Convoy news for Saturday, May 21, 2022 [View all]

I heard on WTOP this morning that the convoy was evicted from the Hagerstown Speedway after fighting broke out.

The trucker convoy has once again given up on D.C. Before they left, I drove to Hagerstown to try to find out what exactly they wanted.

I did not find out.



Leaders of The People's Convoy have now called Maryland State Troopers on their followers as supporters consider storming into a luxury RV where leaders are hiding.



"They committed fraud," the group continues to yell at four convoy leaders who continually go in and out of a luxury RV. All while state troopers try to de-escalate the situation.



“Arrest them for fucking fraud,” another convoy supporter yelled, attempting to get state troopers to arrest convoy leaders over alleged misuse of funds raised.
