As if the USA isn't in enough trouble because of the forced shut downs, now they beg hostiles to invade us and take... listen to the video, because they rob and steal... what little is left to us. It's almost like that's been the plan, all along... to make the USA into a third world nation, straight up. We've already lost the Constitution that protected us from the Government. Now the vultures arrive to pick clean our bones.
Breath.

Perhaps you can tell us the real reason why conservatives are only interested in taking action against asylum seekers who cross our Southern border.
I wasn't aware that this was the case. Maybe I don't fit your definition of a Conservative. You might ask someone who fits your definition of a Conservative. I haven't met one.

you are really riled up, aren't you? I wasn't the one who brought up money in the first place. Read more closely

Hebrews 13: 1 Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers

How else were you thinking to get food and clothes for these invaders you want to support? Go door to door with an empty box?

Read more closely what? Barnabus' letter wasn't written to me. He's a fellow-traveler with Paul who went to the gentiles. Galatians 2:7-9 If I did read your verse as though it were written to me, I would've started with the verse above that one. Do you think it's God's will that you rob your brothers to reward the hostiles for invading the US? Did you even listen to the video where they tell us these hostiles are robbing and murdering people? If you help these enemies, what does that make you?

You are no longer conversing, you are judging, therefore I leave you to your self-righteousness. You are too busy with that and calling a mass of people "the hostiles" like they all are out to get you.

"In any case, the fact that illegal aliens pay taxes is not the key issue; specifically it’s whether they are paying their way in America by contributing more in taxes than they consume in public services. Significant research shows that they don’t.
A study by the Heritage Foundation concluded that they pay a good bit more in state and local taxes, a total of $17.6 billion, than ITEP’s estimate. But it also found that at all levels of government, they consume $54.5 billion more per year in tax-paid services than they pay in taxes."
Illegal Aliens’ Taxes Don’t Cover their Liabilities - CAPS

"In reality, the polar opposite is true. Federal government data shows that while roughly half of illegal immigrants file federal tax returns, the vast majority of them don’t pay any federal income taxes. Instead, they use these returns to claim refundable tax credits, which are a form of cash welfare. In other words, illegal immigrants mainly use the federal income tax code to collect money from U.S. citizens."
About 6.1 Million Illegals Filed Taxes in US – Many Didn't Pay, Received Refunds

Think they don't know all this before they invade the US?

If you had an answer to the question all ready it was silly to ask me.

Illegal economic migrates are a problem, not an invasion. Enough with the histrionics.

The Gospel of the Kingdom commands that it's followers keep the Davidic Kingdom Ordinances, which makes these disciples not vicariously righteous, but personally righteous... the same way that following the Commandments from Sinai made the Israelites personally righteous.

The friends of Jesus do what Jesus commands. Jesus' brothers do the whole will of the Father. What Jesus calls neighbours are fellow countrymen and those strangers who want to become proselytes.

Something Hurtful

I already gave you the reasons for the threat. Maybe you couldn't be in the right places to witness it.
You gave us reasons that the problem will be expensive and troublesome to solve. I agree with you; it will be. I still don't see a serious threat.
Do you think the border videos and the videos of illegals being transported out to other parts of the country are fabricated?
No, probably not. Do you think it's that way all along the border? What's wrong with transporting illegals to other parts of the country?

What will Jesus have to say to the citizens of the richest country on earth labeling poor immigrants as thieves?... Will you be the sheep or the goat?
Mathew 25...45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

Matthew 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them,
Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto
one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done [it] unto Me.

και αποκριθεις ο βασιλευς ερει αυτοις αμην λεγω υμιν εφ οσον εποιησατε ενι τουτων των αδελφων μου των ελαχιστων εμοι εποιησατε.--textus receptus

Matthew 12:49-50 And He stretched forth His hand toward His Disciples, and said, Behold My mother and My brethren![50] For whosoever shall do the will of My Father which is in Heaven, the same is My brother and sister and mother.

When Jesus commanded us to welcome the stranger, he didn't place a qualifier on it

Yes He did: the qualifier is My Brethren... defined as His Disciples... defined as those who continue in His word.

John 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, If ye continue in My word, then are ye My Disciples indeed;

meno = a primary verb; to stay (in a given place, state, relation or expectancy):--abide, continue, dwell, endure, be present, remain, stand, tarry (for), X thine own.

