The trucker who goes by "Chicago Ray" who posted his video that went viral on right-wing social media calling for a trucker boycott of NYC to protest the verdict in Trump's New York fraud trial has deleted his video and now says he wants to take it back and forget the whole thing.

After deleting the video, he posted another message on Twitter where he said he just wanted to let bygones be bygones on this boycott thing, that he wasn't leading a movement, wasn't a figurehead, and wasn't "encouraging anyone to do anything."

But then he deleted that tweet, too, and then posted yet another one that said "no one's got to me" and that he's his "own man."

Well, if nothing else it's interesting watching him trying to get the hornets back into the nest.

Explain this newsflash away, and never mind your media bias nonsense,

Snip

“Early Signs that Trucking Companies are Joining New York Boycott”

“We are now at the start of the Trucker's Boycott of New York City because of the Democrat confiscation of Donald Trump's property and funds by a deranged judge and a prosecutor who ran for office on a vicious "GET TRUMP" platform. If the legal system thinks they can slow roll the appeals process then the Trucker Boycott will be an incentive to fast track overturn this absurdly illegal property confiscation for purely political reasons.
Early signs are that some trucking companies are joining in on the boycott of New York City. It makes sense. After all, if Donald Trump can have his property and funds ILLEGALLY seized by the government today then tomorrow it can happen to anybody... including trucking companies and their owners.”

Yes, it will be interesting how this story develops, or not.

LurkerMom: Explain this newsflash away...

You think that's a "newsflash"? Someone named survivaljunkie2 on TikTok?

I think this'll go about as well as the GOP-backed Canadian truckers blockade or the truckers convoy in Washington, D.C. or the "Take our Border Back" convoy.

One thing is pretty certain: regardless of how indispensable you think you are, there's always something else willing to do your job.

Trucker's Boycott of New York City because of the Democrat confiscation of Donald Trump's property and funds

Rumble? Easy to explain:

Overall, we rate Rumble Right Biased and Questionable based on the promotion of right-wing propaganda and conspiracy theories and false information, use of poor sources, and a lack of transparency.

There are lots of trucking companies, your source is very poor. If I was a trucking company that didn't deliver anything to New York and I liked Trump, I'd immediately declare that I'm refusing to deliver anything to NY for a pair of Trump autographed sneakers. :)
