Always has.

The Gawd-Awful Truckers can thank Joe. They were stuck on stupid under Trump’s petroleum price spikes.

In WNC now. Diesel is $3.68. And we are as far away from distribution hubs as you can be. A dozen free range organic eggs, $3.10.
The horror😱
Latino workers in construction, roofs, landscaping and apple orchards are the only ones out there in the area. Yards crews are in the multiple dozens and every one works their asses off and do perfect work.
But working class AmurKKKans just ain’t feeling it at their kitchen tables.
And this is in Meadows and Cawthorn’s district, with trump flags everywhere. All hero’s to these benefactors of prices and Latino workers.
But “God Guns and Guts” are the most popular tee shirts and hats, MAGA wear second.

FLED HIS HOME to another country?

I guess irony is wasted on the stupid...........

that in all probability many of their parents, grandparents, or great grandparents were once immigrants fleeing from famine, poverty, dictators and war.

They themselves wouldn't be here, if many of the harsh policies they're demanding now would have been in place when their families first came here. My ancestors came from Ireland and Italy, and I wouldn't even be alive if they had been refused entry because there were a number of Irish-Italian marriages in my family, and if they hadn't been in the U.S. they likely would have never met. I never forget that or take it for granted.

For theirs is the kingdom of hell.

(At least one would hope so.)

...and probably nearly everything else.

You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God. (Leviticus 19:34)

Just feel it, based on stuff their racist grandpa once told ‘em.

“Reading is for chumps” he used to say, in his wise old klansman tone.

What "conflict?" Do you mean the traffic jams because of the trucks and the slavering MSM convoy of "live from the scene" camera trucks on their motorized cletus safaris dutifully following their every move for clicks/ratings/outrage?

The truckers themselves are an annoyance. Their presence merely ratchets up the tension along the border. Are they going to mount an armed trucker rebellion? No, of course not. But is has the potential to complicate a de-escalation or resolution to the Greg Abbott/TNG situation.

Just made my day

"That's what Green Berets do. Unconventional warfare is our bread and butter. Now we're doing domestic internal defense," Chambers said.
"What gets us to the enemy quickly is to find, fix, and finish, exploit, analyze, and disseminate," Chambers said, referring to a military process. "That's what we did in Syria when we took out ISIS really quick."

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/a-convoy-calling-themselves-god-s-army-plans-to-head-to-the-texas-border-to-stop-migrants-from-entering-the-us/ar-BB1hliQG?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=2c00a2a6a5b64a6ab8650ce5c102e4ff&ei=25

orange fat face bozo pulled our troops and gave northern Syria to Erdogan and our military base there to Putin. Erdogan chased the Kurds out of their homeland. So Pete Chambers can stick his green beret right up his ass.

...recent times. It got very little coverage back then and virtually none since. Just my opinion, but I think it is the nadir of Trump's excreable foreign policy and you re one of the few who seem to remember it.

I'm still angry about what happened to the Kurds! One more reason to dislike tfg and erdogan! As far as Pete Chambers, the lieutenant colonel who says he was a Green Beret, is nothing but a sleaze ball!

Shooting US border agents is never a good idea.

We know too many of Trump’s followers are itching for a chance to bully and even kill.
Trump is telling them to go to the border

I would hope they don't run across graduate students doing field work in desert ecology, for example.

These a holes would probably want to shoot the brown skinned Jewish man!

They would be 'rolling coal' at the brown man

A Palestinian Jew.

"It's one of those goddamn Mexicans! Get him, boys!"

What could go wrong?

Would get what they are begging for. A real war against just them where they find out that their "God" doesn't block bullets, missiles, and bombs. Let them SEE their "brothers in Christ" blown up with pieces spread all around. They'd wet their goddamned pants.

Officials here aren't particularly impressed by the god of assisted living and would most likely confiscate the rigs of any asshole who tried to block the interstate or a border crossing.

The god of assisted living is the one who needs a bunch of ignorant mediocre males to do all his work for him, he can't do a thing for himself.

Oh, they could get their rigs back once they paid the towing fee, impound fee, lot rent fee, and traffic fines. The god of assisted living won't do that for them, either.

You think the Trump Boat Rally was a disaster? Just wait.

And then and there they took a notion
And kicked Columbus back to the ocean

"Damn people of no color"

Human wave attacks to wipe Pizarro, deSoto and Columbus out on the beach would have been less costly in lives

Matthew 25:

44Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or as a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?’ 45Then He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it for one of the least of these, you did not do it for Me, either.’ 46These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

49 Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.

Wait.

So Americans are going to fight Federal forces now? Um, isn't that called an insurrection?

This shit is reminding me of the Bundy fiasco where Obama did nothing. It only emboldened this faction of assholes.

