Activist Alleges 'No Name Given' Trucking Firms Linked to Migrants in US
A conservative activist has made a startling claim that "hundreds if not thousands" of trucking companies in the United States are registered under the name "No Name Given." This situation, she asserts, is connected to migrants, particularly those from the Punjabi community, who allegedly do not provide their full names to US authorities.
Details from Audio Recording on X
The claim was shared in an audio clip posted on X by MAGA activist Savanah Hernandez. In the recording, she describes a review of the USDOT (Department of Transportation) company census file, which contains over two million entries. The first speaker in the audio states, "These are all trucking companies that have been registered, and this is their contact name." The exchange continues with a second person confirming the scope, noting, "And each individual one is a trucking company here in the US."
The second speaker elaborates on the data, explaining, "Yes, on the USDOT record, there is a primary officer. And this is the person that owns the trucking company and is responsible for the paperwork, one of the two. This is where all of these names came from. And so I pulled the list from, it’s the file for the company census file at the USDOT, two point something million rows. And so I pulled everyone that included no given name, first name unknown, last name unknown. It’s a lot, and with the no given name, I searched it on the corporate filings, it’s only trucking companies that have this."
Practical Implications and Safety Concerns
In the recording, the second speaker clarifies the practical implications, stating, "And again, I just want to clarify, these are the primary contacts of these companies here in the US. These people have active trucking companies." The first speaker agrees, responding, "Yes." The audio concludes with a suggestion that companies registered in this manner are able to operate heavy trucks on American highways, which might pose dangers for citizens. It says, "And can actively have 18 wheelers or semis on US interstates."
Hernandez's post attributes this issue to years of alleged negligence by the US Department of Transportation (DOT). She suggests it began when migrants who crossed the border illegally did not provide their full names to Border Patrol, leading to "No Name Given" entries on official paperwork. This has resulted in registrations such as "No Name Given Ankur," "No Name Given Anjali," or "No Name Given Anil," highlighting the pattern in the data.
Broader Context and Community Impact
The claim raises significant questions about regulatory oversight and safety in the US trucking industry. If accurate, it could indicate gaps in the verification processes for company registrations, potentially allowing unverified entities to operate large commercial vehicles. The focus on the Punjabi community adds a layer of complexity, pointing to broader issues of migration and documentation in the United States.
This situation underscores the importance of robust systems for tracking and managing corporate entities, especially in sectors critical to national infrastructure like transportation. As debates around immigration and security continue, such allegations may fuel discussions on policy reforms and enforcement measures to ensure public safety and regulatory compliance.
