During the great recession did America look for labor outside it's own border's let these liberals turncoats answer that question.

They're grappling so hard with grave concerns they had time to assemble and sit down for a ABC propoganda piece.

3 Failed Mayors

Could it be they all have the same policies?

Problems created by Democrats, for Democrats.

Aren't thier voices on this a little late and weak? Like Adams on immigration.

This world wants peace to push the dictators of rusia and china out of this earth

Well the last dem that even tried to pretend to do something about policing had his daughter doxxed and threatened by the NYPD so not really that surprising

Hey ABC, when are you going to report on the Pfizer admission on hidden camera they are considering or are already mutating the COVID virus to sell more vaccines?

Similar in that they are liberals too. Losers

What do the white ones say?

Closing the borders and concentrating on building long term mental health facilities would help

Life is hard, it is very hard with a median IQ of 85.

Hahaha

hello, the problem is that the funds that should be going to help the homeless in NYC , is going somewhere else, is going to the immigrants that are coming here in NYC! and that’s wrong! come to my lower east side neighborhood! and you see homeless everywhere

Democratic mayors letting criminals run free with their no bail laws, how's that working for these people

Brought on by voting in lenient D.A.’s and unproductive politicians.

With Democrats like these who needs a reactionary Conservative Party?

He who knows not the mistakes of the past shall create the mistakes in the future! If you allow yourself to forget and allow yourself to believe the lies of Trump and the Republican Party then you give up on the Country we so dearly love!

Insanity

Join C.A.T.S. and our local law enforcement, as we fight Gun Violence TOGETHER! here in Georgia (Thomson).

Yep the border is wide open with homeless criminals coming in 💁🏾‍♂️

I'm sure it's everyone else's fault.

You should talk with Mr. Musk's housing solutions. He has good affordable housing ideas. Could people get a stipend for $20k to not have children? Children are so mistreated in this world.

Economic opportunity and SW Border fiasco are sources of problem exasperated by Biden.

Well start prosecuting criminals and it will quit

Perhaps more people should use their garden hose to wash the filth off of their lawns.

Hey, its been Democrat Party rule for decades. It's on you Dems.Learn to govern or resign! It's not a blk problem. It's a Biden bring more poor here,poor language skills, no skills, felons released from foreign jails, mentally ill, schls indoc not teach math,sci,English,history.

Obviously the most important part of ABC’s story is that they’re all black.

Homelessness should be declared national emergency

Solving society's woes by calling on the carpet. 🤡

All Democrats. Keep defunding police and releasing offenders.

Black males make up 6% of the US population and account for almost 50% of all homicides. Dems are keeping the black community poor and angry, which leads to these stats. If the black community focused on building back the family structure, crime in these cities would disappear.

Stop trying to be such victims. Black Mayors are very common today. If mayors are fake victims, people living in their cities will do the same.

Math is racist, so just don’t count the problems and they aren’t there.

All caused by democrat policies

Biden sold classified documents to China as far back as when he was senator.

So their cities have these issues because their mayors are black? 🤡

They are also three democrats.

Why only speak to black mayors? What sort of racist nonsense is this?

White supremacy is clearly alive and well in our country

Here is the chance for black leaders to rise up and tell the truth about what's going on in the black community and why it's out of control. There is a problem and it needs to be addressed

Turkey can never beat cow.

You know this is gonna suck.
