Rinaldi tweeted a summary of the whole thing, saying the Dem said “you have to leave sometime and I will get you.” Rinaldi then said, “If you do I will have to shoot you in self defense.” Then he called police security. LOL.

Stand your ground, brother!!

Texas is already a minority-majority state (along with California, New Mexico and Hawaii, I think I’m missing one and Nevada and Arizona are close), see what it is like in 10 years and this shows the bad will that exists.

Texas, beware of Mexi-RATs! They are what’s going on here in CA. Left to their own devices they will do all in their power to turn Texas into Mexico del Norte.


It’s possible that they will eventually have enough power to succeed and then ask Mexico to annex them.

Dems true colors are showing revealing them to be the bullies they are.

They’re getting really desperate, aren’t they?

And they think they are qualified to lead this country?

I say *THANK GOD, they are not in power!!!*

He’s the treasonous wretch that Cicero talked about within the walls. Although this time the Huns are within our walls attempting to overthrow our laws with mass colonization of their own people within our land.
