No Space for Hate Btown

The US District Court of Southern Indiana has issued a summary judgement on the suit between Sarah Dye (SCF/Volkmom) and the City of Bloomington. The court appears to have ruled in favor of the City and denied Dye’s requests for oral arguments.

One of the first speakers is from @Teamsters, who represent *actual* truck drivers. “These convoys do not represent us.” #dcconvoygohome #youdontspeakforus

So this is the approx. size of the convoy in Hagerstown, MD. They say they’re heading to DC today, and most likely many of them will, though there’s still not a consensus on when they’re going or even where (some say the beltway; others indicate they’re going into DC).

One last note on The People's Convoy tonight in Hagerstown, after speaking with many truckers, it doesn't seem like most of them will be satisfied after spending $2.5K in gas, only to be left trying to own the libs by merely circling the Beltway.

“Their conspiracy theories about politics went more mainstream in the lead-up to the January 6 Capitol riot, when GOP members across the country declared 2020 election results a fraud. One of those politicians, Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita, spoke at the rally.”

Good morning from the convoy in Hagerstown, Maryland! Hundreds of trucks and vehicles parked here overnight, with more rolling in currently. We are not sure what the plan today exactly is or if the group is heading elsewhere, but will bring you updates as things develop.

We found an outdated flyer and updated with symbols and logos that are still in use today. Ideal for printing, pasting, stapling to utility poles.

In Indiana last night, religious fervor dominated a rally for "The People's Convoy." Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita joined the lineup of far right speakers, and urged the audience to run for local school boards.

Boise Proud Boys are recruiting at the Health Freedom Idaho convoy event that Idaho Lt Governor Janice McGeachin is scheduled to speak at.

In a small town outside of Indianapolis last night, hundreds of "People's Convoy" supporters set up camp in advance of a large rally planned for this evening. The caravan to D.C. remains mostly personal vehicles. We estimate around 30-40 trucks rolled in alongside them.

“White supremacy, antisemitism, bigotry, and neo-Nazism are reprehensible and have no place in the Idaho Republican Party.” If this statement is true, @IdahoGOP, are you removing McGeachin from the party? Censure? Or is there still a place for white supremacy in your party?
