Convoy news for Thursday, May 19, 2022 [View all]

Zachary Petrizzo has many tweets about the convoy.

Despite pledging to not pointlessly circle the Beltway, The People's Convoy made their return this afternoon and circled the Beltway.

Naturally, the convoy found themselves stuck in rush-hour traffic around 3 p.m. today on the Beltway. A pretty big self-own to get into Beltway traffic for no reason if you ask me.



Things have only continued to crumble for the convoy in recent days: The convoy's top live-streamer Sasnak announced that he was heading home this morning, and convoy leader David Riddell claims Metro PD has been threatening to take his commercial driver's license.

Even supporters of the People's Convoy are predicting violence, with one, who gave money to a live streamer, saying this afternoon: "I see several people leaning towards violence."



In a nightly meeting this evening, The People's Convoy spoke about quietly ambushing Washington, D.C., and occupying the city tomorrow during the evening hours. (They plan to ride into D.C. with their cameras and radios off.)

Love to quietly drive my 53 foot truck decorated with "Let's go Brandon" flags into the nation's capital, pretending no one is going to notice.
