That one Venezuelan guy has been here for a year-and-a-half and hasn't found a job. Dude a Mexican would have found a job the next day after getting here. seriously!
I've seen some of them working under the table for cash in some spots. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of those opportunites for every single one. But agree with some of the comments above that some are just waiting for anything thats given. It's tough either way. Especially when you think of all the other latino groups that are well establiahed here already and look out for each other. There's no network of Venezuelans here yet for them to rely on each other. Sadly, a lot of us other latinos just talk shit saying they're this and that instead of helping each other out, when all of our families have been through similar journeys.
Bro, we can't help our own people. How the hell do ppl expect the US to take care of all of these people? We have our own people struggling to get jobs and becoming homeless. We cannot be the hero for everyone. Not only that, the criminals are sneaking in with the actual people that need help. Thats a whole different issue. We need to take care of our own people first, before we even try to help someone on the outside.
Yes, I know people that cannot find a decent place to live that they can afford. All of these people are supposed to live and work here. Where? How? It's so crazy this is happening. This needed to be gradual not as it being done. They feel that they have as much right to be here as everyone else. I have family members that have fought in wars, so I don't believe that. They should fix their own country. As we need to do with ours.
i think u need to get off ur ass and make some money. homeless people are there for a reason, these immigrants traveled thousands of miles just to live.
Thank you for talking about this, I've lived in Chicago my whole life, and the sad part is that we're bringing the immigrants here and can't find ways for them to actively survive, yet, we also have veterans in the streets.
Exactly, we don't have enough resources to even help the ones who served our country. We need to figure out our problem first before assessing a new migrant (housing) crisis
@@wormzilla”immigration” is a-lot more of a catching headline than “housing for homeless” though, if you can make people think voting for you is the right thing to do then you’ve already won, American politics is only ever about numbers never the citizens
@@shway876 the fire in the thumb nail is a lil too much. Chicagos hoods has been shitting where they live, killing each other and are mad when new asylum seekers/migrants who are less liking to comit crimes
Thank you for shedding light on this situation. We already have a large homeless population but suddenly we have resources for immigrants? That’s so backwards. We’re against student debt relief but okay with this? What a joke
Most Migrants contribute to the economy. Most Homeless are burdens to the country. Thats why we help migrants knowing that soon as they get their feet under them they will work and contribute to society. Homeless on the other hand are just a drain to society.
Na man, its to intentionally disstabilize and change the US. Texas is shipping these people to other places because they are overrun and saying f*** the people that are defending it.
Facts people are all caught up in helping people when we dont even have. Enouggh room and people from other countries will take advantage too usa has the right to deny
Biden has money to send to Ukraine and Israel but not for Hawaii. He and the democrats more worried about other countries and their borders when we have our own invasion of military aged males from all over the world sneaking into our country. This is why we need Trump back. He put America and Americans first and they called him racist for it. But look at us now. He was right we need that wall! #TRUMP2024 Make America Great Again.
I live in Chicago. I just left the crib and i have to drive past a police station. It's like 50 people outside, it's cold and raining.i understand they have a situation they're trying to escape, but we need closed and secured borders. There is great unrest in the world right now, these folks need to solve the issues they have at home. They estimate there will be at least 15 busses a day (40-50 people/bus)coming into the city, now imagine just 20 percent of them have children within the next 9-12 months. The majority of them are men, we're to assume that out of over 3k people not one is a current gang member, drug dealer, hitman, terrorist, grapist?
@@Nebuchadnezzar00there going to allow most of these migrants to vote. If you have a kid in America you’re a citizen I think smh. All this was calculated lol these politicians don’t gaf about us but we too comfortable
Chicago has enough space for every migrant. It is a big city with more than enough space like hotels, shelters, community centers, colleges, police stations, parks, graveyards, under bridges, ... I sense a little bit of racism in comments here.
You know as citizens and human beings with compassion for other human beings we can do our part helping vets and the homeless too vs just waiting on the government. We all play a part in helping our brothers and sisters. So now since the homeless and vets are a topic because of this situation how about we protest just as hard for vets and the homeless and give the same energy for them like we are giving energy to complain about this crisis.
