NEW CARAVAN GROWS: A new U.S.-bound caravan that formed in Honduras quickly grew to approximately 2,000 people Tuesday as it made its way toward Mexico ... Mexicans who live along the border towns that will likely be most affected were not very happy and took to the Internet to lash out against another wave of migrants. “Mexico is just like your country," one resident, Belem Gonzales said. “There are many problems and needs, and you’re not going to be much better off than you were in Honduras. Please don’t trust these manipulative agitators who are encouraging you to risk everything for nothing.”
As word of the new caravan's growth spread, back in Washington the opposing sides in the partial government shutdown continued to stand their ground, with no signs of compromise and no end in sight. President Trump said that a "drone flying around" will not stop the new migrant caravan, doubling down on his claims that "Only a Wall will work." Meanwhile, congressional Democrats rejected Trump's invitation to a lunch meeting at the White House to discuss border security.
