Trucker Convoy Heading to Southern Border Hotspots to Protest Biden Border Crisis

Trucker Convoy Heading to Southern Border Hotspots to Protest Biden Border Crisis

Take Our Border Back Southern Border Convoy protests slated for Jan. 29 to Feb. 3.

Legal Insurrection readers may recall that in early 2022, Canadian truckers organized a massive”Freedom Convoy” that lined the streets of Ottawa and other cities and was the target of highly disgraceful actions by local authorities and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to break it up. The truckers were protesting the stringent and ludicrous covid restrictions that were impacting their ability to operate profitably and that were also detrimental to personal liberties.

Now, two years later, American truckers are organizing a huge convoy that will be heading to the southern border to protest the Biden administration’s complete lack of border control.

A convoy seeks to line the southern border with more than 700,000 vehicles and hold several rallies next week to demand action from the Biden administration.

The Take Our Border Back Southern Border Convoy will span from Virginia Beach, Va. to San Diego, Calif. and hold protests urging officials to enforce the Constitution’s amendments and halt human and drug trafficking across the border from Jan.29-Feb. 3.

The convoy aims to “send a message” to local, state and federal officials and law enforcement that they need to close the border and deport all illegal immigrants in its plan to “shine a spotlight” on open borders. Chambers claims Americans are “besieged on all sides” by evil “dark forces.”

“We have sustained continual bombardments of tyranny and have maintained our honor, prestige and esprit de corps,” Chambers asserted. “The enemy has demanded the surrender of Lady Liberty and her children. Tyrannical actors have tortured and oppressed without cause, without mercy and without reprieve.”

Of course, the leftist (Democrat) media is already painting the truckers as right-wing extremists. As an extra bonus, the administration propagandists are also smearing the participants as religious nuts.

A trucker convoy of “patriots” is heading to the U.S. border with Mexico next week, as the standoff between Texas and the federal government intensifies.
The organizers of the “Take Our Border Back” convoy have called themselves “God’s army” and say they’re on a mission to stand up against the “globalists” who they claim are conspiring to keep U.S. borders open and destroy the country.

. . . . Experts say that the Christian nationalist overtones in this rhetoric adds a dangerous dimension to an already fraught situation.

“When people believe that they are working on behalf of God, they might be willing to resort to relatively extreme measures,” said Ruth Braunstein, assistant professor of sociology at the University of Connecticut and author of “Prophets and Patriots: Faith in Democracy Across the Political Divide.” ”And so you have a politically volatile situation that could become much more so, in part because of this rhetoric.”

Painting taxpayers who are protesting woke policies and progressive agendas with the “right-wing extremist” paintbrush is the mainstream media’s only real move at this point. Of course, that brush stroke is going to be quite quite wide, given the level of support Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has achieved for his tough stance against Biden’s border insanity.

I wish the convoy a ton of good luck . . . and hope the weather cooperates for effective demonstrations against Biden’s border chaos.

As one of the final destinations is San Diego, I might have to do some on-scene coverage!

However, I will offer a word of caution to all who may participate in this event.

I offer this advise, from my Tea Party days: Look for infiltrators and absolutely document/photograph/video everything.

As I conclude this piece, I would like to provide an update to the Canadian trucker’s protest of 2022. A Canadian judge has ruled that the government’s use of the Emergencies Act to was unreasonable and unconstitutional.

Up to thousands of protesters clogged the streets of the capital of Ottawa and besieged Parliament Hill, demonstrating against vaccine mandates for truckers and other precautions and condemning Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government.

The act allowed authorities to declare certain areas as no-go zones. It also allowed police to freeze truckers’ personal and corporate bank accounts and compel tow truck companies to haul away vehicles.

Members of the self-styled Freedom Convoy also blockaded U.S.-Canada border crossings in protest. Police arrested 11 people at the blockaded crossing at Coutts, Alberta, opposite Montana, after learning of a cache of guns and ammunition.

In the decision released Tuesday, Federal Court Justice Richard Mosley said the invocation of the Emergencies Act led to the infringement of constitutional rights.

“I conclude that there was no national emergency justifying the invocation of the Emergencies Act and the decision to do so was therefore unreasonable,” Mosley wrote.

“When people believe that they are working on behalf of God, they might be willing to resort to relatively extreme measures,”

When people don’t believe in G-d and think that existence is nothing but the random, meaninglessness interactions of particles they are far more likely to resort to extreme and even monstrous measures. The proof is in all of human history.

    I am a high school English teacher in an urban Title I district. I believe with all my heart that the Lord has called me to serve Him here.
    He gives me the strength I need to get through each day.

    Yes, we servants of God are willing to go to extreme measures to serve Him and our Country.

      Some people on a mission from god, they say, will sacrifice anything of themselves, and feel willing, called, privileged even to do so.

      Other people on a mission from god, they say, will sacrifice anything of others, and feel joyful, commanded, rewarded, even to do so.

      Other differences between these groups are left as an exercise for the reader.

Less than a week without sufficient trucking across the country will be felt and heard.

    2 days would disrupt the supply chain sufficiently to cause shortages in about everything. With the drivers average age getting older and retirements increasing the pool of available workers is shrinking. Younger drivers don’t want to spend time away from home, don’t want to work 12-14hr days or nights at all and want twice what the average pay is. There is a crisis brewing that everyone will feel pretty soon and it will not be pretty.

“When people believe that they are working on behalf of Satan, they might be willing to resort to relatively extreme measures,”

Fixed it for you.

    We should be honest enough to admit that a great many hucksters throughout history have used the cloak of faith to advance an agenda seemingly at odds with central parts of their self proclaimed faith. I have always found it helpful to observe what people do as far more representative of their true beliefs than what people say they believe in.

The J6 narrative is getting shopworn and its credibility is plummeting.
The secret police need a new “atrocity” to stoke the TDS for election day.
Fool me twice, people…

Waiting for the Faux Patriot Front to show up for some more FBI False Flag shit.

We all know that there will be subversive guvmint agents creating trouble. I hope our people video everything, and keep themselves under control. Good luck to the brave souls who attend!! May the Lord’s blessings be upon you!

“The act allowed authorities to…”

I think the court finding means the protests — the “act” — did not “alllow” the authoritah to do what they did. Rather the reactionary authoritah were not permitted to do what they did under law.

Socially, when their protests inconvenienced their betters in the Canadian Imperial City, well, that cannot stand.

All disruptions are equally deplorable. Some disruptions are more deplorable than others.

The Biden DOJ will deem this an insurrection and persecute the leaders and anyone who contributes money to them or even posts favorably about them online.

There will be no 700,000 truckers in a convoy to anywhere.

This is a USIC false front. Beware.

Truckers could most effectively protest by not delivering anything to DC for a month. No truck enters the DC metro area for a full month. No gas, no groceries, no anything! The next month make it Philly, then NYC, Boston, Atlanta… The message will be heard and nobody is putting themselves into a bad situation.