It’s a huge strain on our schools as well. Our children have been experiencing slower learning lessons due to having to incorporate the non English speaking kids. My sons school canceled Halloween and banned costumes so the Venezuelan kids don’t “feel left out”. complete bs.
Says the person called "Perez"😂 The only strain here is that the Venezuelans get into a lot of fights. My middle school has a group of venezuelans that get into fights regurlarly. And this is coming from a mexican.
The big thing ive seen as a chicago resident is that people that actually live here do not agree with the decisions being made yet the people in the suburbs that arent being directly affected are for it all.
That's not true at all man! I'm an Elmhurst resident (so 20 mins with no traffic and I'm at the lake from 290) and everyone around me including myself are against bringing all of them to Chicago. I saw them all over the streets first hand five different times through the months of July and August. And it was crazy. They're everywhere because they can't be in the hotels during the day. So the alleys are just full of them. So don't say everybody from the suburbs is like that because that's absolutely not true. There are many people from the city that are all for the Palestines coming to Chicago as well.
Not true at all. We all hate it and I think most agree we shouldn't be a sanctuary city. What I don't understand, they come here and are surprised there living on the streets. What do you expect? Money doesnt grow on trees.
@mushy.popcorn illinois will always be a blue state. Most of which is comprised of Chicago votes. We needed Paul vallas ( also a blue contender) not Brandon Johnsons stupid agenda. Your vote means nothing suburbanite
@@donaldmaxie5264 those things are human rights? while being under American care whether to gain sanctuary or deportation they should get food n water and shelter lmao
@@donaldmaxie5264 also ur brain dead if you think voting for trump would solve any of this, considering he told republicans to not vote on the bipartisan border bill solely because it would be passed under biden, even the ICE union backed the bill
So these ppl are sleeping in hotels , while our ppl sleep in the cold and rain. Thank God I live in Georgia with a county populous of 1,200 ppl. Sanctuary city's smh.
Im from Chicago and honestly tnot as innocent as it seems ..they fucking shit up in Chicago also , stealing police radios selling it to gangs , making they own gangs , fighting ..smh
Not only Chicago and New York but cities throughout the entire country. Communities are hit hard with strains on police, education, hospitals, housing, food by something the federal government failed to control and without any organization.
Well , people voted for Biden, whereas in Illinois and Chicago they voted for a democrat governor and mayor. Why are people mad about politicians fulfilling their promises? They made it clear during their campaigning that they supported illegal immigration. Are they supposed to break their promises?
I can tell you the hospitals are taking a hit with the overflow of new patients. And none have health insurance. So that burden isn't on the government it's on the American taxpayers. The system can't sustain this.
@Nevalackn Denver is an absolute mess. I hadn't spent much time there over the last 5 years. Spent a day in the cjty this last summer and couldn't believe my eyes.
The fact these immigrants getting all the help and what not but my Mexican immigrant parents started from 0 and if they were caught they would be deported back but these mfs get caught and sent to Chicago 🤣🤣 fuck
So can I open up a taco stand and sell tacos without a food permit? I would be arrested. Our kids can't even sell lemonade. I couldn't even sell raw milk from my cow without facing federal regulations from the USDA. I mean we would all have jobs if the government would let us work without all the red-tape regulations.

Selling robbed objects on streets, food, cut hair, all things without any regulation is common in venezuela, so the bussines just moved to the usa 😅😅😅😅
We need to stop glamourizing these people. I get it their conditions are tough, but we have law and order for a reason. Our country was built on it, which is why they want to come here. Do it the right way or not at all.
