Sad...
I have to wonder though, how do they know the child is Mexican, especially since he was with a Guatemalan woman and her child?
Was this an unaccompanied minor from Mexico? That's strange. Most unaccompanied minors seeking US asylum pass through Mexico, and are not from Mexico.
Most unaccompanied children arriving at the U.S. border are coming from the Northern Triangle region of Central America, which includes Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.

Still, sad, very sad.
How can we put an end to this?
No, it didn’t “elude” them. The plan was to build a wall and guard it, and have Mexico assist from their side. And it was working.
Yes yes. It is very sad to see some on here ponder all the political implications while a child is dead.

The father and daughter lie face down in the muddy water along the banks of the Rio Grande, her tiny head tucked inside his T-shirt, an arm draped over his neck.
The portrait of desperation was captured on Monday by the journalist Julia Le Duc, in the hours after Óscar Alberto Martínez Ramírez died with his 23-month-old daughter, Valeria, as they tried to cross from Mexico to the United States.

First, you do what Biden is doing. You send people down to see what the heck is happening that people are fleeing there own Country.
Second, you do what Biden is doing. You try and create facilities (that Trump dismantled) so you can handle these surges. Which by the way happened under all previous Presidents including Trump.
Third, you do what Biden did. Pass it off to Harris and let her worry about getting it together with people who understand the problem.
Fourth, YOU NEED TO SECURE THE BORDER. And that DOESN'T mean a 2000 mile wall that EVERYONE knows will be scaled or cut or tunneled under. It means more boarder patrol officers, electronic monitoring, drones, and YES some wall.
Fifth, fine the living daylights out of any business or person that hires an illegal without proper paperwork.
Sixth, fine any landlord who rents to an illegal.
Seventh, get CONGRESS to do their JOBS, and finally pass legislation to correct the problem of immigration. I personally don't care if you kick all illegals out, or keep all of them. But it's been decades, can we do something? We're the United States of America for God's sake.

Really biden is inviting this people to come to the US that is what the senile old man is doing, inviting everybody into the US with tax payer money to give them housing, hotels, free money and under their anti constitutional bill on voting a free vote.
China old senile biden invited all illegals to come to America, that means all, including sex traffickers, gangs, terrorist, drug cartels, and the children they were sold by their families to coyotes for money to bring them to the US so they can go missing after some pedophiles collect them on the detention centers.

Yep, it is. You own that one too.
