I'm out in DC today serving as the Daily Beasts trucker protest correspondent. Plenty of hype, but as of now I'm not seeing much! There's a protest slated for around high noon, but last night the organizers permit backtracked on his prediction for a massive turnout.

The trucker protest by the Washington Monument is off to a slow and cold start. As of now, only 10 folks with the Stage of Freedom event are here. More press and police than rally-goers.

OP
Wonder if there are actually any trucks there or if it's just run-of-the-mill cult losers.

Yeah. And just yesterday I was going to comment that Tom Delay never went to jail.

Apparently the conviction was overturned.

(28,344 posts)18. I remember back then thinking we'd never get rid of him.
Nowadays I still think that way about pretty much the whole GQP. But they come and go after they've inflicted their damages, and made their riches.
Each election cycle we get a new batch that is worse than the last. I chalk that up to the recruiters searching for sycophants, bankrolled by big, dirty money.
