Mexico Relations Hit New Boiling Point

Mexico’s government is denying it struck a deal with President Trump, creating more tensions on the border. Fox News reports:

Mexico’s incoming government denied reports Saturday that it had struck a deal with the White House to keep asylum-seekers in the country while their claims move through U.S. immigration courts, just hours after President Trump again threatened to close the entire southern border if no deal could be reached between the two counties.

The development comes as Fox News has confirmed through an organizer for Pueblo Sin Fronteras, the group helping organize the leading Central American migrant caravan, that members of the caravan are expected to march peacefully to the point of entry at San Ysidro, Calif., beginning on Sunday at 12 p.m. ET.

The marchers are expected to head out from the stadium, where many have been staying, and attempt to cross the border in a major test for both U.S. border authorities and Mexican officials. On Saturday, the first episode of caravan-related violence directed at U.S. authorities was reported by U.S. Border Patrol in Arizona, as a 31-year-old Honduran man who apparently split off from the caravan threw rocks at agents and a helicopter after setting a tree on fire.

The prospective deal between the U.S. and Mexico was seen as a way to dissuade thousands of Central American migrants from seeking asylum in the U.S., a process that can take years. The legal bar for claiming asylum is high and generally requires applicants to show a specific risk of persecution based on factors such as race, nationality, politics or religion.

President Trump is willing to play hardball and shut down the entire Mexican border. It’s about time that America stands up for itself.

So make sure the military and our people at that border can shoot these invaders and then make sure the dinero stops going to south america. And I find it interesting that Mexico does not want these invaders either. But this incoming president sounds like a FLAKE! Trust him in the future? I certainly would NOT!

What I find interesting is that Mexico has aided these invaders all the way across their country. Trump should close the Border until Mexico ships these invaders back to their own countries!

SHUT DOWN THE BORDER, and dig deep into this Pueblo Sin Fronteras, and see how many people of wealth in the USA are financing this ,as in soros steyer clinton obama dnc and others, like pelosi and feinstien. I,am sure they have a hand in it. mexico is only the friend to the USA ,if the USA has money in their hands, so STOP PAYMENT of foreign aid to all of latin america , 100 and 50% . And this new el presidenta del mexico, is a puppet for the drug cartels . He sold out mexico and his soul for his position. An if they fire a shot at any USA person, Then it is WAR ,

Do whatever it takes to stop this advancing horde,if we don’t there will be others. These people maybe be poor but that doesn’t mean they should be allowed in,we have enough poor of our own. Look at California now because they have allowed so many illegals,it’s a total shame to see the roadside littered with tents and trash. All this money could have been spent to better their lives in their own country. They cannot be allowed in,send them back. The pushers of this type of thing should be picked up and sent to prison for exploiting these people to do this. Let our border patrol and the military do what it takes just keep them out.

Defiant, unruly criminals attempting to smash through our borders. What animals. Who would want them? They are criminals, vicious assailants, whose malicious destruction of property, destruction of health, welfare, and safety qualifies them for harsh retaliation and treatment by border authorities. They need to add a fire hose to wash them back, and maybe build a moat filled with alligators.

Since when do we let people into the country with vetting them. The people of the caravan are waving their own country’s flags while most of them are burning our USA flags and showing complete disrespect for America’s rule of law. They must be stopped at any cost and if any politician tries to stop Trump while he is protecting the USA from this invasion, that politician has to be impeached and imprisoned for treason. Hail to our great President Trump and his Administration for doing what is needed to protect the USA. Sincerely, Martin Korab

Close the border and do not let them in. Who ever put up funds to get them into Mexico, can put up funds to return them to their home country. Makes no difference if a deal between USA and Mexico never comes about. Just do not let them in. If they have case for refugee status, go to embassy or consulate building and apply. Check with their home country to see if OAS has assistance funds, to help them apply. But no one should come to USA, unless they have proper paperwork, showing application, and approval from USA to come. And then be self sufficient, work, pay own way. We don’t need more spenders. We need workers who will pay taxes, and pay their own debts. Live in houses, one family to each house. Do not plan on doubling up 2,3,4 families in one family homes, as done in past. That destroys those houses, and they are sold to tippers at very reduced prices, destroying USA neighborhoods. Overloads our schools, shops, and highways.

Keep the border closed, Mexico has backed out of the deal made with Trump, so if the border is closed permanently Mexico will have to decide what to do with the invading horde, assimilate them or deport them

This is not a group of peaceful immigrants… they ARE an invading horde of illegals and if they can force their way into our Republic (un-vetted), millions upon millions will follows.

Unfortunately if we allow them in thousands more will follow and with the new Calif. Governor anything goes including free health care for all. Mexico relies on tourism from the USA, shut that down (air travel) and problem solved.

If the US relents and lets them in it will simply open the floodgates for more unlawful migration from countries even further south. Letting in low skilled financially insecure hoards threaten US economic and physical resources since these people are takers more so than producers and would be dependent on government to fund their lifestyles which is a hallmark of the Democrat’s plan to perpetuate their party.
