U.S. authorities closed an international border bridge in El Paso, Texas, early Monday in response to Central American and Cuban migrants protesting on the Mexican side of the border.

The protesters in Ciudad Juárez were chanting "vamos a cruzar" — "we are going to cross" — before Customs and Border Protection officials closed the bridge about 2 a.m., reported CNN.

Out of control. Close the borders until we can fix the broken immigration laws.

Are you volunteering to drive the buses from Mexico to Cuba for the Cubans?

Wait. They can close the border? But we’ve been assured such is impossible. What’s changed?

I realize that some are from other areas of the world (Congo as well). Majority are from Mexico and the Central American countries. Bus these invaders back and take the others to Mexico - that’s where they were allowed to come into America from. Let them get back to their countries of origin the same way they got away from them.

Not to mention the Bush League Republicans like Flimsey Garahamnesty that want to give amnesty to illegal aliens.

That’s right.
Shove them all back to Mexico. That’s the country they are using to stage their invasion. Mexico needs to deal with them.

President Trump, for the love of Pete, close down the border. Do it today. Do it now.

Is the Mexican government keeping its promise to help? Are illegal border crossings down as a result? Since Mexico capitulated in the face of Trump’s tariff threat, there seems to be a complete media blackout as to these obvious and critical questions.

Set a Quad 50 on our side of the bridge. Ask the ChiComm’s how effective they are at stopping human wave attacks.

Yes, detentions of border breakers are down almost 50% in the last month. Mexico is acting.

“...The Rats have, literally 10s of millions...American citizens supporting them in this...”

Thanks to the anti-American indoctrination taking place within the U.S. govt run school system K - 12 since the 1960’s.

Unless this changes, the U.S. as it was founded is done once President Trump leaves office.

50% is a huge improvement. No wonder it is not being reported.

Cubans don’t leave Cuba unless Castro wants them too.

The Cubans are not “ migrants”, they are enemy infiltrators

Shoot the invaders. Keep shooting. They are a clear and present danger. Who knows what terrorists lurk among them, and how many useless grasping mouths do we need to burden ourselves with?
