Migrant ‘caravan’ gathers on US-Mexico border for final push

MEXICALI, Mexico — About 175 people in a caravan of Central American asylum-seekers rested up Thursday ahead of the final leg of their monthlong journey to seek asylum in the United States, with the Trump administration warning they could be prosecuted, detained and quickly deported.

The migrants — many of them women, children and transsexuals — were set to board buses in the border city of Mexicali for a two-hour drive to Tijuana to join up with about 175 others who already arrived.

Lawyers planned free workshops on the U.S. immigration system on Friday and Saturday as many planned to seek asylum starting Sunday at San Diego’s San Ysidro border crossing, the nation’s busiest.

I assume an offical US force of some kind is there specifically for this since Trump is currently the president.

This is a planned foreign invasion. It must be stopped before they set foot on US soil.

IMHO people in Mexico who stroll up to the border in order to file an application for asylum should be directed to file that application with the country they are IN. (And people who sneak in should obviously be sent back.) IIRC there was an article yesterday that pointed out that once they file the application they are housed at OUR expense to the tune of just shy of $130 PER DAY. Our patience and resources are NOT infinite. Far past the time for this idiocy to end.

Of course, the illegals are communicating with the MSM on timing and tactics so that pictures, etc. can be gathered so as to show the gubmit in the most demeaning fashion.

And, the democrats will have voting registration forms ready.
No wait, they’re probably already distributing them in Mexico.

They must be prevented from setting foot in the USA.
Once here they will be processed into our court system and we will never get them out.

The border patrol/national guard run out of bullets, out of tear gas, out of tasers? We should use the same force to keep them out as would be used to keep out any other national enemy.

The problem I see is are there adequate detention centers to house the illegal lawbreakers while expedited trials are in process.

Democrats and RINOs have both worked hard to make sure they have everything properly set up and
they are ready to process this latest influx of illegals when they finally make it across the US border.

Honestly, it’s not that many people. I would just have some buses ready. Load them up and drive them back down to the south of Mexico. If they can freely cross over, then surely the U.S. can freely drive them back and drop them off.
