Pompeo holds the line: Caravans 'will not be permitted' to enter US

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Thursday that the migrant caravans headed toward the U.S. won't be allowed to enter, a prediction he made after talking to Mexico's foreign secretary.

"I have been in close contact with Mexican Foreign Secretary Videgaray and it has been one week since Secretary Nielsen and I had a constructive meeting with Mexican Foreign Secretary-designate Marcelo Ebrard to discuss the migrant caravans," Pompeo said in a statement issued on Thanksgiving.

"We have affirmed our shared commitment to addressing the current challenge," he said. "The caravans will not be permitted to enter the United States. There are real dangers to the safety and human rights of migrants from those who would prey on them."

What do you mean horse crap. Are you saying the immigrants will enter the US? I would like to see military action to keep them out. These people are not running from fear of their countries. They want the American dream now. They carry their countries flags with pride. Enough.

anyone carrying another country's flag as they flee that country, ought NOT to be allowed asylum anywhere.
