MEXICO CITY (AP) — Thousands of Central American migrants decided to depart Mexico City early Friday and head toward the northern city of Tijuana, opting for the longer but likely safer route to the U.S. border, caravan organizers said. The decision was made late Thursday in a Mexico City stadium where roughly 5,000 migrants have spent the past few days resting...

Caravan coordinator Milton Benitez told the migrants that they were still waiting for a response. But he later said to The Associated Press the officials had offered them buses for women and children but organizers demanded that they be for everyone. U.N. representatives could not be immediately reached to confirm this.

The migrants hoped that buses would arrive for them Friday morning but decided to leave Mexico City even if they didn’t...

I agree but our troops need to stay there permanently. I would love to see a new base put up right in that area.

Are you allowed to buy a bus ticket in Mexico without Mexican citizenship or a valid passport & visa?

Bomb the Bridge where it won’t collapse. If you collapse it and they are injured, we look like the bad guys.

People have been breaking into our country for decades and the fools in Congress and the Presidency fall for the pity party crap they put out and allow them to become citizens.

It’s called amnesty. We need to write a law that forbids exceptions to the rule. Reagan fell for the BS years ago and McCain and Paul Ryan within the last year...

Make a law - no one can make exceptions... NO AMNESTY EVER.

No, she doesn’t give a damn... and it’s not in her interest to have honest open elections. So she’ll pretend it’s not possible and the thugs in the press who count on liberals for ‘leaks’ will put on their blinders.

We shouldn’t be making it easy and bussing them back to their country of origin.
