As New Year’s opened in San Diego, 150 Central American caravan migrants attempted to illegally cross the border during the cover of night and holiday festivities.

They were successfully repelled by the US Border Patrol.

More than a dozen migrants were apprehended after 150 migrants tried to climb the border fence in San Diego, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The incident happened New Year’s Eve at an unspecified time.

According to the agency, 45 migrants turned back due to CBP’s increased presence at the border before another group of migrants started throwing rocks at agents.

Border Patrol agents added that the group tried to lift toddler-sized children over the concertina wire, but agents were unable to help the children because too many rocks were being thrown.

Agents used pepper spray upwind and tear gas of the migrants to try and deter them from throwing rocks.

CBP says the measures weren’t aimed at the migrants and “successfully suppressed the rock throwers causing them to flee the area.”

Most of the migrants returned to Mexico through a hole under the fence and by climbing back over the fence.

Despite the press attempting to weaponize the compassion of Americans against their own best interests, these is a great deal of support for the Border Patrol’s actions.

Meanwhile, another migrant caravan with as many as 15,000 participants is preparing to leave Honduras on January 15.

“They say they are even bigger and stronger than the last caravan,” said Irma Garrido, a member of the migrant advocacy group Reactiva Tijuana Foundation.

Meanwhile, thousands of Central American migrants from a caravan that left Honduras in October remain stranded at the U.S.-Mexico border and languishing in crowded Tijuana shelters while they wait out a lengthy process to file asylum requests with the United States.

..Garrido said this new, larger caravan will likely be joined by more people in El Salvador and in Guatemala, but she said they don’t plan on coming straight to the Tijuana-San Diego border, where resources are already stretched nearly to a breaking point.

“They will stay in the south of Mexico in Chiapas and Oaxaca. Their aim is to request work there,” she said.

How are the members of the first batch of caravan migrants faring? Border authorities are referring 50 people a day for urgent medical care, including cases of tuberculosis and flu.

[Customs and Border Patrol] Commissioner Kevin McAleenan said most of those needing help were ill when they arrived at the border, and some appear to have made the initial decision to leave even while ailing.

“Many were ill before they departed their homes,” the commissioner said. “We’re talking about cases of pneumonia, tuberculosis, parasites. These are not things that developed urgently in a matter of days.”

The American media is doing its best to undermine reasonable concerns for American public health.

People who oppose immigration often argue that migrants bring disease with them, and that they then become a burden to health systems in their new countries because they’re so sick.

But that’s not true, a team of experts argued in a new report released Wednesday.
… “Contrary to the current political narrative portraying migrants as disease carriers who are a blight on society, migrants are an essential part of economic stability in the U.S.,” added Terry McGovern, who heads Columbia University’s Department of Population and Family Health.

I will simply point out that the State of the Union address is January 22. Between the Border Wall budget battle and the continuing caravans, President Donald Trump already has plenty of material for an epic evening.

The Democrats do not care about Open Borders and all of the crime and drugs that Open Borders bring!

But they do care. They want more. Cloward & Piven are their patron saints.

    And Saul Alinksy too with his “Rules for Radicals” which was obviously the Bible of Barack Obola and cherished by The Hildebeast in a Pantsuit.

These violent people may make good Democrats but would be terrible citizens. Secure the border.

” . . . migrants are an essential part of economic stability in the U.S.,”

Yeah, sure they are. Three-quarters of California’s immigrants, both legal and illegal, are on welfare. Over 60% nationally are on welfare.

Allowing unlimited numbers of foreign welfare-seekers to swarm across our border is not going to promote “economic stability,” it’s going to ensure economic catastrophe.

Our current illegal alien population costs taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars a year at a time when we have $22 trillion in federal debt, hundreds of trillions more in unfunded liabilities, we’re routinely spending a trillion dollars more every year than we take in in revenue, and we have multiple states (CA, IL, etc.) and territories (e.g., PR) teetering on the edge of bankruptcy.

But sure, we can afford to wave in another 20- or 50- or 100-million or more third-world welfare seekers who have neither the education nor the skills to get a job that pays them enough to support the families they bring (or have) here, right? We’ll just fire up the old magic money tree and keep pretending we can forever continue to spend trillions more dollars than we actually have. What could possibly go wrong?

    All these Future Demtards want is to find a Government Teat. And while suckling, the kill American, rape Americans, and cost money to deport them.

    BUILD THE GD WALL WHETHER WE TAKE THE MONEY OUT OF THE BANK ACCOUNT OF DEMTARDS, THE DEFENSE BUDGET PURSUANT TO PROVIDING SECURITY TO THE USA, OR CHICOM MITCH MCCONNELL GROWS A PAIR AND USES THE TOOLS ALREADY AT THIS DISPOSAL TO GIVE PRESIDENT TRUMP THE FUNDING.

    UNTIL THEN, KEEP THE MFr CLOSED AND DON’T PAY BACK WAGES; MAYBE THOSE WITH PAIN WILL GET CHUCKLES SCHUMMER OR CHICOM MITCH OFF THEIR AZZ TO DO WHAT WE ELECTED DONALD TRUMP TO DO: MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN AND STOP THE POLICIES AND ACTIONS OF BARACK OBOLA AND HIS COMMUNIST DEMTARD PARTY.

But, but assaulting immigration agents worked so well for all those Italian and Hungarian immigrants funneling through Ellis Island in the 1890’s…

What ever happened to napalm????

I’m not sure I understand exactly what these people were trying to do by getting toddlers above concertina wire, but it sounds scary, dangerous, and not what I’d recommend as good parenting…

Different day, same crap.

Place sanctuary city politicians in front of those brave men and women protecting us from invasion. Use the traitors as a human shield from thrown rocks.

Douse them with iridescent, indelible spray such that they cannot conceal their status. Add Ethyl mercaptan to the tear gas such that the stench associated with natural or propane gas will repel them and allow ready identification of them by their lovely bouquet.

Bill their home countries for the cost of returning their vagrants and reduce any US subsidies their nation may receive by $10,000 per Obamigrant.

Charge Mexico $10,000 per alien for allowing them to violate our southern border, aka, Mexico.

Need money for a fence? Take it from any subsidies awarded to Mexico and California. Defund all federal education subsidies to California based on the dollar value expended in California for harboring Obamigrants.

Napalm.

Oh yeah, importing an underclass of uneducated, unskilled people is key for “economic stability.”

The first time they file taxes it’s going to cost us way more than they would ever provide in benefit.

I recommend trying .223. Well placed, this is usually effective.

Idea: infiltrate antifa and put the idea in their heads that these wanna-be invaders are Nazis. Then, watch them attack each other at the border.
