Hundreds of migrants from a Central American “caravan” turned themselves in to the US Border Patrol in El Paso, Texas. They hope to still get asylum in the US, due to to a court challenge to President Donald Trump’s new policy.

Groups of migrants, including families, showed up at an opening in the border fence between El Paso and Ciudad Juarez starting Monday morning, the Border Patrol said. By the end of the day, over 400 had turned themselves in, and were taken into custody.

The migrants were part of a caravan of people requesting asylum in the US, Border Patrol spokesman Joe Romero told El Paso’s KVIA-TV.

“They see what we have here, so they’re trying to do the same thing,”local resident Mary Juarez, who lives in the neighborhood next to the fence opening, told KVIA. “I understand where they’re coming from, but they need to do it the right way.”

Over 700 miles to the west, in Tijuana, dozens of caravan migrants climbed over the fence to be detained by Border Patrol on the California side. A Reuters reporter witnessed “two dozen” people climbing over the border fence and head for the border wall on top of the hill beyond. More followed after sunset.

At least two “caravans” started out from El Salvador and Honduras in late October, storming the gates on the border bridge between Guatemala and Mexico. After spending a week in Mexico City, the caravans continued their march north after the US midterm elections, riding on trucks and buses until some of them reached the border with California.

The Trump administration reacted by deploying over 5,000 troops on the border and declaring that only those who cross at legal points of entry would be even considered for asylum. A federal judge in California, however, blocked that policy change on November 19.

On Friday, Judge Jon Tigar refused to suspend his ruling, saying that the Department of Justice has not “rebutted the significant harms that will be suffered by asylum seekers with legitimate claims and the organizations that assist them,”according to AP.

On Tuesday, the Pentagon extended the deployment of troops along the border through the end of January 2019. It was previously set to expire on December 15.

5 striking VIDEOS that reveal the violence & compassion of France’s Yellow Vest protests

5 striking VIDEOS that reveal the violence & compassion of France’s Yellow Vest protests

A shirtless man battling a water cannon; a cadre of riot cops beating a curled up demonstrator; the City of Lights awash in flames – these are the images that have shocked the world after nearly three weeks of protests in France.

The upheaval over soaring fuel prices has spread across the country, with the French government mulling the suspension of a fuel tax in order to placate the Yellow Vest protesters. Videos of the demonstrations, which began in mid-November, have captured both the extreme violence and acts of compassion that have emerged from the ongoing unrest.

Shirtless ‘piano man’ stares down a water cannon

Ironically, one of the heroes to emerge from the Yellow Vest protests is a vest-less (and shirtless) man who took on a water cannon.

As demonstrations heated up in Paris on November 24, one protester decided to exchange his vest for a pair of swimming goggles. A video of the shirtless Frenchman bravely enduring a thorough soaking from a water cannon gained notoriety, after what appeared to be a piano rolled through the already-dramatic scene. Actually, the wheeled wooden object turned out to be an old desk, but the scene still looked like it was lifted from an artsy fartsy French film.

Violence averted after cops remove helmets

The protests have not been devoid of compassion, however.

In the town of Pau, in southwestern France, police found a way to peacefully disperse protesters.

Footage posted on social media over the weekend shows a group of about two dozen police officers in riot gear removing their helmets while standing just meters away from demonstrators who were reportedly preparing to storm town hall. The crowd welcomed the peace gesture by applauding the police and singing the French national anthem.

Riot police curb-stomp a protester

Unfortunately not all of the videos to emerge from the protests are so whimsical or heart-warming. Footage purportedly taken at Rue de Berri, Paris – about a half a mile from the Arc de Triomphe – on Saturday shows a cowering protester being beaten by around ten riot cops.

In the video, the demonstrator is thrust to the ground by two officers, who then begin to kick and hit the curled-up man. Several other policemen then join in, using their batons and feet to beat the protester.

