    Is it time for the scary phantom migrant caravans to make their fictional biannual trek again? My, time flies.

      (David Attenborough voice)

      Every two years, like Trekkies to a convention, the phantom migrant caravan reforms and embarks on a perilous pilgrimage to the US-Mexico border. Much like those Trekkies, many will not survive the arduous journey. Yet, their strength lies in numbers, allowing them to fend off against ravenous wolves, zealous ICE agents, and even cacti. Curiously, the caravan vanishes entirely in the middle of November, only to reform again two years later.
