Washington police closed streets as a convoy of truckers protesting the government’s response to Covid-19 and other grievances clogged a major interstate artery leading through the nation’s capitol.
Images on Twitter showed traffic brought to a standstill and Washington’s Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency said “demonstration activity” was leading to delays on interstates that parallel the Pentagon and run through the southern part of the city not far from the Capitol building.
