As the Trump inauguration is now only six days away, illegal alien Mexicans are already on the run back to Mexico. At the US-Mexico border there is already a new station at the border crossing called Repatriaciones (repatriations).

On my last visit, I noticed there was a new station at the border crossing called Repatriaciones (repatriations). On this visit, we entered Mexico on December 19th, 2016, and I went to the same immigration station. The repatriations desk was actually in business and was taking “customers.” There were more changes as well. In fact, the counter where I obtain my permit had been moved and was actually right next door to the repatriations section. It is now called Repatriación Humana, which means “humane repatriation”. It’s subtitled México está contigo (“Mexico is with you”).
A sign in the Repatriación Humana section listed benefits for the repatriated: food and water, a document to prove they have returned, information and orientation to help them and temporary lodging.
Parts of the station had been re-organized and I noticed places where people could acquire a driver’s license and a CURP (Mexican identification document). It looks as though these are designed for repatriated Mexicans who may have been in the U.S. for a long time.
The Mexican government is already preparing to welcome home its countrymen. And though this is anecdotal, there seems to be at least some grudging respect for Trump here. I didn’t get into any arguments about Trump during this visit, but I heard a Mexican wish he had a leader who would stand up for Mexican jobs as Trump has for American jobs.
Buh-Bye!
