There are too many illegal people that are not being vetted not being checked for diseases just let loose in our country on the premise that they show up for their hearing. There is a legal way to do this, and it's not fair to those who have done it the right way.

It is not really a political question. It is a question of security. We have none. We are wide open for a terrorist attack. The last major one resulted in 20 years of war.

It's both Political, and a security breach. The illegal immigrants that crossed the border in December alone, is only 5,000 less people that live in Boone, Callaway, and Cole counties combined. Biden has launched a war, against the United States of America. Our National Debt just exceeded 34 billion

It should be a major issue with anyone who locks their doors when they sleep. Anyone with common sense would know that, that's why Biden does not know that.

It is definitely an issue. It's too bad Republicans want to KEEP it an issue to campaign on rather than negotiate with Democrats to fix the problem.

As a teacher, I have literally received dozens of Venezuelan students into my classroom. They are great! The work is hard, but that’s what we all need to do. We need to view people as assets not deficits.

Not an issue. Nature has no borders. When was the last time a goose was shot because it had crossed the border illegally?

With his biases, he should not be using his position to meddle in gov on his own behalf. He's looking after no one but himself.

Both of Steve's comments are true and accurate.

I totally disagree, he needs nothing and was only working to help the majority. The waste uncovered is excessive, no one can argue that.

He's an absolute nutcase. And an immigrant from South Africa, who grew up under apartheid, with no security clearance, has any business ransacking our government, accessing private data or having any influence of government departments investigating his businesses.

He's also brilliant, accomplished and worked for us, the Americans, for free.

While I understand he had limited time, I feel more time would have benefited the country. That being said, I am grateful for the time he gave and the job he did. I look forward to seeing the results in the near future.

I hope he trained the people he left behind. He did an amazing job in only 130 days.

He has uncovered so much waste and corruption in the US Government. I only wish congress acted on what he found!

He was showing the truth about government waste. Only those who benefit from all the corruption are happy to see him go. What I'm sorry about is that he's become the hate toy and target of the opposition. He deserves better.

Why should people in Central and eastern Missouri be required to finance something for Kansas City. Totally insane.

Just more political corruption. They know they can do it and get away with it. They did it with Busch stadium and the additional ballpark village.
