Eagle Pass residents watch as their city becomes an arena for convoys – and policies fail to address their real concerns
Just a few blocks from a riverbank park in Eagle Pass that’s been turned into a no-go militarized zone by Texas troops, local pastor Javier Leyva was attempting a normal Sunday.
He was cultivating fellowship with congregants of his First United Methodist church and other residents downtown, on the US-Mexico border. But, as so often, events were to intrude. A fringe, rightwing group was headed to town.
His small city is under unwanted global scrutiny because of people migrating here and the forces that want to stop them.
D'oh! Michael Kosta! (That's what I get for linking immediately without even bothering to look at the thumbnail because my faulty memory told me it was Klepper.)
The bulk of the Texas State Troopers and city cops and "constitutional" sheriffs march in line with the governor when they aren't running off to his far right.
