CNN.com is reporting that the migrant caravan has reached the border of Guatemala and Mexico. In the sweltering heat, people began to be violent and the Mexican police pushed back.
From the CNN.com report:
Members of the caravan — many with children in tow — gathered in the border city of Tecun Uman, Guatemala, Friday morning. They waited in sweltering heat for hours for others to arrive, packing streets for blocks on end.
They then streamed through gates on the Guatemalan side of the border around 12 p.m. Friday (2 p.m. ET), cheering and chanting as they marched. Celebratory airhorns blared as they headed toward Mexico’s port of entry.
After days of traveling, often on foot, they appeared to be one step closer to reaching their goal.
And:
A surge of migrants broke through a steel fence that had been padlocked shut. Mexican police in riot gear set off smoke canisters and pushed them back.
Hundreds of Mexican Federal Police sealed the border as drones and helicopters hovered above the crowd.
Mexican authorities later opened the gates and allowed about 15 women and children through.
Thousands of other migrants are still waiting to cross, according to CNN teams at the scene.

And a little bit more from CNN.com:
At least a dozen migrants stuck on the bridge jumped into the Suchiate River below. It was unclear if they were trying to swim across to the Mexico side of border, go back to Guatemala or just get relief from the crowds on the bridge.
Some of the migrants on the bridge told CNN they joined the caravan because they were desperate for work and had no other choice.

Okay, so, I am not an expert at anything. I am just a little ol’ housewife sitting in the shadows of the Great Smoky Mountains with my laptop and thinking. Now, I am not learned or trained like our media overlords or our politicians, but something feels all wrong about this. Watch this video and then let’s ponder some questions.
Estimates are that there are two to four thousand human beings in this “migrant caravan”. Here are my questions:
1. Migrant Caravan or Violent Invasion? I am not a geopolitical expert or historian, but that kinda looks less like a caravan (and I have seen a few) and more like an invading army. The migrants are seen in many videos carrying the flag of the Honduras before them and chanting. The leftwits may fall for this story of starving people crawling towards a better life. I see an invading army. And, speaking of starving…
2. Who is feeding all of these people? According to Telesurvtv.net, 1,400 Hondurans left San Pedro Sula on October 14 (last Sunday) for Guatemala. The invaders have grown to about 4,000 since then. Do you have any idea how much food that would take? Since they are on the move, they require more caloric intake than normal. None of these people look as if they have missed a meal. And who is keeping them hydrated? For real. I am not kidding. Potable water trucks are somewhere out there. We just need photos.
3. Who is providing medical services? Statistically speaking, you cannot have that many people without having medical care. Someone will turn a, ankle, get sunstroke, or the norovirus. Think about a cruise ship: stomach virus breakouts all over hell and half of Georgia. Are we supposed to believe that these poor Hondurans have better handwashing habits than those who cruise Carnival? And speaking of sanitary facilities…
4. Where are they shitting? I have said this to my poor, beleaguered husband two, three, maybe four times a day, every day this week. Are these people dropping trou at the side of the road and taking a dump? Is it like a marathon and someone has pre-positioned port-o-potties every mile or so? What about toilet paper, hand sanitizers and poo-pourri? Talk about a hazmat situation. Four thousand people moving about 1,200 miles. The hazardous material clean-up would be unreal. To quote the movie “Envy” starring Jack Black and Ben Stiller: “Where does the poo go?” Real world here, folks. Guatemala must have an environmental disaster on her hands.
Anyone who has ever traveled with a toddler or, in my case, moved cross country four times, knows that logistics are key. The more people involved and the greater the distance, the more complex the logistics.
Like I said, I am just a simple housewife with a laptop. I am absolutely shocked at the intellectually incurious people out there. They accept what they see without question.
Of course, I could be very wrong. The migrant caravan may receive manna from Heaven, tent fairies may supply their needs at night, and their bodily fluids may just magic away.
Or, we could be getting screwed by a well-developed plan to invade our country which our media overlords and politicians know about and ignore.
What do our VG readers think?

Welcome Instapundit Readers!
I have had the same thoughts. There has to be a quartermaster for this invasion column. And I believe that is exactly what it is. 4,000 new voters for the Democrats. If this stands as precedent then only more will come. I too have noted the flags and anthems. Why does not PDT openly ask these questions. My guess is that Ernst Stavros Blofeld, aka George Soros, is lurking in the background somewhere,
George Soros
DING DING DING! We have a winner!
Regarding your first point, it smacks of a military invasion (https://www.britannica.com/topic/military-unit). You wouldn’t be incorrect to say that 10 battalions are advancing on our southern border.
You wouldn’t be incorrect to say that 10 battalions are advancing on our southern border.
You would be seriously incorrect. 4 battalions, by headcount. Less than a WW1 infantry company by combat capacity, unless they have a lot of hidden weapons.
What should be noted is that Mexico is NOT stopping them. Generally, if an invading force is given free passage through a country, that means the country in question is NOT an ally or friend. Massive force disparities may alter the above equation, but such force disparities in this case work against considering Mexico to be a friend and/or ally.
One other question, the timing of this traveling carnival freak show. Barring any serious interference they would show up at the US border just in time for the mid-term elections. Does anyone doubt this entire thing was planned and coordinated months in advance?
was just gonna reply the same
the sentence “Or, we could be getting screwed by a well-developed plan to invade our country which our media overlords and politicians know about and ignore.” and it coincidentally is timed to put Trump in a bad light just at mid-terms
1200 miles in 15 days ? on foot ? nope … maybe by Christmas …
Yeah, that requires 80 miles per day, with the average person averaging 3-4 mph at a sustained walking speed. Which works out to walking for 20-27* hours a day. I’ve actually done some serious walking, and there’s no way you’re doing that for 15 days straight, without some help.
(*Yeah, so they’ve invented a time machine, too.)

