On top of District of Colombia police forces reinstalling gates to block off the Capital, the National Guard has now been called in to assist with cracking down on security measures, to keeping the coming trucker protest peaceful.
Major Aaron Thacker, a spokesman for the DC National Guard told the Military Times,
The District of Columbia National Guard is aware of a request for assistance sent to the Department of Defense by the District of Columbia Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency.
[The request] asks DCNG provide traffic control support to the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department in anticipation of First Amendment demonstrations expected next week in the District. DCNG is also aware of a similar request for assistance submitted by the U.S. Capitol Police.[The DCNG] stands ready to provide support to the citizens of the District as directed by the secretary of defense.
Today it was announced that that request was granted from the Department of Defense (DoD), deploying 700 to 800 unarmed national guard troops to the nation’s capital, reported by The Guardian.
These troops are reported to be mainly used to mitigate traffic.
This will be the first time the newer, more streamlined National Guard activation since the January 6th Capital Riots in 2021.
Those agencies have asked for National Guard personnel to provide support at traffic control points in and around the District to help the USCP and DC government address potential challenges stemming from possible disruptions at key traffic arteries. No decisions have been made yet to approve these requests.
Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby stated
Furthermore, the Guard will also provide additional vehicles and troops stationed at “43 critical blocking positions 24/7,” the Military Times explained.
The Route
Just like their Canadian counterparts, “The People’s Convoy” has already earned $465,000 in donations, at the time of this publication, and rapidly growing – via the American Foundation for Civil Liberties and Freedom.
Mike Landis, one of the lead organizers, explained what the movement is about on their website and Rumble page.
In a press release statement obtained by Timcast, reads:
The truckers and blue-collar workers of the United States will be joined by freedom-loving supporters from all walks of life – frontline doctors, lawyers, first responders, former military servicemen and women, students, retirees, mothers, fathers and children – on this peaceful and law-abiding transcontinental journey toward the east coast. The truckers encourage one and all to come out to the stadium in the heart of Adelanto, California to wish them well, see them off and join in the journey.
This convoy is about freedom and unity: the truckers are riding unified across party and state lines and with people of all colors and creeds – Christians, Muslims, Jews, Sikhs, Mormons, Agnostics, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans, Republican, Democrats. All individuals are welcome to participate by either attending the launch gathering – at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday February 23, at Adelanto Stadium – or by getting in their own vehicles and following the big rigs from Adelanto toward the east coast.
To that end, it’s time for elected officials to work with the blue collar and white-collar workers of America and restore accountability and liberty – by lifting all mandates and ending the state of emergency – as COVID is well-in-hand now, and Americans need to get back to work in a free and unrestricted manner.
On the convoy’s website, the route and timestamps where convoy will be is explained.

Though not explicitly stated, the truckers will be in Indianapolis, Indiana, a day extra it appears, which may imply that they will protest longer there for some reason or restock on supplies; or perhaps maybe a typo on their part.
It should be noted as well that there have been reports of other routes and paths that some truckers could be taking. This is because there is some conflicting information that is coming from other trucker convoys that are purported to also converge on D.C. around the same timeframe.
This was noted in an aforementioned WinePress report, with a brigade coming from Scranton, Pennsylvania, planning to block off several dozen streets and exits.
Financial journalist “The Economic Ninja” said that he will be giving viewers a birdseye view into the protests, planning to follow them and document the raw events.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
The WP has noted in other reports about the early formation of these rallies, that they are indeed controlled opposition, and will only make the problem worse. In that report, I show that they are literal crisis actors being hired in D.C. to play the roles of police, military, civilian, and so forth; so, it is not a “conspiracy.”
The U.S. Trucker “Convoy To D.C” Is Controlled Opposition
With the media all over this, and seeing the response already from the military, and the Canadian crackdown; I see this as another “Capital Riot” scenario (or at least could be) playing out, which will only strip away more freedoms.
On top of that, seeing as more truckers will be bogging down traffic and cutting off people from work in areas, I suggest going to the store and picking up more goods before they run out and inflate some more because of this – which is the underlying goal.
Autonomous Trucks And Truckyards Are Now Replacing Drivers Amidst Protests
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
Mark 13:8
Instead of repenting to God and returning to righteousness, these people would rather make it worse for all us, by solving nothing; though, they will say that what they are doing is working.
Also, I am having “déjà vu,” or whatever you call it, right now: the Bob Bolus guy – I have seen him before, but I am not sure when and where, but he looks awfully familiar to me…
[34] Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people. [35] The king’s favour is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him that causeth shame.Proverbs 14:34-35
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Hi brother Jacob I came across this about the Bob Bolus guy. Could this be why his name/face looks familiar to you?

Good find. Thanks for posting that. I don’t think that’s what I was thinking of, but it does demonstrate that these people running the thing have a rap sheet. Maybe because he committed these past crimes he is now being blackmailed and is under the thumb of the Feds?
That’s an interesting point. Follow the money and there’s definitely an angle multiple agendas. Having a man known for fraud and thievery. I also saw he just this past December 2021 had a fundraiser at a catholic church. It does look like a plant and controlled opposition to me.
You have good insights I suspect Bolus may be catholic.

Rap singers go to jail to get street credentials/stripes. Hitler’s Mucich putsch (arrest & jail) was about creds. I wont be surprised if the younger organizers emerge as future politicians/leaders.
