Members of a migrant caravan have reached Tijuana, Mexico, where they were preparing for a Sunday showdown with American immigration officials. The administration of President Donald Trump has described the group as a threat, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions called the caravan as "a deliberate attempt to undermine our laws and overwhelm our system."
Nearly 20 attorneys from the United States were in the border city dispensing advice to the migrants as a healthy slice of the nearly 400 people who ventured north through Mexico from Central America planned to ask for asylum Sunday, according to Pueblo Sin Fronteras' Gina Garibo, who has been helping to guide the caravan.

That’s exactly what it is. And they’ll probably get away with it.
Open borders = no country.
Absolutely correct.
And they're shouting "Si se puede!" with clenched fists, holding printed signs in Spanish. They surrounded FNC reporter William LaJeunesse and tried to drown him out.
Numerous migrants easily made it to the top of the old rusted border *fence*. Hispanic illegals are on the San Diego side, holding signs, foreign flags, etc. welcoming the migrants. They're also shouting "Si se puede!" with clenched fists.
No sign of the U.S. Border Patrol as of about 30 minutes ago.
This is infuriating! Makes me want to withhold paying all U.S. taxes until this situation is FIXED once and for all. Our hard-earned dollars will obviously be redistributed to these illegal aliens for millions more in "government assistance", etc.
GOP candidates for office in 2018 should use this video in all of their campaign ads. But they won't.
First tear gas then tasers.
Yup. Has the U.S. Border Patrol showed up yet? Last I heard they were nowhere in sight.
As I have mentioned before, any wall, barrier, fortification, or even a single strand of cotton string, is useless and a waste of everyone’s time and money if it doesn’t have men with guns guarding it who are authorized to use deadly force, and are unencumbered with a political rules-of-engagement handbook.
“No sign of the U.S. Border Patrol as of about 30 minutes ago.”
Why? The reporters are there. They’ve been told not to be there.
Yes the Border Patrol was there......stupid news people are as always Not at the top of their game.
Bombard with soap.
After having several thousand bars of soap dropped on them, they should get the point.
FNC reporter William LaJeunesse said the U.S. Border Patrol are there, but are "hanging back" behind the second border fence. This was as of about 45 minutes ago. FNC now running rerun of Fox News Sunday.
They’re hanging back because they aren’t going to give the news what they hope for......a scene! However they are breaking up now of course.....they made their point and now going off to prepare the next step of claiming Asylum....all saying it’s because of gang violence they’re asking.
I hope you're right. It will be interesting to see what happens because of this 'overwhelming of the system' invasion.
All I've heard from just about every news source is "anyone claiming asylum in the U.S. will pretty much be allowed to stay -- because of our broken immigration laws."
“I thought Trump was putting the military in the border”
Yeah I thought Trump was not going to allow this. This is serious. Maybe Trump will tweet or something.
