The massive migrant caravan making its way through Mexico to the US border is the largest in more than a year — with an estimated 8,000 asylum seekers en route.

Migrant families — primarily from Cuba, Haiti and Honduras — set off for the United States on Sunday, walking more than nine miles from the Mexican southern border city Tapachula to get to Alvaro Obregón.

Their Christmas Eve dinner comprised sandwiches, a bottle of water and a banana handed out by a local church, and they spent Christmas night sleeping on cardboard or plastic under awnings and tents.

They are once again inching toward the US southern border, marking the largest migrant caravan approaching the US since June 2022.

But radical migrant rights activist Luis Garcia Villagran, who is accompanying the group, has warned that the caravan could grow to 15,000 people, carrying signs reading “Exodus from poverty,” by the time it reaches the border.

“We won’t stop — we’ll keep walking,’’ he vowed.

Migrant families — primarily from Cuba, Haiti and Honduras — set off for the United States on Sunday, walking more than nine miles from the Mexican southern border city Tapachula to get to Alvaro Obregón.

The influx of new migrants threatens to further strain the United States’ already overburdened Border Patrol.

As many as 10,000 migrants were arrested each day at the southwest border this month, US Customs and Border Patrol officials say.

The total number of migrant encounters in December has also already surpassed 200,000, and the Mexican government has said it has detected about 680,000 migrants moving through the country in the first 11 months of 2023.

Last week, the US Customs and Border Patrol halted railway operations at international crossings into Texas to try to curb the massive migration into the country.

“CBP is continuing to surge all available resources to safely process migrants in response to increased levels of migrant encounters at the southwest border, fueled by smugglers peddling disinformation to prey on vulnerable individuals,” the agency said in a statement at the time.

But Border Patrol agents say they have become overwhelmed by the surge in migrants, with the migrants outnumbering agents 200 to 1 at one Texas crossing.

The National Border Patrol Council said “agents are more than willing to sacrifice holidays to protect our fellow Americans, but what we are doing is not enforcing our laws; because of bad policy, our government is allowing cartels to control our border,” it said in a statement to NewsNation.

Federal officials are set to meet with their Mexican counterparts in Mexico City to stem the tide of migrants coming into the US.


We are being invaded yet Joe Biden encourages these daily attacks at our southern border.

Trump would never allow this and his plan to handle it after he is re-elected is very welcomed by the rank and file Americans who are disgusted with Bidens plan to ruin America.

The Mexican government has already said it is willing to help try to stop migrants from crossing its country, and White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said President Biden and Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador shared concerns about the “dramatic” increase, according to the BBC.



But López Obrador has said he is urging the Biden administration to ease up on its restrictive sanctions against the lefty governments of Cuba and Venezuela, where about 20% of the 617,865 migrants whom US agents encountered at the border between October and November were from.


He also said he wants to see the US dole out more money to struggling Latin American countries, which some migrants say they are fleeing in search of better economic opportunities.


Among those seeking to represent US interests in Mexico City on Wednesday are Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and White House homeland security adviser Liz Sherwood-Randall.

Nice. Give us more money or else we'll send more of our people your way.
 
Self declared sanctuary Cities with populations in the millions will each take 2 or 3 before complaining small Texas towns of a few hundred are not doing enough.
 
The entire state population of Iowa will be exceeded by the amount of people crossing the southern border this year. Dems will keep on demming though. Wokeness is their religion sadly.
 
More rapists, criminals, and drug runners on the way!
Can you point specifically to which ones they are? I'd like to hang up some flyers here in my Texas neighborhood.

Thank you.

More than you can imagine, but by all means welcome them with open arms.

Liberal trash never stop amazing me.
So because I'm not a generalizing moron, I'm somehow a liberal despite the fact I didn't vote for Biden or for hillary. You must be one of the smart ones.
 
Kamala is surely on this. Joe assigned it to her early on. Remember when Biden touted getting Mexico to pay for finishing the wall? Did he make that up?
