IRAPUATO, Mexico (AP) — Several thousand Central American migrants have started the day hitching rides toward the western Mexico city of Guadalajara as they prepare to hit the Pacific coast route northward.

The route to the border city of Tijuana is still about 1,550 miles (2,500 kilometers) away.

Whereas the migrants suffered from the heat in southern Mexico in mid-October, they now trek to highways wrapped in blankets to fend off the morning chill.

Migrants gathered Monday on a highway leading out of the central city of Irapuato and looked to climb aboard trucks to take them to Guadalajara.

The migrants will be dropped off in at least three locations: (Brownsville, Texas, McAllen, Texas, Tijuana/San Diego)

The government of Queretaro said via Twitter that 6,531 migrants had moved through the state between Friday and Saturday. It said that 5,771 of those were departing Sunday morning.

They should get the registration information off of those trucks and the second they ever cross into US territory arrest them for human trafficking and sanction the frick out of the company owners.

Seize all US assets.

I guess nobody knows how to say "Amistad" in Honduran.

Looks like a California entry attempt. I can't wait for all the progressives there to open up their homes to these dreamers.

Evidently McAllen was so worked up about this that they packed up and moved to Uvalde.

How many airplanes will be on standby in San Diego to route these people back home?

They get bussed to locations all over the country to await a court date. They aren’t staying wherever they cross.

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE FUNDS
A Global Economic Report examination into U.S. funding for Central America found that U.S.-based public and private agencies control the aid distribution.

Overall, U.S. appropriations go to a wide-range of initiatives, including agriculture development, sustainable economic growth, literacy, workforce development, pandemic influenza control, government debt and finance reorganization, and activities of the Honduran National Anti-Corruption Council.

The funds are distributed to nongovernment organizations like the Catholic Relief Services, FHI 360, World Vision, and Fintrac, Inc, among others.

Several U.S. agencies are involved in managing the distributions. They include: the State Department, USAID, Defense Department, Treasury Department, Inter-American Foundation, Department of Agriculture, the Interior Department and the Millennium Challenge Corporation.

This is really infuriating so effectively the US Government is funding these people's journey to the US. Global Economic Report

I've never heard of the Millennium Challenge Corporation Millenium Challenge Corporation

We need to send a fleet of undercover trucks down there to haul migrants.....except that the drivers get paid by the U.S. government to turn around surreptitiously and take them back south.

I noticed the Mexican government kept the migrants far away from the money spots along the Pacific Coast like Acapulco, Ixtapa Zihuatenejo, and Mazatlan and sent them to Veracrz instead and then through the mountains to Mexico City and Guadalajara. I surprised they've stayed this far intact this far into Mexico
