All westbound lanes opened on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge just before noon Thursday, California Highway Patrol said. Throughout the morning commute, protesters fully shut down westbound traffic as world leaders gathered in San Francisco for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit.

100 to 200 protesters associated with the activist group Arab Resource and Organizing Center were on the bridge earlier this morning.

Arab Resource and Organizing Center. Same group that boarded the MARAD cargo ship in Oakland last week. Not an insurection though.

So interfering with military supplies ships doesn’t count. No MAGA hats so it was okay./S

This country’s people are getting too trashy to worry about saving these days.

It mirrors the last insurrection, which took place in the Summer of 2020.

This reminded me of the concert attendees on 10/7 as they were trying to flee terrorists on motorcycles with automatic weapons taking the passengers and drivers out as they were mired in stopped traffic.

I am suspicious of the fires that shut down I-10 as well. We already know that no truth will be told that does not fit the now well-known narrative.

Perhaps the recent and current events are probes?

Wouldn’t it be cheaper to just throw them off the bridge?

I’m also suspicious of that fire.
