Summary

Join Jim and Greg as they give a shout out to the 50,000 Canadian truckers bringing their convoy to Ottawa to fight against their government's vaccine mandate that's threatening their livelihoods. They also shake their heads as now President Biden and Ukrainian President Zelensky are at odds on when to expect a Russian invasion, whether the U.S. is sending the military aid Ukraine actually needs and more. And they're curious at Biden's timetable for announcing a Supreme Court nominee and the left's overreaction to criticism that Biden is prioritizing the wrong criteria in his search.

And that's because the truckers do not like the federal government's vaccine mandate

for cross-border truckers, which took effect on January 15th.

0:47.7

And so the Canadian trucking alliance estimates that roughly 15% of truckers in the country

0:53.0

are not fully vaccinated.

0:54.2

That means 16,000 truck drivers.

0:57.1

And that can mean a lot of things are delayed, which a lot of us in the United States have

1:01.7

figured out.

fringe minority of truckers.

1:19.6
