They are running away from Honduras but wave around the Honduran flag.
they are ready to integrate into a multicultural society
LOL
It may sound like I’m supporting the caravan, which I don’t. But from what I’ve heard, they wave their flag showing that they escaped the country and its dangers.idk
Klance and Adashi thanks for clarifying that because I couldn't understand it either why rhey were carrying the Honduran flag, now makes sense LOL!
@@puchixa3357 I see your point but when Syrian refuges got to Europe they weren't waving their flag.
They're risking THEIR lives? REALLY!?!? Our lives will be at risk if and when they arrive. They should asked whoever is funding insanity for help not the US.
Quite sad.... But I think USA is losing capability to help more people. There are more hungry and homeless US citizens than the entire population of some smaller countries....
Ray Mak
Yes absolutely I agree with you, I'm sorry for these people, I really am, but you're 100% right we have to take care of home first
Definitely true. I see so many homeless in my States... I hate this is happening but way too many
I agree my heart breaks for them, I’m sympathetic to their situation but if we can’t help our homeless here and our veterans internally we need to fix that before we can extend charity. The tragedy is these corrupt governments and the drug trafficking/violence are doing this to their own citizens , that’s what is sad.
That a lie and you know it
We don't need additional problems in our country.
7000 stolen SSNs coming,
Hope YOURS isn't one of them.
i was just saying the same today that's a good point it could happen.
Uh yeah...it has already happened to me smh
If your credit bad or your a criminal your safe
@katherine taylor 😂 they used my SSN to rent furniture at a rent to own store where you dont need credit. I was not safe lol
@@MyraMonique No one's is really safe with all the data breaches and hacks.
I hope they got caught.
My neighbor went thru the same thing.
YIKES! Send in our military to protect our US Borders...Why aren’t the Presidents of these countries stopping the madness?
They don't want to.
JA G What are the military gonna do? Stare at them?
VOTE RED ... CHANGE THE LAWS... The USA is NOT NOAHS ARK..
No more ASYLUM seekers😨
The Democrats knew the blue wave was coming ... the caravan marching and waving their BLUE flags
El Salvador 🇸🇻
Honduras 🇭🇳
Guatemala 🇬🇹
More votes 🗳 for the Democrats

I was born here, my family came to the US in 1598. Later additions showed up in the later 1700, the last of my Ancestors arrived in 1850's from Europe. (It was one Grandmother running from a famine)
jfsfrnd So I'm an immigrant so to speak, but even so, I acknowledge and clearly see the political motivations of the individual responsible for this 'migration'.
And I guess you people originated here, you guys are such hypocrites everyone deserves a hearing. We would have a immigration bill if the repugnants would have worked with Obama to make a bill. Soften the pres heart what heart?
I have a real bad feeling about this 😞
and I have a good one.
It's not going to be pretty
either way, it's going to be sad!
Same here.
is call karma
Troops on the border, now
sick of liberals SICK OF TRUMPTARDS!!!!
To do what
@@patbyrne3076 Agreed! Its all so very tiring.
Please send a link of our troops on the border
unfortunately, not enough.
Well I can give you information on what is being said here in Mexico so perhaps you can have a perspective outside of the usual:
The caravan started on October 12, 2018 and it was allegedly organized by an ex-congressman of Honduras called Bartolo Fuentes, he was part of the caravan and was updating his facebook profile with testimonies and photos of the caravan but once he arrived to Guatemala he was detained and deported back to Honduras. The chancellery of Honduras says he organized the caravan, provided transportation while in Honduras and made false promises to the immigrants like saying that he had been promised by the Guatemalan and Mexican government safe passage from them, he's also being accused of working with "political powers" to destabilize the country. He denies this and says that the government is looking for scapegoats to deny the humanitarian crisis his country is living...but I mean, to think that 7,000 leaderless people decided to make a caravan out of the blue seems like a long shot... but that's just my opinion.
The caravan consists of 7,233 people according to a mexican association that aides immigrants ([Casa Migrante Saltillo](twitter.com/CDMSaltillo/status/1054032269893980160))
2622 men
2234 women
1070 boys
1307 girls
On the Mexican side, the Mexican ambassador in the USA, Geronimo Gutierrez, said:
>“We have evidence that this caravan is also very much politically motivated. We’re obviously sensitive to the humanitarian situation that we encounter, and we’re acting precisely. But we have also made very clear that there’s no legal ground on which Mexico can issue a permit by which people can just go through Mexico toward the United States."
