Well-dressed Chinese migrants with high-quality luggage stopped and processed after trying to cross border into California

A large group of nicely dressed Chinese migrants with impeccable luggage were photographed attempting to illegally cross the U.S.-Mexico border into California.

The migrants claimed that they were attempting to get into the U.S. after fleeing communist China. They can be seen wearing nice clothes and equipped with pristine luggage, unlike the majority of those illegally trying to get over the border.

The group was processed after the illegal attempt to cross the border.

The photographs of the migrants were reportedly taken near the town of Jacumba Hot Springs in San Diego County. The county is set to vote on Tuesday whether the county will spend $3 million in taxpayer money for migrant services. While those typically trying to get into the U.S. through the border come from Central and South America, there is now a trend of thousands from China attempting to get into the land of the free.

The Daily Mail reported that over the 2023 fiscal year, which concluded in September, U.S. Customs and Border Protection apprehended 24,048 Chinese citizens at the Mexico border. The number represents more than the ten previous years combined.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott ripped into President Biden's "open border" policies, suggesting that they present an "existential threat" to the U.S., according to Fox News Digital. He suggested that the nation should take on the border crisis in a similar way that he has around the Rio Grande, with buoys.

"It is extraordinarily dangerous because, first of all, as you point out, we have people from China coming here," Abbott said. "We also have people on the known terrorist watch list who are coming across the border. And so there's extraordinary dangers, calls to our country by Biden's open-border policies."

"And obviously, Biden is doing nothing about it. And that's why Texas has to step up and apprehend as many of these people as possible to make sure that they're not posing a threat to our country. But this is a very serious existential threat to our country caused by Joe Biden. And that's exactly why Texas is taking extraordinary steps to try to crack down on it."

Chinese migrants with hopes of reaching the U.S. have made use of Panama's Darien Gap jungle that has gradually become more popular, given that there are now social media posts and videos that provide tips on how to navigate it.

During the first nine months of the year, Chinese people were the fourth-largest nationality to be making use of the Darien Gap, after Venezuelans, Ecuadorians, and Haitians.

The United Nations has estimated that China will lose approximately 310,000 people through emigration strategies this year. This is dramatically higher than in 2012, when the number was just 120,000.
