[The Union is on an anti-gun binge, led by editor Don Rogers' editorial (here). More needs to be said about the hoaky poll they are conducting. Let's see if they publish a mea culpa on how easy it has been to subvert the poll's count as reported by our commenters. gjr]

Are you kidding me!
Known as the Viacrucis Migrante 2018, the caravan began on March 25 in the state of Chiapas and is expected to reach Tijuana within a month where the members of the group are expected to request refugee status from the U.S. government. The caravan is organized by the immigrant rights group Pueblo Sin Fronteras who have been posting updates about the caravan’s journey through Mexico.

Talk about a buzz kill –
“These chemicals are called cannabinoids because they act on the same brain cell receptors as the main active ingredient in marijuana,” IDPH explained, warning that the drug’s impact can be life-threatening. “Synthetic cannabinoid products are unsafe. It is difficult to know what’s in them or what your reaction to them will be.”
Users have reported a wide range of symptoms, from bleeding gums and bloody noses to blood in the urine. Women who are menstruating have also experienced a higher than average flow. Bleeding from the eyes and ears is also possible after use, IDPH said.

Darn it, now you’ve done it. I’m really fascinated by this piece of political theater and have been looking into it for a bit now. You can’t help but wonder if Mexico is pulling a Libya (at least Libya after Her Nibs had it’s head of state murdered via a broomstick up the jacksie) in terms of ceasing it’s duty as a cork in the bottle.
It might all fizzle out or it might be a crux point in the future of the West. If they do make it to the border, expect lots of anti-Trump Green Libertarian hullaballoo about saving these poor people just this once. Given the impotence of the West in dealing with border security, an ever increasing drama.
Shades of what the Spanish have to deal with.

Meanwhile behind the scenes…..
Gutless Sessions May not be so gutless nor worthless.
1) Sessions got pissed offf at the foot dragging at the FBI releasing infor and ordered the FBI to get it in gear. Double the agents, work two shifts, and get those requests to investigators out now. No more slow walking the investigations into Comey”s lies under oath among others.
2). Sessions never said he favored a 2nd Special Counsel investigating the Clinton corruption, from e-mail gate to the Foundation , thank goodness. That would just reset the clock. Sessions did order a federal prosecutor to check it out.
3) Sessions has ordered a federal prosecutor to check in the FISA abuses. Once the IG report is completed, the procesution begins.
4). CHECK THIS OUT: A Federal judge has reopened the Michael Flynn case. Odd, very odd. Flynn plead quilty, done deal, right? Cases closed, right? No. The judge is looking at the case and has ordered the FBI to turn over all evidence that the procesution had withheld from the court or used concerning investigating General Flynn. All of it. Guess it ain’t over afterall. Now, why would a judge be doing this?
Maybe Sessions is not the worse pick of the Trump Administration afterall. Who needs Special Proscutors when you can assign Federal prosecutors to look into leaks, Hillary’s extreme carelessness, the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation….
If weaponizing the DOJ and FBI don’t get ya, if giving conflicting accounts to Congress won’t get ya, leaking to the press will get you a one way ticket to The Big House, aka, The Slammer. Kinda like the ole perjury trap.
