There are too many illegal people that are not being vetted not being checked for diseases just let loose in our country on the premise that they show up for their hearing. There is a legal way to do this, and it's not fair to those who have done it the right way.

It is not really a political question. It is a question of security. We have none. We are wide open for a terrorist attack. The last major one resulted in 20 years of war.

It's both Political, and a security breach. The illegal immigrants that crossed the border in December alone, is only 5,000 less people that live in Boone, Callaway, and Cole counties combined. Biden has launched a war, against the United States of America. Our National Debt just exceeded 34 billion

It should be a major issue with anyone who locks their doors when they sleep. Anyone with common sense would know that, that's why Biden does not know that.

It is definitely an issue. It's too bad Republicans want to KEEP it an issue to campaign on rather than negotiate with Democrats to fix the problem.

As a teacher, I have literally received dozens of Venezuelan students into my classroom. They are great! The work is hard, but that’s what we all need to do. We need to view people as assets not deficits.

Not an issue. Nature has no borders. When was the last time a goose was shot because it had crossed the border illegally?

Why are the marines any different than any other branch of service that gets deployed in U.S. As a veteran- I have been deployed for things in U.S. over the years- it’s not just for protecting us in foreign countries Our oath of office says we will protect foreign and domestic

Newsom, Bass and Waters can't handle the situation. I believe the Marines should be a last resort but certainly an option on the table.

Maxine Waters face alone should be a warning to the world that a darwinian subspecies has overtaken southern California

What do you do when a foreign body rises up on American soil. You make an example out of it. Never understood the waving of other countries flags in these situations. They are sending you back to the country you are so proud of. Im hoping they're treated like armed combatants.

Because someone needs to help cause obviously the government in California don't care . The president is doing all that he can to help . I say if ur illegal you need to leave either willingly or by forcing.

This is an insurrection, with guns and devastating fires. They should all be arrested and treated with same due process as the Jan 6th people.

Would you be saying the same thing if Biden had deployed the Marines on Jan 6th? Even the National Guard seems a little over the top, but Newsom is 100% responsible for the chaos. He needs to be held accountable for not supporting ICE and the arrests of the criminals that broke into our country.

This is not an insurrection! The police set their own car on fire from what I heard. These protests were peaceful for the most part until Felon47 got involved. They did cause a lot of damage with the graffiti, but no one was injure bc of it. Maybe Felon47 should have sent 700 Maries like your post o

You heard they destroyed their own police cars. I would suggest you change the place where you get your lies from. They burned they're own cars. Wow. TDS is real.

No, the Marines should NOT be deployed to States against their own people.

Not that it may not be warranted, but sets a bad precedence when, not if, a real socialist tricks his/her way into the power and justifies deploying our military against her citizens to 'keep the peace'. I voted for Trump, but lets call 'balls and strikes', he does not get a pass for this behavior.
