Convoy news for Friday, May 20, 2022

This is from yesterday, at about 9 to 11 p.m. Petrizzo has several tweets about the convoy.

The People's Convoy is attempting to secretly ambush D.C. at some point later tonight under cover of darkness. Yet, in utilizing both MDOT and listening to loose-lipped supporters, it appears the convoy is attempting to post up near the National Portrait Gallery.

Back in Hagerstown, a fight among convoy members has broken out, with one woman claiming a man punched her husband in the face. “Get the fuck out of our campsite,” the woman further yelled.



The People's Convoy planned on ambushing Washington, D.C tonight. Instead, they haven't even made it to the Beltway and members of the group are fighting with each another.

A Metro PD officer tells The Daily Beast that the convoy hasn’t left Hagerstown yet, despite the group pledging to occupy Washington, D.C. at some point tonight.
