This is the time of year that migrant groups always begin their northward trek. They wait for the summer heat to ease off and bam! they’re off and marching. They’ll keep coming until it gets REALLY cold in late Dec - Jan, then the flow will slow for six weeks or so then pick right back up until about May when the heat comes back. This occurs every single year. It has nothing to do with the American election season. MSM just doesn’t report much on it.

I hope they enjoy their stay in Mexico while they await their hearings. Most of them will return home. Few of them will make it across into the US.

The fact that the leftists might take over definitely has a bearing on this new influx. Remember, Biden has said he's for Americans paying for illegals' health care, decriminalizing illegal immigration, and stopping deportations. It's practically a welcome invite: "Come up here, break our laws, and we will force honest Americans to not only educate and feed your children, but we will provide health care for the entire family, and you'll never have to worry about being deported."

These Honduran invaders, masks or not, were all stopped by the Guatemalan army and sent back. These people will never learn that you just can't march into most other countries unimpeded.

One exception to that might be the U.S. where the bleeding heart liberals welcome them with open arms without ever considering the consequences.

I say welcome to the U.S.! Now please teach our leaders how to deal with the Covid crisis.
for fact-based consideration, they're 3 months behind us - cases didn't ramp up until mid-June.

When we welcome then, please give us your home address so we know where they're going.

There is nothing I could learn from scofflaws with an average 10th grade education.

How convenient. It's been almost two years since Trump and the radical-right talked up the last caravan that was going to "overrun American borders and destroy our country." Yet that fizzled out completely and nothing happened.

So what a surprise that Trump and many of his far-right extremist supporters nationwide are trying to play up another "deadly" caravan that's headed for our border to kill us all, and just 30 days before the election.

Surely this isn't some cheap strategy by conservative extremists to drum up fear among Trump's base. Surely.

So people who are opposed to illegal immigrants are "far-right extremist supporters"? And you still claim that liberals aren't in support of illegal immigration? What do you call it then when you castigate people who are opposed to caravans of illegals swamping our border as "far-right extremists?"

Translation:

Liberal: We are NOT is support of illegal immigration!
Conservative: Me, neither. I hate when I see a caravan of foreigners preparing to enter our country illegally.
Liberal: You far-right extremist, you! How dare you criticize them!!

I hope that is true. Our country does not need thousands of illegals flooding it- especially during a pandemic.

In the photo you posted there are at least 10 people wearing the mask ineffectively or not at all !!!

All it takes is one to infect the rest and now they can do it back where they came from !!!

Guatemala Sends Over 3,000 Honduran Migrants Home From Caravan
https://www.usnews.com/news/world/ar...thward-caravan

As many as 2,800 people crossed the border in the initial incident, according to Guatemala's government.

Since then and on Saturday, 3,586 migrants had "opted to return," the government said.

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who has taken steps to curb illegal immigration to avoid clashing with his U.S. counterpart, Donald Trump, has suggested that the caravan's departure from Honduras had been timed to coincide with the U.S. election.

Mexican migration authorities have warned that any migrants who were to knowingly put others at risk of infection could face jail.
