Yet another caravan of illegal aliens is currently making its way towards the southern border of the United States, hoping to cross the border before a possible victory by former President Donald Trump in the November election.
As Breitbart reports, the caravan consists of about 1,000 illegals, and started at Mexico’s southern border; it is currently en route to Mexico City, at which point it will disband and scatter as it makes its way to the border. It is the second major illegal caravan to start in Mexico since October 1st, following the inauguration of the new President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum.
The caravan formed on Sunday in Tapachula, Chiapas, and has been named the “God is Guiding Us” caravan by its members. The illegals come from multiple countries in Latin America, including Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Haiti, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela. In addition to Latin American illegals, illegals from Afghanistan and Nepal are also among the caravan.
The illegals in the caravan had already applied for access to the controversial CBP One app, a program by the Biden-Harris Administration that essentially hands out free legal status to anyone who applies. But the caravan members got impatient and decided to simply march to the border anyway.
One illegal from Colombia, whose name is Jonathan Rojas, said that the group fears a likely return to office by the 45th president, who has once again vowed to crack down on illegal immigration, build a border wall, and carry out the largest mass deportation operation in history.
“There is real concern that if he (Trump) gets elected, they will close the border,” said Rojas. “We can’t keep waiting for them to give us an appointment. Conditions here in Chiapas are not healthy, there are too many of us and not enough supplies and space. They (the Mexican government) need to help us.”
Although many illegals and advocates for mass migration have claimed that illegals primarily come to the United States to seek economic opportunities, the vast majority instead simply come to the U.S. to receive the many free, taxpayer-funded handouts that the current administration has given to all illegals; this includes healthcare, housing, and education, among other benefits.