Our country was definitely built on law and order that was completely fair, just look at slavery, women treatment, and our own government conspiring against the people (mk ultra, black panther infiltrators to plant false evidence) 100% a fair and just society
@@varga4488 and our corporate conservatives don't not care either about immigrants ; thats the whole point of a capitalistic society of importing immigrants, so they can exploit and do low wage jobs. Reagan era sold out our jobs and our wages over seas and to immigrants; its why we have a "weak" labor force and WEAK and non existent unions. its why every "capitalist" country have been IMPORTING immigrants for their low wages, canada, europe and aus. The problem with homeless in the US, lot of which are drug addicts, and they do NOT want homes, they don't want to be "responsible" of being a capitalist citizen. Everything is free to them, free housing already exists in a lot of places, FREE food, Free money. Its always funny that immigrants are always willing to hustle and make money $$$.. The homeless? nope, they rather get it for free. Rare to see actual spanish homeless here where im at. Trump immigration/asylum limit policy which conservatives introduced, never changed either, still the same uunder biden lol.
Thank you for making this video. I’m from Chicago and the media doesn’t show you this angle. The media does its best to show the ugliest parts of both sides of this argument without coming up with any real solutions. With how powerful the federal government and even state and local in some cases, it is absolutely a disgrace that this problem cannot be solved in a way that actually benefits the people coming here for a better life and the people already here that are also struggling to attain a better life.
S/o Tommy for learning Spanish! As a native Spanish speaker it’s awesome seeing him grow as the videos go and how his vocabulary and how he explain things keeps getting better and better. Tommy G is the only G 💪🏼
they all seem like good sports w his Espanol I think because they can tell hes trying and likely appreciate someone being on the other side of the language barrier that they are on in countless interactions as they go about their day to day life in USA if they aren't fluent in English yet. I think the interviews would have been a lot more forced and awkward had he approached them only speaking English. They still ultimately seemed to be pretty surface level though as I don;t think hes able to have more complex conversations yet in Spanish.

I live 20 minutes from Chicago and my husband is an immigrant and I think this is so messed up. On the news the other night they had a homeless man who said he’s a veteran and fought for this Country and he’s sleeping in the streets while the immigrants have food and a warm place to sleep it’s a sad reality… we have nowhere to put these people and continue to let more come I truly am at a loss for what the politicians are thinking
Well the part of the story that is left out is the Vet is an addict or alcoholic and is unwilling to go to the treatment services that are offered and he cant get into any housing because they're all drug and alcohol free. That is the biggest problem with the homeless outreach in the US is their strict abstinence policies. Every homeless person in the US pretty much has the opportunity to go into treatment if they wanted to, they just choose not to. But until they do, or until the outreach programs relax the rules on drugs/alcohol and at least let ppl in initially then help them get sober once theyre inside and safe then the homeless issue will keep on the way it is. I doubt the refugee housing has these same rules.
If you've seen his videos then you'd know nearly all homeless are drug addits and prefer living on the streets even when given the chance to become clean. Sad reality when the majority dont want help
Awesome video Tommy. The immigration issue is a complicated one. On one hand,I feel for alot of these people just trying to escape a horrible situation and provide for their families but on the other hand,the border is open way too much. We have tons of people out there that hate Americans so its a threat. I think overall,the immigration is being handled wrong. Then you look at the homeless situation we have or veterans that dont get that help that migrants do. Its complicated for sure
81 million Americans voted for this, Joe was very clear about his plans for the border and ideas concerning immigration policy. The price tag for being a Sanctuary City comes with a price tag, some of which will be impacting our already homeless population.
Same thing in NYC. Homeless everywhere. Hotels filled with migrants. My buddy tried to book a hotel room for the night in brookln and 3 different hotels cancelled their reservation on after another a couple weeks after booking because hotels are closing to house migrants. Left her without a room last minute. I booked a room in brooklyn months in advance for the same night and my reservation was cancelled last minute with no explaination or response from the hotel when i inquired about the abrupt cancelation assumedly because of the same reason. NYC also basically banned Airbnbs so it left me scrambling to figure something out last minute. Its the same in manhattan and queens. The city runs on tourism and tourists cant even get a place to stay. Its bad.
All these hotels and facilities that house illegal immigrants are profiting off the crisis by taking the government contracts. I wouldn’t be surprised that the hotel owners are charging the government triple the day rate (maybe more) knowing the government is desperate. It explains why they are not prioritizing tourism bookings they make more money housing illegals.
