Mexican Government: Migrant Caravan was Previously Unimpeded Yearly Event
BREITBART ^ | 3 Apr 2018 | Ildefonso Ortiz and Brandon Darby

The Mexican government revealed that the caravan of more than 1,500 families from Central America making their way north is part of an annual event occurring over the past seven years without prior interference. Mexico City asserts it is not promoting the irregular migration and is considering how to detain some while granting asylum to others who qualify.

The revelation was made in a recent statement issued by Mexico’s Foreign Relations Ministry where it addressed the issue of jointly dealing with immigration and also discussed the caravan, which has drawn attention from the U.S. government. Mexican officials revealed that the caravan is a public event which tries to bring attention to Central American migrants who are forced to flee their homes to seek refuge at other points north. The caravan has been a yearly event since 2010 and since the migrants entered the country in an irregular fashion, they are subject to Mexican immigration enforcement. The statement makes no mention of any enforcement actions in the previous years and revealed that this year they are offering asylum to those who qualify.

Leftist activists exploiting peasants to score political points.

They are like any other human traffickers and do not care about them as people.

- Rahm Emanuel

I hope Team Trump is keeping the Ctrl-Left’s advice in mind. We need to use this invasion as a lever to mobilize Mexico’s government, our military, and other assets and permanently defend our borders until we can build the Wall. Then we need to deport every single illegal in our country. No exceptions.

So the government of Mexico has just admitted that for the past seven years they have been conducting demographic warfare against the United States.

Question is, what is our government going to do about it?

migrants who are forced to flee their homes

No, who CHOOSE to flee their homes. Their homes may be in a terrible situation, but I do not believe that anyone is forcing them to flee.
