Country legend Zach Bryan has released a song that puts country over his own bank account.

The backlash from country fans will be massive- they’ll force him off country radio like they did to the Dixie Chicks but he doesn’t need radio access anymore

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Greg Abbott 7 @GregAbbott_TX
I fully authorized the President to call up 400 members of the Texas National Guard to ensure safety for federal officials.
You can either fully enforce protection for federal employees or get out of the way and let Texas Guard do it.

Gavin Newsom • @GavinNewsom
STATES CANNOT INVADE ONE ANOTHER.
This is so simple - so fundamental to America -- I cannot believe I have to type those words.
America is on the brink of martial law.
