I, too, hate the monarchs. We fought a revolution to rid ourselves of one monarch. Why should we let millions of them every year?

“conservative conspiracy theories”...

In other words “the truth”?

I think it’s part of Marianna Treviño-Wright building ‘damages’— she’s lawsuit happy.

I think they plan on going after Kimberly Lowe, Virginia congressional candidate who was poking around down there and a kerfuffle ensued.

In 2017 they also sued the Trump administration (think it’s still going)

Edited the quote to make it more honest.

"To hell with butterflies, the safety of our staff and visitors is our primary concern,"

BS. I was camping about a mile from there last week, on the south side of the border wall. If they have lush gardens, then they planted them. The only endangered species is a rat. If they are too lazy to return to work after sitting on their butts for two years getting paid covid subsidies to do nothing, then maybe they should just turn their butterfly center over to the state parks that operate world birding centers. Just another hoax hate crime to get money and press coverage.

I just left there and visited that center. What a bunch of insufferable commies that run the place. They got their panties in a wad because the Governor signed legislation that kept them from enforcing a VAX mandate on the property. Lots of trees and birds, but I wouldn’t call it lush. Enjoyed the bird center just west of there though.

Frauds and phonies on the march. Liberals will stop at nothing in their zeal to become virtuous victims.

We’re they making baby milk formula for the poor illegal immigrants, too?

The story mentioned that they did this before - for three days.

This might just be another brief stunt, to pose as a victim, possibly to try and influence one of the court cases they are involved with.

21. These are pro-America butterflies. Mine wear little American flag patches on their wings when they migrate in the Fall.

Where did Jeff Gasbag get the authority to ‘found’ the NATIONAL Butterfly Catchers Sanctuary?

Lies, Lies, and more Lies.

The butterfly preserve was shown on TV earlier this week. It looked like a trash heap from all the debris left by the illegals.
