So sad! It's only going to get worse, unfortunately. Biden has released thousands of immigrants into our country. Of all ages, gender and crime backgrounds. Free everything! They will have a better life than the born citizens of this great country! We, the people and this country, are being destroyed!😭 God help us and protect us 🙏🇺🇸
