400 in one day is a big increase for El Paso - more like what we see in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas, that now gets the heaviest flow.

It could be elements of the caravans spreading out to other areas of the border - maybe the City of Tijuana, the Mexican Federal Government, or caravan operators got them some bus tickets from Tijuana. Numbers have reportedly dropped quite a bit for the caravan in Tijuana over the weekend (by thousands), as they moved their camp. It is a lot more likely that they would go to El Paso to cross over, than they would be to go back home.

If we just build a little new border barrier, it will make little difference to the big picture, as flows can easily shift.

We need a few hundred miles to button up all the urban areas along the border, and a hundred miles in the Rio Grande Valley, to really change the nature of the situation.

These are ILLEGAL ALIENS not MIGRANTS.

Once they get in, they’re in.