So the Mexican government is insistingly implying that there's a political actor behind the curtains pushing for an agenda, and they keep mentioning how well timed the caravan is to the midterm elections of US, the final destination of the caravan, but they're not naming anyone because I mean, then democrats would be angry and not just the republicans blaming us for giving shelter, food and offering refugee status to them (but mostly are denying this in fear of being deported) instead of just telling them to go back the way they came.
I can give you some links to sustain this info but they're all in Spanish.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the information.
[This New York Times article seems to answer most of your questions.]( www.nytimes.com/2018/10/20/world/americas/migrants-caravan-mexico.html )
>The caravan is part of a tradition of mass migrations, often organized by advocacy groups, meant to provide safety in numbers to migrants, who face many threats to their safety along the perilous migrant trail. Many say they are fleeing economic distress and violence in their homelands.
>Such caravans have usually numbered in the hundreds and have passed unnoticed. But the current caravan, by far the largest on record, has angered Mr. Trump, who has seized on it as a campaign issue to fire up his base before the midterm elections.
>While other caravans have generally withered as they have progressed north, this one has grown, perhaps in part as a result of all the media attention it has received.
simple plan this was a fake link.
@@nightowl1654 No it's not. The article has been removed. Convenient huh?
I agree that something like this isn’t just randomly started, but like most forms of protest and action, they tend to become their own thing after they get started. At this point, there are people just joining because why not? This caravan is passing through areas that have millions of people in poverty. No doubt some of them are hearing of this and joining. It’s going to be interesting to see what happens.
Do NOT let those people in here. Very dangerous. We need to secure that boarder asap. Dangerous bunch.
Remember Season 3 of Fear the Walking Dead, when the zombies burst through the border base and start flowing in from everywhere even the walls? Thats what this reminds me of.
Imperator Victix. Fear mongerers will be the defeat of the US, not people seeking asylum
The women and children are being used. It's not like humanitarianism should not come to Honduras. This is not the way to go about it.
@@brez5992 No its a migrating horde of Soros walkers who happen to know children make excellent shields to deter tear gas and rubber bullets.
Imperator Victix. Says you....
@Promise EDENTheyre uneducated, poorly skilled non - English speaking hordes knocking over barricades and migrating towards the US border. The only difference is they want to eat that Socialist welfare food, pop out some new Democrat voters instead of eat brains.
What do these people expect to do when they get here? How do they expect to be fed housed and clothed. These people come from a tropical climate and they're going to get here just about when the winter starts. There may be as many as 10,000 and that's just about the same size as an army division
Gary they are saying some already has family here. So i am assuming once they get through they are moving in with family. I do feel bad they are having to flee from their homes in their countries to feel safe. Something needs to be done about the gangs in their countries. But it some of our large cities here in America is not much better. There is violence every where.
Don't worry, the God damn good ole government will take care of them, at the expense of us tax payers of course@
@Marco Polo I think some of them have left to Mexico, Jesse Ventura lives down there
Well, I'll tell you having family here doesn't make them desirable - I had money and my credit card stolen at work by one of these "I have family in the US" illegals, he was wearing an ankle parole bracelet, my boss gave him a second chance by giving him a job and what does he do but steal from fellow workers - it is just a way of life for him- we don't need more of this- also these people end up going to the poorest sections of our cities that are already economically stressed.
went right over your head I guess - the mindset of someone wanting to get into another country to better their future and what do they do? Steal , cheat and lie when opportunities are given to them? Just like I said, it's just a way of life for him. It goes along with the mentality of burning the flag of the country you are seeking asylum in.
I don't feel sorry for not one of them. Turn back and go home now.
Howard Thurman heartless white people
History will judge us by how this is handled.
Gen. Snoball really you think So
Victors are never judged.
We already lock up babies in cages. I think kids learning about this will ponder what were we thinking? And why didn’t we do anything to stop it?
The lying orange toddler lacks the decision making skills to deal with this crisis.
Look elsewhere for the true leadership
that will determine their fate.
God is watching us.
No, its not that important. If japanese internment isnt what is a judge of us today, this certainly wont be its so insignificant by comparision especially considering the camera crews following it are Soros funded based out of NYC.
Does the guy in the wheelchair have an Education? If not, hes going to have to be a labor worker and will he do that if he obviously disabled??? Hes not going to us to work! Hes coming for eventual benefits!!!!! Gtfoh
Then he's gonna sue for discrimination and start a GoFundMe donation page.
