Despite Reports, ‘Caravan’ Tells CNN They’re STILL Heading To U.S.-Mexico Border

The mainstream media are completely bored by a caravan of refugees — 1,500 or more — that have been marching toward the U.S.-Mexico border.

The media have reported that Mexican officials broke up the caravan, and that none of the refugees, mostly from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, actually plans to go all the way to the border.

But Leila Santiago, CNN’s reporter in Mexico who is following the caravan, asked the travelers on Monday where they plan go, NTK reported.

Santiago first claimed that many of the migrants would stay in Mexico, and she asked those on the bus where they would go.

“They are fleeing violence from gangs that are controlling the areas in Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, where they live,” she said. “Many of them will stay in Mexico.”

They did not back up her claim.

“Who will stay in Mexico?” she asked the bus in Spanish.

None of the migrants raised their hands.

“Who will go to the United States?” Santiago inquired immediately after.

Most of the bus raised their hands, while others did not answer.

President Trump has raged about the caravan, demanding Mexico stop them en route to the U.S. border.

“Mexico has the absolute power not to let these large ‘Caravans’ of people enter their country. They must stop them at their Northern Border, which they can do because their border laws work, not allow them to pass through into our country, which has no effective border laws,” he said on Twitter on April 2. “Mexico is making a fortune on NAFTA…They have very strong border laws – ours are pathetic.”

Last Tuesday, Trump vowed to deploy the military to stop the group from crossing into the U.S.

“We are going to be guarding our border with our military. That’s a big step,” Trump told reporters gathered at the White House. “We cannot have people flowing into our country illegally, disappearing, and by the way never showing up for court.”

The president also warned Mexico that the U.S. could kill a trade pact known as NAFTA.
