I dont understand why journalists aren’t looking into who is funding this. It can’t be that hard. There is NO WAY most of these folks can afford the gas. |
Whoever it is, are they really getting much for their money? The whole thing seems a day late if not a dollar short. |
| Are they done protesting tryanny yet? |
I think it’s pretty well known this money is coming from right-wing PACs and similar. |
It’s actually been covered quite a bit. For example: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/03/04/peoples-convoy-donations-fraud-afclf/ |
| isn't Ted Cruz riding around with them? |
+1. While not realizing that MD/DC/VA (everyone has a different opinion on the worst offender) drivers are mean to literally everyone. |
Exactly. These truckers have obviously never even visited the area on vacation, much less worked driving through it. They are also incredibly thin skinned for conservative retired truckers. |
Are they really professional truckers or just rabble rousers hired for the occasion? |

| Where are they today? Maybe I’ll go F with them. |
| Why are they still here? To annoy and harass DC commuters? What does that accomplish? DC rush hour is already an annoying clusterf*ck. Do they plan to just make it more of annoy clusterf*ck indefinitely? That changes nothing, except maybe pushing some folks onto Metro (which is actually a good thing if we want metro to become financially viable). |
Rush hour commuters know how exits work. Drivers are likely to change lanes suddenly left to right before an exit and other drivers are going to merge into traffic after an exit. We don’t assume they are ANTIFA or that they targeted us personally. We say left to avoid that shit and merge right for our exit. If you lose your shit every time a driver cuts in front of you, stay off 95, 295, 395, 495, 695, 66, 70, and 270. |

Why are they still here? What’s the goal? I mean, can anyone complete the following sentence: the truckers will think they have been successful an leave when ———-? I can’t.
I also think their paranoia over normal rush hour traffic is dangerous. Now Fed attorney paper pushers need to worry about being surrounded by truckers and shot for merging on the beltway? |
