'Help us': migrant caravan sees Biden as only hope
France24 ^ | November 17, 2021

Posted on 11/17/2021 4:05:50 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Matías Romero (Mexico) (AFP) – Hungry and exhausted after three weeks walking across Mexico in a migrant caravan, Elsa Pineda implored US President Joe Biden to give her daughter a chance to escape the dangers of Honduras' gangs.

"He has to help those of us who really need it," she said after a night on a concrete floor near the side of a road with hundreds of other migrants.

Despite the perils of walking along busy highways through violence-plagued Mexico, sleeping outdoors at night, Honduras in comparison is "a thousand times" more dangerous, said Pineda, 35.

"Although we've faced hunger, rain and cold, thanks to God we're still here," she said.

But Pineda worries about her 15-year-old son, who she fears was taken away by immigration agents the night before.

As well as giving her eight-year-old daughter a chance at a better life, she also hopes to earn money in the United States to send home to her eldest daughter, who has just given birth.

Struggling to keep up at the back of the caravan as organizers urged her to keep going, Erlinda Lopez made a plea to the US and Mexican presidents for help.

"We want to be free," she said.

Lopez, 31, fled Nicaragua with her 10-year-old daughter and 14-year-old son because of the "repression" that she said was rampant.

"All we want is to reach our destination (the United States) and raise our children," she said.

If a nation loses a large enough percentage of its citizenry to another nation, that other nation should simply be given full governmental control over the declining nation.

Watch how the leadership of these declining governments would secure their borders and not allow such an exodus of people.

Gee, I thought, from listening to the dems, that America is the true evil in the world. We are hateful, misogynists’, support discrimination and all the rest. Why would ANYONE want to come here? Maybe because the dems are LIARS and we really ARE the best place in the world? We are the world’s last best hope. Maybe there really is American Exceptionalism.

I say we grab any blm protesters and send them to Nicaragua. Let them take over the government down there and give them their own country.

Interesting observation: under a Dem president, these people say “Help us.” Under a Rep president, they say “You can’t stop us!”

If that’s not evidence that this is orchestrated, I don’t know what is.

You are so right. Anyone who believes in socialism we should send there. Tell them to be sure and let them know what they “disagree with”. AFTER they get out of jail they might want to return to America. (Unless it has become Nicaragua). Ha ha

“We want to be free,” she said.

__^__^______________

Yeah? Know how we got there?

Stay home and fight for it.

I have zero sympathy for these turds, I fart in their general direction. Work here and send money home is the only reason Mexico’s economy didn’t crash 30 years ago.

Walk back home now, we don’t want ya.

Oh yeah, I forgot, this is not a “migrant” caravan, it’s an illegal immigrant INVASION.

It should be dealt with in the same manner as any other invasion.

Totally support that. Kills two birds with one stone. They leave America and get jail in Nicaragua. Either way they are gone.

Nice post. The worst of that hand-wringing and demonization is coming from those claiming to speak for God: apocalypse pulpit wolves who conveniently refuse to discern between good and evil, between light and darkness, between actual America (Can-Do makers in the Spirit of the Founders) and Can't-Do takers and fakers.

America -- bad, bad, bad, the woman caught in adultery, in the very act! Blah blah. Meanwhile she's got a certain something that's not of this world...

She winks an eye, the bread slice turns to toast:

Little Richard -- The Girl Can't Help It

Chuck Berry -- Nadine

We are the world’s last best hope.

"She makes Grandpa feel like 21."

Translation: life from the dead... American Exceptionalism, because the girl can't help it.

God Bless America. That beautiful song was composed by the American man who was born named Israel.

And regarding

America the Beautiful:

Ward had initially composed the song's melody in 1882 to accompany lyrics to "Materna", basis of the hymn, "O Mother dear, Jerusalem"..

The sleezy, unworthy, projecting cads of this world (represented by illegitimate "POTUS" 46) have the attitude that if they can't have her no one can, that she's a worthless ho only deserving of villification, gang rape, disease and death.

And they sure have it out for the man who loves her for all her true worth. The more "permanent" damage that is revealed, the more his compassion and Can-Do Spirit multiplies.

In the line of the great nations that have walked the runway of world history, America won the beauty contest.

America was last made but first planned.

There's no competition.

How do I know this? Because when America approached the end of that runway, she's the one who lifted off into the skies.

*That's* Ingenuity. Not "heels up". WHEELS up!

Singing prophets. Buckaroos:

Buck Owens -- You, You, Only You

"Open up your heart."

How many might read my post and just "know" that it's full of error, the opposite of the many warnings from the prophets?

The prophets were the ones speaking *contrary* to the approved, party line army of know-it-all bobbleheads.

The prophets tried to warn.

There's always a reason. All the noise, shaming, and hate misdirects from *THE* Magnum Opus fashioned within and through America the Beautiful.

(That little project explains the massive disturbance in the force.)

Oscar. It was a movie.

You want it fast or you want it good?

You no rush Michelangelo. You no rush Leonardo:

Genesis 1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

The sum of that verse = 1776

/rant

Sooner or later, someone will suggest to Biden (who has no thoughts of his own at this point) that he should demonstrate American greatness by creating a Berlin-style humanitarian airlift to bring every one of these refugees from the Polish border to the American heartland.

/S shouldn’t be necessary here.

Wait-o uno minuto. Seniora Harris told everyone to “dont come...dont come”. Did they not get the memo? This shows once again that this presidential administration has no teeth and simply cannot deliver on its promises.
