Also, there are more tiny groups attempting to make their way to D.C. to catch up with the this larger “People’s Convoy.” One tiny “convoy” just recently passed through Arizona a few days ago and there are TONS of localized chats/groups organizing their own plans.

I have no plans to go downtown today anyway.

If they try to use 295 good luck it’s mostly wide open anyway.

Russia is invading a freedom loving country and killing civilians while Putin threatens nuclear war. Nobody cares about these selfish fuck heads anymore.
