Saw them talking about this in congress on CNN today. They’re trying to decide whether or not to have the coast guard meet them and turn them away.

Florida could get hit with wave of migrants, Biden admin warns

Army General Laura Richardson said that the military was "ready if we need to deal with a mass migration."

Department of Defense (DoD) officials testifying in Congress on Tuesday discussed the possibility of a "mass migration" into Florida as conditions in Haiti continue to deteriorate.

Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz said during the House Armed Services Committee hearing that he was "deeply concerned" about the possibility of a large number of Haitian migrants coming to the Sunshine State "as a Florida man."

Conditions in Haiti have been becoming increasingly dire in recent months due to widespread gang violence and civil unrest. Armed gangs now reportedly control around 80 percent of Port-au-Prince. Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry announced his resignation on Tuesday.

At Tuesday's hearing, Gaetz asked what President Joe Biden's administration was doing to prepare for a "wave" of migrants fleeing Haiti, prompting DoD official Rebecca Zimmerman to say that preparations were being made for a potential increase in refugees.

UnFreakingSustainable. R’s and D’s should all be in prison over this.

New York City is spending about $387 per day per migrant to provide food and shelter to the 64,800 migrants in the city, according to data from NYC City Hall. ($25 million/day.)

Florida?????

Florida?????

Come to Florida and see all the opportunities to make money and build your wealth. There is a real estate developer in your neck of the woods (Ankeny) doing just that in Florida. Of course you are not interested in making money , you are more interested in taking from others by taxing the hell out of them.

Why do conservatives always assume that the people they're arguing with aren't interested in making money and aren't better off financially? You'd be surprised.

Nah, just not a fan of wealthier people avoiding taxes.

Maybe that's just me?

The gentleman was not arguing or discussing. He was trying to insult. Why do the liberals on here continue to try and insult others?

 

[An Iowa fan]

I am sorry I got involved in this. I will stay away.

 

[thewop]

I would argue this Haitian situation is sort of why asylum laws exist...hence we should welcome them (admittedly I don't know how to ensure we're accepting those who need help vs. those who are in violent gangs).

These people have a much better case for asylum than 99% of others who show up at the southern border.

I think the conservatives on here regularly using terms like Libtards make this comment sound silly.

There was nothing in the particular comment you replied to that was personally insulating. You're reading things that aren't there.

Why don't they just hop over to the Dominican Republic, why would they need to come to the U.S. we are already full of illegals?

 

[goldmom]

Because the DR has a very tight border and they do not want the Haitians streaming over. DR has some problems of their own and don’t want to import more.

It is kinda funny that Miami has done everything they can to rid themselves of spring breakers, only to trade them in for the cannibal followers of Barbecue. It all evens out in the end.

lol. You’d cry like a little b!tch if you had to live near a load of Haitian immigrants. These aren't your grand daddy’s Mexicans.

Obviously there are plenty of great people from Haiti, but by and large, the cultural and value system differences are vast and many will struggle to assimilate. They are also a human development index bottom feeder, which is a big reason why we don’t give them amnesty.

Why are some U.S. politicians so willing to turn America into the world's dumping ground for the failed citizenry of shithole countries?

Your ignorance is showing again, Rico. No one wants Haitians any where. It has been a corrupt mess for decades….Yhere’s gonna be a lot of killing there in the near future….

Strong borders do seem to work, too bad Diapers Joe doesn't understand that.

So, everyone reading this thread should take 5 minutes and read about this. The (largely enslaved) Haitians had a revolution, and won their independence from France back in like 1820. However, France then succesfully sued and sanctioned the new independent Haitian government in international courts for "loss of value of French assests," being the value of the slave plantations, estates, and yes, even the value of the former slaves themselves.

So Haiti had to spend the next 150 YEARS paying France BILLIONS of dollars that should have gone to developing schools, roads, infrastructure, hospitals, universities, etc., leaving the country stripped of resources (France even took the forests which depleted and allowed to wash away the fertile ground) and wealth of the country. Sad story, really. And f*ck France.

None of what he posted means we should give Haitians amnesty en masse. What happened to Haiti is absolutely sad; maybe the French should take them.

 

[hexumhawk]

DeSantis should turn them away and protect his border

 

[ericram]

What will little ronny d do about that?

 

[Formerly Rockymtnole]

When I was a kid in South Fl our church supported a local Haitian church. These were the original refugees from the 70s and 80s. Some of the nicest, most mild-mannered people you could meet.

Side story, my son has a good buddy who was adopted from Haiti as a baby. It’s crazy to think how different his life is now vs had he not been adopted.

You got this from a website called "legalinsurrection"? I'm sure it isn't filled with lies like most of the russian disinformation that maga scum likes to spread.

That wasn’t my point. It was directed at the usual suspects who were flexing over their claims about the inferiority of Haitians.

I’m more than ok with Haitians immigrating to the US. I’d rather have them than the MAGAs.
