In 2016 [9], the Brothers of Wilks began purchasing large amounts of land mainly in the state of Idaho, mainly Ada, Boise, Valley County. Brothers Wilkes is familiar to local people, mainly to exercise their own private property and restrict access to local residents. These behaviors are often damaging the land Idaho people have used for recreation and generations. The Weeks Brothers often does not allow local residents even to hunt, snowmobiles, cut timber, or even cross their land. This caused a frustration, and the brothers won a negative reputation among the locals. [Ten]

59 year old Dan Wilks and 63 year old Farris Wilks sold a fracturing equipment company in 2011 for $ 3.5 billion.

Various conservative fund-raising activities are calling for their support.

It merely mentioned Dan that "America's dreams still exist and can prove to be accomplished," and praised Faris for "quiet but not propaganda." In 2013 sermons on Sodom and Gomorra's Biblical records, Wilkes said: "Sometimes I have to repent. If you rely on repentance, we will be repented, which can be allowed, Some people have to change their way of life. "According to the senior researcher Peter Montgomery's sermon, who freely organized American people, Wilks continued." Forgiving also means repentance We ask you to do things. What you have to do can repent almost everything we do.
