A group of pecan farmers in Texas are voicing their concerns about the dangerous situation fostered Biden Administration immigration policies along the U.S. southwest border.

Pecan farmers are far from the only members of Texas’ agricultural community who have been forced to contend with the increasingly unfettered tide of illegal migrants.

Since I stopped watching FOX, I haven’t seen a minute of reporting on illegal immigration. Is FOX even reporting on it anymore or did the Murdochs order an end to that coverage?

I have seen the illegal grass crawling invaders when I was on border watch out of El Paso.

If there were bison herds, that is what I would think it looked like. Ground pounded down yards wide. Amazing. I thought the trails in S Texas were well defined it they had nothing on these.

My heart breaks for the Texas farmers. I would only wish that the liberals who cause this would similarly see their lives upended. But, no, those parasites are safely cocooned in their upscale bubbles somewhere.

Pecans don’t vote. Illegals vote.

BTW, it is pronounced pu-con. A pee-can is a container you take on long trips.
