Univision anchor Jorge Ramos said on Monday that America has a responsibility to “easily absorb” the caravan migrants and claimed it can do so “without significant economic consequences.” “It’s not an invasion. The U.S. can easily absorb these refugees without significant economic consequences. Many countries in the world help the 65 M people who are displaced,” Ramos claimed in an Instagram post. “And the most powerful nation in history also has responsibilities. We simply have to do our share.” On Monday, San Diego Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott noted that “the vast majority of those, from what we call the...

Only one week ahead of the midterms, President Trump is working hard to turn a few thousand migrants who are on their way to the United States into an “invasion.” More than 5,000 active U.S. service members have been ordered to the border, as the president is spreading unsubstantiated claims that “unknown Middle Easterners” are in the caravan. There is no evidence for a looming invasion or a terrorism risk. But Trump’s game of making up a migrant invading force isn’t surprising to anyone who has watched populists gain power in Europe in recent years. In the case of Trump,...

Fox News anchor Shepard Smith on Monday repudiated claims by President Donald Trump and his own network of the risks posed by a so-called caravan of migrants making its way toward the U.S. border. "There is no invasion. No one’s coming to get you. There’s nothing at all to worry about. Tomorrow the migrants, according to Fox News reporting, are more than two months away - if any of them actually come here,” Smith said on the air Monday. Critics have blasted Trump for stoking anti-immigrant rhetoric and drumming up fear ahead of the upcoming midterm elections, and that message...

San Diego Sector Border Patrol agents rescued a Central American migrant woman who nearly fell to her death from the international border wall. She and her two children fell from the wall as she attempted to illegally enter the U.S. from Mexico and landed on a piece of rebar that pierced her buttocks. San Diego Sector agents patrolling east of the San Ysidro Port of Entry on November 23 responded to a call about a woman attempting to climb over the international boundary with two young children. The woman fell with her children and landed on a piece of steel...

Rodney Scott, the chief U.S. Border Patrol agent of San Diego, outlined the circumstances Monday morning that led to law enforcement utilizing tear gas at the United States-Mexican border. CNN host John Berman began the interview with Scott simply by asking, “explain the use of tear gas.” Scott responded by saying that the main responsibility of Border Patrol is ensuring that “the border is safe and secure.” The leading officer went on to challenge the notion that the migrants storming the border were part of a “peaceful protest” or that the “majority of these people were claiming asylum.” Scott then...

MSNBC’s Gadi Schwartz refutes the media narrative by reporting from the ground in Mexico that the majority of people in the migrant caravan are not women and children, but rather men who are not seeking asylum. Be sure to like, subscribe, and comment below to share your thoughts on the video.

Mexican authorities said Monday they have deported almost 100 Central American migrants after hundreds rushed the US border before being repelled by tear gas and rubber bullets. “Ninety-eight people were handed over to the national migration authorities and have been deported” after Sunday’s incident at Tijuana, on the border with California, the commissioner of the National Institute of Migration said on television

Tensions at the U.S.-Mexico border intensified on Sunday when the United States Customs and Border Protection agency shut down the San Diego border crossing and fired tear gas at migrants. As images of mothers and young children running from the painful gas spread on social media, celebrities and activists were quick to condemn the government’s response as “unconscionable.” “What have we become?” actress and activist Alyssa Milano asked on Twitter. Many celebrities have been vocal about their opposition to President Trump’s anti-immigrant agenda, and the incident on Sunday stoked their outrage. Actor John Cusack called for Trump to be impeached,...

We have an invading army on our southern border. They do not have guns, planes, ships and tanks. Still they want to take from us things that are not theirs. As of now we can not shoot them so we must find other ways to defeat them. It is important to define what makes up this invading army. To understand it better is to know how to defeat it. At their command level are murky NGO's that are providing financial, logistical and organizational support. They have a large propaganda force being the American media. They have support from the traitorous...

