MAGA Convoy Confused By Lack Of 'Invasion' As They Arrive To Border

This week, a MAGA convoy descended on the border, inspired by Fox and other right wing media to stop a supposed “invasion” of hordes of migrants from pouring into the United States. They called their gathering the “Take Our Border Back Rally.” But as they arrived to Eagle Pass, Texas (after a, um, rocky start), they were shocked to find that the situation at the border was much different than they were led to believe. In fact, the only “hordes” of people who were at the border were the MAGA border vigilantes themselves.

MSNBC caught up with a rally goer named Misty in Quemado, Texas, who shared her confusion about what she witnessed at the border, or rather, what she didn’t witness.

“We actually made it into Eagle Pass…I was able to see some people trying to cross and stopped at the wire there,” she told the MSNBC anchor. “It’s very eye opening,” she added.

“And tell me more about ‘eye opening.’ Is it what you expected? Is it better? Is it worse?” asked the reporter.

Misty responded, “It’s not what I expected. But then again I don’t know what I expected. I can tell you it’s not as bad as what I thought. So that’s kind of eye opening in itself, too.”

Fox and other right wing networks and influencers have been hyping up the idea that there is an invasion at the border nonstop since the Biden economy began setting records. They wouldn’t just lie to their viewers, would they? Well, let's just say we'd bet $787.5 million that they would.
