They got a judge to block access to the funds now. What are they afraid of? I guess they don't get that they don't need the money to sit there. They are at risk of losing everything and will do it if needed.

The US Department of Homeland Security has warned that a convoy of truckers protesting against Covid-19 vaccine mandates could impact the Super Bowl.

The department said a protest similar to ongoing demonstrations in Canada could start in California in the coming days, and then travel to Washington DC.

Truckers protesting in Canada's capital Ottawa have been blocking main roads.

The Super Bowl, the final game of the US National Football League, is planned for Sunday 13 February in Los Angeles.

In a bulletin issued to law enforcement agencies across the US, the department said it had received reports of truck drivers planning to potentially block roads in major cities in protest against mandatory Covid vaccinations in their industry.


As I mentioned previously I would prefer the truckers protest at their state capitols, not DC. Keep money spent on gas, food and lodging out of DC and keep in local economies. Also, I'm not in favor of truckers blocking roads. People who have nothing to do with the mandates still have to get to work and do life. Trucks interfering with roads, streets, bridges and borders are not doing anyone any good. 

Also this tidbit from the article.... The department told the BBC it was "tracking reports of a potential convoy" but that it had "not observed specific calls for violence". To my knowledge there has been no violence in Canada on the part of the convoy. There is an antifa idiot who has been charged with a hit-and-run.

I don't know how they can do much unless they block entry points to parking and the stadium. They won't be close enough to impact the game but could potentially shut down fans getting there. Supposedly there are trucks on the way but I haven't seen anything verifiable.

The protest in Canada isn't keeping people from getting to work. They have planned it very well to leave lanes or other roads open to allow emergency vehicles to get through. If they wanted too, they could block all entry into the city as they have enough trucks outside the city right now. The border crossing have been blocked or somewhat blocked. That's not a huge deal as cars can still cross and a lot of trucks aren't going to cross anyways right now.
