Over 150,000 Haitians have immigrated to the northern Mexican state of Baja California in the past eight months, with many hoping to reach the United States.
El Universal reported Monday that the equivalent of 1.5 percent of Haiti’s population had immigrated to the Mexican state. Haitians receive amnesty through Temporary Protected Status and thousands who have migrated to Mexico have hoped to take advantage of this benefit or receive asylum.
Jeh Johnson, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, announced recently that removals of Haitians to their home country will be resumed. They had been suspended following Hurricane Matthew’s October landfall in Haiti.
“Recently, we have seen an increase in the numbers of those apprehended on the southern border,” Johnson said. He added, “there are currently about 41,000 individuals in our immigration detention facilities, including over 4,400 Haitians. Typically, the number in immigration detention is about 31,000 to 34,000.”
Mexico has been facing an influx of African and Haitian immigrants in 2016. In the first seven months of the year, Mexico detained more migrants from Africa than they had in the past four years combined. In late October, Mexico’s Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong called the migration wave a “grave problem.”
Chong said that following the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, immigrants from the island surged into Mexico with hopes of getting asylum. “Now they have closed the border. They receive very little,” Chong added. Most of the Haitian migrants have come from Brazil where they went following the earthquake for refuge or worked in jobs related to the World Cup and Olympics.

LOL!
I guess they’ll blend right it, /S.
I’m sure 60 Minutes will do an expose any day now....
Mexico and Mexicans in the U.S. claim that they are very open about immigration and borders.
So they should be more then happy to host a few hundred thousand Haitians who don’t speak Spanish, don’t have a drop of Spaniard blood in them (they hate the Dominicans), come from a violent and chaotic culture, and engage in practices like Santeria.
Yessirre, time for Mexico to put up or shut up. Help them immigrunts stay in your country, Mexico!
Ah yes!
Migration the new code word!!!
Old bastard that I am, I recall the “migrations” by US Forces of WWII, e.g. Iwo Jima, Normandy, Japan, etc....
Stay focused!
Fixed it.
And they are ALL coming here, and bringing that weird voodoo shit with them.
I just searched on Kayak; Jan 9 2017 (to avoid holiday prices), one-way flight, Spirit Airlines, Port-au-Prince, Haiti to Atlanta Hartsfield airport, $208.
They are all coming here to be met at the border by their escorts for implantation in conservative communities for the purpose of eventually outvoting the locals and disrupting their communities.
That's what I'd like to know. It's very suspicious. Haiti is the poorest nation in the Western hemisphere; it's inhabitants can't afford air or cruise ship travel to Mexico. Normally all they can manage is makeshift rafts.
This mob had help getting there.
It’s all the money the Clinton foundation spread around Haiti. Everyone got a one-way ticket.
Very interesting thoughts. I hadn’t related this “migration” to the movement of Central American minors, but it makes some sense.
Gittin’ in before the wall goes up.