Urban warfare

A particularly gripping video, shot from a balcony by an onlooker, reveals the combat-like intensity of the clashes between the Yellow Vests and riot police. The footage shows a group of policemen attempting to stop the advance of a crowd of protesters.

https://www.rt.com/news/445527-yellow-vest-france-protests/

At first, only a few demonstrators engage the cops. However, the mob of Yellow Vests quickly rallies and completely overwhelms the group of police. With the cops making a hasty retreat, more protesters swarm in from a side street, hurling objects as they close in on the police. With projectiles being thrown in all directions, the onlooker abruptly pulls the camera away and begins to shout.

Rekindling France’s revolutionary spirit?

A standoff at the Arc de Triomphe led some to draw parallels between the Yellow Vest protests and France’s revolutionary past. Footage of the encounter between protesters and riot police near the iconic monument shows a man kneeling in front of the arch, with his hands stretched out.

He is then joined by another demonstrator, clad in a yellow vest, who waves two French flags as he stands behind the kneeling man. The display of flag-waving fearlessness was seen as some as a modern-day rendition of Eugene Delacroix’s classic revolutionary painting, ‘Liberty Leading the People’.

The migrant caravan trying to invade the USA is actually a DISEASE caravan

Screen Shot 2018-12-03 at 5.17.44 PM

by Natural News – December 3, 2018

Thousands of migrant invaders trying to rush the United States border via Mexico are reportedly now having to undergo medical treatment because they’re infected with life-threatening diseases, reveal figures just released from Tijuana’s Health Department.

Officials in Mexico say that at least one third of the illegal caravan’s 6,000 members are suffering from HIV, tuberculosis, or one or more of a number of other serious illnesses that are putting local populations at risk of infection.

“There are three confirmed cases of tuberculosis, four cases of HIV / AIDS and four separate cases of chickenpox,” explains a Tijuana Health Department spokesman to reporters.” At least 101 migrants have lice and multiple instances of skin infections, the department’s data shows. There’s also a threat of Hepatitis outbreak due to unsanitary conditions.”

Since there’s nowhere else to house these infected people, hordes of them are currently occupying the Benito Juarez Sports Complex near the San Ysidro U.S.-Mexico Port of Entry, even though the facility is only capable of handling a maximum of 1,000 people.

Illegal migrants are being told “No Spitting” following spate of bodily fluid biohazards

Many of these “poor women and children,” as America’s fake news media is calling them, have extremely poor hygiene standards. Thousands of mostly younger men are reportedly coughing and spitting so much around Tijuana that officials there have had to put up “No Spitting” signs as a deterrent.

Meanwhile, local governments in Tijuana are at their wits end and running out of money as they attempt to deal with this illegal invasion.

“We won’t compromise the resources of the residents of Tijuana,” stated Juan Manuel Gastelum, Tijuana’s mayor, adding that the city is having to spend roughly $30,000 per day keeping the place livable in spite of the invasion.

“We won’t raise taxes tomorrow to pay for today’s problem,” he added.

Treasonous CDC bringing diseased migrants into U.S. for “treatment” – on the taxpayer’s dime

Since repeated attempts by “bleeding heart” leftists to let these hordes of illegals into the U.S. has thus far failed, the corrupt U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is doing its part to destroy the country by actually flying these diseased criminalsinto the country and shipping them to CDC medical facilities for treatment.

Reports indicate that the CDC is taking the diseased migrants to Georgia, where they’re now receiving medical care paid for by U.S. taxpayers.

“I think we will see many more flights bringing communicably sick illegals from the border to various military bases and then on to hospitals in the area,” one report explains.

“As you know, our government has been flying in dangerously ill illegals into the U.S. for a long time … most especially from Africa. It is a classified program.”

Screen Shot 2018-12-03 at 5.22.07 PM

President Donald Trump has repeatedly stated that he will not allow this illegal caravan to enter the U.S., warning that its members include dangerous and violent criminals of the likes of MS-13 – not to mention other violent criminals from overseas.

“You’re going to find MS-13, you’re going to find Middle Eastern, you’re going to find everything,” the President stated.

