Some Trucks ‘Rerouted' Due to Freedom Convoy Protests: White House
2022-02-09
[EpochTimes] Trucks carrying goods across the U.S.—Canada border have had to shift their routes because of the protests against COVID-19 vaccine mandates in Canada, the White House said Feb. 7.

While there have been zero impacts to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) operations, "some shipments were rerouted by our law enforcement partners to other points of entry due to road closures," White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters during a briefing in Washington.

"Some shippers have had to reroute. But CBP has been in communication throughout to ensure shipments can be cleared and onto the normal routes," she added.
Mayor Pete's been coordinating all the independent truckers, too?
Psaki was responding after a reporter with Reuters asked if the U.S. government was investigating "right-wing forces" that the reporter claimed have been supporting the protesters.

After dodging the original question speaking about the rerouting, Psaki added, "In terms of an assessment of any other engagement from here, we don’t really have any update on that or any investigation to read out at this point in time."
But thanks for the tip, we'll circle back on that.

#1  So what if "right wing forces" are supporting them. Get the fuck out of here, I'll spend my money where I want to.
