A New Migrant Surge at the Border, This One From Central Africa


By Manny Fernandez



    June 16, 2019


SAN ANTONIO — For months, a migrant-services center blocks from the Alamo in downtown San Antonio has been packed with Central American families who have crossed the border in record-breaking numbers.

But in recent days, hundreds of migrants from another part of the world have caused city officials already busy with one immigrant surge to scramble on a new and unexpected one. Men, women and children from central Africa — mostly from the Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola — are showing up at the United States’ southwest border after embarking on a dangerous, monthslong journey.

Their arrival at the border and at two cities more than 2,100 miles apart — San Antonio and Portland, Me. — has surprised and puzzled immigration authorities and overwhelmed local officials and nonprofit groups. The surge has prompted Portland to turn its basketball arena into an emergency shelter and depleted assistance funds meant for other groups. Officials in both cities have had to reassure the public that fears of an Ebola outbreak were unfounded while also pleading for volunteer interpreters who speak French and Portuguese.

Just keeps getting gooder and gooder,doesn't it?

I wonder if any of them have AIDS?

I also wonder where these people who were eating insects to survive came up with the thousands of dollars necessary to pay bribes and get transportation to come here?  Why,if I were the suspicious sort I would suspect Soros and his friends are doing the financing,in hope of starting a Civil War here.

AIDS and possibly Ebola.  Civil War, perhaps.  They are encouraging an upheaval for sure and the ONLY way that U.S. citizens are going to win against our government giving the sovereignty of our country away is for U.S. citizens to stand together; Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Asians, etc.,  Will it ever happen?  Unlikely as the leftists have promoted racism within our country.  ALL U.S. citizens must stand together IF we expect our Republic to survive.

Perhaps this is the message that Trump and the GOP needs to reverberate loud and clear; U.S. Citizens MUST come together and DEFEAT the radical left.

It IS the right message,but it seems like every time conservatives try to use it,the media distorts what they are saying and starts screaming "The racist Republicans are trying to put minorities out into the streets to starve to death!" instead of reporting accurately.

Then again,anyone who doesn't understand that basic truth these days just hasn't been paying attention.

Come to think of it,one of the people who probably paid less attention to it than anyone else is now aware of this,and he just happens to live in a Big White House at the moment. When he speaks,the media HAS to listen or just quit pretending. Trump IS the right man to get this message out.

If the country is ever to be reclaimed from the left, and if multiculturalism is to be repulsed and defeated, only one of the groups you mentioned above is the one that must coalesce and do "the doin'" ...

And there you have it.  We REALLY got lucky when we needed it the most. Trump knows they all hate him anyhow,so he has nothing to lose by speaking up and pointing out the lies and hypocrisy.  There is not a conventional career politician in the country that could do and say the same things. Or that would,even if he or she could be in that position.
