1. Guess arkansas doesn't need anything?

I don't think that will last, companies will be taking arkansas and the gov to court over this; companies and the state don't like to lose money, and this will cost both big time.

My adopted home state, not born but raised there. No deliveries ever made in Arkansas by someone who didn’t speak English? Ever? Never a bitch before? Christ on a crutch. He’s bringing us Toilet Paper but he don’t speak no English so he can take it back.

Ok you hand them over 10k and they let you go, right? Well who's verifying that the money doesn't go in someone's pocket? This sounds like a lot of "officers" are about to start buying goats (hahahaha)...

12. So what happens to the freight?

Are they taking possession?

Are they checking the freight manifest before they decide to arrest you? Remember, -45 refused to allow FEMA to help them so maybe they are stopping trucks to get what supplies they need another way?

Many are hardcore MAGA. Truckers also supposedly voted 80% MAGA.

Either they are idiots for pissing on their base supporters, or they have decided they don't need them anymore because they will not have any more elections.

They have figured out the machines.

Remember Karl Rove on the night Obama won Ohio. He was up in arms raving mad that there was no way in hell he won Ohio. And he knew what the vote totals were before they even closed the polls.
