No matter how peaceful the protesters are, they will be smeared by the increasingly corrupt government for being a \u201cthreat.\u201d Already, government officials in D.C. are ramping up security and bracing for far more than what is expected from the group of truckers. <\/p>\n<p>The United States Capitol Police <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uscp.gov\/media-center\/press-releases\/uscp-plans-extra-security-ahead-joint-session-congress\">announced <\/a>last week that it is \u201cclosely coordinating with local, state and federal law enforcement agencies\u201d and is even discussing adding a fence around the Capitol. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin also <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/joe-biden-coronavirus-pandemic-health-canada-district-of-columbia-f60c50a07b755c30ec553990dc2965c3\">ordered at least 700 National Guard troops<\/a> to the capital city ahead of the convoy\u2019s expected arrival. <\/p>\n<p>Even Metropolitan Police Department Chief Robert Contee pledged his officers would work overtime to combat what he said will be \u201cdisruptions to traffic, that kind of thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we need to be very candid with the public about what some of the expectations, based upon what we\u2019ve seen in Ottawa, that we might see here in the District,\u201d he told the Associated Press.<\/p>\n<p>While D.C. officials panic, Biden has every reason to embrace the thousands of blue-collar workers he claims to support \u2014 but he won\u2019t. Already, the Biden administration showed discomfort with the Canadian Freedom Convoy by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/white-house\/biden-tells-trudeau-trucker-protests-are-serious-effects-us-companies-rcna15983\">pressuring<\/a>\u00a0the Trudeau government to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/02\/08\/canadian-elites-created-the-ottawa-crisis-and-they-have-no-idea-how-to-end-it\/\">crack down on its citizens<\/a>. Much like Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau did at the beginning of the Ottowa controversy, the White House has already painted the imminent U.S. convoy as a threat that requires federal attention and law enforcement. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been working \u2026 closely with our federal, state, and local partners to continuously assess the threat environment and keep our communities safe,\u201d White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/news\/jen-psaki-says-biden-admin-closely-watching-u-s-trucker-protest-assessing-threat-environment\/\">told reporters<\/a> this week. \u201cAnd our efforts include enhanced intelligence sharing, a Critical Incident Response Plan for the U.S. Capitol, a regional security assessment, and a simulation experiment that developed data-driven recommendations to bolster regional security.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trudeau similarly signaled his disdain for the original Freedom Convoy long before the peak of the movement in Ottowa because he believed they held \u201cunacceptable views.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa, who are holding unacceptable views that they are expressing, do not represent the views of Canadians,\u201d Trudeau\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/news\/8539610\/trucker-convoy-covid-vaccine-mandates-ottawa\/\">said<\/a>\u00a0during a press conference in January.<\/p>\n<p>Trudeau didn\u2019t lend the truckers a listening ear when he should have. Instead, the prime minister fled his Ottowa residence and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/01\/30\/canadian-truckers-send-trudeau-into-hiding-and-may-help-end-mandates\/\">hid in an undisclosed location<\/a> before invoking the Emergencies Act.
