America’s border is seen by many as the dividing line between a fearful past and a safer, better future. CBS Reports followed Iranian migrant Shahab as he crossed the jungle passes of the Darién Gap, and now joins him once again as he enters America. Having risked life and limb to reach the United States, his future is no less uncertain. This documentary was first published on June 8, 2018.

Asylum means fleeing violence or danger back home. It doesn’t mean seeking a bigger paycheck.
Homeless situation is about to get a lot worse. There is zero hope for large cities across the country. End of empire!
😢
This has to stop, I guess our citizens fall through the cracks making way for this? It’s discouraging and nobody cares
Let's load up, get a free phone with service, free housing, free medical and a free check. Thank you American taxpayers. Thanks to our politicians we can't even take care of our veterans and homeless. Nice job.
Mexico is the best place to migrate to, no crime now they've emptied their prisons into America.
Now americans have no food, no water, no shelters.
BECAUSE DEMOCRATS ARE GENOCIDAL
You too can come to the land that's been stolen by the natives you too can live prosper like the rest of us . Bring your whole family. We all together are immigrants that are living on Stolen land
Maybe a video about citizens who watched their country be invaded and their own government was derelect in their duty.

Where's all the porta-potties?
You think they need a home? Let them in to yours, CBS and those in favor of it.
So there was a whole movie crew following these people great makeup artist is this a movie lot how much did this cost to produce how much were paid to follow these people around instead of giving them money and taking care of them they became a money making project they're misery is the prophet to this movie company the studio and that's what we're seeing how to profit off the misery of people great now we see how the American Media uses the innocent people to profit to make money off of their misery is it America media wonderful money first the lives of women and children last month
Come in and come all.
I hope this is not the first of 2 Million documentaries from CBS "News" covering each of the "immigrants" that have come across Joe Biden's open borders.
Send them to China, India, and Russia. They're always welcoming new immigrants. Cheap labor equals more money for big corporations.
I’m sorry as much as their stories are sad or whatever. We’re in no position to save the world. Everyone expects free healthcare and handouts when they come here. We need to fix our own country first before taking on charity work.
CBS can play their fair share and corporate CBS can house plenty of them.
Right CBS ?
You have been ignoring this for the last 24 + months
Why now?
Why not before where you told by the administration to ignore it?
Why pay taxes when the government does not or refuse to do its job and maintain border sovereignty?
Go to Canada, they give away free stuff
How touching! Now how about a video on the 600,000 Americans that are living on the street right now!
Asylum seekers and refugees don't get to waltz into a country of their choosing.
Asylum my a$$. These people are coming here because of their economic struggles that they themselves created by their own corrupt elected officials
Welcome to America. Enter legally.
GET A VISA
APPLY FOR CITIZENSHIP
RETURN HOME AFTER VISA EXPIRES
THEN, AFTER HAVING FOLLOWED US LAW, BECOME AN AMERICAN CITIZEN
In case anyone forgot, America was built by immigrants. And America needs immigrants in order to keep building. Power is in numbers. We’re a militant country, and 30 percent of our US Military are people with immigrant families. Not to mention the hundreds of thousand of businesses that depend on immigrant workers such as our farming and agriculture industry. If you don’t want immigrants in the US than you don’t want the advantage, the power that comes in numbers. It would be catastrophic if we kicked out every immigrant. Be grateful we have resources and plans to welcome immigrants so that our country can continue to prosper. Instead of focusing your energy on hate and difference, let’s teach our kids and rethink our prejudices. This world needs more love and care. If you’re reading this from a thousand dollar iPhone in the USA, than you have the resources to read and learn about what it takes to become the most powerful country. Hate will always lose and your God knows this.
This is NOT a media outlet !! This is a section of the communications department of the globalist Democrat party of the USA !!!! CBS used to be truthful and unbiased once !!!
We need to start sharing the wealth and start sending them to UN countries world wide. They come here, they get on a plane, and find out the destination on arrival. Imagine how thrilled the Chinese will be to receive slaves airmail.
This doesn't have to keep going on.. Biden and his Administration are allowing it and doing everything to keep the border wide open.. This is Treason for allowing a full scale invasion of our country.. Send them to prison
He is not happy…but he should be thinking how he is no being persecuted as that was the reason to left his country.
