BURNED, USA.
In trucks, vans and RVs, hundreds of people arrived at the southern tip of the United States in a caravan to demonstrate against the immigration “invasion” that they say is affecting the country Take back our border.
“Join God’s Fight” was written on the body of one of the vehicles that arrived at a ranch in Quemado, a Texas town of 162 people, with rustic houses scattered in the middle of the valley through which the Rio Bravo, or Grande, flows, a natural border between the United States and Mexico.
The convoy consists of around 300 vehicles and is nicknamed God’s army by its creators began in Norfolk, Virginia and had previously made stops in Florida and Louisiana. Several trucks displayed flags in support of former President Donald Trump, the Republican favorite for the November presidential election.
They are expected to eventually make their way to Eagle Pass, Texas, to, they say, assist local authorities. Convoy organizers say their mission is to confront “globalists” who they say are plotting to keep the U.S. border open and allow migrants to enter illegally from Mexico.
Every month, thousands of migrants cross the Rio Grande and make long journeys from Central and South America in search of better living conditions in the United States, a central topic of debate in November’s presidential election.
And on the banks of this river the activists who call themselves decided to meet. We the people (We the peopleas the preamble of the US Constitution begins).
Under the motto Let’s restore our borderThese activists began convoys last week from various parts of the country to cities on the southern border to camp there this weekend.
“Migration at the border is out of control. “We are being invaded and we have to control what happens,” said Robyn Forzano, 43, who controls access to the ranch in Texas.
Supporting the Army of God
The anti-migrant caravan is supported by the said group God’s armya Christian organization that emerged in the 1980s.
The group is best known for its strong opposition to abortion, conservative ideas and now its anti-immigrant campaign.
However, more and more members of the caravan are adopting the name God’s armyas well as that of We the people to identify themselves, regardless of whether they are Christians.
