Uh no.
We Christians are, of course, to wisely show compassion and to evangelize those who are temporarily here among us as well to others around us. Why do I say wisely? Because some are very dangerous for your family members and friends. We've seen this thousands of times in the West.

Compassion > Empathy
Factoid: Empathy becomes very toxic when it encourages people to affirm and embrace what the Bible clearly calls sin, when it validates lies, or supports destructive policies that hurt citizens and destroy a nation. Toxic Empathy is vastly inferior to real compassion and agape love. It's true that the progressives with the help of RINOs have been exploiting Christian compassion for decades. Teachers are now leading the children out to go against Federal agents in the name of love.

Was Jesus a real refugee? He was the first missionary leaving home for you and me.. for God Father's soul-winning purpose.
How does Jesus fulfill the prophecy that says, “Out of Egypt I called my son” (Matthew 2:15)?
It's been falsely said by religious people that Jesus' parents were just like the migrants we see in Europe and the USA.
There is some truth to the idea that Jesus was a very persecuted poor man while here (unlike what false TV preachers say..), and so of course we need to pray for and consider how we treat those who are intentionally displaced and impoverished, as the Progressives/Liberals seek to keep bringing them in for votes (knowing Democrats can't win elections on their own without their cheating).
However, in the interest of accuracy, Jesus WAS NOT what one would consider a real “refugee,” either then or now.
Mary and Joseph fled with Jesus to Egypt (recorded in Matthew 2:13–15) to escape the murderous King Herod, who planned to kill the child by murdering all infant boys in Bethlehem, a massacre often called the "Massacre of the Innocents". An angel warned Joseph in a dream to take his family to Egypt.
The Bible says...
"Now when they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, 'Get up! Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod intends to search for the Child in order to destroy Him.' So Joseph got up and took the Child and His mother while it was still night, and left for Egypt. He remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet [Hosea]: 'Out of Egypt I called My Son.'" Matthew 2:13-15 amp
God the Father sent His Son here on a rescue mission. He bypassed proud Jerusalem and chose humble Bethlehem for the birth. King David had come from Bethlehem, and Christ is David’s Son (1:1).
* The Hatred Against the King (Matt. 2:13–18)
Just as Satan had tried to keep Christ from being born, now he tried to destroy Him after He was born (see Rev. 12:1–4). The flesh wars against the Spirit, and Herod (an Edomite) warred against Christ. We cannot help but admire Joseph for his faithfulness in obeying God and caring for both Mary and Jesus. Matthew quoted Hosea 11:1 to show that Christ would come out of Egypt. Herod slew not more than twenty infants, since there could not have been too many babies of that age in the town. Matthew saw in this a fulfillment of Jer. 31:15.
* The Humility of the King (Matt. 2:19–23)
Stepdad Joseph used his “sanctified common sense” here and did not return to Judea. God affirmed the decision, and the family moved to Nazareth. They were legally allowed to be there. Matthew of course refers to what “was spoken by the prophets” (v. 23, note the plural in the text) but does not give any specific OT references. The word “Nazarene” may relate to the Heb. word netzer which means “branch,” a name for Jesus. This is why Matthew wrote “prophets” (plural) since Christ is called “the Branch” in Isa. 11:1 and 4:2; also Jer. 23:5 and 33:15, and Zech. 3:8 and 6:12.
Because He lived in a despised place, Jesus was like a lowly branch; but the Branch would one day blossom with beauty and great glory.
Nazareth was an ignoble town, and Egypt was far from some first world country giving money out to migrants.
“Can anything good come from there?” asked Nathanael (John 1:46, NIV). Jesus was a humble King. He emptied and humbled Himself even unto death to come save any of us wiling to repent and believe (see Phil. 2:1–11).
Jesus’ parents (Mary and Joseph, though he was Jesus' dad) were forced to flee Bethlehem for Egypt to escape murderous King Herod's persecution.
Were Mary and Joseph really similar to all these military-aged men breaking the law and sapping off the tax-paying citizens, like many of the modern refugees we see?

No, this was not immigration because they weren't breaking the law -- both locations were within the Roman Empire. They did leave their home region to seek safety, fitting the definition of migrants. Immigrants today are not facing the government officials killing their male babies. They're coming to the Western countries for personal gain, for sexual hookups (rapes), and to sap off the taxpayers and to dominate those nations with Islam.
