    I don't know where they all get the money to travel here, especially from Europe or other continents?? I mean we know about the drug-traffickers, where their money comes from but the numbers are staggering, and they can't all be because of drugs.

    I just hope and pray Texas doesn't have to stand alone without any help from other States :( I feel so ashamed at times because I don't feel I contribute anything to the fight, because I don't! All I do is get on here and scream about it. I don't even pray anymore. Basically just joined the rest of the bench-warmers :(

    They are being helped by organizations such as the Red Cross and others to travel. They are even given travel money to finance the trip. I don't know why this is being done unless it is simply to destroy the U.S. as a nation. @Martin Alonzo has posted that there are people inn the Dominican Republic recruiting people to make the trip.

    Can't believe anyone can stand against legal immigration to this country, or hate President Trump so much that they'll sell out their own country.

    I tried to get the Canadian Truckers money through go fund me but the powers that be started removing the monies and not sending it to where it was intended.
    I hope there are lots of places for donations to this cause. I wish I could send my taxes there instead of to the Federal Gov't.

    I did the same @Mary Stetler but mine went through ok. Same with the American Convoy, it went through as well as I recall. I would remember if someone stopped my funds. I donated through the one guy that did most of the videos from the start, a trucker/farmer that's very well known. On the Canadian, I can't remember how I sent it. But almost sure it was through Go Fund Me.

    I'll bet if every American gave their moneys to help others, the greedy "crooked" parts of our government would still be taking from us. Some probably say all Government is greedy. Maybe they are right. Hard to believe a government can stop us giving to a good cause, but hey, biden and other "elites" need their dough worse than we do right ;)

    When people wake up and know the government is the employee of the people. The people pay them elect them to do what the people want and not what they want. You have your employee telling you what to do. It is time to refuse to listen to them when they want you to do something. The whole system is corrupt and needs to change.

    Your are so right @martin. We were sleeping, or as some like to say, resting on our laurels, just enjoying all we had instead of paying attention to what goes on behind the closed door in government. For the love of money. I believe those that want this type of government are not the working class at all, they are the free-loaders wanting government to support them. Free everything to those that choose not to earn a living, that's apparently a thing of the past for some. Why work if the governments going to pay them not to? Everything from trans operations to abortions are payed for with hard-working people's tax dollars.

    Those that truly need help are not being helped, they're being enabled not to work for their dreams. Why else would people still be coming to America, some die trying to swim the river to cross our borders illegally, they see it's the land of the free "everything". biden and his crew are not the great hope of the world, they are inviting people in when they are not doing their jobs as they were elected to do. They don't want to help the US or the world, they only want money, and the power to control all of what they see as their "lessers".

    If America is still the land of the free and the home of the brave, I pray all wake up.

    Looks like several more states have joined Texas and Gov. Abbott in his effort to close the border. Things are getting interesting since a few democrat dumbasses are asking Biden to "seize control of the Texas National Guard." I'm thinking that secession doesn't sound so bad. I'd be happy to live in the sovereign nation of Texas.

    In case anyone is interested in donating to "Operation Lone Star" to help Texas secure the border, you can find the links on the Texas Gov website... https://gov.texas.gov/operationlonestar

    There are 3 different ways to donate; for the border wall construction, for border transportation which is providing busses to sanctuary states, or for border security which provides funding to the Texas National Guard.

    I am loving this "showdown" between Abbott and the white house. Since Biden doesn't have the mental acuity to "seize control" of his own bladder, I am hopeful that Texas will prevail!! Remember the Alamo!!! I do feel bad for the poor border control officers and Texas National Guardsmen who are caught in the middle.

    The democrats are busy trying to pass new laws instead of enforcing the existing ones. Typical; it gives them something to blame on the republicans but I hope the American people can see the truth.

    The Red states are supporting Texas, and some are sending reinforcements or other help; this is awesome ! From what i read, the court said that Biden can do something about the wire, but it did not say that Texas had to stop putting it up, so it is up to Biden to send people to take the wire down, not Texas.

    This is getting lots of attention, and every time i check Twitter news, more states are supporting Texas. I am of course happy that both Idaho and Alam are states that are standing in support of protecting our borders.
    Here is the latest list.

    On some vids the guardsmen said they felt good about doing this and were proud.

    True. But the poor border control agents get sent to take down the wire and I'm sure most of them don't want to.
