(CNN) The Department of Homeland Security is warning law enforcement across the country that a convoy of truckers protesting Covid-19 vaccine mandates, similar to recent protests in Ottawa, Canada, could soon begin in the US -- with the potential to affect Sunday's Super Bowl in the Los Angeles area and cause other disruptions.
A DHS bulletin issued on Tuesday to state and local officials, obtained by CNN, said the agency "has received reports of truck drivers planning to potentially block roads in major metropolitan cities in the United States in protest of, among other things, vaccine mandates for truck drivers."
The DHS warning was first reported by Yahoo News.
"The convoy will potentially begin in California as early as mid-February and arrive in Washington, DC, as late as mid-March, potentially impacting the Super Bowl LVI scheduled for 13 February and the State of the Union Address scheduled for 1 March," the bulletin said.

No reports of planned trucker violence. Uh huh, but they did not say whether FBI was planning a little violence to smear truckers.
I picture Mayorkass running to and fro in a military-style uniform bedecked with medals, screaming out commands to his underlings to churn out more bulletins, more bulletins, more bulletins.
Who cares. The truckers are far more important.
How rude to leave corn pop out!
CNN undermines my faith in government daily !
DHS STAT !
( see how that works ? /-)
Damn i will not be able to see the racist half time show
Any perps will be prosecuted by Garcetti, if they are White men. Otherwise, it's his jurisdiction, anything goes.
The only people causing trouble will be undercover agents.
I deal with logistics.
Rumors of this have been going on for a month plus.
I give this one better than average chance of being true.
No DHS warning about BLM demonstrations at the super bowl… on the field?
Ah Yes, reminder of the song “Convoy” by C.W. McCall.
Good, so what. These are good targets that get attention.
“It (truckers at superbowl) was mentioned last night on newsmax.”

Really awful idea, could only come from some Fed agency - DHS, FBI, etc.
Who cares about disrupting a dying sport?
