The media remind me of my husband in a way.

He says “we don’t have any orange juice.”

I say “it is on the top shelf, on the right side behind the milk”

He says “I can’t find it”. Then I go, move the milk and hand it to him.

The media want things handed to them in just this way, and if they can’t see it, it isn’t there because they will not move the milk.

"“There is no evidence...”

It helps if you actually look for some."

And of course they won't look. When the MSM see the food, water and other support trucks on the ground they look the other way. If they submitted news of the well financed logistics involved in moving this many people all these miles...they would be out of a job. The truth does not fit the images of poor, poor peasants desperately searching for refuge. They have clean clothes, they are well fed & watered and packin' lots of cellphones.

Some anti-American forces are financing and directing this invading mob. Find out who they are and strike them down. Take away the logistics, the financing and direction and the mob disappears.

This mob event will be a VERY REAL test for our intelligence agencies - we’d best get a full and complete handle on who the organizers are and the source of their money Right Damn Now!

The mob means to invade America, and THAT CANNOT BE ALLOWED!

GET TO IT, INTEL WEENIES! WE DEMAND TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS “EVENT!”

MSM News and AP and NYT all agree their “fact checks” show no outside funding for the innocent, freedom seeking family gathering caravan yearning to be free in America. What tripe.

Here’s a fact check for them: the Leftist Biased News Media People are commies who want to replace the American Way of Life with a global handout system paid for by working taxpayers and investors here (”givers”) and distributed all over the world to the “takers.”

> So how are these people eating? A vacation costs a bunch in food alone, and these people are walking*.

Estimates are its costing MILLIONS to transport them and feed them and organize them. You didn’t actually think they were walking, did you?

I don’t have to read it. It’s probably four Pinocchios for five “fact-checked” myths.

Yup, it is not a “caravan,” it’s an INVASION.

Ulike the daily border-jumping ILLEGALS, America is now being subjected to a mass INVASION.

NBC has no proof this mob is only being led by Hondurans.

No proof.

So who is paying the transportation costs?

I've been asking that, too. I hope someone is digging into it. Certainly not the Enemedia people.

"So who is paying the transportation costs? 7,000 people walking 1,800 miles at 25 miles a day. Don’t make me laugh. Of course they are being bussed."

From what I've seen even busing them is impossible. You are talking about over one hundred buses to move that many people. Where are all these buses? Who is fueling them, driving them, where did they come from?

Bottom line, there is no way to move 7,000 people 1,500 miles in such a short time without massive support.

The only way this many people end up at our border in the next few weeks is if it's NOT the same people we are seeing and they are at the border already.

Your response is PROOF that they aren’t fleeing for asylum, but rather, for as many gimme-dats as they can get, Still debunked.

18 Oct: Sky News UK: Pay $40k and risk brutal murder: Getting into US illegally
By Stuart Ramsay, chief correspondent, and Tom Acres, news reporter
Sky News has been granted exclusive access to one such operation, which sees cartels use their expertise in transporting illegal drugs across the border to achieve the same results with people...
Traditionally, those seeking to cross the US-Mexico border are from South and Central America, but more and more are coming from as far afield as Pakistan, Afghanistan and even some African nations...

19 Oct: Sky News UK: ‘The town at the end of the universe’: Desperate migrants willing to risk everything in Tapachula
The Mexican town of Tapachula has become a hub for travelling migrants hoping to be smuggled into the US to start a new life.
By Stuart Ramsay, chief correspondent, in Tapachula
Thousands every year, millions over time, have passed through and even contributed to this strange place. The residents are extraordinarily understanding.
Nobody is judged. They are passing through. They are going to America.
The travellers, who can afford it, meet their cartel gang handlers here. They have paid to be smuggled north through Mexico to the border with the US...
They go legal in Mexico to travel illegally to the US...

This is a business worth millions - if not billions - and the gangs and cartels that facilitate the movement north use the same routes that they developed over years to move drugs...
One of the biggest groups attempting this journey come from Asia. Pakistanis, Indians, Bangladeshis and Afghans meet and eat in some of the now well known curry houses in the downtown district of Tapachula...
Africans hang out in hotels owned by “Papa Africa”. They are from Sudan, Ethiopia, Ghana and the Ivory Coast.
The cartel guides tell me they pay off all the criminal groups to get their cargo north...
I asked who those groups are...
“The federal police, local police, military, immigration, the cartels - the usual ones.”...

That’s what I’ve been saying in my earlier posts, or at least trying to say. The FACT is, there are many stable countries, especially Costa Rica, that are closer and SAFER than either Mexico or the U.S., but these pretenders do not migrate and declare asylum in ANY of those closer countries. Plus, shouldn’t it actually be only BORDERING countries that they can request asylum? They’re out of the terrible country they left, but they don’t claim asylum!!! It makes it OBVIOUS to anyone paying attention that asylum isn’t a TRUE objective!

Perfect description! When this happened to me with my kids (not my husband) I considered it willful, and a bit passive aggressive on their part, to try to show that they were superior to me. After a while, I got tired of moving the “milk” to show them the error of their ways, because they already knew they should look harder. I just let them have to choose something else other than orange juice. When I kept at it, they figured out that they should look harder, instead of drinking water or milk.
