FULL TITLE: Caravan's plea for buses is DENIED: Migrants must walk the remaining 900 miles to nearest US border as Mexico ignores demand for transport

Exhausted men, women and children traveling in the largest of the four caravans headed to the US resumed their journey on foot before dawn Thursday after Mexican authorities refused to provide them with buses.

The migrants planned to take advantage of cool overnight and morning temperatures by hitting the road at 3am in Juchitan for a trek to the town of Matias Romero en route to the Gulf coast city of Veracruz, which is a common transit route toward the nearest Mexico-US border crossing in McAllen, Texas.

Organizers previously said their destination was Santa Maria Jalape del Marques in Oaxaca state, but they have decided to change the planned route.

The migrants will have to walk nearly 40 miles from Juchitan to Matias Romero, and from there it's another 445 miles to Veracruz.

The participants of the 4,000-strong caravan have not said what route they intend to take northward or where on the US border they planned to reach, and Juchitan, still about 900 miles from US soil, was something of a crossroads.

Choosing Jalapa del Marques as the next stop appeared to indicate they are opting to travel via Oaxaca state's eponymous capital instead of turning north toward the Gulf coast state of Veracruz, which is a common transit route toward McAllen, Texas.

On Wednesday evening it became clear that Mexican officials were not acceding to the caravan's demand that dozens of buses be provided to whisk the migrants to Mexico City.

'The attempt to travel by bus failed,' caravan coordinator Walter Cuello acknowledged.

Sorry, no sympathy. They’ve been offered “asylum” by Mexico, including some free stuff. They don’t want that. They are invading us for our (democrat) welfare policy. I’d be fine if the military guns down those that force there way in.

There is a high quality Mexican commercial being run featuring DJT saying Mexico will pay for the wall. Then it breaks to several blue collar Mexicans saying, "I am not paying for the wall.......I AM THE WALL." Meaning, they will not support Central Americans coming to Mexico and applying for asylum, taking jobs and (wait for it)...taking their women.

This same commercial was posted on Honduras' Channel 6 Facebook page with mixed results. Most comments supported the caravans, but the best comment was: "They will run smack into reality once they reach the Mexican-US border."

There is a great opportunity for a psyops campaign if fellow Spanish-speakers are so inclined. Private msg me.

Mexico knows that the US will close the border as these Caravans approach. They do not want that to happen. They have too much stake in maintaining business-as-usual.

Pay for the wall? Look at the wall they did have! That piece of crap. Was it freaking built in China? These goons tore it down in less than an hour. Who wants Mexico building our wall? Let’s build it ourselves!

This thing will evaporate on Nov 7. After Republicans hold on to the House and Senate, the illegal immigrants will know they have no chance. They'll go home before they get close to us.

Been saying the same thing about the leaflets for a few days now. Also, I have no problem with providing buses or any other mode of transportation for these people........as long as it’s one way in a southerly direction.

Did you think that comment through before you posted?

Put them on busses for travel by night.

At dawn they find themselves once again south of the Mexican border.