“U.S. Border Patrol agents have arrested a member of the infamous Salvadoran MS-13 gang who admitted to authorities that he traveled with a caravan of Central American migrants who were hoping to qualify for asylum in America.”

The EU is getting desperate and urges all countries to sign dangerous UN Migration Pact

By Emma R.

EU Migration Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos urges all countries to sign the UN Migration Pact. As the agreement is “important” to the world.

On 10-11 December, the world’s countries are expected to sign the UN’s highly criticised Global Migration Agreement.

But several countries have already pulled out. In the EU there are at least six countries that will not sign. Among other things, they claim that the pact will promote even more immigration and pose a national security risk.

This weekend, Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said that the governments signing the pact present a “serious risk” to their citizens.

Avramopoulos does not understand the criticism, he tells German Die Welt.

And he therefore wants the countries to take the next few days to reflect and then choose to join the Globalist migration pact.

Those who reject the migration pact have not studied it enough, he argues and says that the agreement, on the contrary, is good for the world because, according to him, it will lead to “orderly” immigration across the world and stop human trafficking.

Like other proponents, he points out that the agreement is not binding. According to the Migration Commissioner, it is also a betrayal to Africa not to join the Pact.

Italy Passes Tough Immigration Law: ‘The Salvini Decree Is Law; The Good Times (For Migrants) Are Over’

By Chris Menahan

Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, the most popular politician in the country, is one step closer to making good on his campaign promise to deport 500,000 illegal migrants.

From Reuters:

The Italian government passed a law that clamps down on asylum rights and boosts funds for police, handing Interior Minister and right-wing League party leader Matteo Salvini his first major legislative win.

The lower house of parliament voted 396 to 99 late on Wednesday to pass the law championed by Salvini, who took office in June in a coalition with the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement.

The new law eliminates humanitarian grounds for granting protection to refugees — asylum that is not tied to political persecution or war. It also funnels millions of euros to law enforcement and anti-mafia administrators.

The new law eliminates humanitarian grounds for granting protection to refugees — asylum that is not tied to political persecution or war. It also funnels millions of euros to law enforcement and anti-mafia administrators.

“I’m willing to host women and children who are escaping from war … But all the others, no,” Salvini said on Thursday, referring to the new legislation. “I don’t want to be seen as an idiot.”

Italy will still award asylum to war refugees or victims of political persecution. But it will no longer hand out “humanitarian” asylum, which was given to those who had “serious reasons” to flee their home country – a category that has often included homosexuals fleeing harsh anti-gay laws in Africa.

More than 20,000 people, or 25 percent of those who sought asylum, got “humanitarian” protection last year, and the tens of thousands of others received it in previous years will now likely lose their legal status when their documents expire.

The League’s lawmakers celebrated the passage of the law on Thursday by unfurling a banner outside the lower house of parliament that read: “The Salvini decree is law; the good times (for migrants) are over.”

The law also allows for migrants to be stripped of their citizenship if they’re convicted of terrorism.

Parliament erupted in cheers after the law was

Il momento in cui il Decreto Sicurezza e Immigrazione è diventato legge!
Dedico questi applausi e questo entusiasmo a tutti voi, Amici, che come me ci avete sempre creduto. Ed è solo l’inizio.😊

“The moment the security and Immigration decree became law!” Salvini tweeted. “I dedicate this applause and this enthusiasm to all of you, my friends, who have always believed in me. And it’s just the beginning.” 

The League’s popularity is exploding:

Largely as a result of his hard line on immigration, the League, after winning some 17 percent in the March election, has doubled its support, rocketing past its 5-Star partner.

The League’s backing is now 34 percent, compared with 25 percent for 5-Star, a Noto Sondaggi poll published this week showed.

Two polls showed similar results:

Salvini also refused to sign onto the suicidal UN migration pact:

Salvini announced that he—like the Swiss—will not support the UN migration pact, which is due to be signed next month in Marrakesh, Morocco.

“We will not go to Marrakesh,” said Salvini to parliament, “I will not sign anything.”
