Migrant groups demand reparations. $50,000 each.

Two groups of Central American migrants made separate marches on the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana Tuesday, demanding that they be processed through the asylum system more quickly and in greater numbers, that deportations be halted and that President Trump either let them into the country or pay them $50,000 each to go home.

On the one-month anniversary of their arrival into Tijuana, caravan members are pressing the United States to take action but they are dwindling in numbers since more than 6,000 first arrived to the city’s shelters.

Approximately 700 have voluntarily returned to their country of origin, 300 have been deported, and 2,500 have applied for humanitarian visas in Mexico, according to Xochtil Castillo, a caravan member who met with Mexican officials Tuesday. The group of unaccounted migrants, about 3,500 are presumed to have either crossed illegally into the United States, moved to other Mexican border cities, or simply fallen through the cracks.

The first group demanding action, numbering about 100, arrived at the U.S. Consulate at about 11 am Tuesday. The migrants said they were asking that the Trump Administration pay them $50,000 each or allow them into the U.S.

Nice symmetry. One group for Nancy Pelosi, one group for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

They are grifters, plain and simple. Ship them back!

So 100 people ask for something that they almost certainly won’t get. When do I set my hair on fire?

And there we have it. They're not migrants. They're not invaders. They're extortionists and shakedown artists, exploiting their own children in their scam.

Who are “they,” R4? The 100 people at the US consulate in Tijuana? Jesus Christ. Tranquilate.

R5 answers her own silly question.

You’re incredibly stupid, R6.

Well, you know what they say...

Don't get me started on these parasites. Someone tried to shame me here on my personal thread for calling these good-for-nothings out. Backfired, of course.

You're incredibly juvenile R7. No surprise.

They're trespassers

And trespassers may be shot
