Yea what happened to that

Fox News Claims 'Largest Ever' Migrant Caravan Gathering In Mexico June 7th

Reuters said that at least 6,000 people left the Mexican city of Tapachula on Monday with the goal of reaching the U.S.

Well it google maps says walking should take 14 days

It’s been 21 days since they ran the story


A week ago, no one on Fox News mentioned the word “caravan,” according to the Internet Archive’s database of closed captioning from the network. Then on June 3 the word was mentioned once, with reporter Griff Jenkins telling anchor Bret Baier that “the largest caravan ever to depart Tapachula” was expected to leave that Mexican city Monday — that is, June 6 — headed for the United States.
The network was off to the races. “Caravan” came up seven times Saturday, 26 times Sunday and 58 times Monday. Another wave of Fox News migrant-caravan coverage had begun.
We’ve been through this before. On at least four previous occasions, Fox News has amped up coverage of groups of migrants gathering in Mexico or Central America to travel to the United States. And on at least three of those four prior occasions, the trigger was more obviously politics than policy.

large numbers of migrants headed to the United States. Marching along like an invading force. Never mind that the caravan identified by Jenkins — the largest ever, he said — is made up of 11,000 people. That’s less than 5 percent of the number of people stopped at the border in April.


Yep the Fox viewer live on a diet of lies and outraged 24x7

Who told you that unborn babies feel no pain?> Is that where we should all be getting our news?

Who told you that Republicans are celebrating those immigrant deaths? Should we all get our news from that lunatic?

Worry about your ignorance.
