Protest Convoy Headed to Southern Border Is Calling Itself an 'Army of God'

[BigOleDummy]

"A trucker convoy of “patriots” is heading to the U.S. border with Mexico next week, 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.

“This is a biblical, monumental moment that’s been put together by God,” one convoy organizer said on a recent planning call. “We are besieged on all sides by dark forces of evil,” said another. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God. It is time for the remnant to rise.” (The remnant, from the Book of Revelation, are the ones who remain faithful to Jesus Christ in times of crisis)."

2. GOD does not agree...............................

[TwilightZone]

3. That's some weapons-grade delusion right there.

We have some of these clowns here in Central Texas, congregated in places like New Braunfels. I wouldn't be surprised if they're some of the ringleaders. They're the same clowns who threatened Biden campaign busses in the prior election cycle.

[underpants]

12. There's lots of money to be made

Bannon grifted these people for millions with his wall scam. I’m sure the Proud Boys/3%ers pocketed some good money. Let alone people monetizing on X and Tik Tok.
Hell the NRA fleeced these people for decades.

[Walleye]

15. Yeah, it's a shame they have had to live through this terrible Biden economy

[eShirl]

4. That's rather presumptuous of them.

[MagickMuffin]

5. Sad thing is they are NOT peacemakers, but merchants of death

This Texan wants them to stay the fuck away from my state!

[LiberalFighter]

6. I hope something goes wrong for them.

[Easterncedar]

7. Peacemakers?! Like the gun, I guess

This isn’t the first time they’ve done this. It didn’t solve anything last time either.

[RockRaven]

8. They are welcome to a People's Crusade(1096) outcome if they wish it...

I wonder, who is their Peter the Hermit?

[Walleye]

16. More like a children's crusade I think

[Dulcinea]

9. I wonder if these morons know...

...that "Hezbollah" in Arabic means "Party of God." Just sayin'...

[Midnight Writer]

10. Tell them their Savior returned, but was drowned after getting entangled in barb wire at the border.

11. Abbott is responsible for this-just like Trump is responsible for Jan 6. He needs to call off his

troops before someone gets seriously hurt or killed.

[triron]

13. I'm sure Abbott is persuaded by this argument. (Sarcasm)

[Qutzupalotl]

14. The same God who said to welcome the stranger?

[Buns_of_Fire]

17. "...besieged on all sides by dark forces of evil..."

He left out "sapping and impurifying our Precious Bodily Fluids."

Not much to go wrong here, no sir...

[Walleye]

18. I'm sure the Maga could convince people to hate Jesus Christ

After all, they have convinced people to hate Joe Biden

[PSPS]

19. These people are not wealthy. Who is paying them?

20. 25 states with Republican governors sign letter supporting Texas in border control fight: What to know

https://news.yahoo.com/25-states-republican-governors-sign-173041938.html
Almost all of the U.S. Republican governors have signed on a statement backing Texas Gov. Greg Abbott in his bitter fight against the federal government over border control.

The statement released Thursday on the Republican Governors Association website criticized the Biden Administration and said the state of Texas has the constitutional right to defend itself. This week, Texas officials and the Department of Homeland Security sparred over barbed wire along the Rio Grande. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that federal agents can cut through the razor wire the state installed to deter people from crossing.

“We stand in solidarity with our fellow Governor, Greg Abbott, and the State of Texas in utilizing every tool and strategy, including razor wire fences, to secure the border," the letter, signed by 25 Republican governors. "Because the Biden Administration has abdicated its constitutional compact duties to the states,


Like I've been saying this is not going to end well for ANYBODY unless someone can find a medium ground
