TAPACHULA, MEXICO — Mexican immigration authorities have broken up two small migrant caravans headed to the U.S. border, activists said Saturday. 

Some migrants were bused to cities in southern Mexico, and others were offered transit papers. 

The action comes a week after U.S. President-elect Donald Trump threatened to slap 25% tariffs on Mexican products unless the country does more to stem the flow of migrants to the U.S. border. On Wednesday, Trump wrote that Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum had agreed to stop unauthorized migration across the border into the United States. Sheinbaum wrote on her social media accounts the same day that "migrants and caravans are taken care of before they reach the border." 

Migrant rights activist Luis Garcia Villagran said the breaking-up of the two caravans appeared to be part of "an agreement between the president of Mexico and the president of the United States." 

The first of the caravans started out from the southern Mexico city of Tapachula, near the border with Guatemala, on November 5, the day Trump was elected. At its height it had about 2,500 people. In almost four weeks of walking, it had gone about 270 miles (430 kilometers) to Tehuantepec in the state of Oaxaca. 

In Tehuantepec, Mexican immigration officials offered the tired migrants free bus rides to other cities in southern or central Mexico. 

"They took some of us to Acapulco, others to Morelia, and others from our group to Oaxaca city," said Barbara Rodriguez, an opposition supporter who left her native Venezuela after that country's contested presidential elections earlier this year. 

Rodriguez said by telephone she later caught a bus on her own to Mexico City. 

The second caravan of about 1,500 migrants set out on November 20 and made it about 140 miles (225 kilometers) to the town of Tonala, in Chiapas state. There, authorities offered a sort of transit visa that allows travel across Mexico for 20 days. 

Sheinbaum has said she is confident that a tariff war with the United States can be averted. But her statement — the day after she held a phone call with Trump — did not make clear who had offered what.

Mexico had better close their southern border. They are going to have to keep all these illegals when we close ours.

That's the difference between a business man and a career corrupt politician.

Career Politician's, What skill do they have. None. Give me a Businessman or Military guy anytime. People who have done nothing but politics their whole life are total retarded assholes. They only do one thing. Line their pockets.

wow, that didn't take long...

The Pedo-Prog Democratics are furious.....they had little kids they were sex trafficking to their party leaders....their really pissed off they could use those little kids


I know...a little dramatic but probably a lot more accurate than people might think 

amazing. dumb usa peasants have no clue of solutions.

What products do we buy from Mexico anyway? Their beer is good, but I could do just fine without it. Now Italian and German beer...that's a different story. 

Once Trump is sworn in...expect to see ICE grow [just like Biden grew the IRS with 87,000 new agents].
Expect to see 1000s of black SUVs with US Gov plates driving all hours of the day and night into residential and commercial construction sites, orchards, ranches, farms, factories, warehouses, repair shops, drug handling ops, etc.

Expect to see their employers hauled off in handcuffs..many of who are Ex Cons  with enough priors to put away for a long long time.

Be real careful placing all that faith Trump is on your side. I don't see that in his behavior. Trump is still the lesser evil, not a correction yet.
