It was one of several raids here last week to sweep up migrants, part of a broad Mexican crackdown against the surge of Central Americans and others streaming toward the United States. In recent weeks, the Mexican authorities have been breaking up migrant caravans and setting up round-the-clock roadblocks along common routes north.
Detentions and deportations in Mexico are multiplying quickly, sowing fear among the many thousands of Central Americans and others crowding the migrant shelters and budget hotels here in southern Mexico, most of them hoping to reach the American border.
The Mexican government has been under intense pressure from President Trump to block the tens of thousands of undocumented migrants trudging north each month. With the American authorities unable to stop illegal immigration into the United States, Mr. Trump has taken aim at countries in the region — including Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, the origins of most of the migration — threatening punishment unless they to do more…
In April, nearly 15,000 migrants were deported by Mexico, up from about 9,100 in March, according to government statistics. The monthly tally climbed even higher in May. Over the last two months, the Lopez Obrador administration deported 67 percent more migrants than its predecessor did during the same period in 2018.
But but but…we’re going to have to pay more!

Oh, in other news President Trump’s UK trip, the trip the MSM and NeverTrumpers breathlessly predicted would be a disaster, has turned out to be anything but.

@Deplorable Me: Miller has no proof. He just continues to spew radical comments that do not resemble truth. He is a subversive individual who is part of a subversive organization with no goal of improving our country or the lives of the citizens of my country, maybe not his. I wonder if he understands that if he lived in a socialist country for which he yearns, he may be residing in a field with a carved stone at his head? Here, he can say what he wants courtesy of many patriots who have sacrificed greatly to give him that right. Wonder what he has sacrificed to have that right.
@Randy:
All credibility and dignity.
@Deplorable Me: Miller has sacrificed nothing to be able to have free speech. He is just part of those who want something for nothing and he believes that he is so important that others should be providing his needs at no costs. He has done nothing substantial in his life and can only criticize those who have achieved something or have contributed to a cause. People like MIller are a tape worm on society.
@Randy: Well, I’m still waiting for him to finish showing me “how it’s done” by providing his substantiation of his claim N. Korea has conducted more nuclear tests. How long should I wait?
@Deplorable Me: He is all hot air. Enriching materials is not nuclear testing. Move on. There are people on this site who want to have relevant conversations . We appreciate your comments and research. Miller is not one of those.
@Randy: I know, I know. I just want to drag a confession out of him.
@Gary Miller:
*looks at the field of Dem candidates for 2020…realizes Miller is an actual buffoon*
If only you and your party had a platform beyond “we hate Trump” you might start winning elections again. But yeah, get on a small conservative blog and have at it! That will change things!
Coward.
@Nathan Blue: Mr Miller should change his name to something catchy like jiggles or bozo, he is a clown living in an imaginary world, honk honk. Kim is doing nuclear testing honk honk, Trump is a Russian agent honk honk. Obama was saving the world and Hillary was his mop up crew honk honk, he and Greg do their level best to spread their TV opinion factless commie politics.
Biden was speaking to a rally of about 30 people and he didn’t make a single statement without lying. He is really trying to appeal to the liberal base who just LOVES to be lied to.
@kitt:
Or change it back to AJ. That’s who he sounds like.
