“March of the Migrant” Caravan of Hondurans Marching to US Border DOUBLES IN SIZE… To 3,000 People!

Here we go again! Over the weekend, approximately 1,300 Hondurans were marching to Guatemala en route to Mexico so they could make their way up to the US border right in time for the November election.

On Monday, the migrant caravan, dubbed “March of the Migrant,” DOUBLED IN SIZE as it crossed through the Guatemalan border on its way to Mexico where they will head northbound to the United States.

According to Reuters, up to 3,000 migrants crossed from the Honduras into Guatemala after a standoff with police in riot gear Monday.

Via Reuters:

The crowd more than doubled in size from Saturday, when some 1,300 people set off from northern Honduras in what has been dubbed “March of the Migrant,” an organizer said. The migrants plan to seek refugee status in Mexico or pass through to the United States.

Reuters could not independently verify the number of participants, but images showed a group carrying backpacks and clogging roads near the border, some waving the Honduran flag.

Rows of Guatemalan police in black uniforms, some wearing helmets and shields, initially blocked migrants from reaching a customs booth, Reuters images showed. It was not clear how long the standoff lasted, but the group was ultimately able to cross, said march organizer Bartolo Fuentes, a former Honduran lawmaker.

A police official on site said all Central Americans could pass freely through the region as long as they complied with migration control.

“We’re going to drop in on Donald Trump. He has to take us in,” said Andrea Fernandez, 24, who left Honduras with a newborn baby, a 5-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son because she said she could not find work and feared for their safety.

Turmp must do something even if it violates some individual judge in HI or OR. If he doesn't the Congress will be in trouble come Nov 6 for the Pubbies.

The timing is just too suspect. This is designed to create a nasty optic in the last days up to the mid-terms. Trump needs to get on the horn with the Mexican President and let him know that if he lets those people cross Mexico that there will be consequences.

The reality is that 2/3 of the world’s population would come here if they could. Either you have enforced borders or you don’t have an American nation and culture. Or as they say in NJ, if the Democrats who are socialists and globalists come to power....Fagetabotit.

We’re just going to sit back and let it happen again?
I sure hope not. Their own countries need to step up and take care of their own people. They are not our responsibility.
The same thing happened last year, and quite a few of those Caravan illegals have gotten in and have been released ‘while they await their trials’. Yeah, right. Nobody expects these people to show up in any courtroom. Why should they? They got away with illegal entry.

Oh, my Lord. Please, dear Lord above, allow your people to stop the destruction of this country. Lord God, use Non-believers as tools to stop the destruction of this country. Your WORD has used both Believers and Non-believers before to save your People: Please, allow it to happen once more. In the name of Jesus, we ask this. Amen.

.... Since this is clearly a Soros et-al event ..... The President should have a Press Conference and notify all in the so called caravan that they should all seek asylum at the nearest United States Consulate to go through the proper channels .... Otherwise they will be held in detention at the border and family members may be separated from the rest of the family for an undetermined period of time to best facilitate the process.

Maybe they should work on "Make Honduras Great Again" rather than trying to make the USA lousy. Mexico can keep them, we don't want them here.

Just like last time. Probably at least double again in the next week

And no doubt the Government of Mexico will be providing trains and catering to hasten them out of their territory and into ours again.

And just last week, the Border Patrol in Arizona ‘had’ to let hundreds of Guatamalans keep on with their invasion because they didn’t have facilities to detain them.

This is crazy. How broken is the fed govt. when they can’t even protect our borders?

Trump should use the military on the border—This is the hill to die on. We already have 50 million illegals and their anchor baby demon spawn in the country. We’re nearing the point of no return. Texas or Floriduh turning blue.

To make it by election day, they’d have to put in at least 50 miles per day.
So I suppose Soros will have to hurry them along by providing rail or some other form of transport.

It would be easy enough to pay a drug cartel to "stop the caravan" by any means necessary.
