Their behavior has been nothing short of thuggish in Ottawa. They kept people in the neighborhood awake all night, revving their engines, blowing their horns. They\u2019ve deprived Ottawa of business, of tens of millions of dollars, now they\u2019re blockading the international bridges.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>He continued, \u201cThey\u2019re laying off people,&nbsp;cutting their shifts short in&nbsp;automotive assembly plants&nbsp;because they can\u2019t get the parts&nbsp;from Canada to the United States. They used their crowbars to&nbsp;threaten cops who were going to&nbsp;tow their trucks away they were&nbsp;blocking. They told tow truck drivers that&nbsp;they\u2019ll remember them when this&nbsp;is over, a clear intimidation tactic.&nbsp;To give these guys the mantle of freedom fighters is absolutely appallingly na\u00efve.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Rivera added, \u201cI understand the&nbsp;frustration about masks and all&nbsp;the rest of it, but to give these folks a pass&nbsp;is, I think, very destructive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He concluded, \u201cWhen you have protesters&nbsp;bringing Confederate flags and Swastikas and to paint them in&nbsp;the same portrait as&nbsp;our Founding Fathers? What the hell is that about? They have been very destructive. Forty percent of Canada\u2019s trade goes over the Ambassador Bridge that they have blocked. What about the hard-working&nbsp;people that have gone to work&nbsp;every day during this pandemic&nbsp;and now can\u2019t get to work? Or can\u2019t work because there\u2019s no&nbsp;parts in their factory to work&nbsp;with? I&nbsp;think that it\u2019s selfish, and&nbsp;it is excessive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Pam Key on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pamkeyNEN\">@pamkeyNEN<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fox News host Geraldo Rivera said Wednesday on FNC\u2019s \u201cThe Story\u201d that the \u201cFreedom Convoy\u201d truckers in Canada are thugs terrorizing the residents of Ottawa.
