A migrant caravan of roughly 1,000-2,000 people departed Tapachula, Mexico, heading north toward the US after Democratic midterm victories.
A caravan called "God With Us" set out from Tapachula, near the Guatemalan border, on Tuesday, with a Chiapas state source estimating about 1,500 participants and NY Post citing around 2,000. Many migrants cited the Democrats' midterm wins as reason for hope of entering the US. Trump threatened to double tariffs on Mexico unless it stops the caravan, and Border Czar Tom Homan warned that illegal crossers would face prosecution and deportation.
