I identified myself as a US citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out. Even after I complied, I was taken to a detention center and held for 3 days without charges. No phone call, no lawyer, no medical care

In the first quarter of 2025, farm bankruptcies increased by 95%
Remember: the policies leading to bankruptcy are purposeful. Our food supply is in danger…there is no better way to bring a country to its knees than having control of its food supply.

I don’t support assaulting officers—unless they’re committing crimes and you’re trying to protect a third party—but I admit this meme is funny.
It’s partly funny because it’s exactly why this man will be acquitted, and Bondi and Pirro will look like the fascist toadies they are.

But Dayton, Ohio decided to dump the burden on the public school kids instead and prioritized school buses for the private schools.
