President Donald Trump escalated his threats against a migrant caravan traveling to the U.S. border, labeling the effort an "invasion" and warning that "our Military is waiting for you!"
Trump tweeted Monday about the caravan of several thousand Central American migrants moving through Mexico, saying no one will be admitted "unless you go through the legal process."
Trump also said the group includes "Gang Members and some very bad people." He has made similar claims before without offering evidence.
The president has stepped up his focus on immigration in the days leading up to the midterm elections.
The Pentagon last week approved a request for additional troops at the southern border. The White House is also weighing additional border security measures.