John 15:1-8 [7] If ye abide in Me and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will and it shall be done unto you.[8] Herein is My Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit: so shall ye be My Disciples.

Word-studies are like the synapses in a brain... one leading to another... until the whole brain is lit up because all paths are connected. In the Kindom of David on Earth, this will become more evident, IMO. So, the present is our training.

Do you really think that you’re going to get a “well done, good and faithful servant” for keeping poor people out of your country?

Too much sympathy for the unfortunate can make you one of them, and then you won’t be giving anyone a helping hand. Most of the people I know personally who support these largescale sanctimonious notions, as some form of biblical guideline, usually have little to no skin in the game themselves. It’s easy for them (and politicians) to give away someone else’s money and compromise their security and well-being. But, if their own social security, Medicaid, etc. gets reduced because of the strain, they’ll cry a river.

Matthew 25:22-29 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, Thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.[23] His Lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord. ...[29] For unto every one that hath shall be given and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.(= Disciples, Matthew 13:10-12)
talanton = neuter of a presumed derivative of the original form of tlao (to bear; equivalent to 5342); a balance (as supporting weights), i.e. (by implication) a certain weight (and thence a coin or rather sum of money) or "talent":--talent.

John 15:4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine, no more can ye except ye abide in Me.

zugos = from the root of zeugnumi (to join, especially by a "yoke"); a coupling, i.e. (figuratively) servitude (a law or obligation); also (literally) the beam of the balance (as connecting the scales):--pair of balances, yoke.
Matthew 11:28-30 Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.[29] Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.[30] For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.

Yep.

Isaiah 39:1-7 [2] And Ezekias was glad of their coming, and he shewed them the house of his spices and of silver and gold and myrrh and incense and ointment, and all the houses of his treasures, and all that he had in his stores: and there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, which Ezekias did not shew.[3] And Esaias the prophet came to king Ezekias, and said to him, What say these men? and whence came they to thee? and Ezekias said, They are come to me from a land afar off, from Babylon.[4] And Esaias said, What have they seen in thine house? and Ezekias said, They have seen everything in my house; and there is nothing in my house which they have not seen: yea, also the possessions in my treasuries.[5] And Esaias said to him, Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:[6] Behold, the days come, when they shall take all the things that are in thine house and all that thy fathers have gathered until this day, shall go to Babylon; and they shall not leave anything at all: and God hath said,[7] that they shall take also of thy children whom thou shalt beget; and they shall make them eunuchs in the house of the king of the Babylonians.(Esaias, LXX)

Leaked video shows illegal migrants landing at Westchester airport on secret charter flight
27 January 2022
"Leaked footage shows dozens of illegal migrants landing at a Westchester airport on a secret charter flight in the dead of night, just one of the dozens of such resettlements carried out by the Biden administration last year.
The bodycam footage, obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request by former Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, shows migrants being flown from southern border states to White Plains, New York, and then on to other parts of the U.S.
In the August 13, 2021 footage, Westchester Police Sgt. Michael Hamborsky is seen questioning federal contractors, who are overseeing migrants embarking and boarding American Dream charter buses in the early morning hours on the tarmac of a Westchester Airport, about what exactly is going on."
Leaked video shows illegal migrants landing at Westchester airport on secret charter flight | Daily Mail Online


"Unlike last year, the planes that have been landing at White Plains the last few weeks have been arriving before the airport’s midnight curfew, and there are fewer each week. They are stopping en route, in cities like Houston, Texas, and Oklahoma City, as opposed to Jacksonville, Fla., where The Post observed them last year disgorging migrants.
Publicly available flight data show World Atlantic Airways charter planes began landing again in White Plains in late February."

THE BORDER: 'NO IMAGINABLE SCENARIO' TO AVOID ANOTHER DISASTER. The chief of the U.S. Border Patrol, Raul Ortiz, recently said his officers have encountered 1 million illegal border crossers in the first six months of fiscal year 2022 — that is, since Oct. 1, 2021. That is a big increase over fiscal year 2021, when there were 1.734 million encounters in the entire year. And that was a big increase over fiscal year 2020, during the pandemic, when there were 458,000 encounters, and fiscal year 2019, when there were 977,000 encounters, which was a record high at the time.
