Getting into Mexico via the southern border is not difficult..it's porous. However, how they manage the distance on the trek thru Mexico is a mystery. If they are paying cayotes then where are they getting the money since they are supposed to be victims of extreme poverty.

For many of the kids they are getting the money from parents who are already here, who've been working and saving for it.

This is actually a great point I haven't seen before. Nothing is free and there is no possible way that those kids walked 2,000+ miles. I think with the admin supposedly initiating some entity to run different types of ads/flyers throughout Central America claiming "if you come to the US border you won't be turned away" leads me believe that the US is somehow coordinating their passage through Mexico. I could also solely be the Cartels coordinating this because it obviously overwhelms the border patrol which allows them to smuggle drugs and weapons more freely or it could be a coordination by both the cartels and the US. It's a win-win! The Dems get future voters and the cartels get to move product!

Forward!!!!!!!!

I've been asking the same damn question. I've read reports of $2000 per person. Where in the hell does someone who is poor in Guatemala get his/her hands on $2000 spare dollars? More to the point, if you have a spare $2000, then you aren't really poor in Central America.