He will expect to go on social security disability an u will have a Democrat helping him fill .They feel if he's handicap he would draw even tho he is it an American or every paid one dime in.
He is not an American but they would think he should draw from it.
Why don’t these people waving Honduran flags take a lesson from our founding fathers and take action against their own government if it’s so bad. Fleeing the problem doesn’t solve anything.
So whos doing their laundry LOOK at al the CLEAN CLOTHS and WHITE Tee shirts. Dems have to have portable tractor trailer washing machines and food and jiffy johns THIS IS 7000 PEOPLE!!! A whole stadium
This id so sad. My heart goes out. I can't imagine what that's like. This will be America soon
let the caravan in and let all Dem. and government workers take 50% less Wages to pay for the ....oh by the way they can have them live with them also....
For sure they are people who does NOT respect our LAWS -Lock, LOAD and list!
My heart hurts for these children 💔
Kelly Ann there's only about 5 percent of kids in the whole group
Doesn't matter how many are involved
@@kellyd220 Don't worry. They are all breeders. They will make more babies.
Shouldn't cbs be asking how these 7K people were 'inspired' to make a 3 country 'walk' that should take 4 months to do.
I'm jealous, give me sanctuary rights... I was born here AND I can speak english ! ! ! !
When they get into the United States, where will we go? Canada?
I feel bad for these people, specially the poor babies. Very unfortunate that their country doesn’t do anything for his people, but that is not the USA’s fault. What is wrong with them, thinking they can just force themselves into another country. Mexico can’t even take care of its own people how are they gonna “provide jobs” for others. Where is the wall when you need it!? 🤦🏻♀️ Yes the US is a great place to live, but there are many many here living in poverty, and they hardly get any help! Imagine having thousands of (new) people here that can’t work because they’re here illegally! Nooo that would be so bad for the US. Before I start getting insulted by people, this is my opinion, and you all can have yours. Respect other people’s opinion and agree to disagree. Not need to insult people because they think differently from you.
I agree
Ian R, yes so why would we want more!???!
Karen Garcia well said.
So if your country is so poor.. why would you go have 4-5 kids when you don't have money for them.. what the heck.. did have a problem opening your legs having all them kids happy as heck having all that sex.. but then we have to solve your problems now.. they should all rally like that on their own government but they waste all that time and energy coming to our borders and demanding from us what they don't demand from their government..
Karen Garcia we need to stop welfare and all those poor people wouldn’t be running for the border ...if your handing out free candy to a crowd of kids they will come running ...stop welfare to outsiders ! So simple !
274 illegal immigrants disliked.
Again they only show women while 80 percetn are men
ikr
Does anyone know how many people in America have died here waiting for disability? Sorry, we have to take care of the American citizens here first. We have all those things here too, gangs, violence, lack of high paying jobs. Go home.
I am a progressive and I think we need to intervene in the overpopulation of the US & the world. If you live in poverty, don’t have children. If your dream is to be a parent, you owe it to your children to be able to support them & yourself before popping kids out. It just makes sense but if one can not understand that than someone should make that decision for the sake of humanity.
I dig that. I think what's crazy is, it's not even the Americans that are over populating this country. It's all of these immigrants. They're all on government assistance for the most part. Their businesses are tax free and we just keep on giving. It's okay to support our own and help them if they are trying to help themselves. But all of this other stuff has to stop.
Like people seem to think that it's African Americans that are over populating the country but it's been proven continuously that we are the only race in America that's not reproducing contrary to popular belief. Back in the early 1900s maybe but from the 80s moving forward our numbers have dropped tremendously.
I do not support this invasion in any way but I want to point out that this is one of the only left-wing media videos that wasn't filled with anti-republican divisive speech and I really appreciate it.
They just walking countless miles just to be put on a plane back to Guatemala. This is idiotic.
Since when is it an American Presidents responsibility to take care of another countries people before his own
If they stay in california is ok that reporter should take a couple of them home 🇺🇸
Pedro Rodriguez pendejo
My heart breaks hearing this.
Trump 2020 !!!
God Bless these people on there journey. May they be safe and be given refuge.
Wtf? Did she really say paralyzed and looking for work? More like looking for his disability check.
@jfsfrnd ones with stolen social security numbers do...
