Tracking truckers: Traffic jam on I-395 as convoy heads into DC for the first time

Hundreds of truckers have spent the past week traversing the country from the west coast returning to the nation's capital Monday morning to protest COVID-19 mask and vaccine mandates put in place by the federal government since the pandemic began.

The "People's Convoy" originated in California last week and has merged with several other organized convoys of varying size to converge on D.C. to protest in a similar fashion to the truck driver protests that halted Canadian government operations in the capital of Ottawa over the last month.

Protesters who are part of the People's Convoy stress their demonstration will remain peaceful.

They are back on the road after a weekend snowstorm. Finally they entered the belly of the beast, enemy occupied Washington DC. The truckers demands must be met. End all federal mask and vaccine mandates. End the federal covid emergency that was supposed to expire March 1, 2022.

 

A beautiful sight!

 

The, "Let's kill grandma," convoy ... whatever.

 

To all advocates of mask and vaccine mandates, passports, and emergency powers, It’s time to let it go.

 

it's just a mask during a global pandemic, not forever, and the restrictions are basically over, time for these republican truckers to clam down

we will all pay more for our gas and goods because of them, ready for $11.00 milk? $7 gas?

 

As soon as Biden ends all covid federal mandates and emergency powers this will end. Not one minute before then. The inflation in gas and diesel prices is all on Biden and his stupid policies.

 

It seems that the bicoastal secular progressive urban elites and their limousine liberal eco freak friends can’t deal with flyover country heartland America’s working and middle class standing up to and resisting them and their oligarchy.

 

lot of blame to go around for oil prices, even Trump has his fingers in that one

but greedy oil companies are most to blame

 

Cannot have people blocking streets. It doesn't matter what the reason is. BLM riots, trucker protests, celebrity funerals, doesn't fkin matter - DO NOT block streets.

 

Real end of the world stuff they had to endure ... ohhh, we have to wear a mask for 5 minutes a day ... ohhh, I'm going to die ... it's such a hardship.
WTF.

 

I395 in that area is just an alternate route for going under the Chesapeake. Traffic is almost always heavy.

Not much of an accomplishment other than those that need attention.

 

They’re not blocking them. They’re in traffic. Happens all the time. Just more of it cause of all the trucks.

 

The truckers demands must be met? So you are ok with hostage taking?
You and these "protestors" are a joke. You hate it when someone else does it, but it's ok when it's a cause you care about.
"Finally they entered the belly of the beast, enemy occupied Washington DC."
The drama queens are out early today!

 

lol! Why should truckers who work mostly alone have to be coerced into getting a jab or producing their papers? What’s the point of them wearing a useless face diaper?

 

That’s what talking about! The left hates it that the populist nationalist conservatives are taking peaceful protest and peaceful civil disobedience pages out of the handbook of the left. The left like Trudeau are quick to not negotiate and resort to brute force when the other side does it to them

 

AI is going to put those truckers out of a job.

That said, truckers don't need to wear a face mask, all their protesting is moot.

 

Nah...Not Really...

 

What you are describing is bias, sometimes to the extreme.
It's harmful no matter who does it.

I was also just poking a little fun at you. You may lighten up a little if it makes you feel better.

 

Mmmm, yes, a fine line I think. I hope they don't cross it because I will not support traffic blocking.

 

Jeff Tiedrich: If the crybaby grievance truckers are looking for traffic to block, I hear there's a convoy of tanks trying to get into Kyiv.

 

Amazing - Trump turned truckers into Drama Queens.

 

What federal mandates are these dipshit truckers bitching about exactly?

 

Jesus, at this time and date people STILL freaking out about a mask! COVID is yesterday, get with the program, it's now the DNC nuclear war, Russia, Russia and Ukraine..

Hell even Walmart has dropped any and all mandates employee and customers.. I guess it's true, the only thing really left of the Scamdemic is the hypochondriac's

 

Although we see this Hilarious!

 

I heard it had something to do with Bigfoot's Birthday being made a National Holiday.
Which made the price of Diesel spike by $2.00.
