President Trump heightened his rhetoric over the caravan of Central American migrants wending their way to the U.S., threatening to permanently shut down the southern border.
“Mexico should move the flag waving Migrants, many of whom are stone cold criminals, back to their countries,” Trump tweeted. “Do it by plane, do it by bus, do it anyway you want, but they are NOT coming into the U.S.A. We will close the Border permanently if need be. Congress, fund the WALL!”

The harsh message comes one day after Border Patrol agents used tear gas on migrants who broke through Mexico’s police lines at the Tijuana border and tried to enter the U.S.
Authorities temporarily closed the border crossing between Tijuana, Mexico, and San Diego, one of the busiest in the nation.
