Migrant Caravan Demands Mexico Provide Them Transportation

Want “safe and dignified” transportation north for the thousands of migrants.

FTA:
the Mexican government has given no indication that it plans to comply with the group’s demands for “safe and dignified” transportation to the capital, though the government’s migrant protection agency did provide some rides to some of the “stragglers” to the next city over the weekend.

The new demands come amid troubling reports about violence carried out by members of the caravan and the Mexican government’s increasingly aggressive response to the groups.

President Trump is correct. The author of the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment would agree with him.

The citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment was written specifically to grant U.S. citizenship to ex-slaves and their children who live on American soil. It was written for no one else. The Native Americans were not even granted U.S. citizenship under this amendment.

Below is what Senator Jacob Howard, the author of the citizenship clause had to say about it:

(This is taken from a ‘National Review’ article dated August 19, 2015.)

“Indeed, during debate over the amendment, Senator Jacob Howard, the author of the citizenship clause, attempted to assure skeptical colleagues that the language was not intended to make Indians citizens of the United States. Indians, Howard conceded, were born within the nation’s geographical limits, but he steadfastly maintained that they were not subject to its jurisdiction because they owed allegiance to their tribes and not to the U.S. Senator Lyman Trumbull, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, supported this view, arguing that “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” meant “not owing allegiance to anybody else and being subject to the complete jurisdiction of the United States.”

Jurisdiction understood as allegiance, Senator Howard explained, excludes not only Indians but “persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers.”* Thus, “subject to the jurisdiction” does not simply mean, as is commonly thought today, subject to American laws or courts. It means owing exclusive political allegiance to the U.S.”

Mexican government has

Don't we have anything to hold over Mexico's head? Surely President Trump is doing some backchannel negotiating, right? All Mexico is doing is trying to get those damn illegals OUT of Mexico. And we're supposed to welcome them with open arms??
