With the midterm election just days away, the progressive media hasn’t been very interested on keeping tabs on the caravan of illegal aliens making their way to our southern border. Weird huh? But the migrant mob is definitely still on the move.
Last Friday, Mexico’s president actually tried to entice them into staying in his country. Calling his plan “Estas en Tu Casa,” Spanish for “This is Your Home,” President Enrique Peña Nieto outlined the terms ~
For migrants who agree to the plan, they would receive medical care, some limited housing, and temporary identification and work permits. But, they would have to agree to stay in the southern regions of Mexico and abandon their plan to arrive at the U.S. border. […]
“This plan is only for those who comply with Mexican laws,” he explained, “and it’s a first step towards a permanent solution for those who are granted refugee status in Mexico.”
Unfortunately, there weren’t many takers. Following the law is a little problematic? Here’s an update as of yesterday, from the Gateway Pundit ~
Over 100 Mexican federal officers had temporarily halted the caravan to let them know of the offer, but allowed the swarm of roughly 7,000 people to continue heading to the US on Saturday when they declined.
The caravan is currently halted approximately 1,000 miles from the US border, however, as they search for a missing child that they believe may have been kidnapped.

Historically, Democrats supported strong borders because they knew American workers could never compete with illegal immigrants. Now, they regularly support “open borders.” So why the drastic change? Tucker Carlson, host of Tucker Carlson Tonight, explains.
The mainstreams aren’t reporting on the migrant caravan because polls show most Americans don’t want them admitted. In fact, the majority of Americans want stronger border security. But now we know why Democrats don’t.
Pay no attention to that mob headed toward the border…

Congressional Democrats are apparently fine with catch-and-release policies because they see the likely electoral benefits. According to Customs and Border Protection (CPB), of the 94,285 Central American family units apprehended last year, 99 percent of them remain in the country today. CPB also reports that 98 percent of the 31,754 unaccompanied minors from the Northern Triangle of Central America remain in the country.
It was Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) who backed the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act that prevents the speedy return of unaccompanied minors from non-contiguous countries. The Clinton-era Flores Settlement Agreement further hinders the government’s ability to detain and remove alien family units.
No country can maintain its character and purpose if it has what amounts to open borders. A common language is lost, there are fewer incentives to assimilate and immigrants can bring with them their own agendas and objectives. The hyphenating of various ethnic groups is proof enough that they seem to be less willing to be called simply Americans.
