(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. Super Bowl LVI is a 'potentially attractive target' for terrorism but there is no sign of any specific, credible threat, officials say Super Bowl LVI is a 'potentially attractive target' for terrorism but there is no sign of any specific, credible threat, officials say

"While there are currently no indications of planned violence, if hundreds of trucks converge in a major metropolitan city, the potential exists to severely disrupt transportation, federal government operations, commercial facilities, and emergency services through gridlock and potential counterprotests," the bulletin continued.

A DHS spokesperson told CNN in a statement that the department "is tracking reports of a potential convoy that may be planning to travel to several U.S. cities. We have not observed specific calls for violence within the United States associated with this convoy, and are working closely with our federal, state, and local partners...

:: he warning is basically that if there is a truck convoy, then the fbi will send in antifa to cause violence, which will then be blamed on the convoy. ::

Warning?
Plan and orders, I’d say.

Just don’t wear the khaki chinos and dark blue jackets, mmmmkay?

If thousands truckers showed up in DC, many in the deep-state would be willing to go full “Tiananmen Square” on them.

The DHS needs to be completely dismantled. Most of the federal government needs to be completely dismantled. Leftist will use every single government entity to control your life and strip your freedoms. Prime example, who would have ever thought that OSHA would be used to enforce vaccine mandates on private businesses? Yeah, that was struck down but it created chaos for months, cost billions of dollars, and needlessly tied up courts. Every American is still paying for that failed policy every time they go to the grocery store.

“Pig Pen this here’s a Rubber Duck, we ain’t gonna pay no toll,
so we crashed the gate doing 98 and let them truckers roll—10-4!”

Perhaps the greatest line ever.

How long until Jen Psaki claims the convoys are protesting lack of action on climate change and failure to enact commonsense gun control?

This was one of my late father’s favorite movies.

I am going to find it and watch it this weekend. If Dad was with us, he would be driving out to Ottawa.

I didn’t know FBI agents were trained in driving big rigs.

If it does in fact happen, do you really think there is danger of riots, chaos and destruction of property?

What they fear is the public voting the people causing the chaos out of office.

I wished I had a better view of the DHS. But I have seen too much that tells me that those at the top are part of the enemy assaulting the nation.

DC has sold us out for more than 50 silver coins.
