Coming to America: Truckers protesting COVID mandates set to hit U.S. roads
'Everybody is encouraged and we feel hope for once'

The truckers' convoy protesting COVID mandates across Canada has proven to be at least partly successful, as provinces are starting to relinquish their mandatory mask and vaccine demands, even as the action has enraged politicians and triggered a national emergency declaration.
Now the same movement is coming to the United States.
It was feared by Joe Biden's Department of Homeland Security to already be a threat, because the federal agency warned of the possibility of the disruption of traffic at last weekend's professional football championship in California.
But now a report in Newsweek has cited a email from organizers in revealing that the "MAGA Convoy," so named after former President Donald Trump's campaign slogan, "Make America Great Again," is to start engines in Los Angeles on Feb. 25, and head toward Washington, D.C.
"Many" stops are planned, the email said.
"Okay it's our turn! The Canadians did a great job, but we're going to boost the Freedom Convoy and include a MAGA Convoy too!," the report quoted from an email.
Donations are being accepted online, to pay for the drivers, support staff and fuel.
