Truckers' Revolt: The NYC Boycott That Could Paralyze the City

EDITOR'S NOTES

In a bold move that screams “F**k Around & Find Out,” American truckers are gearing up to make a stand against what they see as progressive tyranny by refusing loads to New York City starting Monday. Fed up with being pushed around and provoked by leftist policies, these truckers are channeling their inner rebel, echoing the defiance of European farmers against elite crackdowns. With truck drivers responsible for transporting up to 73% of all US freight, their planned boycott is not just a minor inconvenience; it’s a potential chokehold on New York City’s supply lines. As one trucker puts it, they’re tired of the left’s attacks on Trump and ready to show who truly keeps the country running. With nearly 3 million views on a viral video rallying for the boycott, it’s clear this isn’t just talk. New York City, consider this your wake-up call: the truckers are coming, and they’re not delivering your goods.

Google search trends for "trucker boycott" surging across nation:

And "boycott NYC"...

"I'm a trucker, and I stand with the boycott. Time to show the corrupt we run this country. Not them," one X user said.

Besides New York City, truckers on X call for drivers to boycott liberal cities.

"Liberals laugh at the thought of a trucker boycott of NYC. A few years ago, a trucker boycott brought the state of Colorado to its knees. MAGA patriots make this country run. Liberals make our coffee," another X user said.

What happens if trucks stopped?

What others are saying.

Some American truckers appear to be adopting strategies similar to those used by European farmers in their fight against progressive elites aiming to shut down their farms.

Truck drivers transport between 70% to 73% of all freight in the United States. Therefore, when truckers begin discussing plans on social media to boycott loads to progressive hellhole New York City, it's important to pay attention.

X user Chicago1Ray, who appears to be a Midwest truck driver, shared a video late Friday night detailing that a number of truck drivers will begin denying loads to NYC on Monday.

"I don't know how far across the country this is - or how many truckers are going start denying loads to NYC - but I'll tell you - you f**k around and find out," Chicago1Ray said.

He continued: "We're tired of motherf**king leftist f**king with Trump. Okay ... Motherfu**ers start to get tired of this shit. Our bosses aren't going to care if we deny loads. We'll go somewhere else."

"You know how hard it is to get in and out of NYC?" the trucker emphasized.

I've been on the radio for over an hour and I've talked to at least (10) Truckers who are gonna start refusing loads of Monday for (NYC) ...I talked to (3) guys that I work with who texted the boss and told him no (NYC)

Truckers are (95%) Trump... it'll get overturned on appeal… pic.twitter.com/qVzx4RKUmd

By Saturday morning, the video had amassed nearly 3 million views. This comes after a New York judge handed former President Trump a penalty of $355 million plus interest on his civil fraud case.
