Migrants on Mexican-US border celebrate Biden win

Tijuana (AFP) - Flag-waving migrants on the Mexican-US border on Saturday welcomed Joe Biden's presidential election win and voiced hope that Donald Trump's defeat would bring greater respect for human rights.

"We're celebrating the victory of Biden and the departure of Donald Trump," said pastor Gustavo Banda, who heads a migrant shelter in Tijuana across the frontier from San Diego in California.

"We're hoping that this new presidency will truly respect human rights," he told AFP.

With Biden in the White House, Banda expressed optimism that "families (who enter the United States illegally) will no longer be separated and children will no longer be caged" in US immigration facilities.

"And that the migrants in our city achieve their hopes of a better life when they arrive in the United States," he added.

Surrounded by migrants from Haiti and Central America and US flags, Banda took up a symbolic position near the border crossing where thousands of US citizens or legal residents pass each day.

Start learning Spanish. Or cut to the chase and start learning Chinese.

Illegals are the biggest downside to Biden. They will pour in like ants to a picnic. Once here they will never leave, just wait for amnesty. I remember well the 1986 “Amnesty to End All Amnesties”. Now we will have rolling amnesties. First up will be a revision to DACA to add those that didn’t qualify before.
