"Maybe if they try crossing into NM on this news, they’ll be in for a surprise."

Also, the highest volume crossing point in New Mexico was the outskirts of El Paso. They just got twenty miles of rock solid bollard barrier set in deep concrete there, in the last six months.

Here you can compare the old Normandy barrier, and the new 18 foot bollards with anti-climb plate (from the American side).

“They get a lot of food and water help from sympathizers on this side.”

So the question to ask is: Why aren’t people destroying those caches of food and water. No food. No water. No alien invaders.

I agree... It would help. But because it is a national monument, access is limited, so finding it all would be complicated. Most searching would have to be done by foot and take a LOT of people. And most of it is closed down for the winter. The trespassers are provided a map right to these caches which are constantly moving around.

They do have volunteers who go clean up “trash” because they drop so much coming in, I’m sure some caches are found and removed at the same time. But then these volunteers might also be the ones planting the caches while they are there to get trash.

” No food. No water. No alien invaders.”

Yep,but I heard on NPR today they were provided free cell phone charging areas in Mexico City.

“Impoverished” refugees-——with cellphones.

Boggles the mind,

I never realized that "0bamaphones" were given out to people in Honduras.

The caravan has broken into groups, so they could be supported (not many places where three thousand people can just pop in for lunch). Five camps were set up in Mexico City (CDMX), and the caravan folks were shepherded to them on public transportation. They will get a few days break there to rest up with three meals a day, showers, laundry, and yes, cell phone charging stations.

Other groups of the caravan went up along the Gulf Coast into the State of Veraruz.

Here is a short two minute video from the (relatively) Conservative Mexican newspaper, La Reforma: https://youtu.be/5weiu6_yGSc
