The organizers of the “US Freedom Convoy” disbanded the caravan and cancelled all rallies this Saturday after only five trucks arrived in Las Vegas. The truckers were instead urged to join "The People’s Convoy," which consists of 100 trucks that departed California for D.C. and has amassed nearly $1m in donations.

The convoy's organizers are reportedly accepting refunds donors and said, “to prevent another rally without our truckers— our team will not be moving thru SLC and Denver."

“There is a much larger convoy called The Peoples Convoy, that will near the Kansas and St Louis routes we had planned previously by the morning of February 28th,” the organizers posted on Facebook. “We are focusing on our goal of unity. Follow them! We appreciate everyone who donated towards the truckers."

1. Much ado about nothing, lot of bun, no beef...pretty much sums up online platform news.

Keep on DU truckin y’all… just not to Twitter or fb.

But online media had its feeding frenzy days, high on the diesel fumes and prospects of truckers leading an 18 wheeler civil war in America…lol… so all good there.

Only wish the frenzy was over finding out the truth…not just amplify the lies and liars or uncovering mysterious half truths…that’s platform medias real breadmaker.

2. What will they protest now? The end of Covid restrictions?

There's money to be grifted from the rubes that think these Convoys mean something.

3. They already looked like a bunch of whiny babies; and now, compared to

the bravery of the people of Ukraine, they are shown to be the most infantile bunch of snowflakes ever to walk the Earth. People are dying defending their country from a tyrant while these d-bags pout about the tyranny of being inconvenienced by masks. Imagine an emergency room trying to triage and treat dozens of victims of a plane crash when some Karen type stomps in and demands that the doctors drop everything to attend to the rash on their butt. That's those trucker assholes.

4. That tickles me to no end.

5. If any of them actually got to DC, they'd accomplish about as much as...

the Canadian truckers did...nothing but a couple of weeks of clogging up their nation's capitol.

6. "WE GOT A GREAT BIG CONVOY--oh, never mind."

7. There still trucks coming east according to this story

I image the 100 they have will grow the closer to the east coast. I hope the Governors are ready. It seems DC is getting ready to avoid what happened in Canada.

8. Congress should pass a law that makes it a felony crime to use tractor trailers

in protests. Want to protest? Use your feet and voice to make your point. Using TT's to disrupt commerce and transportations?, pull their commercial drivers licenses.

12. And the marks get scammed yet again...

You would think they would learn... But no, they simply don't

13. With demand for truck drivers what it is today, I can't imagine anyone having time join in.

We will need to tune in the local Indiana news to see what happens at Ted's Equipment. National Media is busy with other news.

14. Dang it! These convoys are folding like a cheap cigar!

Seriously. We had one that circled the Beltway with one semi and about three pickup trucks for about 2 hours and then skedaddled back to Scranton PA. That's it! I for one, am sorely disappointed in the manliness of your average Convoy type these days!

What mask and vaccine mandates?
