A very large caravan of migrants recently departed from Honduras en route to the United States with the goal of claiming asylum and living off the largess of the American taxpayer.
According to reports, the Governor of the Mexican state of Coahuila provided about 50 private buses to transport the migrants to an unsecured area of the Texas border.
Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH) said the illegal alien migrants arrived at Piedras Negras, across from Eagle Pass, Texas late Monday night.

It’s time to build the border security wall.

Breitbart News reported that hundreds of Honduran migrants began arriving in Coahuila over the weekend and government officials provided them with temporary food and shelter.
Governor Miguel Riquelme oversaw operations at one of the camps. The official count from Sunday stood at 1,674 migrants.

At the request of the government in Coahuila, private companies provided 49 buses to transport the Hondurans ‘safely and efficiently’ to the US border.
The Pentagon sent an additional 4,000 US troops to the US-Mexico border last week to help assist border patrol.
President Trump said on Tuesday morning, “We will build a human wall if necessary. If we had a real wall, this would be a non-event!”
Tremendous numbers of people are coming up through Mexico in the hopes of flooding our Southern Border. We have sent additional military. We will build a Human Wall if necessary. If we had a real Wall, this would be a non-event!
