2. Did our POTUS threaten to shut down the "$1.6 billion daily trading relationship with Mexico" along with the border. [Did he actually say that, as was reported by this source?]
3. Not in this story, but... The Tijuana officials held a huge job fair for the Central Americans yesterday. There were only a few acceptances for the job openings. So sad.
“I want to see the United States”. So? Apply for a tourist visa...and don’t overstay because you’ll be arrested. Who really cares what he wants? Is the United States supposed to be the answer for these parasites? Stay out.
Let the rich Latinis house them is their houses and support them - back in their home.
There should be a bounty on all illegals in this country. Turn one in and collect your cash reward. I’ll do it free.
I’ve been waiting for 3 weeks to find out what happened to the invaders who were within a couple days of McAllen, TX. It’s crickets on them. Guaranteed they got in and are eating leftover tamales today while awaiting their US government freebies.
OK... Now that you've seen it (across the border) get your disease-infested, welfare-seeking ass back to where you belong!
Carlos Lopez wants to ‘see the United States’
Y’ all send him some postcards.
Dear Carlos, “The USA does not want to see you and yours.” “Go Home.”
Mi casa is NO your casa.
Just like there is for iguanas- $6 per pound in the Southeast.
Total crap.
Today is a good day to present ourselves,... Lopez said. Its Thanksgiving Day. In the US - vacation day.
Ask the British if the US military stands down on holidays.
IDK, but I’ve been looking and found a few titles of news articles. Once they fortified the border with wire & the news media raged-on who really knows.
Someone on this board reported that Catholic Charities El Paso was looking for volunteers to help with the ‘newcomers.’ I posted an article last week about it. I think the US refugee facilities are at full capacity from the last summer invasion and they are releasing them to make room for the new invaders.

Correction: Asking for EBT cards, housing vouchers, free health care, free education, voter registration cards, and legal immigration status for every relative back home.

Brings back memories of: See Naples and Die ... See America and Die, Dog.
Look man, they just want to com in a celebrate Thanksgiving ... Just a bunch of Peaceful Travelers waving their own knives ...
Reminds me of pigeons in plazas and parks. You toss a few morsels to a few pigeons, and some more pigeons appear. You toss some more morsels to the newcomers. Next thing you know, there are hundreds and they're chasing you around and pecking at you and leaving crap everywhere. Then you realize they're flying rats and worthless and why the heck did you encourage them to come anyway!
A few hundred, then 6,219, then millions come. Stop it now!
“There should be a bounty on all illegals in this country. Turn one in and collect your cash reward. Ill do it free.”
Just a couple questions.
Do they have to be alive when we turn them in?
Where are the check-in stations? :p)
Who speaks that way? .... been walking a month and a weeK?
Can’t he add or count. Instead of I’ve been walking for 35 days or 5 weeks....
Lopez probably hitch-hiked for a month and walked about a week which would explain his awkward syntax. But it is a Big Deal to travel on foot, cross-continent, just like Forrest Gump.
Carlos deserves a T-shirt for his efforts.
“I walked all the way to Tijuana and all I got was this Lousy tee-shirt from U.S. BP!”
Whose feeding his pregnant wife and 6 kids in Honduras while he marches about waving a white flag? Just who has been keeping the little womens safe while 10,000 menfolk split indefinitely?
If it is so violent and dangerous in C. A., why march off and abandon those whom are most vulnerable?
This abandoning the family to earn a living has grossly eroded the once traditional Spanish- Mexican family unit. For over fifty years, villages in Mexico have been deserted of fathers. In their absence, the families have deteriorated greatly and the sons have gone rogue. It certainly is a huge contributing factor to the growing immorality and lawlessness conquering Mexico. (end rant)
shut down the border, and the $1.6 billion daily trading relationship with Mexico...
I suggested that two weeks ago...
