Returned Honduran migrants are directing anger against their president this week after their U.S.-bound caravan was blocked by the region’s security forces, accusing him of making their county unlivable while thwarting their escape to a better life. Honduras is reeling from two back-to-back hurricanes that devastated Central America in November, as well as an historic economic contraction on the back of coronavirus pandemic.

President Juan Orlando Hernandez has also been under fire from U.S. prosecutors that have accused him of having ties to drug cartels, an allegation he has strongly denied.

An estimated 8,000 Hondurans sought to flee this week in a mass caravan hoping to reach the United States. But after regional governments, including Honduras, organized a coordinated military operation to repel the caravan, returned migrants are directing their frustration at their government.

Has pedo joe re-assigned those 25,000 guards to head south and protect those poor innocent seekers of a better life?

I actually do wonder if he will order Marines to escort them here.

A mass of illegals hitting the border and romping around free in the US while we have a “pandemic” will look very bad. So, I’d guess that the US is twisting arms quietly behind the scene to make sure that doesn’t happen.

Let’s allow all of them to come live in a state nobody is using like Connecticut, and Americans can have all of Honduras

No doubt they’ll be required to prove they’ve been vaccinated before they’re “allowed” to come in. LOL! Sure they will..............

Now their anger is properly directed. Fix your own country!
Demand rights from your own government.

Seems mirrors are in short supply. Otherwise those grifters could see who is responsible for their own country.

Your optimism is admirable. But Biden wants them here now. AMLO has his own problems and ironically is our border wall for the moment. Mexico cant afford these free loading invaders.

It is interesting how the intelligence community and the deep state stopped Central Americans under Biden, but allowed them to reach the border when Trump was President.

Just like it is interesting how Amazon stepped forward to help with Covid-19 under Biden and not Trump.

Similarly, It is interesting to see how under Biden reopening schools is not a national priority, but under Trump it was reckless endangerment of teachers.

Ah, yes, it is a brave new world.

It will be interesting to see how Iran, China, North Korea, Global Warming, Endangered Species, the Pandemic, homelessness, unemployment, etc. all seem to disappear under the new Democratic Party Controlled Presidency, House, and Senate. Well maybe not disappear but stop being talked about by the MSM and so no longer an issue to the sheeple.
