THEO VAN GOGH: FREEDOM TRUCKERS NO IN USA – Homeland Security warns of potential trucker protest at Super Bowl, monitoring possible convoy headed to DC
NEWS PAUL SACCA February 10, 2022 The Department of Homeland Security issued a warning about a potential truck protest developing at Sunday’s Super Bowl LVI in California.
The DHS acknowledged that the possible event appears “purely aspirational” at this time. Still, the agency noted that it will monitor potential vehicle-oriented protests, including a prospective trucker convoy heading to Washington, D.C.
The DHS is concerned about a possible protest this Super Bowl weekend in the Inglewood neighborhood of Los Angeles. Authorities are wary of an Ottawa-like “Freedom Convoy” trucker protest near the SoFi Stadium — the site of Super Bowl LVI.
On Tuesday, the DHS said it had “received reports of a convoy of truckers planning to potentially block roads in major metropolitan cities in the United States in protest of, among other things, vaccine mandates for truck drivers,” according to Yahoo News.
