Those Other Caravans

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_American_migrant_caravans

The Central American migrant caravans,[1] also known as the Viacrucis del Migrante ("Migrant's Way of the Cross"),[2][3] are migrant caravans that set off during Holy Week in the spring of 2017 and 2018 of people from the Northern Triangle of Central America organized by Pueblo Sin Fronteras (People Without Borders).[4][5][6][7][8] There were also some smaller unrelated caravans in previous years, and a larger unofficial caravan in the autumn of 2018. 

If you read the whole article, you will find that this latest "unofficial" caravan is quite different from the previous ones, as none of them made a serious attempt force their way in or out of Mexico.  Of course our government could stop them if they make a serious attempt to do so.  My concern is that there will be some kind of wishy-washy attempt with our soldiers reluctant to fire on all those women and children, which is probably why the Caravanners brought them along.  Remember how the Hippy rioters used to put their "chicks up front"?  Verily I say unto you: If these guys get away with this, more will follow.

Last I heard, Social Security and Medicare were rapidly running out of money.  If McConnel and Ryan want to "slice into" them, they'd better hurry or there will be nothing left to slice into.