Mexico has pledged to improve its safety close to the US border immediately after 39 migrants were arrested out of hundreds of Central Us residents who “violently” tried to enter the US following a tranquil protest to charm for faster processing of asylum requests. US brokers fired tier fuel into the Tijuana river aqueduct to consider and end some of the migrants building the push. Roughly 500 migrants will straight away be deported soon after the attempted border crossing, in accordance to Mexico’s inside ministry, even though the additional than three-dozen arrested migrants ended up detained for disturbing the peace...

‘You tear-gassed woman and children, a**wipe!’ shrieked actress Alyssa Milano, one of the more fervent and relentless Trump-hating stars. ‘And on Thanksgiving weekend, you piece of sh*t, a**hole, mother*cking, evil-creature-person!’ Yet amid the outpouring responses one leaped out at me from Brandon Darby, a conservative blogger. ‘Hey,’ he tweeted Milano, ‘Barack Obama did the same thing at the same exact place in 2013. Did you call him names too?’

Late Sunday evening, hundreds of illegal aliens attempted to rush the United States-Mexico border, something they talked about a few days ago. What the caravan riders didn't expect, however, was the Border Patrol utilizing tear gas to keep them from successfully crossing into the United States. Roughly 500 caravan riders rushed past a barricade created by Mexican officials. They then went to rush the border, at which point the Border Patrol deployed tear gas to protect agents. Today, several migrants threw projectiles at the agents in San Diego. Border Patrol agents deployed tear gas to dispel the group because of the...

As Francinepink pointed out last night, it’s really not a good look to be storming another country’s border while carrying your own country’s flag. Some people might call that an invasion. Of course none of those people will be reporting for the MSM. They will continue to show only viral video of very small children caught up in the chaos and the tear gassing of the “brave” migrants who are just “seeking a better life.” Other members of society also “seeking a better life”It looks like President Trump agrees with Francine about the flags: So I note that Democrat Talking...

The U.S.-Mexico border at the San Ysidro Port of Entry was closed for more than five hours on Sunday after hundreds of migrants rushed the area, prompting federal authorities to launch tear gas in an apparent attempt to get the group to disperse. Federal authorities said the migrants tried to breach the border at multiple locations, leading to a number of assaults on Customs and BP personnel and dozens of arrests...[snip] The confrontations highlighted escalating tensions as thousands of migrants from Central America poured into Tijuana seeking U.S. asylum.

Solalinde accuses NGO of deceiving migrants; He says that he was deceived along with the Central American and Mexican migrants, the caravan brought polleros (human traffickers) and armed persons to the city. "Here the negative actor is the organization, Pueblo Sin Fronteras.", says Fr. Solalinde. There is no greater champion for Central American migrants; Alejandro Solalinde Guerra is a Mexican Catholic priest and human rights activist. He is the coordinator of the South Pacific Human Mobility Ministry of the Mexican Bishopric and director of "Hermanos en el Camino", a shelter that provides Central American migrants with humanitarian aid and education....

Yeah, this is from TJ today and yes, the shot in fact turned out to be a PEPPER BALL. But they didn't know that, and just LOOK at what happens to the crowd at the 1 min 5 second point: They're all cramming though a tiny fence gap AND THEN..!!!

Meanwhile, pictures from Univision (Spanish only) do expose who the caravan organizers are. The camera shots show that the organizers themselves are far-left activists, quite possibly what remain of the gang-like Chavista shock troops of Latin America who destroyed Venezuela. Smug, smarmy and robotic, they speak a disciplined Marxist party line devoid of individualism. They're obviously experienced community organizers, which gives you an approximate look at how Chavez destroyed Venezuela. It was guys like these who produced that. And given the caravan thugcraft already seen, look at them how at odds it all is with their peaceable and humanitarian claims....

Migrants with a caravan of between 7,000 to 10,000 Central Americans are frustrated with United States border enforcement, telling media crews that they are growing impatient as they wait in Mexico. In multiple reports, caravan migrants say they want quick and easy access to the U.S. Though the caravan migrants in Tijuana, Mexico are being offered jobs, many are refusing the work, saying they want to cross the border eventually and find jobs in the U.S. — an ineligible asylum claim. One of the caravan migrants told the New York Times of her disdain for U.S. border enforcement: “Once we...
