    loading Canadians illegally crossing the northern border in droves
    bringing crime and drugs and human trafficking into the PNW (well, I
    guess a couple of those things are already there but...)and sucking on

    Maybe governor Abbott should send Governor Kotex a few of our illegals.
    They would blend right in with all the druggie and homeless people you

    "On Monday morning, the organizers of the Take Our Border Back convoy
    kicked off their road trip to the Texas?Mexico border in Virginia Beach. Though they claimed that up to 40,000 trucks would be joining, only 20 vehicles made up the convoy as it rolled into Jacksonville, Florida, 14
    hours later. The promised support had not materialized?not a single
    truck showed up, tires were reportedly slashed, participants got lost,
    and paranoia struck the group. In short, the convoy was a complete mess.

    The convoy was organized last week as a show of support for Texas
    governor Greg Abbott and his decision to defy the federal government and President Joe Biden about the installation of razor wire along the Texas?Mexico border in Eagle Pass, Texas. While at least one organizer initially said they planned to hunt down migrants along the border in collaboration with sympathetic members of law enforcement, the group
    appeared to walk back that assertion on Monday, issuing a statement that

    to Quemado, a tiny town in Catron County, Texas. The group?s website, however, still lists the route of the convoy as ?Virginia Beach, VA, to
    Eagle Pass,? and members of the planning group on Telegram still say
    they are going to the Texas border.

    The organizers also repeatedly stated that the event was peaceful,
    though online chats in a related Telegram group show members discussing ?exterminating? migrants. A known white nationalist who was kicked out
    of the People?s Convoy in 2022, Ryan Sanchez, is among those most active
    in the group. Sanchez was previously a Marine Corp reservist who says he
    was kicked out after he was reported to have been demonstrating

    2017, which led to the death of one counterprotester."
