Racist Hate Group ALIPAC and President William Gheen use Mexican truck issue to defraud elderly

Once again, ALIPAC President William Potter Gheen III is using a current event in his pathetic attempt to defraud American’s elderly population into donating to his nativist hate group, wrongfully called “Americans for Legal Immigration”. That’s right folks, Gheen, in the midst of his third attempt this year to scam unsuspecting old folks and others who are scared to death of a mythical “Mexican invasion” using the issue of Mexican trucks. As my readers already know, one carefully inspected and closely monitored Mexican carrier has been given authority to operate in the United States under the recent Cross Border Pilot ….Read More

Transportes Olympics granted "Permanent Operating Authority" under new Pilot Program Rules. OOIDA cries "Foul"

After the completion of their first trip to Garland Texas under the new Cross Border Pilot Program, Transportes Olympics has been granted “permanent operating authority” by the FMCSA as specified in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) regarding the cross border program. The announcement was made last Wednesday by FMCSA North American Borders Specialist Carla Vagnini at the fall meeting of the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators that was held in Ottawa. Under the rules, Transportes Olympics will no longer be required to undergo a Level I CVSA inspection each time it crosses into the United States under the program. ….Read More

Mexican Cross Border Pilot Program officially underway as first Mexican truck arrives at Laredo

An editorial caught me eye this morning, on this day that the first Mexican carrier to be granted authority to operate beyond the commercial zone enters the U.S. It reads in part; When a nation signs and ratifies a treaty with another, it is in effect a contract between those countries. And when one country later simply decides it does not like the terms of the treaty and unilaterally decides to stop abiding by those terms —- well, that nation isn’t behaving very honorably, is it? The roadblocks being thrown up by groups like OOIDA and the Teamsters that have ….Read More

Teamster and OOIDA's Otay Mesa "Dog and Pony Show" nothing more than lies and alarmist rhetoric

It was an afternoon full of alarmist rhetoric geared towards fueling the hysteria against anything Mexican to anyone who cared to listen. All and all, about what we expected. I’m referring of course to the presser held by Teamsters President James P. Hoffa who was joined by OOIDA VP Todd Spencer, and hand picked OOIDA member from “Mexico” Jose Escott, and two members of California’s Congressional delegation, Duncan Hunter (R-Ca) and Bob Filner (D-Ca), two Congressmen who never miss an opportunity to bash Mexico and it’s people. Was anything new discussed? Not a thing. Alarmist rhetoric, lies upon lies upon ….Read More

Teamsters & OOIDA leaders to join together for whinefest at Otay Mesa Border Crossing

Embattled President James P. Hoffa announced in a presser today that he and OOIDA Executive Vice President Todd Spencer, will be joined by nativist Congressmen Bob Filner (D-CA) and Duncan Hunter (R-CA) to whine about and bash the recent opening of the southern border to safe and closely monitored Mexican carriers. It’s interesting the cowards chose Otay Mesa, more than 1400 miles west of the busiest US border crossing at Laredo and where the first Mexican carrier to obtain provisional authority, Transportes Olympics is expected to begin sending trucks across this week. According to Hoffa, The speakers will whine and ….Read More

Teamsters and OOIDA "punked" by FMCSA

The headline from OOIDA reads; OOIDA comments prompt second look at cross-border applicant which is true to a point. OOIDA’s protest outlined research of the vehicle identification numbers from inspection reports contained on FMCSA’s CSA website and questioned whether Grupo Behr would be using a 1991 Class 8 Freightliner, which does not comply with the EPA requirement for vehicles of model year 1998 or later. Well, as it turns out, Grupo Behr has no intention of using the 1991 Freightliner, nor the Ford 8 passenger van that was termed a “gross polluter” during a smog check and repaired and passed the ….Read More

The Border is now open to long haul Mexican carriers - And the sky ain't fallen yet!

With the issuance of provisional operating authority to Transportes Olympics on Friday, October 14, 2011, our southern border is now open to long haul trucks from Mexico who have passed the requirements for participation in the pilot program. This puts the US into long overdue compliance with our obligations under NAFTA. The remaining 50% of the$2.4 billion in legal retaliatory tariff’s Mexico placed on 99 US manufactured exports, will now be lifted within 5 days. “This is a big win for American farmers and consumers, who will no longer have to struggle with onerous tariffs imposed by Mexico,” said U.S. ….Read More

Tariff's are lifted as first Mexican carrier receives authority to operate in the United States

What can only be described as a resounding success in our efforts to see the United States come into compliance with it obligations under the NAFTA accords, the remaining 50 percent of the $2.4 billion regulatory tariffs imposed by Mexico in 2009 will now be lifted. The tariff’s, imposed after the Obama Administration signed a funding bill in 2009 that shut down the previous demonstration program which in it’s 18 months was highly successful, have cost American workers more than 25,000 jobs and 14% market share in the agricultural sector. Transportes Olympics, despite frivolous objections by OOIDA, Teamsters and others ….Read More
