A FIRST LOOK at the trucker convoy headed to the border

The southern border has been invaded, and the Take Our Border Back trucker convoy is heading there to peacefully protest the lack of security at the border.

Glenn Beck’s head writer and chief researcher, Jason Buttrill, is joining the truckers in order to get the truth out to Americans.

“He is there as somebody to do reporting on it. The one thing we learned about January 6 is you don’t have cameras there, they can tell all kinds of stories,” Glenn cautions.

The convoy is currently making its way from Louisiana to Texas.

So far, “it mostly looks almost like a pep rally, like a town moving from another town to go to a basketball game, with a bunch of flags, a bunch of cars,” Buttrill tells Glenn.

“This is not a January 6 crowd as of now,” he continues. “I’m getting a lot more almost like MLK type vibes from this group. They pulled in last night, they had a little debrief meeting, and they ended in a prayer.”

Buttrill notes the group was also telling others to “turn the other cheek” if anyone else in the group is trying to antagonize or rile people up.

In addition to the truckers, a lot of RVs are joining the convoy as well.

“There’s a lot more just regular people that come to support this. They’ve taken off work and they’re just driving with them,” Buttrill says.
