'God's Army' Convoy Raises Over $138K for Anti-Migrant Journey to Texas Border

Despite significant fundraising, turnout for the convoy appears low amid escalating tensions over immigration enforcement between Texas and the federal government.

  • The 'Take Our Border Back' convoy, organized by a group calling themselves 'God's Army', has raised over $138,000 for its journey to the Texas border in an effort to stop migrants crossing.
  • The convoy, which has been widely covered in the media, set out from Virginia on Monday, aiming to pass through different border states before reaching Texas.
  • Despite the significant amount of funds raised, video footage from the convoy's first day suggests a low turnout, with only a handful of people and vehicles visible.
  • The group has faced criticism and conspiracy theories, with some suggesting the convoy could be a 'psyop' or 'honeypot' trap laid by the federal government to coax people into committing violence.
  • The convoy's journey comes amid escalating tensions between Texas and the federal government over immigration enforcement, with Texas Governor Greg Abbott asserting the right of states to defend themselves in the face of what he has declared to be an 'invasion'.
