Ami Horowitz is an independent filmmaker who goes where the mainstream reporters often fear to tread, like quizzing Minnesota Somalis on their beliefs about sharia law versus American justice.
His most recent foray was tagging along with the Honduran caravan and asking relevant questions like their reason for trekking north to America. Answer: to get jobs and benefits, not escape any mythical persecution at home.
He appeared with Tucker Carlson on Tuesday, who wanted to know about the big money behind the caravan, which is evident from the massive mobile infrastructure supporting the Hondurans, some of which is from the United Nations agencies, as well as private freebies, funneled through Pueblos sin Fronteras, a radical open borders group that has admitted its goal with caravans is the “mass exodus” from Central America.
A multitude of services is available on the caravan for the illegal aliens which is training them to expect massive free stuff in America.
Horowitz has his own Youtube channel, and the caravan report includes a close-up view of invasive persons.
Of particular interest is the attitude of extreme entitlement the Hondurans have, that they are poor and therefore should be allowed to enter the United States, grab jobs from citizens and be eligible for all the social welfare programs that Americans pay high taxes to maintain.
In short, they come to plunder, not immigrate.
AMI HOROWITZ (5:00): This is one of the many many trucks and buses that are part of this caravan that are ferrying these guys from one location to another on the way to the United States. At the base camp there’s a mobile hospital stocked with enough pharmaceutical drugs to make Keith Richards blush. There’s also plenty of doctors and nurses attending to all the migrants.
(Addressing caravansters) America also has very generous benefits for people who live in America. Is that something you want to take advantage of?
ORANGE SHIRT HONDURAN: Yes, of course.
BLUE SHIRT: Yes it is. To improve our life through those benefits.
WOMAN WITH KIDS: I’m traveling with one of my boys and my kid here. But I’ve having problems with him, he is sick.
HOROWITZ: Do you think your son will have better treatment in the United States as opposed to Honduras?
WOMAN WITH KIDS: With God’s help, I think he will. [ … ]
HOROWITZ: There are probably several billion people in the world who are seeking a better life. Do these migrants think that all of them should be allowed to enter the US?
(Asks Hondurans) Should America let in anybody who wants to come in?
TAN SHIRT HONDURAN: That is what we want.
“ROCKSTAR” HAT: All of us here have lots of needs.
BLUE POLO: Truth be told, yes.
SHORT-HAIRED YOUNG GUY: Well … yes.
PLAID-SHIRT MAN: Yes, of course. Because it’s people in poverty with lots of needs. We are running away from the difficult reality in our lands.
Once upon a time, young dissatisfied men in Latin America might join a revolutionary group to fight for a better life. But now it’s just easier to go mooch off Americans.
