I’m traveling with a caravan of about 1,200 mostly Central American migrants traveling through Mexico. The group is being organized by Pueblos Sin Fronteras. It’s shaping up to be the largest one they’ve ever had. Here’s a clip from yesterday.pic.twitter.com/9hQt6fb3Wv

The majority of the migrants are from Honduras. Organizers of the caravan believe they make up about 70% of the group. They’re followed by migrants from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua.

Everyone is part of a group of about 10 people and five groups are put together to make a sector. Each with their own leaders and name like “Fuerza Unida,” “Unión Para La Familia,” and “Los Tigeres.”

I’ve met several people who are fleeing domestic abuse or other violence and hope to get asylum in the US. This woman is fleeing a husband with ties to gangs who threatened to have her killed after reporting him for domestic violence.pic.twitter.com/Mvgh5zTEyT

The train arrived at our stop but it’s not the one the caravan is taking. They hope tomorrow they’ll be able to board.pic.twitter.com/sxtDm7T1Mq

We have a legal process for those seeking asylum. Regardless of the politically motivated immigration issues here in the US, we are a Nation of Laws and we have a President who is enforcing them. Get in line.

We're full! If they needed asylum, they should have gone to the nearest country to seek aid. It's over here, Obama spent all the money we had and could borrow! We don't want to be like the countries they're fleeing from!

Not even an open immigration supporter like me can support this crap. Pueblos sin fronteras is an outright socialist movement. Their manifesto outright declares that.
