( Exodus of child migrants gathers pace as plane carrying women and children returns returns to Honduras amid immigration crisis )
A flight carrying 59 women and children arrived Friday in Honduras from New Mexico, the second group of migrants from the Central American country to be deported from the United States this week. Nun Valdette Willeman welcomed the 33 children and 26 women at San Pedro Sula airport's Center for Returned Migrants. 'All the children came accompanied by their mother, none of them traveled alone,' Willeman said. She said there is a playground for the children and a place for their parents to clean up and get ready before continuing to their hometowns by bus. Each child received a small backpack with crayons, and their mothers about $24 for travel expenses.Several of the women said they had mixed emotions about failing to stay in the United States and that they now worry about paying back the thousands of dollars they borrowed to travel north. 'Part of my heart stayed in the U.S. because I missed a chance to get ahead in life,' said Isabel Rodriguez, who was deported along with her 2-year-old boy and 8-year-old daughter. 'The most important thing is that I'm with my children,' she added. Another woman who wouldn't give her name said she still owes about $7,200 she borrowed to pay the smuggler.

A whole 59?
59 out of how many thousands?
Yeah...one from each of the 57 states and two for luck.
At a Thursday Senate hearing WRT the swarm at the border, Ambassador Thomas A. Shannon, Dept of State counsellor, told senators "Mexico's Southern border strategy with Guatemala was a welcome step towards improving Mexicos ability to exercise greater control along its border with Guatemala and Belize."

================================================
Obama'S setting us up big time...he's colluding and conspiring w/ the Third World. Think extortion, kickbacks and money-laundering
AND GET THIS SCAM Honduras Juan Orlando Hernandez and Guatemala President Otto Pérez Molina and their first ladies "say" they want their children back....... and theyre "willing to cooperate" with us to send their children back as quickly as possible........ that is to say.....will cooperate "for a price".........
Honduras demands US aid, suggests 'mini-Marshall plan for Honduras'... Extortion comes to mind....and kickbacks. They emptied out their villages with greedy visions of billions in remittances expected.
Now they want to cooperate? Call this a Third World scam by opportunists who smell money.....a scam Chicago criminals know very well.
President Obama will host the presidents of Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador next week to discuss ways to stem the flow of illegal immigration, as the White House said Friday the U.S. began to return families from all three countries this week.
Mr. Obama and Vice President Joseph R. Biden will speak with the Central American leaders at the White House next Friday about ways to promote safe, legal, and orderly migration between our countries in a spirit of shared responsibility, including with respect to the return of family units, which began this week for all three countries.(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...

"Just keep em pouring over the border--I need the votes."
"I'm okay as long as I don't lose power at midterms."
Wait a minute, she can raise $7200 bucks to get here and we have to pay the return freight? What the fug is that about?
I’d like to see Sen Sessions and Cruz and Rep Gohmert be able to attend that meeting. Republicans should insist they send a couple of representatives, but, of course, they won’t.

EXCERPT---LONG READ--Former judge, Cong Louie Gomert (R-Texas) ---- As I understand, the current law prohibits encouraging or inducing and also prohibits aiding and abetting. That's generally the language we have in the State penal code here in Texas. But 4437 adds the words ''assists and directs'' to plug the gaps in the current law.
And I can understand persons who believe that it should not be a crime at all. But it still kind of begs the question, wouldn't it be better, if that is your view, to have it a misdemeanor than a felony? So that, though, is still a little hard to understand if that's the position.
But my good friend Mr. Reyes made the point that corruption doesn't recognize international boundaries, and that's what we've been hearing in the evidence here today, and that's true.
But we've heard the expression before that capital is a coward, that money for investment will flow into areas where it is least at risk, which is one of the reasons so much money has come to the United States from investment and continues, because even though there is some corruption here and we continue to need to pursue it and never should rest, but that it is safer here than it is in Mexico because there is more corruption there.
So I would submit to you that corruption is a coward. And we ought to encourage our neighbors to the south to be about the business of enforcing the law, and that needs to become with anbecome an exclamation point.
And I could not agree more with my friend Congressman Reyes who said we should not just hire 2,000 Border Patrol agents 1 year and 200 the next. That has got to be an ongoing continuing battle. We appropriated, I believe, more than $275 million, more than the Administration had asked for last year, which shows really the heart of where we are in the House of Representatives.
But I also think it's worth noting, when it comes to compassion and caring, the United States has traditionally voted for issues of compassion and human rights in the United Nations. And I haven't seen yet the new figures for 2005, but I saw the numbers for 2004 and was staggered to see that our neighbor to the south votes against the United States' position nearly three-fourths of the time. So it would be good to have a neighbor that was more on board with us in some of these areas.---snip--
59 down and only 38 million to go.
The vast majority of them are adult illegal immigrants, and many of those are violent criminals and gang members.
Vaya con Dios!
Just Obama staffing up his "civilian defense force funded at the same rate as the army"
Like these guys.....

And our community organiser in action
Possibly relatives who are as ignorant as the borrowers-but more likely loan sharks with tentacles/agents in the US-the cartels have agents in anything that makes money. Those people have nasty ways of collecting, too-as do the coyotes who do the actual trafficking-indentured servitude in fields and the like, being sold into a brothel, holding relatives for ransom, etc-until the “loan” is paid back.
As grim as all that is, they still don’t care enough for themselves or their kids to get a visa and do the thing legally-they get no sympathy from me...
Either that or Honduran banks are giving them loans they could never pay back otherwise. (Sucking up American money by way of remittances)
If that is the case, you can bet they have “collectors” in the US to try to minimize their losses-once most illegals get here, the first thing they do is get off the radar by going to ground and assuming a false identity-they aren’t going to pay the money back unless their feet are held to the fire-literally, in some cases...
