“God’s Army” Trucker Convoy Nears Texas Border

NewsNation reports:

A convoy of protestors calling themselves “God’s Army” was in Texas Thursday as the group made their way to California. It’s day four of a two-week-long protest to raise awareness about the situation at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Supporters have traveled from all areas of the country — from states like New Jersey, Missouri and Georgia — to be part of the “Take Our Border Back Convoy,” which began in Norfolk, Virginia.

“We’re a nation of immigrants, but we have to have security at our border and know who’s coming in,” said Naomi Elliott, who joined up with the caravan in Tennessee.

Mediaite reports:

Stephanie Haines reported live and interviewed a man with a distinctly styled mustache. Much like the distinct style worn by Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. The man, Jayce Gilliam, was part of a Christian nationalist convoy of Texas residents that refer to themselves as “God’s army.”

“What I’d like to see at the border is people along it making sure that nobody’s coming across the river. That’s as simple as it gets. And when that’s done, then I think people will be a lot more, people will be a lot more happy, feel a lot safer,” said Gilliam.
