According to Gateway Pundit (a handy source not an endorsement):

On Friday, the largest group, ‘The People’s Convoy,’ merged with another massive group when it arrived at its final rest stop in Hagerstown, Maryland, which is just 75 miles (90 minutes) away from the nation’s capital.

The convoy is now well over 10,000 vehicles long, including thousands of trucks. There are so many participants in the caravan that it has taken over three hours for them to get off the highway, and there is still no end in sight.

We will monitor, including watching out for a riot that can conveniently be made into a further Reichstag fire framing incident. DEVELOPING

F/N: It seems, details include:
The FDA on Tuesday released a large tranche of Pfizer clinical trials documents in response to a Freedom of Information (FOIA) request by the Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency. The documents show that the company knew people were at risk of experiencing more than 1,000 unique adverse side-effects to the mRNA injections. Additionally, scientists last week revealed that Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine can enter human liver cells and be converted into DNA—something the fact-checkers and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control assured the public could never happen. Scientists also recently discovered that a sequence of genetic material patented by Moderna in 2018 bears a suspicious similarity to the spike protein in Sars-Cov2. And a new study published on March 2 found that the synthetic mRNA found in the vaccines does not degrade quickly as promised, but continues to produce spike proteins for nearly two weeks . . . . “Hong Kong hospitals can’t keep up with the deaths amid an Omicron surge,” reads a recent New York Times headline. “Dead bodies are piling up on gurneys in hospital hallways as Hong Kong’s health system is overloaded by its biggest Covid-19 outbreak of the pandemic.” In the United Kingdom, only 394 vaccine-free persons died in weeks 5-8 of 2022, compared to the 3,527 who were vaccinated, according to the UK Health Security Agency. This means unvaccinated Brits only comprised 10 percent of all COVID deaths during those weeks . . . . In the face of failure, tyrannical medical policies continue to disrupt our lives, including the military mandate, the CMS mandate, the blocking of early treatments, and the appalling push to inject children with the ineffective experimental vaccines.
They add:
The list [of potential adverse reactions] includes acute kidney injury, acute flaccid myelitis, anti-sperm antibody positive, brain stem embolism, brain stem thrombosis, cardiac arrest, cardiac failure, cardiac ventricular thrombosis, cardiogenic shock [--> Shane Warne, is this you?] , central nervous system vasculitis, death neonatal, deep vein thrombosis, encephalitis brain stem, encephalitis hemorrhagic, frontal lobe epilepsy, foaming at mouth, epileptic psychosis, facial paralysis, fetal distress syndrome, gastrointestinal amyloidosis, generalized tonic-clonic seizure, Hashimoto’s encephalopathy, hepatic vascular thrombosis, herpes zoster reactivation, immune-mediated hepatitis, interstitial lung disease, jugular vein embolism, juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, liver injury, low birth weight, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children, myocarditis, neonatal seizure, pancreatitis, pneumonia, stillbirth, tachycardia, temporal lobe epilepsy, testicular autoimmunity, thrombotic cerebral infarction, Type 1 diabetes mellitus, venous thrombosis neonatal, and vertebral artery thrombosis among 1,246 other medical conditions following vaccination.
This came out by FOIA action. Consider, here, that the well tested treatments, in reasonable doses, have little side effects and credibly function to prevent progressing down the U/L track of such a disease. Once, given early enough. Then, consider the impact of the official push to suppress such, down to locking up Quercetin, a supplement coming from apple peels. We need to ask some pretty pointed questions. KFkairosfocus

C19 is out of the headlines. This is mainly attributed to the Ukraine invasion. However, it may also be due to potential devastating findings about the vaccines.
COVID Vaccine Bombshells You Probably Missed When a critical mass of American people realize what has been done to them, there will need to be a reckoning. In recent weeks, there have been several stunning revelations concerning the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines—and they are being all but ignored by a corporate media eager to change the subject. The COVID pandemic now plays second fiddle to the Russia-Ukraine war in the media, but the virus continues to rage through highly vaccinated countries, afflicting the triple-vaxxed most of all According to Blaze columnist Daniel Horowitz, all of these stories are the reason why COVID has all but disappeared from headlines. The truth cannot be suppressed forever.

Jerry, useful, a 30 mile long convoy is obviously significant. I note some remarks in the DM article, which tie into the false dilemma polarisation issue:
The People's Convoy is one of several convoys traveling to the greater D.C. area this weekend. As the caravan rallied across the nation, more truckers and protestors joined in its rank, resulting in the once eight-mile-long cavalcade now spanning a distance of 30 miles, according to Times-Reporter journalists following the group. All throughout its journey, the group was met with waves of supporters decked out in red-white-and-blue attire holding signs and flags on interstate overpasses. 'It's a high, seeing all the people on the overpasses and the sides of the roads,' Idaho-based freight trucker Craig Brown, 53, told the Washington Post. 'All these people treating us like we are heroes.' 'The American people have supported these guys so much,' Nevada resident Trish Glatter, who wrecked her pickup truck in Oklahoma, said in an interview with the Times-Reporter Friday. 'It cost about $800 to fill one of these trucks up with gas and this is being paid for by the American people.' Glatter said her fellow convoyers wouldn't let the accident deter her mission and instead offered for her to ride with them to D.C.: 'This is a group of truckers of men and women that are so together. Everyone is a peaceful family on a mission that they will not step back from.' Similarly, bystanders are hailing the truckers as 'brave' heroes fighting for their freedoms. 'I think our country is being taken over by people that don't have our best interest at heart and we are just here to wave our flags and support the truck drivers that are brave enough to do this,' supporter Sharon Hanning, of West Virginia, said. 'I have a lot of Canadian friends. I watched the Canadian convoy,' echoed Susan Johnson, of Tennessee, who also ventured to D.C. for the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. 'I love it,' she added. 'I felt that it was really important that we support the USA, the Constitution the Bill of Rights.' The People's Convoy is demanding the federal government be held accountable for imposing on the freedoms of the American people. 'We are standing up for medical freedom, for all freedoms because we feel like our Constitution needs to be restored,' convoy participant Jennifer Wahrman, of Missouri, said. She told the Times-Reporter her son was dishonorably discharged from the Kansas National Guard for refusing a direct order to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Her sister, a teacher in St. Louis, was also fired for refusing the shot. 'He has made a choice to not take it after doing his own personal research and he is entitled to that, we feel,' she said. 'Originally he was going to get a general discharge which is still not OK but they have decided that since the command directed it he would be disobeying a direct order and will be dishonorably discharge. That's the reason we are here.'
In short, petition for redress of grievance, particularly tied to excesses and possible abuses of official power. KF PS, we can also see the you are extremists talking points. Fits right in with the false dilemma and polarisation issue. There is a real grievance that is not going to go away because people have had insult added to injury.kairosfocus

