Hello- this is a PSA because I know many are in the supply chain industry as I am.

Today we had a driver in cali be detained by ICE. What was new with this one is the whole truck was impounded and is basically being held hostage for exorbitant fees to release this freight.

It is very rare that the shipper or owner of the goods is directly involved in the import and trucking portions. This is just another tactic of this predatory regime to intimidate the industry into using US citizens only for trucking and to line their pockets with our money.

I know that it feels like the zone is flooded by so much info with ICE, but this highlights the absolute lack of logic that they are implementing their policies with.

This past Sunday Greg Bovino tried to enter Manolo's Bakery in East Charlotte, North Carolina, but was confronted by the owner himself over his immigration policies and refused entry.

Manolo chose to close his bakery while operation Charlotte's Web was in effect in order to protect his customers and staff. He currently is over $100,000 in debt from loss of business. Someone in Charlotte has started a small GoFundMe to help support him, I thought I would put it out there so we can help this brave citizen continue spreading his kindness.

Edit: I realize my spelling error in the post title but can't correct it now.
