More than the highest, intentionally absurd, estaminets for a border wall. The root cause is that they have to come across the border to collect US Welfare checks. So now they can collect them without breaking into our country? We will have to expand this program to every other country soon.

It is not rocket science to see what is wrong with lots of countries in Latin America. It is corrupt government and drug cartels influence. You can pour all the money in the U.S. Treasury into most of these countries as foreign aid and "investment capital" and it would be ripped off by political hacks and the criminals who support the drug trade. If there was a level playing field many more American and other international corporations would invest in the region. Think of the result if Apple assembled IPhones in Honduras instead of China. They would do it if the labor force was there and there was responsible government.

Build a completed and reinforced fence across the entire Southern border with Mexico. Vigorously enforce laws that prevent enemy aliens from invading. Deport, without exception, all invaders who entered illegally, no matter how long ago. Impeach and convict the national assassin Biden of the treason he has committed.

I honestly don't think we have as much money as Biden has spent since he stole the presidency. Tens of Billions all over the world. If his goal is to leave us broke and desperate, vulnerable to any country with even a small army that could over take us, then he's on the right path.

Done properly, investing in these countries could keep them from coming here. But, you can be certain that with Dems in charge it will NOT be "done properly", and will be just wasted money on corruption, and probably helping the local Communist party to organize and expand.

Much of this is private funds pledged by companies, like Visa and Gap, as noted in the lead sentence. The US ought to take a page from China's Belt and Road playbook: Finance, develop, build and manage needed infrastructure. It's time to end the dictator payoff game and start being smart about the money we see tossed into these "developing" countries that never seem to develop anything beyond their own poverty. That's exactly what Gap is supporting when the company pledges "to increase the materials sourced from the region for the products they produce and sell."

Being some of the most subtle, yet effective political commentaries, the source of the ubiquitous meme had to be tracked down by the media. The media complex in this country loves to drape itself with a veil of objectivity and unbiased delivery of the facts. They claim to be adherents to only the facts, while holding those in power accountable. Yet we see frequently that there are times when simple Americans break through the press narratives with inconvenient messaging. When that occurs we see that the press reacts by holding those common citizens accountable.

How much exactly does “social justice” cost? Liberal billionaire George Soros spent at least $40 million over the last decade to answer that question, according to our latest research. Those millions helped elect scores of progressive prosecutors bent on remaking the criminal justice system to Soros’ liking.It’s not to Americans’ liking, as San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin’s recall Tuesday shows. Soros didn’t fund Boudin directly, but he donated to an anti-recall PAC. And Boudin is the first face on the “Meet the Movement” page of the Soros-funded Fair and Just Prosecution, whose conferences he’s attended.
