Dear Texans, do something about the scamming invaders now before you become even worse than it is up here. I saw the gigantic demonic gorilla statue they erected in Texas, remove them now before they start using your streets as a toilet

Investigate the invasion of Indians in Frisco Texas. Our mayor is being payed by Indians who don’t even live in the country. We have a lawyer in Dallas who is giving all these Indians H-1B visas. Abbot just banned it now after they have just received backlash from the true born Texans. I now live in little India… thank you America!

I live in Texas, and I am not in support of our senator or governor selling out to India, that's why every gas station has an Indian inside it, that's why you don't see Latino/ Latina owned phone service stores and they were replaced with Indians. That's what our tax dollars are being fed to, and me as a Texan feeling replaced, radicalized, and fed up with the b.s I'm highly considering investing/ building my own compound in the newr future. I love for Pakistan 🇵🇰 I love Bangladesh 🇧🇩 I love Turkey 🇹🇷 I DO NOT love India 🚫 India 🚫

Go our dear friends and neighbors of Canada! (A 5th generation Texan here depressed by what we have become.) Trump does not care, his paycheck is from our tax money and he will just file another personal bankruptcy if he needs to do so, because he is so good at business (not).

Texan here, in full support of Canada & Mexico!

Texan and Cold War veteran here. Canada has fought beside us in every major conflict and a number of small ones as well and has always been a good friend to the American people. I will do everything I can to support Canada and Ukraine and any other ally our current dis-administration attempts to bully. \n\nExcellent speech Mr. Prime Minister, you are what leadership and integrity look like and Canadians can be proud to call you their own. You are polite, we are not. You are loyal, we are not. You have guts, we currently do not. God keep your land glorious and free!

Canada, y’all may be impacted more by these trade war, but y’all have a higher pain tolerance. My fellow Texans lose all sense of principle and conviction when they have to pay 50 cents more for a weekly gas refill. Do what you must to teach Americans to vote with their convictions instead of their boredom.

Texan here. If I was Canada, I would have put a 30% Tariff against the U.S. Canada didn’t start this Fight, Trump did!!!!!!! U.S. Air Force Combat Unit Veteran, and I stand with all of NATO and Ukraine, and I can’t forget our Freinds on the Southern Border Mexico. Americans will always be Friends with Canada, you should be very proud of your Prime Minister, or President?

Texan here, who voted against Donny D 11:08 umbass. I stand with Canada and Ukraine.

I hope Canada wins.\n-A lifelong Texan

Texan and hispanic here ,didn't vote for that orange idiot and ashamed for America. Stand with Canada and Ukraine !!

Texan, I Stand with UKRAINE,CANADA AND MEXICO. A MAD,MAD MAN is at the WHEEL and I can do is hold on and HOPE and PRAY WE SURVIVE ?????

American and Texan here and I support Canada 100% — Trump, Vance and all the MAGAtts that still support them are pieces of shit. We are broken but we will “correct” this

As a Texan I'm happy them

As a Texan, a veteran, Son of the American Revolution, I support our friends, neighbors, and allies in Canada. I detest the horrible behavior our government has unleashed not just on Canada, but the entire world.

Texan here I stand with Canada ❤

Texan for Canada and a leader who is articulate, civil and intelligent...the polar opposite of Putin's beotch.

Trudeau, a true leader. Trump, sick and evil. I am an American. I am a Texan.

I'm American, Texan even. I've fought against Trump and this insanity since 2015. My wife is a trans woman who immigrated from the Philippines almost 20 years ago. I want my fellow Americans to wake up and remove Trump from more than this country but they are just too damned stupid apparently.

As a Texan, I stand with Canada ??❤

I applaud you for standing up to the psychopath who is deliberately trying to run the USA into the ground in deference to Putin. This Texan American stands with you and stands with Ukraine.????????

Only direct neighbor? I guess this may become true some day if Texans ever get their way and successfully leave the nation... But until then, I'm pretty sure mexico still exists ?