... be cast out from my lands, and should they not leave voluntarily, my people will deal harshly with them."


If this is not heresy, there is something seriously wrong with your religion.

and crowd fund it.

"Kill a Commie for Christ". Of course I get 50% of the take. Putey is exempt because our right wing nuts support our leader Donnie's boss.

Not mentally ill
..theyre toxic

These people know what they are doing. They are cognizant of and therefore responsible for their actions. They have control over what they are doing. They just choose the path of evil and racism.

This who they are, no need to explain it away as if they have a mental health problem that has to be treated with medical science.

While they say to their preacher that Jesus is too 'woke' and when can they start killing us.

Hypocrites get their own level of Hell according to Dante'

Riled up by the abu$ive Republican leadership on a con$tant ba$i$?

If only there was a clue to the leader$hip motive$.

$o puzzling!

NOT!

decent homes for their families too. Sure, some of them may be illegals, but there is a path forward on this issue too, that they can be 'legal' too, eventually.

These conveys, and those such as "God's Army" are nothing what God, IMHO, visualized, for these poor, hungry, homeless migrants. I'm almost embarrassed for the statue of Liberty located in NY to be here any longer. After all, we all are immigrants too (for the most part, our native sons, our Indian friends were here long before all of us).

Maybe sanity will come soon, but I wonder sometimes about the hate and such, inspired by tRUMP and his ilk.

is also on the border? They probably think it's part of Mexico.

fucking idiots.

.... I think GiveSendGo is better called TakeTheMoneyAndRun.

Drive around and pick up every brown person they see walking on the road?

More shit-for-brains vigilantes.

More losing.

However many truckers itching for a fight so they can wave their metal penises around.

(I am guessing three should do it.) Three Apaches with 20mm Vulcans using 3d imaging and sighting.

Locate the convoy on a barren stretch of road. (No houses for miles, and no other vehicles around.) Say three minutes tops.

No more problem.

And, there would be zero casualties. Just several piles of scrap metal with dazed beerguts sitting in the middle. Possibly holding a steering wheel. Now that is if they don't do something monumental... like try to return fire... because that would not go well for any of them.

(Yes, today's military aircraft can literally remove the vehicle out from under you if they so desire. Of course, since there will only be a bunch of sunburnt rednecks whining about being shot up from 'somewhere' and since there will be no evidence (that will be made sure of), the next group of half drunk idiots will remember what happened. Regardless of who they might want to blame it on, they WILL remember. But, this is just my opinion on the matter. Except about the Apaches. That part is true.)

The 20 mm is carried on the Cobra which the Army no longer uses but is still used by the Marines.

Shame this fuckhead forgets this.

Not that this "army" are familar with anything Jesus taught.

Someone in this convoy is going to die. It’ll probably be by traffic accident but someone is going to die.

MTG will file articles of impeachment against President Biden for not doing enough to…well, make sure Private Schmuckatelli of God’s Army knew how to drive a 12-foot-high top heavy RV on soft sand.

Trump will use this traffic accident to make 500 attack ads.

The right wing media will talk about this incessantly.

Trump will still lose the election, and he’ll still send 5000 people to attack the Capitol on 1-6-25.

He may urge 5K to go, but they will stop in their tracks a mile away.
There will be an entirely different security set up the next time.

they'll get lost. Only one or two roads to where they're going, but they'll get lost.

on their tacky website!

Routes are posted, too. Also someone inserted "peaceful assembly" in their logo - it's the wrong font and doesn't really fit so I expect it's an add-in.

Visit incog.

What will they do when and if they find out?

"The alien who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God."
Leviticus 19:34

"‘Cursed is anyone who withholds justice from the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow.’ Then all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’"
Deuteronomy 27:19

"For if you truly amend your ways and your doings, if you truly act justly one with another, if you do not oppress the alien, the orphan, and the widow, or shed innocent blood in this place, and if you do not go after other gods to your own hurt, then I will dwell with you in this place, in the land that I gave of old to your ancestors forever and ever."
Jeremiah 7:5-7

"You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the aliens who reside among you and have begotten children among you. They shall be to you as citizens of Israel; with you they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel."
Ezekiel 47:22

"Thus says the Lord of hosts: Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another; do not oppress the widow, the orphan, the alien, or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another."
Zechariah 7 -10

Trump makes everything worse.

...send our military to meet God's Army and send them back to God where they belong...

...

They seem to have ample time to sit around waiting for a chance to drive somewhere and have a public hissy fit.

Offices in Washinton or Mar Lumbago.

These people’s actions are not only disgusting but run counter to what’s in the Bible. If there’s a Hell, these guys are risking damnation.

