That's not going to be possible. Most long-haul truckers are independent entrepreneurs who choose the loads they wish to deliver. There is no central organization for the feral government to target. They can't even prove any individual trucker is causing harm to NY if they are all driving their trucks and going to other destinations.
No need for violence....
True.
Cut off the truck deliveries of tofu, arugula and coffee chain supplies and the Left will call uncle. Without a shot (including in the coffee.)☕🥬
RE: But that’s where most of the food comes from.
College student: Hey, food comes from a supermarket. From a shelf or a freezer. Like electricity comes from sockets you plug into.
Has this had any effect on NYC?
I wouldn’t think of it.
Good memory jogger.
Yes. Prices already starting to tick up, and I’m in the Buffalo Area. Now, this may make no sense to some of you folks as we’re what - 8 hours away from downstate, but two things:
1. Some truckers are trying to avoid loads to NY state as a whole, thus delivery fees are going up and...
2. Drivers that would be coming this was and still on the road will get a better pay for delivering downstate.
Now, I’m going to say this, and maybe tick some folks off. I appreciate what the Drivers are out there doing, and support them 100%. But I disagree with taking this to all the blue areas - yet.
As I stated previously, let’s not make this more than what it is. Remember, we want the judgement against Trump lifted. Learn from the Canadians; stick to one primary issue. Once victorious, we go on to the next op. But let’s focus on the tri-state area feeling it first.

Took about a month for Colorado to buckle the last time truckers did this.

It’s on Roku as well.
AGREE!! One Target at a time. I also agree that ALL Blue Liberal Shitholes need to feel pain.
Just do it One At A Time!!!
There is plenty of freight to haul to other places. Starve NY!
How about $3,550 a load plus $1,000 as a penalty surcharge? Why? Same reason as Trump’s penalty and interest charge, just because they can.
We are already in a deep cold Civil War but only the left is fighting. The right is just barely on the defense only part time.
“Truckers make the world work”
Truckers listen to talk-radio...
“Simply increase the freight rite to NYC. A environmental surcharge, so to speak. $454/load”
Should equal at least a fill up... 350 gallons at $4 a gallon = $1400.