Its about time that these northen states feel and see what us texans have been dealing with

Speaking as a former New York City resident turned Texan, podcasts like this give me a small shred of hope that one day it’s possible that I could actually return. ???\n\nMAGA 4EVAH ??

As a Texan I came to have distain for the States of New York and California pushing policies and legislation that made no sense and even seemed anti-American. Texas has transformed in many ways for the negative due to the amount of illegal immigration that has taken place over the last 20 years.

All Texans armed to the border!

Let us Texans stop it!

Texan here. The delivery guy was abused. I would have stood on his side.

Only in Alberta because that’s where all the Texans are

“AMERICA ?? SAYS” THIS “CORRUPTED CULT” ALONG WITH THEIR RACIST WANNABE HITLER DICTATOR AND ALSO TEXAS GOVERNOR WHO PARDON A MURDER , NOW THINK THEY CAN “STEAMROLL” OVER ANYONE THEY PLEASE ! AMERICA ?? SAYS MAYBE THEY THINK THEY “FOOL” ALL MEXICAN AMERICANS IN “SOUTH TEXAS. THEY BETTER GO “BACK-TO-THEIR-ONE-SIDED-DRAWING BOARD”!!! “AMERICA ??SAYS” NO IMMIGRANTS HOLDING STATION HAS TO BE BUILT AND RAISED “TAXES” ON ALL SOUTH TEXANS AMERICANS ?? !! TEXANS AND ALL AMERICANS ?? SAY CUT YOUR “CONCERN CRAP” !! THE ONLY THING ALL THIS CHAOS IS GOING TO “CUZ” IS STRUGGLING SOUTH TEXANS STRUGGLE EVEN MORE !! PERIOD!

As a native 68 yrs old Texan latina , she is an embarrassment to my people who are the real Americans. Go back where you came from a dictator.\nWith that accent she'll be deported ??

Come on my land with that attitude. Texas, figure out the you're own boarder. Awwww, Texans are too lazy to do it they want the fed, awwww. Texas can remember the goddamn Alamo, but they can't remember to fix their own shit, yeah, for a state Missouri sure did get in their way of Texas plans huh. So who's sleeping with the cartel? Big Pharma, or Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. Somehow, the cartel's are getting American weapons, now, imagine that. Sounds like the Southwestern boarder got a big addiction problem to feed they're fix. You know Texas, for a state that flies it's flag as high as the our American Union flag you sure do act redneck retarded with a side of incest. The southwestern states need to fix they're own boarder but, seems like they to high on drugs are simply they don't care unless it's last minute, or they don't care at all.

SO as a Texan, I can relate big spaces and safety; believe it still exists here, and I love it. BUT here's the thing. I'm not just sayin this to you but to let''s say California ..you can't. run from problems and as beautiful as Canada and California are, the solution is not to escape but FIGHT to get your land back . This destruction of democracy which in this case Canada is a socialist country, ..you cannot escape . It will eventually catch up . Don't leave it to others to do it YOU HAVE TO do it for your country . Believe me I love having a good time and travel, but there are times in which you have to be serious, work, and fight. Life is not a blog or a YouTube channel. Don't run fight for your country back.

Think of Texas! It is hot but no snow. Texans enjoy a unique priority of freedom. I just visited my sister in Calgary, wonderful city.

Border crossings are down in Texas due to the Texas Governors tactics to stop illegal Crossings. The Feds have done nothing to help but everything to fight the Texans. They want them to swarm New York so that the Illegal Demonic Demoncrats can use them to vote illegally. All this is so the Dems can stay in power. Keep it up Dems. Keep voting for your same old reps. They have your back.

As a Texan, all I can say is....ha ha. Welcome to the club.

Life long Texan here and I can’t say a part of me isn’t relishing in the fact that northern states are starting to experience what we have for decades.

As a Texan, I can't wait for people to start asking for a Northern border wall ?

