triggered by chamber of commerce desire to keep wages low and is signaled through US politicians to the southern hemisphere. We have watched this dance for decades, well at least us older American's have. We have just never witnessed anything like the invasion under the current administration.

You want to help out but on the other hand having 30 million people in 30 years come into or pass through your state with a population 1/3 that size will naturally create a fair amount of stress & disruption to the locals. The numbers are staggering. It puts a real strain on government and stresses their ability to provide the services they are legally required to. All of these people need time in front of a judge and case workers. Even if we instituted a national program to train and recruit judges there still wouldn't be enough to cope with the work load in a timely and judicious way. It's just too many people and not enough legal experts.

I've been here for 42 years now; our schools are money pits, with a large contribution being the large number of ESL teachers needed to cope with the huge numbers of non-English speakers. Then there's the destruction of good entry-level jobs in cities like Tucson; the vast majority of construction laborer jobs are taken by illegals there. Neighbors on every side hired illegals to build walls and do pretty much every odd job on their homes. This, of course, is a big part of the problem, but in some cases neighbors have no idea. Next-door neighbor hired a US contractor, who hired a bunch of Guatemalan illegals to actually build the block wall. Corrupt contractor made out like a bandit, because no workers comp, no SS, no extra expenses associated with US workers. I spoke with the Guatemalans, who said they come across the border every year, work for 6 months, then go back with their money to Guatemala. My son would LOVE to have had their job, building a wall, but no chance - because he's a US citizen, the contractor would have to pay all the other expenses.

@@Taskandpurpose I will raise one issue that you stated which was incorrect, but the media generally reported it the same way. The Supreme Court did not rule that Texas must give them Federal Agents access to the Park, it simply vacated (canceled) the 5th Court of Appeals order that Federal Agents could not cut the barb wire while the case was pending. The Court ruled that the appellate court should not have enjoined DHS while the case was pending, which allowed DHS to cut the wire. It did not require the state to give DHS access to the park, which is state land. Although federal agents are generally allowed access across the country, they are not generally permitted to “occupy” state or private property for their use without compensation. In the end, Texas will likely lose the case as it relates to immigration but the case certainly raises unique issues as to state rights when the Federal government fails to perform mandatory duties.

Cartel members cross illegally because they’re criminals, Asylum Seekers cross illegally because we intentionally, maliciously don’t have the infrastructure to get them citizenship at legal points of entry.

In practice, ICE tends to intercept them before they can do that, and we don’t tell anyone that it’s what they’re supposed to do.

Before I watch the video, CONGRATS on being on Pierce. I think they could of included you a bit more in the discussion but you got your point across.

Piers and the brunette were annoying. Tomi was fingernails on a chalkboard level annoying. I get that Chris was only there for the Ukraine portion but it's a shame he wasn't included in more of the "discussion" as a voice of reason.

Thanks man it was great speaking with Piers! My ear piece was broken so I barely heard every 3rd word of what was said unfortunately

@@Taskandpurpose I'd like to say you missed a good conversation but I'd be lying if I did. You brought good information to the table in the Ukraine segment and was EASILY the best part of the entire show. I hope that gets you on more shows where you get to set the record straight and refute ideological talking points.

⁠​⁠@@keithck3720Pierce had a few good rebuttals for both the other guest’s political arguments, but everyone took our main man here for his word about Ukraine and the needed aid package since no one else had any military experience.

I think that the money spent on NG being on scene is going to be less than the costs of having criminal aliens in the state in the long run.

Your videos are always so professional and excellent at giving all sides of the situations.

“One culture, with shared similar values?!?” I wish..

I don't get it, the US has a right to stop people entering its borders so why don't you use the Army and or Army reserve and cycle responsibilities.

It's my understanding that, by law, the military can't be deployed in the country except for natural disasters.

Defective by design. Joe is literally a member of an organization that put Americans in con-sen-tray-shon camps so they could seize family owned farms and sell them to their donors for pennies on the dollar.

The US signed certain international agreements, which outline how to deal with asylum seekers. So... no, the US has the obligation to let people in.

Wrong, this country wasn’t built with such bigoted ideals, no human is illegal, we need to let them in, we can afford them. Your hatred has no room in this country, go to Ruzzia

Excellent well-balanced explainer video. Lots of useful data. Both empathetic and balanced - a standard which is notably difficult to achieving. I've never lived in a border state, so the understandings you shared were especially helpful to me. I found the maps and charts interesting and helpful as well. Your best work yet! Thank you!