Yes, this is an invasion, and it should be treated as such. To include the possibility of invading another country in order to stop it from reaching our borders.
We need to stop this crap before it grows to the point we have to slaughter a bunch of these folks.
I don’t care how benign they might seem to be, when a group of people show up at your house, DEMANDING entrance, you don’t let them in.
Food, water, sanitation, shelter: where are these coming from? Who pays?
Someone on our side of the media should embed with the group and find out.
A regional insurrection has been noticed. The elite have tried to take care of things internally.
This failed, now global reinforcements are being called in to break the recalcitrants and their leadership.
Well, there is some indication that they are marching right into the path of a hurricane…Ooopsie.
Soros, with playbook provided by Alinsky.
Period.
Another question is where are the women and kids we’ve been told about? In most pictures it’s almost all men.
Mainly I’m jealous of the fact that Mexico has a fence and troops at its southern border. Why isn’t anyone talking about that?
DING!
And I’m mighty peeved that Mexico is NOT using that fence and troops to stop them. Why, it’s almost as if the Mexican gov’t is conspiring to enable an invasion of the US.
One or several non-profits – including many religious organizations – are paying for all of this.
No need to expose US troops to this fiasco and provide media ammo to the enemy. Something more subtle may be in order…
It would be a shame if the caravan (and the progs traveling with them – media/Soros NGOs) found themselves in a deniable mist of drone, night-sprayed cholera (or some other milder tropical disease) well south of the border. Would need to take into consideration logistics/timing/incubation period to insure disease hits in a remote part of Mexico far from Mexican cities or the US border. They’re all healthy young men who should survive (no infants or old people in this army). Certainly unpleasant, but not fatal.
Would raise the cost of this happening again. “Caravans are dangerous, disease ridden threats to Mexico!” The Caravan would need to be quarantined in remote Mexico (in quarters without any wireless comms?!) until well after election day. Guatamalan recruits and Mexican public/public health authorities would see new dangers in this kind of lawless invasion. $500/head from Soros wouldn’t be so appealing in the campos next time….
Biological warfare. BAD. nope, nyet, nada, uhuh, nein. Worse than nukes, much worse.
I have been asking the same questions. Where are the “journalists”?
I guess they don’t exist as no one is asking these questions or even interviewing the people. They appear clean, fresh hair cuts, fresh clothes and I am supposed to believe they walked 1200 miles in 15 days?
It is disturbing that no one is asking except people on internet.
The saying that nobody asks questions because they do not want the answers.
The front line group,Pueblo Sin Fronteras, are being supplied by,
“by the coalition CARA Family Detention Pro Bono Project, which includes Catholic Legal Immigration Network (CLIN), the American Immigration Council (AIC), the Refugee and Immigration Center for Education and Legal Services (RICELS) and the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) – thus the acronym CARA,” WND reported. “At least three of the four groups are funded by George Soros’ Open Society Foundation.”
If the groups aiding this invasion force are nonprofit groups with tax exempt status they should all loose this status for committing a treasonous act in aiding the enemy of the United States of America
“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.”
The Constitution of the United States, Article IV, Section 4
The caravan intends to go 3000 km in 30 days. They are being transported by vehicles provided by someone.

I cannot conceive the number of international organizations that are assisting in this exodus of human trafficking from their respective countries of origin.This is an invasion to use desperate men, women and children for a ” RED DAWN ” assault on the United States. Only this is all done with news reports monitoring every movement of this migrant invasion. Mexico is to blame for not deploying their security forces in a timely and strategic matter. Even though we have relations with Mexico, Mexico is still reeling from their defeat at the Alamo and the relinquishing of the Southwest. Mexico supports the efforts of La Raza ( the race ) working in the United States for decades to take back at any means, the Southwest, particularly the state of Texas. This invasion must be stopped and don’t expect Mexico to do everything in their power to stop them. This will only be stopped with an iron-clad U.S. military operation at the border, under the orders of President Donald J. Trump, and he will be protected under the law, as Commander-in Chief and above all, the support of the American people. We, the American people do not want violence, we want and support the laws of the United States to be respected by all.