Chicago and New York are tough cities and has been holding it down for America for a long time. I know tensions are high right now and we have alot of internal problems already. But this nation is built tough and we will figure it out. Also New York wouldn’t be the mega city it is without immigrants. I also get the frustration with Americans. We got this.
They banned AirBnB in NYC so folks could have more housing because tourists are wanting to stay in trendy neighborhoods making it even more difficult to afford rent because of people like yourself lol.
Many of the homeless are drug addicts and alcoholics. Housing comes with the stipulation that they would have to be sober. Most aren’t willing to enter into that agreement. Would have to offer something like a “ Wet house” which the UK has. ( in this case it involves providing a controlled amount of alcohol to the residents.) These are people that have not been successful with recovery programs. The idea behind it is that it gives them a safe place to live and a sense of community. And I guess it’s also a “ win” for tax payers. It’s a form of “ harm reduction”. The homeless people that should be a priority are the ones working who still can’t afford a roof over their heads. The immigrants in this vid seem like they are grateful and want to contribute to society. But no city can afford to have an unlimited number pouring in! It’s simply a matter of logistics, not one of humanity.
@@Catherine-u8lthat may be true however our country has a history of helping other people when we have problems within. Also the fact that the United states is slowly moving towards corruption like Venezuela
Very true, too many homeless people... How can they make room for the people coming into the country and not the years people have been on the streets. Veterans that defended the US, out on the streets. Jumping from place to place just trying to live, its sad man. If we have the money, everyone should be indoors. Don't hide the money until you want yourselves to look better and end up trashing yourself 10x over.
Here's an answer, albeit an unfortunate one, as I too believe all people should have housing. Migrants contribute to the economy. They take the low-paying and difficult jobs that most Americans don't want to work, and there's a surplus of these kind of jobs, especially now. *Agriculture in this country would literally collapse overnight without migrant workers* as that entire sector heavily relies on their labor, with immigrants comprising the vast majority of agricultural workers. Though in the short term accommodating these newly arrived migrants will cost sanctuary cities like Chicago a fortune, in the long-term their participation in the workforce and taxes will benefit the economy substantially. Homeless people on the other hand, are unfortunately a drain on the economy. Most do not have jobs or contribute much in the way of tax dollars, so they're a net loss for the economy. In my own personal opinion this doesn't mean they don't deserve housing, but in the view of politicians and even the public, this makes them a burden. This is a systemic failure where the root causes fail to be addressed, in large part because of apathy and negligence, but also because it's a very complicated problem to solve. Homelessness is a very multifaceted issue, as there's so many contributing factors - mental health, drug addiction, lack of education, unemployment, criminality. It's very hard to stabilize let alone rehabilitate many of these people. So unfortunately with that kind of glaring contrast between migrants and the homeless, it's not hard to see why politicians would choose to allocate tax dollars to migrants and not the homeless.
@@purplespaceship2417 Well said, I can understand that side of it. But my main focus is our vets. As you said mental health, drug addiction, lack of education, unemployment, criminality. These are all part of the people who don't want to try and establish themselves as a working citizen, get clean or help. I know many people who have just fallen on hard times, but they went through blood, sweat and tears climbing out of that hole. Personally I don't believe it should be this hard to get help and get out of that place as I also know a lot that failed. If people are wanting to change there lives just like how the migrants did, why don't they get the help migrants are. As I said before everyone should have a roof over there head, and food in there stomachs, but some go without for days. Go from place to place looking for a job, getting turned down because they don't have a bank account, Place of residence, or clean clothes consistently on there backs. I believe everyone should have a chance at the American dream, but with everything going on in the us. Its hard to get by working a full time job, causing many people to work a second just to pay for housing, food and other necessities. The problem comes from the top top, if it can ever be fixed up there many people would have a lot better of a chance at establishing themselves here, and also coming here.

