Well, that money can now be sent to Mexico, as they will most likely need it.

The US gave Honduras $181m last year - not in liquid assets (to prevent theft) but in the form of training and resources.  Clearly, this help hasn't done any good, as the poorest of the poor are trying to leave.  So we either readjust our priorities and use the support for the poorest in those countries, or we cut the aid and use it for our own poor.

I prefer the latter.

Another, bigger migrant caravan is set to leave from Honduras next month

[quote]Garrido said this new, larger caravan will probably be joined by more people in El Salvador and in Guatemala, but she said they don’t plan on coming straight to the Tijuana-San Diego border, where resources are already stretched nearly to a breaking point.

“They will stay in the south of Mexico in Chiapas and Oaxaca. Their aim is to request work there,” she said.[/quote][/quote]

Short sighted trumpian logic with no concept of American soft power or Pax Americana. International relations is all zero sum transactional relations with you people. Oh well, it was nice when America lauded its intellectuals instead of hoisting its simpletons to the upper echelons of governance in furtherance of a kakistocracy.[/quote]