Maybe not but he’ll get free medical care his entire life. He can go to any ER for any little complaint and get treated for free thanks to EMTALA. He’ll run 100s of thousands of dollars in medical bills and never pay a penny.
Any child who dies is solely the responsibility of the parents
Every military branch is getting ready
1:25 This woman is walking thousands of miles and wears sandals? Doubtful.
Why don't you interview the men who speak English? Ask where they learned it and if they belong to ms-13.
I am very happy to see the comment section having competent views on this matter
I wish I could walk with them!! History will tell this great story !! Keep it up !
LOCO JAZZ i will walk with them too they deserve to have a better future
Adriana Navarro agree!!! We should donate water to keep them hydrated! 👍🏾👍🏾
If kids are sick, that's because their parent put them in harms way. And that's the fault of the parent, no one else's.
We’ve been very concerned about everyone’s health. Immigrants and citizens.
I wouldn't be surprised soros made some kind if deal with mexico to turn a blind eye
I'm Mexican American and I'm proud to be an American, don't be waving your Mexico flag if you want to be in my COUNTRY!!
Station weight watchers at the border.
We need build a wall in the border with Guatemala and Guatemala pay for this wall 😐👌kapish
HOLY SH$T look how fake and scripted this news was. Look at the guy in the background an d hi timing. He just happens to come out of the ambulance ( where he was coached) Hesitates swinging a towel looking up past the right side of the Dem reporter Then on Que doesn't walk straight but up onto the road perfectly to her right side and in frame.
Just as she says the words "The dehydration's is what threatening every one who walks through here ...On Que he wipes his face then looks down acting like nothing a miss.
Then the reporter says " these are tough conditions" and again on Que that instant he he wipes his face in perfect timing'
Then he looks to left then way to the right pretending like shes not there, then perfectly within ONE step of running into her he looks front and dam near runs into her as he went around her. FAKE NEWS!!!!
Stop giving them food and water, and medical treatment, let them fend for themselves, the more you help the stronger they become.
One down. 7,000 to go.
They say “by any means necessary they’re going to get to the US”-> sounds like a threat to me!
This truly breaks my heart😔I’m sure the president isn’t sleeping anything because of this on his hands. I pray to God that these people receive some kind of help, I can’t even begin to imagine what it must be like in their countries that they left. But the documentaries I’ve seen so far are really horrible!
Yes it's in his power to deploy millatary to stop these invader mob. Put them right on to a cargo plane and ship them all back.
Honduras economy is booming now.. wtf are you talking about. These people are paid well to come here so they will.
How about praying to your God to improve the situations in these central American countries so that the people don't feel the need to flee. your God obviously hasn't listened to the migrants prayers but maybe he'll listen to yours
Please define God
#1 rule. DON'T get run over by a truck.
load your weapon's Texas
I live in Texas and support President Trump. I sent him a contribution before he became the Republican candidate and voted for him in the primary and general elections. I believe that he has the ability as President and Commander-in-chief to STOP this invasion from Guatemala. I do believe that he will stop those folks from entering our country illegally. I consider this to be a test of my confidence in President Trump. If he cannot or does not stop this invasion I will no longer support his presidency. Just my opinion, yours will differ!
I am Hispanic and they need to help them out.
They need to fix their country.
Aneshia Dixon true
javier castellon go away conspiracy theorist
Why dont you go help them if it matters that much to you???
Can you donate your money, invite them into your home, cloth feed them for nothing in return. And without them earning it? If you can then please sign a legal document making you responsible for them. Otherwise advocate their countries to help them...not us. Were done with freebies
Hearing babies sweating that much makes me really angry. These babies have no choice, but are being dragged along by their mothers. Why not stop and stay in Mexico?
May God soften the heart of the President? It is soft and caring towards the American people ! Stand up for us Mr. President we’ve got your 6.
America first. Most have lost their insurance because they're paying for Obama's expanded Medicaid.
Invasion of aggressive arrogant people. Come here legally!!!!! We don't owe anyone anything. We have no respect from foreigners. Like my grandparents who went to Ellis Ilsland from Romania, LEGAL ENTRY ONLY!!!!
Being poor doesn't qualify for asylum
I'm so sorry for these children this must be awful!
You know the strangest thing in the world that people always crying for help and they self is electing the wrong people to be in government
Who is supporting this? I don't see anyone talking about who is feeding 10,000+ poor people that can't feed themselves. Someone is making this happen.