God knows who we really letting in and what problems there going to bring with them tho.. I live in NY and already seen a number of supper sketchy characters to say the least… It’s already becoming a big issue for a lot of locals who had these people dumped in our community and no plans of what to do with them once they get here.. I live in a pretty quiet area and lately it’s been flipped upside down nearly. Not to mention that some are even trying to snake jobs away from locals and working and for much less when the wages are already barely enough to get by in this state.. Eventually it’ll only wind up being just as bad as the place’s that everyone flees away from and the problem people that slip in with the decent ones who just want some sense of safety and want nothing more than to return home to the places the know and love as soon as possible. It’s all the other ones that have other plans of causing problems and disappearing into crowded populated areas that are a huge concern too..… But we definitely need to take care of our own people before we go worrying about the rest of the world!…. 😏🙄🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

The entire thing is allowed, facilitated, and capitalized upon by the cartel. It's not just people who want to go across the border who are going. Every politician who advocates for this to continue ignores that part. All by design.
Chicago still is a nice city, tell that to the millions of international tourists Chicago sees annually. If anything it’s got more nicer with downtown expanding from new skyscrapers being built because they’re always under construction with more breaking ground at the beginning of next year. Nothing is perfect in this world and every city has its problems this is nothing new from ancient cities to current. Also never live in fear, especially in fear of another human being that bleeds just like you.
@@kyler247 when is the last time you check the statistics for yourself to see what are Americans top 4 cities with the highest murder rate. When you find out the top 4 circle back around.
Its always been a nice city. In fact, the best big city in the US 7 times in a row. Also ranked most beautiful big city in America. Chicago is built off waves of immigrants. This is nothing new. Everyone in Chicago has or had someone that is was a immigrant. Except the Potawatomis
@@kyler247The highest murder rate is in St.Louis. They basically have no migrants or immigrants. Also Detriot, Memphis, Milwaukee, Cleveland have higher murder rates. Chicago can even get the highest murder rate of the Midwest. Much less of the whole country. Look it up 🤡
The evolution of your content since I first stumbled on your videos a year or so ago does not cease to impress me. From humble beginnings with prank videos to hard-hitting well-researched docs, you've leveled up tremendously. You even mentioned the Darien Gap, that 66 mile stretch of treacherous, impenetrable jungle that many migrants must pass through on their route from S. America to N. America. Most people have never heard of it let alone have any knowledge of it and it rarely comes up in reports about migrants. Glad to see a fellow Milwaukeean getting the recognition he deserves🙌
You also have to know the other side of this story. Venezuela has been getting better, wanna know why? All the criminals went to the US, the people you see in these videos, they are all low class, lazy, in general, they were the same people that made venezuela what it is now, i bet they barely know how to write the spanish language. Before someone comes and calls me racist, im mexican, find someone who speak spanish and look up interviews in venezuela, that exactly what the people there say!!! As a mexican, i couldnt be happier that these people are gone, enjoy them!! We got some people from venezuela and haiti stay here, but they know they wont be handed everything for free and most of these people get a job and live a normal life, not whats happening in the US.
What blows my mind is the same people protesting will turn around and vote the same way. Cant have sympathy for what you asked for and continue to vote for.
From Chicago I met a Venezuelan guy he told me stayed over on university, cool guy but he was in a bad situation and needed to go to a hospital I offered him an Uber but he preferred to wait for a friend, he was wondering near my house lost, with a beaten up face he told me he got the scars on his journey he also invited me to go job searching with him when he gets in a better position so we exchanged numbers… I didn’t know about this crisis tho I had noticed much more homeless downtown but I had no idea this was as big as it is
how tf do you not know that there are literally millions of illegals from everywhere that have been let in the country the past 4 years????? Do you live under a rock?
The weather is about to change fast here in Chicago. Chicagoans for the most part hunker down indoors until April. Not too many people in parks from this point and beyond, at least not for any extended periods. Not sure how manageable it will be if the intense numbers coming in continue.

They came here illegally. Migrant is too nice a word. Also our gov't is corrupt too and we're dealing with inflation. They're coming to a country going the same way as what they're leaving. Our own citizens who have paid taxes all their lives and served in our armed forces need help. You really can't blame Texas. They can't handle it either and the problem there is much worse.
