    So in a repeat of Canada -- the people on the ground in the U.S. Trucker Convoy wonder where all the money went. They are suddenly realizing that the donors and themselves have been completely defrauded... and it is just a matter of time before the "leadership" faces wire fraud charges.

    Truck convoy drivers wonder where the donated money went -- and what the mission is

    The doling out of commemorative items came after the convoy's leadership met with a number of Republican politicians on Capitol Hill Tuesday, including Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Ron Johnson, Rep. Matt Gaetz and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

    Translated:

    "We met with the guy what left his state when things got cold . We met with this other guy who likes underage girls. We met with that fella who said that the January 6th folks didn't scare him as much as black people did. And, of course, we met with that gal who calls out Jews for having space lasers. And, I gotta tell you, I was impressed. WE left our homes. WE like underage womens. WE get scared by black people. And WE are always worried what the Jews - not Israel, mind you, we love Israel - but what these Jews are doing with their space weapons. Here, have a plaque."

  5. Convoy Lyrics

    Ah, breaker one-nine, this here's the Rubber Duck
    You gotta copy on me, Pig Pen, c'mon?
    Ah, yeah, 10-4, Pig Pen, fer shure, fer shure
    By golly, it's clean clear to Flag Town, c'mon
    Yeah, that's a big 10-4 there, Pig Pen
    Yeah, we definitely got the front door, good buddy
    Mercy sakes alive, looks like we got us a convoy

    Was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June
    In a Kenworth pullin' logs
    Cab-over Pete with a reefer on
    And a Jimmy haulin' hogs
    We is headin' for bear on I-one-oh
    'Bout a mile outta Shaky Town
    I says, "Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck
    "And I'm about to put the hammer down"
    'Cause we got a little ol' convoy
    Rockin' through the night
    Yeah, we got a little ol' convoy
    Ain't she a beautiful sight?
    Come on and join our convoy
    Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
    We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
    'Cross the USA
    Convoy! (Ah, breaker, Pig Pen, this here's the Duck)
    And, you wanna back off them hogs? Convoy
    Yeah, 10-4, 'bout five mile or so.
    Ten, roger. Them hogs is gettin' in-tense up here
    By the time we got into Tulsa Town
    We had eighty-five trucks in all
    But they's a roadblock up on the cloverleaf
    And them bears was wall-to-wall
    Yeah, them smokies is thick as bugs on a bumper
    They even had a bear in the air!
    I says, "Callin' all trucks, this here's the Duck
    "We about to go a-huntin' bear"
    'Cause we got a great big convoy
    Rockin' through the night
    Yeah, we got a great big convoy
    Ain't she a beautiful sight?
    Come on and join our convoy
    Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
    We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
    'Cross the USA
    Convoy! (Ah, you wanna give me a 10-9 on that, Pig Pen?)
    Convoy! (Negatory, Pig Pen, you're still too close)
    Yeah, them hogs is startin' to close up my sinuses
    Mercy sakes, you better back off another ten
    Well, we rolled up Interstate 44
    Like a rocket sled on rails
    We tore up all of our swindle sheets
    And left 'em settin' on the scales
    By the time we hit that Chi-town
    Them bears was a-gettin' smart
    They'd brought up some reinforcements
    From the Illinois National Guard
    There's armored cars, and tanks, and Jeeps
    And rigs of ev'ry size
    Yeah, them chicken coops was full'a bears
    And choppers filled the skies
    Well, we shot the line and we went for broke
    With a thousand screamin' trucks
    An' eleven long-haired Friends a' Jesus
    In a chartreuse micra-bus
    Ah, Rubber Duck to Sodbuster, come over
    Yeah, 10-4, Sodbuster?
    Listen, you wanna put that micro-bus in behind that suicide jockey?
    Yeah, he's haulin' dynamite, and he needs all the help he can get
    Well, we laid a strip for the Jersey shore
    Prepared to cross the line
    I could see the bridge was lined with bears
    But I didn't have a dog-goned dime
    I says, "Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck
    "We just ain't a-gonna pay no toll"
    So we crashed the gate doing ninety-eight
    I says "Let them truckers roll, 10-4"
    'Cause we got a mighty convoy
    Rockin' through the night
    Yeah, we got a mighty convoy
    Ain't she a beautiful sight?
    Come on and join our convoy
    Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
    We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
    'Cross the USA

    Convoy! (Ah, 10-4, Pig Pen, what's your twenty?)
    Convoy! (OMAHA? Well, they oughta know what to do with them hogs out there fer sure)
    Convoy! (Well, mercy sakes, good buddy, we gonna back on outta here, so keep the bugs off your glass and the bears)
    Convoy! (Off your tail, We'll catch you on the flip-flop. This here's the Rubber Duck on the side)
    Convoy! (We gone, 'bye, 'bye)


    Edit: Here it is. I think.




    Trying again:

    It's just Grifting...


    The $2 Million Question: What Did the D.C. Trucker Convoy Donations Buy?
    The trucker convoy has largely been making it up as they go, but truckers are grumbling that they don’t know the endgame or what all the donations have been used for.

    Maybe Cruz should just flee to Mexico in a plane. He obviously hates America.

    Ted Cruz rode with the 'People's Convoy' truckers around the DC Beltway to protest against vaccine mandates

    Not only do the "convoy truckers" complain endlessly about the bad traffic in D.C. --- now they are complaining that everyone is flipping them off. Well dipstick, when you come to town with the deliberate intent of further slowing traffic then what do you expect.

    Convoy Trucker Not Pleased That DC Drivers Keep Flipping Him Off
    “Birds are flying everywhere. That’s the kind of people that live up there,” a trucker with the People's Convoy lamented.