This made me laugh. It’s like protesting winter at the end of March.
“ A trucker convoy finally reaching Washington to protest COVID-19 mandates -- now that almost all mandates have been lifted -- is like the American version of Japanese in caves still fighting World War II in the 1950s” https://twitter.com/will_bunch/status/1500095114781286403?s=21

Sev, first, strawman. A protest is neither a policy nor a regime, it is petition for redress. When it comes to the pandemic, as I noted in the Canadian thread 4,
The point is, experts disagree here, and we need to look at evidence seriously to arrive at soundness or at least that secondary soundness we call prudence. What you have instead been doing is to attend to the narrative by officialdom dressed up in medical and lab coats, without pausing to calibrate against facts, logic and associated assumptions. Robert Malone, for example is a key originator of mRNA technology, indeed a patent holder and has spent his career on addressing infectious diseases etc. McCullough is an eminent academic medical practitioner and one of the people who led in the global response. And we can keep going, indeed I would argue that the smeared Raoult is comparably eminent to Fauci. And so forth. However, we can go to facts on the ground, and a key one is to compare what happened in Uttar Pradesh India with Zelenko-McCollough derived protocols and low vax rates [ 240+ mn in a poor state of India] and what happened in Israel now on jab no 4 in a year and the pattern of vaxxed people catching, being hospitalised and even dying in the UK, just for starters, as that is now not sampling but population/census level results. The facts are clear, and they indict officialdom, especially after we see the 50 steps pattern summarised above.
Here are the 50+ steps. There is need for a serious rethink and fresh approach. KFkairosfocus

Who is in the US Trucker convoy?
WHO WE ARE: We are truckers, moms, students, nurses, doctors, investors, county workers, teachers, cowboys, loggers, engineers, sanitation workers, professors, cashiers, flight attendants, pilots, sales reps, physical therapists. WE ARE, fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, married, single, divorced, separated, gay, straight. WE ARE Black, White, Asian, Native American. WE ARE immigrants, natives: WE ARE citizens of the free world. To our elected officials that believe they rule us: YOU work for US. Our constitution was written to provide enough power to act on a national level, but not enough to deprive the people of fundamental rights. The people are prepared to see this challenge through — as we have seen through all challenges to our Freedom in the past. And we will prevail and prosper. To our brave and courageous neighbors to the North — our Canadian brothers and sisters who led the charge — we join your call to Freedom with THE PEOPLE’S CONVOY. LET THE GOLDEN LIGHT OF LIBERTY BURN BRIGHT: LET FREEDOM ROLL!!
They represent all of the US not just the elites funded by Wall Street who owns Big Pharma and the news that a large percentage still read/watch. Again , here are the elites driving the agenda that is undermining a sane world. Nearly everyone is missing the real story on what’s happening.
Figures like the World Economic Forum chairman Klaus Schwab, BlackRock’s Larry Fink, or Marty Lipton, founding partner of Wall Street’s most profitable law firm, have assumed the mantle of crypto-politician, absent the accountability of a real public servant. Asset managers like Fink, who is entrusted with $10 trillion of holdings, are willing to use their influence across the market to force smaller companies to conform with their vision of social justice by refusing to invest in them or provide financial services

Jerry, going by the Sandmann standard, the only thing that will get news attention on protests that do not fit the preferred agenda is ifd there is something that can be twisted into an accusation. KFkairosfocus

The US Truckers Convoy has generated almost no news. That should change as they hit the Beltway today. It’s Saturday which I’m sure was planned way ahead of time. See what happens on Monday. The Washington beltway is used by 90% of government workers to get to work. None of the conservative news sites have mentioned anything in the last few days. I did a search of several sites and nothing showed up. One article from a month ago indicated the grievances in US are less since mandates are less of a deal in US. Because of state government powers, they are less of an issue than in Canada. I get the feeling that many believe this is not necessary in US and might generate favorable attitudes toward Biden. I live in a relatively free state that just got rid of any mask mandates. Before that most were not wearing them. You still see about a 1/3 wearing them in grocery stores near my town which is a liberal part of state. But in other towns, much less.jerry

I would not use gateway pundit as a source for anything. They consistently publish things that are not in any other source and then disappear. Here is the US convoy website.
