Son reprimidos al impedir su cruce a México Trump amenaza militarizar la frontera y suspender ayuda a Centro América Por Bruno G. Gallo “Las caravanas de inmigrantes no son un fenómeno nuevo”, recuerda la organización humanitaria Amnistía Internacional, “viajar en grupo es una manera de protegerse durante un trayecto por México que está lleno de peligros”.

Los estadounidenses que no están conformes con la administración del presidente Trump, deberán alistarse para votar por los candidatos no republicanos en las elecciones de noviembre. Esto debido a que ...
