Oh, yeah, more outbreaks of diseases...wonder where they came from?

We need more TB in our country.

The US Marines were there in the 1920’s 1930’s. Didn’t make a bit of difference.

A real life enactment of “Camp of the Saints”.

What if they came, armed with their pitiful and pathetic existence? Jean Raspail is a prophet.

“Not gonna work.”

I know an older, conservative Republican couple...and, it does work. The audience who read the articles and see the pro-”caravan” coverage is a normal bell curve distribution. Some will be taken in and sympathetic, even changing their overall views to oh-let’s-just-take-in-this-one-stray-puppy. Others will view it and say “carpet-bomb-them” and the article’s readership will have all views between the extremes. Propaganda works for some percentage of the time and on some percentage of the audience. That’s just the way it is.

Beyond the President’s Tweets there appears to be no organized group trying to convince the general population that letting in an invading army is a bad idea. But there appears to be a huge, well funded organization behind the invasion and the propaganda in favor of it.

The Post makes them sound like war victims.

The media has truly lost its power...and mind.

If I wanted to put a swimming pool in my yard I have to put up a fence as the pool is an “attractive nuisance”. IMHO, chain migration and anchor babies are an attractive nuisance that has killed thousands of people and caused the suffering of millions. How can LACK OF A BORDER WALL NOT BE ILLEGAL? Especially if my pool needs a fence?

The solution to “bandaged feet” and “bleeding hands” is to stop right where they are, and apply to Mexico for asylum.

"In recent days, at least two women in the caravan have been rushed to hospitals to give birth. "

Ahhh, two new Mexican citizens......Oh wait, Mexico isn't stupid enough to give illegal immigrants citizenship. Too bad for the two women. It's a good thing they are 'subject to the jurisdiction' of their home country, and the babies will have citizenship there.

“Correct. After the thieves and murderers from the Central American Sh!tholes enter this country, they wreak havoc with the US citizens, taking a toll.”

Speaking of; it would be interesting to see an aerial scan of the trail of waste and crap the caravan has left behind as it has moved along. The Mexican government should make them start each day with cleaning up after themselves.

What upchuck causing drivel. I read all the way through this nauseating article just knowing this faux reporter, Michael E. Miller, would remind the readers that Mexico already offered legal asylum to the deserving in this group. They just needed to apply.

Nope! No such mention. Not even buried to way past the part where excessive yawning would cause the reader to drift off.

So, the Washington Post comes through again...fake news throughout.

And Mexico offered asylum - they rejected it.

What happens to the millions of dollars the US sends their home countries to help them?

I understand that Mexico has offered assistance, housing, jobs, and path to Mexican citizenship. All things they are not going to get here. Maybe they need to rethink their options?

There are LEGAL ways to come into the US if you are truly fleeing a country for your life.

Have any of these people even tried the legal route.? I doubt it.

And please, keep your TB, polio, small pox, et al out of the US.

Doesn’t matter how many military doctors there are, they shouldn’t be let in. Period.

All those blistered and bloody feet. Really? There’s not one picture in this article or the hundred other articles showing one boo boo on any foot. The feet pics all show nice clean healthy feet.

We don’t need no stinkin’ coughs or disease in the US. Their predecessors have brought in enough disease already.

Don’t let in anyone, much less pg women. We don’t need anymore anchor babies.
