The truckers convoy is coming to America, they just left Kingman AZ

headed to the E coast, looks like following I-40 and 44. They plan to spend the weekend in my state of OK. They will be in Elk City on the W border with NM on Saturday and Vinita on the E border with MO/AR on Sunday.
It will be interesting to see if Stitthead chooses to enforce his law which went into effect 4-21 " A new law in Oklahoma increases penalties for demonstrators who block public roadways and grants immunity to motorists who unintentionally kill or injure protesters while attempting to flee."
Under the new law, obstructing the use of a public street or highway during a protest is considered a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in county jail and/or a fine ranging from $100 to $5,000. Another provision grants civil and criminal liability protection to motorists who unintentionally cause injury or death while "fleeing from a riot."
If you would like more info on what they are up to, or to see the route/schedule, this looks like the official website.