They're illegal immigrants or refugees depending on your political stance. Calling them simply migrants is disrepectful to anyone with a brain... I feel for any human being who's struggling but as a midwesterner myself its a slap in the face to hard working down-trodden americans to aid these people but not your own kind. I'm from flint area and anytime we spend billions on these type of causes i just shake my head because there's plenty of people here that need the aid.
A record of over 33 TRILLION dollars of debt. Another billion of debt every 24 hrs. Another trillion of debt every 45 days. Collapse countdown. Defaulting on the debt is inevitable.
Chicagoans dont have a problem necessarily with migrants, but how theyve been recieving special treatment. It sad to see our homeless population struggle because of this. Immigrants are what make Chicago great, but the city has its priorites backwards treating the homeless and immigrant situations separately.
Not only are they losing money from having to support millions of people coming here. They are losing tourism money. I don’t live far away. Going to Chicago was always a nice time. I have no desire to go now but knowing what the safety is like there. Between this and them letting the young people loot and calling it “gatherings” it’s too risky right now.
We used to go there all the time - it was sooo much fun. Stopped about 10yrs ago. The crime downtown was getting worse - and now with illegal Venezuelans housed downtown - INN OF CHICAGO. No way.
Economic reasons are not a legal asylum claim, these people are here illegally. It's infuriating these resources are going to people in the country illegally.
Man chicago been had crimes since way back yall crying bout the crimes these people commit but never cried about the ones that were already happening when people would spray houses with switches and just shooting at people broad daylight why didn’t anybody do anything about that how are you supposed to even fix this problem thats happening when yall cant even control the crimes that has already been happening in improvished neighborhoods and how come now that these people came yall suddenly want to actually help the homeless people when most americans just ignored the problem and just told them to find a job nobody was willing to help them get shelter or a job or clothes or food so its so weird that people act this way now because of the immigration crisis happeining
It’s sad their making this country a dumping ground… If they don’t have a place to put them… Put them somewhere where they can start farming or actually work.. They’re just putting them somewhere it’s already over populated and what looks like have zero plan… smh 🤦🏻♀️
I have a solution... If you want to cross the border illegally then they should be mandated to join the U.S Military. This will achieve a few things it will solve the military recruitment crisis, it will lead more of these people to citizenship (automatically become citizens), it will test their loyalty to this nation and they'll have jobs just like they want.
Also, there was no money to help American tax paying citizens with $10,000 to assist with the student loans but there’s endless money for Ukraine, Israel & for the immigrants!! Make it make sense!! 😂
NYC resident here, have so many mixed feelings about this current migrant situation. Our Mayor Eric Adam’s at first wanted all of the migrants to be welcomed, but now wants to stop as it’s getting worse . This hasn’t effected me as a resident, but it is getting out of hand now in NYC. I’ve also heard that they get $600 weekly which they make more than some low income residents here. Many mixed feelings about this current migrant situation.

@@sarbantz I'll say this first; saying racism use to be a way to make someone feel guilty or if that's all someone could come up with, pull the race card. Doesn't work on me. Good try. I don't see how you sense racism truly when it's about our borders being invaded like crazy with people from many different places. Not a specific race. There isn't a specific color or race . You speak on Chicago having enough room for them all; put that aside for a moment and think that maybe it's not that there isn't room but it's the fact they are getting free money, a phone, a roof over their head and getting treated good. Many US citizens on the street, trying to work, battling addiction, have healthcare problems and not a damn thing to help the people who have been here since birth. It's not about people coming here, it's about the rush of so many not knowing where they are from, their intentions, diseases being brought over the border and like NY, laying out on sidewalks as if it's nothing. If you did research, you'd see where having open borders and migrants pouring in is one big way to usher in communism. That's usually how communist nations begin. And this makes you think of racism? Doesn't fit the definition. Also have you noticed that so many are young men, military age and they've been doing military training already which includes indoctrination about US citizens . So there's a good reason they had everyone come in . No accident. A friend of mine is an Uber driver and he was driving a migrant to it's destination. Said he was nice and also said he was a migrant who was trained for backup military. Not for other countries. But being trained to fight us if we rise up. They give them an app on their phone and when it beeps, that means they have a message and have to return to their location. Said when he got here he wasn't forced but basically pushed to take the classes, military. And the US is using them as pawns to wipe us out. He said the guy was from Columbia and said he actually doesn't want to be in the US anymore but can't leave. So where's the racism?? This has nothing to do with color. And you know that.
