Alas, like Harry & Meghan, I too have been ousted from the royals.I'm certain that @Revoltingest meant the royal "we".
Did you not read the article.. Appears not
The city of Brownsville administers these rapid tests at the bus station, after migrant families are released by the Border Patrol. A spokesperson for Brownsville confirmed that, since they began doing these tests Jan. 25, 108 migrants have tested positive for Covid-19, which is 6.3 percent of those who took the test.
Eva Orellana, 29, who is from Honduras and who tested positive, said she was going to take the bus to North Carolina with her 3-year-old daughter. "On the way, we were wearing a mask all the time, gel, washing our hands," she said. "Really, I don't feel anything."
Those who tested positive and spoke to Telemundo did not have any document indicating their Covid-19 test results; they said they were simply told by the station workers after taking the test.
It's gonna be a challenge, no doubt, but Biden is much more compassionate towards people, including children, than was and is Trump. A large part of this problem was and is caused by Trump's removal of any foreign aid to those in the Northern Triangle Countries that still has not been restored.
Now, when I say "foreign aid", I'm not referring to just dumping money on them because we simply cannot trust their governments. Also, we should try and work as closely with their neighbors instead of pretty much ignoring them, which is what the last administration largely did.
Enabling isn't compassion. Importing undocumented cheap labor that lives off the grid is not "compassion". That's just virtue signaling by do-gooders and exploitation by business owners. Coming from resource rich countries it would be more compassionate to encourage them to fix the problems in their countries of origins."Nice" stereotype, plus the last line is nothing short of being sheer nonsense.
Some people do show compassion towards others and not see everything being just partisan politics. Biden has long been known even by many Pubs as being a moral and compassionate person, but we certainly can't say the same about Trump.
BTW, who'd you support?
You've distorted what I actually posted so as say things I didn't say.Enabling isn't compassion. Importing undocumented cheap labor that lives off the grid is not "compassion".

It really boils down to whos actually benefitting and who's not. It's a matter of discernment and practicality to make immigration a win win for both.It's gonna be a challenge, no doubt, but Biden is much more compassionate towards people, including children, than was and is Trump.

Amen.It really boils down to whos actually benefitting and who's not. It's a matter of discernment and practicality to make immigration a win win for both.
Well it would have to be both, the Citizens and those who migrate here.That depends on what you consider a win.

If no jobs are lost and there is plenty of work around, plus health concerns stay stable, and whatnot, then all this factioning would become a non issue.
Thing is you would need a well thought out way to accomplish that, and not have that mentality of figuring out things after problems surface if any.
Some background information for you. The governor of Texas was attacked by Biden for totally dropping controls against Covid19. He ended mask requirements and is opening up all businesses to pre-Covid standards:These numbers say nothing on face value as far as I can tell.
I think migrants are looking for a better standard of life. Asking others to lower theirs as an accommodation is going to be a very hard sell, and defeats the reason why migrants are coming in the first place.That only applies to some cases. In some cases for refugees, your standard doesn't apply, because the standard for a win is different.
The refugee gets a better live and you gave the refugee a better life despite not meeting your standards for work and health.

I recall a Freakonomics podcast debunking your claim.Well, studies have shown, that while you need money to achieve a certain level of living for you to be happy, money beyond that level doesn't mean that you become more happy with more money. The idea that more and more money makes to happy just be having more money is without evidence, just like God.

What mattered most was the relative level of wealth &
benefits enjoyed relative to others in one's proximity.
You're worried about COVID-19 now? You're interested in taking measures to control the pandemic? Glad to hear it.
Esmith strikes me as a stand up guy, & one who treatsOf course you'd never use a public health crisis as an excuse for xenophobia, would you?
Perhaps. He may have been taken in by the governor of Texas this time.Esmith strikes me as a stand up guy, & one who treats
all people well. This cannot be said of some here.
