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.

The end of due process for immigrants is the end of due process for citizens.

Kamala Harris warned us that Trump would turn the military against civilians. She warned us that he would pursue Project 2025. The media mocked her, but she was dead right about both.

Federal Agents Handcuff Chicago Alderperson At Hospital ER In another incident caught on video Friday, federal agents inside a car randomly threw tear gas into a Logan Square street while people β€” including a 2-year-old β€” were outside nearby.

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities.

These are the people now getting huge tax cuts β€” paid for by cuts to health care for millions of people.

I don’t support assaulting officersβ€”unless they’re committing crimes and you’re trying to protect a third partyβ€”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.

There is no liking this version of our country.

If you can afford to send your kid to a private school, then you can drive them or pay for their Ubers.

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

A Long Island man driving to work gets handcuffed by ICE β€” despite being U.S. citizen A 23-year-old electrician from Brentwood is speaking out after a disturbing encounter with federal immigration agents left him handcuffed and shaken, despite being a U.S. citizen. Elzon Lemus says he ...

A traffic stop is causing outrage, after a young man born and raised on Long Island was pulled over and searched by ICE agents. He said it was simply because he’s Latino. When ICE found out he’s a U.S. citizen, they let him goβ€”without giving an explanation or apologyβ€”but the damage was already done.

Remarkable.

MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful."

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.
