For those who remain, their chances of legally entering the U.S. diminished this week after the Trump administration and Mexico’s government announced Thursday that immigrants seeking asylum in the U.S. will be forced to wait in Mexico while their cases are reviewed —a process that can often take well over a year.
So as authorities in both countries continue to debate policy with no long-term solution in sight, many migrants are hunkering down for months, or possibly years, in a purgatory of makeshift accommodations and spotty services.
Coello, who said he had organized committees of migrants along the entire caravan route, has focused on helping resolve the day-to-day issues that arise when hundreds of men, women and children are packed into close quarters with old pipes and little privacy or security. Toilets are clogged. Showers are inoperable. Belongings disappear from tents when people leave to hunt for work.
Anxiety and misinformation spread quickly here. Some residents say that government workers have pilfered donations and that certain people get priority access to the handouts. Others buzz about false reports that the United States is letting migrants in to work temporarily. Coello said it’s hard to keep people informed without reliable internet access or regular updates from officials.
What’s more, he said, the humanitarian arm of Mexico’s immigration services agency hasn’t distributed donations of clothes, shoes, tents and blankets because officials wanted to ensure that the items would go to those in need and not be resold. Going forward, he believes, the migrants must fend more for themselves.

Democrat tools.
The sooner they realize it, the sooner they can high-tail it back to their home countries.
I guess they’re really NOT the purported, ‘Best & Brightest’ if they’ve been fooled this long...
...which make the Democrats look even MORE disgusting for using HUMAN BEINGS in this way.
*SPIT*
Roberts Refugees! What a piece of crap.
Send them all to his house house.
I was especially “all torn up” by the sob story of the Honduran mother who didn’t realize she was three months with child until she had to get medical care in Mexico (HA!). She said that her ex-boyfriend (by whom she has a 10 yr. old daughter beat her and she couldn’t go back to her homeland. Looks like she stayed long enough with him to become impregnated, though. She’s looking to have that little anchor bastard in the US and get Uncle Sugar to solve ALL her woes. Sorry, no tears here!
Excellent movie and so was Young Guns.
Puerto Nuevo, lobster village?
We used to head down to Rosarito back in the early 90’s.
It was such a different place back then..drinking age was 18 so bunch of us would spend few days partying at the beach bars. Back then, it was mostly a surf crowd and the locals kept it safe because of the tourist dollars.
No way I’d go down there now..
I went with 3 others Two of them born in Mexico. Workdays lunch. Not many people. One of the guys would tell the barkers take me into the kitchen and show me which lobsters you’re serving us. Never had a bad meal.
Belongings disappear from tents when people leave to hunt for work.
Just the caliber of new prospective citizens the Marxists are looking for.
But if they had a wall around their stuff? Oh wait, they want no wall, no border, no property rights, and want to fight law and order. I forgot about that.
“...anchor bastard...” nails it exactly.
A few restaurants have tried to recreate the Puerto Nuevo experience, haven’t found one that does it quite as well.
Same with fish tacos..
There used to be a hole in wall place down in Baja called Just for the Halibut..there would always be line out the door.
To this day, best fish taco I’ve ever eaten.
The fish down there always tasted so good, probably because most caught same day.
thanx
I hear you. I’m beyond fed up with this bullsh!t. We’re not a bloody Motel 6 for the whole world.