You can walk thousands of miles but you can’t put some Seeds in the ground and grow food all year long. Yes Chicago sounds like the place to go where it’s -10 and windy
Thank you for visiting Chicago and sharing this story. Unfortunately most people will tell you the migrants are the problem. What they fail to realize is the city can’t help itself, so how can it help others?
Well, you guys used to make fun of Texas for opposing illegal inmigración (not sure if you still do it). Do you remember ? Weird how your city is collapsing after receiving a tiny fraction of the illegal immigrants you can find in Texas . Now, Texas, unlike your city and state, is not a “sanctuary” for people who violate U.S. laws.

When the city of Chicago demolished the project buildings , they relocated all their residents to the south suburbs , which has created the "wild one hundreds"...
I feel bad for the families that truly are coming here to do better for their selves and their families. On the other hand we have Americans born on American soil that need help, we have Veterans that fought for our ability to live the American dream still living homeless. We can't help others until we help ourselves first. Once we build up our economy, bring jobs back to America and invest into our communities that make the American Dream what it is we can not help. The politicians pockets are being filled with money and we as citizens are the ones that are forced to make this work and clean up the mess they are throwing on us.
Crazy how they come here illegally then complain about free housing we give them when we have our own housing and homeless crisis already. Let’s care for our own first
if you grew up in America and are homeless you are probably a drug addict....just saying there are plenty of programs to get help you just dont choose them
I like how the migrant basically said "They don't know what it's like on the inside" in regard to the hotel when asked how he feels about homeless Americans feeling they're being treated unfairly. So surely he wouldn't have a problem switching sleeping spots with them right?
Ugh the living spaces are so cramped, the food isn't full 10 course meals, they only gave us 5 games for our brand new ps5 and now the 10 games I wanted, and the doctor is forced to look at me and give me medication all for free... It's so bad!
Whoever’s reading this, i pray that whatever you’re going’s through gets better and whatever you’re struggling with or worrying bout is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen
I simply just quoted the man. God forbid anything similar to what is going on in Venezuela 🇻🇪 ever happens to you during your Lifetime here in America; you’d be in their shoes empathizing some trying to seek refuge elsewhere. I can imagine someone such as yourself traveling to South America and having to travel through the Darién Gap re-evaluating your Life and wondering 💭 “why me”?
And what's your response if what happens in america to make it like Venezuela is actually caused by the immigrants? What do you do then? Learn about the statistics.@@JosuéDelValle-u3u
Chicago has enough space for every migrant. It is a big city with more than enough space like hotels, shelters, community centers, colleges, police stations, parks, graveyards, under bridges, etc. I sense a little bit of racism in comments here.
No way bro was in my hood 🔥 Btw thanks for covering this. The last few months since this crisis have brought lots of changes to the city and it's sad to see these people everywhere I go having to be in the streets.
It doesn't matter what part of the world, a person lives at, it doesn't matter if they're poor, or not, but most of the time, you'll be able to tell the difference between a good person, and a bad person. Not one of these guys, that were interviewed, look as though, they're good people. They look 💯 thugs.
Millions of legal Hispanics here already. Many from climates much wamer than Venezuela. Coats, heaters and warm bus/train lamps stations where invented. In Chicago's winter i actually get too hot amd sweaty and take off clothes to get fresh air. Love our winters ❤
If people of Chicago don't think santuary City with 1000 people, wait until there are 10,000 migrants coming into their city. Or maybe 100,000. Eventually they will feel their resource thinning and their jobs option reducing.