I gotta love me some American girl. Probably some sexy conservative Texan w/ cowboy boots and guns.

I call bullshit. Austin was our greatest city and could have been more then a hub for Tech Bro's. That is really all you need to know the arts in Austin are gone. It is extremely expensive down fall. Right Wing Texans are turning the state into California but this time there is no safety net.

AS A MUSLIM - Lemmie’ just say, I was justtttt talking to my WHITE BOSS today (I’m a truck driver, here in Toronto ??) about how much I GENUINELY enjoy racism from Texans and Alabamans. LOLLLLL - this guy is KILLLLINGGGG MEEEE. I’m dead !!!!! AhahahahaaaaaA !!!! I’m actually dead! LOL ! Cuz it reminded me of YouTuber, brother Zeeshan’s impersonation of racist English people, from “Smile2Jannah.” This got confrontational. If I was there and he actually laid a finger on these Muslim sisters of mine, in front of me, he’d probably be on the ground, flat. But at the same time, so entertaining to watch his racism. \n\nSince he didn’t touch them, I, as a Muslim would definitely wanna start off by giving this man a hug and doing my best not to let go

I was wondering how many Texans own guns .going by the population of texas .if a million texans own guns why aren't they at the border

Well said. Western Media keep pushing the Agenda that the Palestinians leave for other Arab countries..... WHY should they leave their land ?? Like if Mexico invades Texas and your response is, for Canada to take the Texan civilians as refugees, instead of stopping the Mexicans from invading.

Can't Texans defend their country? They all seem to be armed?

Smh...Texas is hateful as hell...they don't mind killing you...signed a native Texan

News coverage on how many got shot by Texans ??? That's what I wana see coverage of...

Why is this happening? You elected Joe Biden that's why. Remember Trump cared about us Texans and our borders.

I've traveled and worked in many parts of the USA. In most cases, I've found people to be more friendly, helpful and outgoing than Canadians because we tend to be more reserved.\n\nThe exceptions are when Americans feel afraid or threatened for some reason. Then things get really scary very quickly. The gun culture is one reason for this. At a coffee break in Houston my coworkers started talking about guns because one of them had been held up at gunpoint. His car was in the shop to repair a bullet hole in his front fender. This triggered talk about where people kept their guns at home, in their cars and on their persons. A small pile of 3 handguns ended up on the table while we talked, two of them from women's purses. All but one of the people had never used their guns except at a shooting range. The exception blew out a neighbor's over-loud outdoor speakers with a shotgun. He felt this was justified because he paid his shocked neighbor double the destroyed equipment's value in cash. Most of the Texans didn't agree with him but understood his rationale.\n\nI can handle a rifle and shotgun. Many Canadians hunt, but I can't think of a place in Canada where I could have had this conversation.

My uncle moved to Texas when he married my Texan aunt, but I’m fairly certain that’s only because she has a medical condition that means she physically cannot endure the temperatures we get here in Canada in the winter months. She would have quite literally been housebound for a third of the year every year if she came up here.\n\nEdit: Also, Canada may have a smaller population than the US, but we actually have the second-largest total land mass out of all the countries in the world. Russia is the only country with more land.\n\nEdit 2: In 2022, there were a total of 51 school shootings. That’s more than 4 school shootings *per month.* Of course we don’t trust the USA to be a safe place for children. Especially since even if you survive the shooting, there’s a good chance you’ll be bankrupted by injury.

As far as I’m aware Venezuela can be really dangerous to live in. I might do the same thing if I was born there especially as a woman or someone with children. But even men want to live. Easy to say that you should band together to overtake corruption but harder to do it when your life is directly on the line. I wouldn’t want to lose a father grandfather brother or son even for the sake of my country. This is coming from a Texan. I’ve had illegals do my lawn care and construction. Many are just trying to make a living. They sit outside all day long in the summers by my local post office waiting for people to come by and ask them to work. Cheap prices, too.
