If you look in their own training manual - It says what will be provided, (P19-20)

It says the sponsoring chapter will provide some things and porta-potties. It does not say food is provided.
It looks from the manual, you provide your own lodging and food; the chapter you are sponsored from is supposed to coordinate supplies, directions, porta-potties.
There's a $50 fee for a background investigation on volunteers. Maybe they are irked about that?
Still sounds like sour grapes to me.
For Pete's Sake, weezle, those volunteeres were there for the cause, and it cost them much more than $50 to pack up their lives and head to the border.
One of the volunteers in the report actually opened donation letters. He knew the amount that came in and ~went missing~ somewhere other than the border.
How much is Simcox being paid? How much goes to others as salaries?
They are asking others to sacrifice for the cause, to the point of one man donationg the $120,000 procedes on the sale of his home.
There are too many people making money from the whole border control cottage industry, I afraid.
