MOSES LAKE — Around 200 truck drivers, farmers, family members and others came from across Grant County — many in vehicles flying U.S. flags, Gadsden “Don’t tread on Me” flags, and Trump 2024 flags — to gather in a bean field west of Moses Lake on Saturday to support Canadian truckers and call for an immediate end to all COVID-19-related mandates.
