The American Truckers Freedom Convoy Just Added Two Powerful Conservatives to Their Ranks (Allen West and Ted Nugent)
The Liberty Daily ^ | Feb. 22, 2022 | J.D. Rucker

Posted on 02/22/2022 7:58:13 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Lt. Col. (ret) Allen West has gotten behind many great causes in his career after the military. The Texas gubernatorial candidate is now putting his clout behind the American versions of the Freedom Convoy in Canada, and he’s not alone. Rocker Ted Nugent is going to participate as well.

Here’s the release from LTC West’s site:

Lt. Col. (Ret.) Allen West and Ted Nugent will be joining the American Truckers Freedom Convoy/Frontline Truckers as they travel across the state of Texas. This will occur sometime next week in south Texas.

Lt. Col. West stated:

“I am proud to join the peaceful protest inspired by our freedom-loving brothers and sisters to the north. Our constitution gives citizens the right to peaceably assemble and to petition their government for redress of grievances.

“The actions taken by the truckers in Ottawa and across Canada have been heroic, and I am proud to join a protest that was inspired by them. Totalitarian vaccine mandates and mask mandates have no place in the West let alone Texas. We cannot allow draconian measures to be cemented by leftist tyrants.”

Truckers have been the backbone of the American economy and supply chain, and their efforts to stand in the gap against tyranny have been inspiring. It is these working-class men and women who have answered the call to protect our constitutional rights from petty bureaucrats. God bless them for their stand.

Truckers and patriots across North America are doing what they can to oppose draconian vaccine mandates being invoked by governments and private companies alike. The Freedom Convoy in Canada has brought out the true totalitarian nature of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who reacted by activating the Emergencies Act and continuing to have convoy participants and their supporters persecuted even as the protests have ended in Ottawa.

West will be accused of being an insurrectionist. I am happy he is allowing these leftist in Washington to show how wrong they are. Every Republican running for office needs to get in their cars and meet with the convoy. Afterwards, they need to make a public statement of support. This needs to be the acid test. Make it clear as possible who’s side they are on. Do not do so is cowardly.

No matter what happens, and what happens will be jack boot LEOS crushing Grandma’s skull, the idiot voters will be trained like clapping seals to believe it was a deadly insurrection.

I personally think the convoy could turn out very badly. I’d rather see a strike. And now Posobiec is saying something similar.

People are acting like it's a party.
I don't think it should be a party.

Some might find that it's not a party... the hard way...like those poor duped Jan 6 prisoners.

If they can really keep the trucker protests going traveling here and there and in every blue state tyrant's front yard, maybe it will work...but watch how the media and all the usual suspects paint the protesters.

The problem is we need to make the tyrants lives miserable, instead this might further harm the supply chain problems and cause resentment among-st the population we need on our side..

I think a good turnout by the convoy would goose strike participation if it comes to that.

If you find out where they’re meeting up, FReepmail me.

I don’t want to spend hours driving around to every truck stop or parking lot that I *think* they’ll all fit into.

“info is never clear or forthcoming.”

True. They want to keep exact info a little fuzzy so the RAT socialists don’t have time to plan their evil. I still hope they re-route to I-40 though TN at the last minute.

“stopping working people from ... supper probably won’t exactly win the people over.”

Yeah. Liberty’s not important enough that a person can’t miss a meal. Glad you weren’t around in the 1700s.

FReeper truckers in the convoy should have FreeRepublic banners of flags on their rigs.

Very cool! I wish they’d come through my area. I might have to do a small road trip. I hope you have a great time!

Well, a strike could certainly have an eye opening effect, nationwide. Every locale could potentially be impacted.

And, what would they (corruptocrats) do? Track down each and every trucker and make them go to work?

I’ll have to tune in to what Poso is saying. Thanks.
