Left-wing agitators calling on migrants for second attempt to rush border crossing
Human rights groups working with the caravans in Tijuana, Mexico, have raised the alarm after discovering that the groups have been infiltrated by far-left agitators who are calling on migrants to make a second attempt at storming the US border.
The organization By Any Means Necessary (BAMN) is reportedly rallying migrants together to gather at one of the shelters on Saturday and then to make their way to the U.S. border.
They will then demand that the border crossing is opened for everyone or they will “shut it down.”
BAMN members have taken to social media to encourage other protesters and members of the migrant caravan along with posting the information on their website.

According to Breitbart, some of the pamphlets being distributed on social media by BAMN appear to show images of the violent clashes between caravan members and Mexican authorities that took place last month on that country’s southern border with Guatemala.

The march is expected to take place on the same day that incoming Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador or AMLO is set to take office.
The group claims to be on the ground in Tijuana and is asking for donations.

BAMN is agitating the caravan to march on the border. They are not on the ground and not working with the caravan organizers. At the same time, law enforcement is emptying the San Diego jails and telling the courts to anticipate 200-300 prosecutions/day. We smell a setup https://t.co/wcDuc1aO8I

In response to the social media campaign by BAMN, the human rights group Al Otro Lado sounded the alarm, claiming that U.S. authorities are preparing for possible clashes and, aside from a few agitators, BAMN does not have an official presence in Tijuana.
