The Border Chronicle Weekly Roundup: October 3
The MAGA military takeover has its roots in Texas' Operation Lone Star. And the Trump administration cuts food assistance in South Texas to fund armed agents, walls and detention centers.
Hello dear reader, The Border Chronicle will not have a live video today for the weekly roundup or next week’s roundup. Both Melissa and Todd are traveling off the grid.
Also, we have a special request. In the last two weeks with annual paid subscriptions coming up for renewal we took a heavy loss with several subscribers not renewing. This directly impacts our reporting and our ability to provide you with fact-based news from the U.S.-Mexico border. We rely 100 percent on our readers and listeners to fund our reporting at The Border Chronicle, and we try to keep much of our reporting free and accessible to anyone who wants to read it. We can do this because of our paid subscribers. Please consider supporting or renewing your paid subscription. It’s just $6 a month or $60 a year. We can’t do this without you!
