Ford Fischer's videos of the truckers meeting with members of Congress

A common response I’ve seen to my coverage of the People’s Convoy situation has been “what mandates are they protesting / what grievances do they still have today?”

Agree with them or not, the dialogue they had yesterday answers those questions.



Here is my full, uncut
@N2Sreports
video of #PeoplesConvoy participants meeting with Reps
@RepMTG
,
@RepMattGaetz
, and
@RepThomasMassie
on Capitol Hill.

As always, all footage is available to license.

these assholes are being paid by dark money to get attention, if we ignore them the people who fund them will stop funding them.

Not clicking on it, sorry.

Term limits have to be voted on by the folks being limited. Right up there with cutting congressional pay. Probably not going to happen.

Repeal has been on the ballot about 4 times and the legislature has tried to eliminate them theirselves. So you’re right they’ll never give up their money machine.

Not right away but she gets the message. Just have to wait these fools out. Do you think a mass eye rolling at a particular time would help?
