Today is the day when what the Daily Mail calls a “massive convoy” of truckers will start making their way to three illegal alien “hotspots” across three states to shame Biden into doing something about the crisis at the border.
Can Biden actually be shamed into doing something to protect the American people? Probably not – but we appreciate the effort by the truckers nevertheless.
The last time we saw a trucker convoy in the states was in the spring of 2022 when they headed to DC in the “People’s Convoy” to protest against mask and vaccine mandates. They were so very scary that the Biden folks activated about 700 National Guard members to “control” things.
This week, the truckers will be showing up in Eagle Pass (Texas), Yuma (Arizona) and San Isidro (California) starting today for a four day “Take Back our Border” event with the main rallies on Saturday, Feb. 3rd.
It’s unknown if hundreds or thousands will show up – or how many everyday Americans will line up with them in solidarity, waving American and Trump flags.
The truckers are hoping to draw more attention to the border crisis and I’m sure they probably will on Fox News and conservative media outlets. Their efforts probably won’t show up at all on CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC or CBS though unless there is a fight or a confederate flag to show. Plus, they would have to fit the coverage in between all of their “Trump is the devil” wall-to-wall coverage.
The leftist media outlet Vice says, “A trucker convoy of ‘patriots’ is heading to the U.S. border with Mexico…as the standoff between Texas and the federal government intensifies. The organizers of the ‘Take Our Border Back’ convoy have called themselves ‘God’s army’ and say they’re on a mission to stand up against the ‘globalists’ who they claim are conspiring to keep U.S. borders open and destroy the country.”
Vice also says that all the talk about God and and the dark forces of evil adds a “dangerous dimension to an already fraught situation.”
Yes, Christian truckers are very dangerous. So is God. Dangerous to the leftists anyway.
So are all the “active & retired law enforcement and military, veterans, mama bears, elected officials, business owners, ranchers, truckers, bikers, media and LAW ABIDING, freedom-loving Americans” that are being asked to join the cause.
The organizers’ GiveSendGo site has raised over $119,000. They are calling the event a “Take Our Border Back Convoy” or “2024 Souther Border Convoy” and a “peaceful assembly.” Their website is here.
