PETA calls out Donald Trump Jr. on billboard as National Guard troops arrive in Laredo


PETA's new billboard located off Texas Loop 20 in Laredo calls out Donald Trump Jr.


LAREDO -- As National Guard troops begin to arrive in the Gateway City following an order by President Trump, animal rights organization PETA has decided to share its thoughts on the matter in a huge way.
