El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser declared a state of emergency Saturday in response to the worsening immigration crisis, which has left scores of migrants sleeping on the streets in recent days.

Though Leeser has long resisted issuing a state of emergency declaration, he said Saturday the move would allow the city to tap into much-needed additional resources, which will become necessary with the Dec. 21 end to Title 42 expulsions, the Trump-era policy that permits Customs and Border Protection to expel migrants without the usual legal review. The policy, which was enacted during the pandemic, allowed migrants to be sent back to Mexico or their home countries to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in holding facilities.

Leeser said the sight of people on downtown streets with temperatures dipping below freezing was the catalyst for the decision.

    1. He’s not in charge of anything. He’s in the marionette political pawn class like Trudeau, and Macron, and the rest of the puppets. They all feign incompetence so you don’t realize their attacks are intentional and fight back.

    2. Absolutely… But, there are many dirty rats that are also guilty. I only wish it were their families that would be affected.

    3. Peculiarly, Fernando Garcia, whose SECOND language i English, says ” We have two crises coming together “…he’s trying to say the plural of Crisis: While OSCAR doesn’t know how to day the plural of the word ‘Ordnance?” Just showing how our GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS often don’t even speak our language ? Kudos to Mr. GARCIA! Of course NEITHER want to address the subject of, how many of these “asylum seeking illegals” are bringing FALSI’S COVERTS with them?

      CONSIDERING TEXAS…. WHO KNOWS where those 9 0 PLANES FULL of illegals including “Humanly Trafficked Women and Children” are living TODAY?Funny, in JOE’S SPEECH three days ago, the one wherein he finally was able to read his teleprompter; HE STATED WE ARE SENDING 150 Billion dollars to AFRICA.

      This seems to be moreover “Invasion to seek travajo, so we can send money back home ?”

      ” Wretch Like me” and
      “I Ain’t no Middleman”

  1. Making money is an action. Keeping money is
    a behavior, but “Growing money is a wisdom” I
    heard this from someone.❣️

    1. Bull they will take American jobs. They will drain social services, they will kill Americans, and won’t bat an eye while doing this. Our economy wont grow. They will send the most if their money back to Their own country. This happened on a smaller scale in my home county in 1960’s when they brought illegals in to work in the tomato canning factory 5 miles from where I lived. It was horrible.

    2. You mean, after they vote, and find trajavo here then send all of OUR money back to their families ?

  2. This is ridiculous, citizens should arm up and protect their own border! Government won’t do it but will worry about Ukraines sovereignty!!

    1. @Nick Thompson so just keep letting them pour over the border? I swear, some people are just so clueless

  3. People of America – I hope you have been preparing for this…
    I pray that each of you are willing to protect your family –
    Land and at all cost.

  4. Every citizen who voted Democrat should be mandated to house a immigrant family for minimum of two years with zero Government subsidies.

  5. Good time to come to the USA, they jst raised the minimum wage to 42K. Local McDonalds is already almost all hispanic workers and they can’t even take english orders properly. Better brush up on your spanish.

    2. @Lynda The $150B sent to Africa, watever money the govt is spending is taken out of taxpayers bank accounts cuz i believe they r about 1.7T over budget, which is about 100+% over wat they collected in tax revenues this yr. So it’s as if we r really being taxed at 40-75%, and not the 20-40% they pretend to tax us at. This is reflected in the dollar devaluation causing constantly rising prices annually.
