More than 2,500 protesters outraged over lax border security gathered in prayer and protest in three border states over the weekend.

YUMA, Ariz.—More than 2,500 protesters outraged over lax border security and an unprecedented surge in illegal immigration under the Biden administration gathered in prayer and protest in three border states over the weekend.

More than 300 gathered in San Diego County on Feb. 3 before joining the Take Our Border Back convoy to Yuma, while another rally was held at Eagle Pass, Texas.

Kim Yeater, a California-based organizer, told 300 supporters at the César Chávez Recreation Center in San Ysidro, California, to look at the border wall visible in the distance.

“You see the wall,” she said. “That’s a safe, closed border right there.”

The rallies were “peaceful, lawful assembly and prayer,” Ms. Yeater stressed to all supporters.

“We are rolling in love. We are rolling in peace. … and, when we roll in our alignment with God first, and country, that is really key,” she said. “We have been in battle for quite some time. We’ve been waiting and waiting and waiting for something to happen—something to shift—and I think what we’re learning we are the shift. Yes, people are the shift.”

The protesters formed a convoy of more than 200 vehicles for the 185-mile drive to where two other convoys converged.

“It was amazing,” Ms. Yeater said.

Rock star Ted Nugent, who played a guitar solo of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin spoke at the rally in Eagle Pass.

The purpose of the event, according to organizers, was to warn Americans about “the imminent danger” that the Biden administration’s “open border” policies pose to national security and public safety. The group isn’t opposed to legal immigration, but wants to see immigration laws enforced and illegal immigrants safely and humanely deported back to their home countries, Ms. Yeater said preceding the rally.

In Yuma, hundreds of people lined the road, cheering and chanting “U-S-A” as about 200 vehicles in the California convoy arrived at dusk on Feb. 3.