Why have five children if you're that poor? That's what they'll do in the U.S.; have bunches of children starting at age 14 or less and turn to our government to help support them.
If they are in detention in the U.S. that is way better than what they have already. That is not a deterrent at all. What makes me upset is that they are all offered asylum in Mexico and most have refused.
Adriana, at 1:06 they are yelling “OUT WITH TRUMP”. Now, either you didn’t understand (because your Spanish is lousy) or you AGREE with them!!
these people were offered asylum in Mexico but they refused.
Why don't you tell them that many Americans don't want them here as well?
They are not in danger. They are not walking they have transportation and food. This is BS. Why don't they fix their country by working in the farm and vote a good person to run their government.
Each kid will cost 200k to educate in USA. We choose not to have kids as Americans we can not afford our own.
IF THEIR COUNTRY IS SO DANGEROUS WHY LEAVE MOST OF THEIR CHILDREN THERE
I can’t imagine how bad life must be for these people that they would make this journey.
These people think the US gives everyone in America a house and a job the same way it provides free education to children...they don't realize the truth because they want to come into the US and be given the things they expect.
Guarding US borders from foreign invasion is not “law enforcement.”
The US Army exists to defend the US from foreign invasion, which is expressly authorized by the US Constitution. Guarding the Mexican border was the Army’s primary peacetime mission until 1940, and no one ever declared this was in violation of this 1878 act. The US Border Patrol wasn’t even formed until 1924, so claiming the intent of this law was to prevent US Army troops from guarding the border is absurd. The map at left shows US Army forts in Texas in the late 1880s when the entire US Army had fewer than 40,000 soldiers; it has 500,000 today. Clearly, defending the US border was a primary mission of the US Army for decades after this act was passed.
Risking children's lives, is not worth it.
for these people dying and getting shot by the hands of someone who was just doing their job and not by no gangster from Honduras is more honorable
Something is fishy - - these people are not walking like they’ve been working for days...
Don't feel sorry for these folks anymore. They're in for a shock when they won't be able to get into the US. These people didn't think anything through and the children will pay the price!
If I lived in Honduras, I would be raising a garden to feed my family not dragging children a thousand miles for someone else to feed. How about all those young men (waving another country's flag) --are they willing to join the U S military and fight for this country or do they expect to live here and let the taxpayers pay to feed, house, educate, medicate, adjudicate and incarcerate the millions who come here illegally?
Everybody deserve freedom
Child abuse, kids should be taken away from their abusers/parrents
Don’t let them in.
I live in a side of town where a bunch of Central Americans live off our tax payer money.
I don’t want to be paying to another 7 million.
I’ve had enough!
Prayers to The Most High GOD for all my Brothas and Sistahs in all four corners of this earth.
Emigrants should apply for asylum at the Consulate or Embassy in their country of origin, not at the borders. CHANGE THE LAW NOW, while they are still in route!
No more Asylum must be shut down
THIS COUNTRY CANNOT CONTINUE TO AID THESE OTHER COUNTRIES WITHOUT SACRIFICING OUR OWN CITIZENS..
Poor babies, we still can't let them in because more will come.
They should turn back and just go home. We don't need anymore problems. No sympathy for the women who leave her children, it is a choice not a must.
Why are these people putting themselves and their children through this. Its It's crazy.
Do you have any idea how many millions we give these countries? Here is an example: 2017 Disbursements - Mexico $300 Million, Guatemala $241 Million, El Salvador $94 Million, Honduras $150 Million. So these people complaining about poverty need to rally their governments to spend the money we give their country on them. Here's your link:
explorer.usaid.gov/aid-dashboard.html#2017
Come American people let's walk through Mexico and gutemala and Honduras if we do it then see what Mexico and gutemala and Honduras government do to us they will stop it
I just don’t understand why you would expose children to this ridiculousness
Must be really bad.Mother brought her strongest child with her and left 3 behind? WTF
Look at all the trash around the ambulance, sweet people leaving trash to the people who saved them. This is what we can expect
Only one??? Damn.
They don't know how hard life is in America
go home people...turn around and go back!
I really feel for these people
Americans tell them not to come. They give them options. Every single one of these people is going to be denied.
They're risking their lives because of ridiculously unbelievably stupid choices.
Shame on her leaving her younger children
what? running from poverty? ridiculous. here in EU invaders at least 'run from war'.
I feel for the kids....may the Lord keep them strong