Ezekiel Chapter 16 verses 49 and 50 are rather explicit as to why the Big Guy flamed Sodom. It wasn’t because of “hommasexshuls”, but because He was steamed about their selfishness and their hostility towards migrants and the poor.


Other verses:

Exodus 22:21

Exodus 23, verse 9

Leviticus 19: 33, 34

Ezekiel 47: 22, 23

Deuteronomy 24: 14-15, 17

(Don’t take my word for it, look it up at the sources yourselves).


I would add that the right-wing religious reactionaries who’ve climbed onto the immigrant-bashing bandwagon are tip-toeing around these very explicit verses and trying to ignore them.

and how you are to treat the foreigner being pulled behind.

How many of them have trucks and can get the time off? How many of them have trucks and can get the time off and have the money to waste on trucking across the country without a specific goal?

I'll wait before I let specious media reports make me hysterical about this one.

not feed and clothe them like Jesus instructed us to do. Maybe we should have billboards along
highways close to the border that read........I never said to kill the poor & hungry, with a picture
of Jesus.

Are these trucks big rigs? Pick 'em ups? RV's?

Who are these "truckers"

Any professional driver I know doesn't want to lose the otr hours for such nonsense.

Owner operators? Probably not, being that they have to carry around $1M per truck in insurance just to operate - doubtful they would want to lose the time on the road, not make a payment and put their entire operation in jeopardy.

Who are these "drivers" that have access to vehicles and can afford to come off the road to hoot an' holler in a parade?

Who is really paying for all of this?

Vitriolic hatred is either explosive or caustic, I forget which.

Deuteronomy 10:19:"You shall also love the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt."

Matthew 25:35: "For I was hungry and you gave me food. I was thirsty and you gave me drink. I was a stranger and you invited me in." (This is the chapter about the sheep and the goats.)

Hebrews 13:2: "Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing so, some people have shown hospitality to angels."

are concerning how we are commanded to treat the stranger (foreigner)? As the posts on this thread show, there are a LOT of them, and they are explicit, a lot more than the two or three verses that anti-abortion fanatics interpret fast and loose to “justify” their cause. What’s more, these verses aren’t just in the Old Testament, but the New Testament as well. Right-wing “literalists” and “inerrantists” falling over themselves to support this cruel, ungodly campaign against the poor and desperate must practice a lot of denial, self-deceit, and pretzel-bending “logic” to push this stuff.

These things are done by those who'd rather listen to powermongers than read their Bibles.

Matthew 25: 41- 46
41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’ 44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’ 45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’ 46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

there has been no rallying point named, seen, or MSM coverage of such an event.

I can't say that the ICC, FBI, or Homeland Security are not taking note. Other than a couple of RW/Qanon influencers on the internet no other evidence exists that this is a thing.

I'm calling it a grand empty gesture. Film at 11.
***************************************************************************************************************
Update: The original source site on this topic, Vice, included the following under the headline used for the OP:

The organizers current plan is for the convoy to depart Virginia Beach on Monday and snake down through the southeast, stopping over in Jacksonville, Florida before making its way to several stops along the border. The convoy will then split up for separate rallies on Feb. 3, one near Eagle Pass, Texas, a second in Yuma, Arizona, and a third in San Ysidro, California.

A group of six patriot-world influencers, including Kim Yeater, who runs a self-empowerment self-help group and an anti-voter fraud group, started organizing the convoy around a month ago. “God’s army is rising up,” she said on the planning call. “We all have been chosen for this time.”

The convoy was originally intended to send a message to the Biden Administration: “Secure Our Borders.” Its website calls on “all active & retired law enforcement and military, veterans, mama bears, elected officials, business owners, ranchers, truckers, bikers, media and LAW ABIDING, freedom-loving Americans,” to join the cause.

What Greg Abbott and Fox News are doing to the border is wrong. It's criminal. It's murderous. It's cruel and inhumane. All to satisfy some bullshit conspiracy theory floating around social media. Just... argh.

These awful people are as far from Jesus as you can get.

what will they find?.... few people wandering around, and an empty desert...

If they block roads, they will have their rigs towed and confiscated.... hope they enjoy paying the hefty fines to get them back.....

Most don’t own their trucks and most can’t afford to sit idle for weeks at a time. Their bosses will not tolerate them refusing loads and will blackball them if they make waves. Most that do own their trucks may be able to park them for a short while but they sure as hell can’t afford to drive them around empty with the cost of diesel being what it is.

Finally - I can’t think of a harder way to make a living in these United States. My prediction is - this will mostly be a non-event with just enough violent MAGA thugs breaking the law to make a few headlines.

He is waiting for his master order to send in the Queen Beret and take out the drug cartel

voice are they hearing. Hearing voices is a sign of schizophrenia that is covered by Obamacare.

Destroying everything in their path.
