2024 Elections.

It has been eight months since U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents detained Yamile Alcantu, and her partner of 20 years, Wayne DeMario, has been in a lot of pain.

He was observing after Alex Pretti’s killing. Feds detained him at gunpoint, sampled his DNA, scanned his face, and cloned his phone.

Why a leopard. Previously.

“Those are 1,600 Kentuckians that lost their jobs solely because of Donald Trump pushing that big, ugly bill, eliminating the credits that had people interested and excited to buy EVs,” he told the New York Times.

“I bet many, if not most, of them voted for him, and he basically fired them.”

Hardin County, where Glendale is, overwhelmingly supported Trump in 2024 with the Republican getting 64% of the vote.

“I told [lawmakers] straight up: South Texas will never be red again,” said Mario Guerrero, the CEO of the South Texas Builders Association, a Trump voter who traveled to Washington last week.

He urged the administration and lawmakers to ease up on enforcement at construction sites, warning that employees are afraid to go to work.

Nobody in Wilder, Idaho expected this. The tiny farming town of 1,725 people—where nine out of ten voters backed Donald Trump in 2024—is now scrambling to figure out what comes next after federal immigration agents swept through in mid-October and arrested more than 100 Hispanic workers at a local horse racetrack. So far, 75 people have been deported, and the farms that keep this place running are facing a labour shortage with no easy fix in sight.

"Being here, in solidarity, is part of the repair work in my own soul,” said Rev. Rob Schenck, an Evangelical minister who spent decades commingling church and state to advance conservative causes like the anti-abortion movement. One example: Schenck’s organization, Faith and Action in the Nation’s Capital, created “Operation Higher Court,” which trained wealthy couples as “stealth missionaries” to befriend Supreme Court justices to preserve, in his words, a Christian nation.

Now, he says he must confront the damage he helped cause, including what he believes was his role in delivering “the entities that are now inflicting all of this suffering on so many people”—extending to the rise of President Donald Trump. “We made this terrible deal with Donald Trump because we were already demoralized,” he told Mother Jones in 2018. “He didn’t demoralize us—he is the evidence of our demoralization.”

After the West Virginia governor approved a bill that would allow citizens to drink unpasteurised milk, several legislators toasted the new law with a glass and promptly fell ill.

“I’m not feeling that great,” said Pat McGeehan, who said he was handed a glass of milk in a corridor of the capitol building in Charleston, shortly after the bill was signed into law.

In a remarkable display of open government, Mr McGeehan allowed a crew from WSAZ, a local television station, to interview him as he lay prone upon a sofa in his office, eyes closed, a patina of sweat upon his pale face.

“I think it’s probably just some sort of bad stomach virus,” he said. “There is definitely some other colleagues that have similar symptoms.”

Mr McGeehan has named Scott Cadle, a Republican, as the man who supplied him with the milk, an act which may technically have been in breach of the law.

Mr Cadle, who also fell ill, had sponsored the bill, approved last week by the governor, which allows for “herd sharing” agreements. It would allow West Virginians to buy a share in a cow, goat or other “milk producing animal” and receive its milk raw.

First they must sign a statement acknowledging the “dangers of consuming raw milk that may contain bacteria, such as brucella,campylobacter,listeria,salmonella and E. coli”.

An investigation into the causes of the stomach upset is now under way.

Allison Adler, a spokeswoman for the department of public health, said that “the distribution of raw milk was in violation of the law and that it may have caused an outbreak of disease”.

Reportedly, Ceballos misunderstood the meaning of that residency and thought he was authorized to register to vote. And vote he did, in several elections, and always as a staunch Republican. He voted for Donald Trump in all of the last three Presidential elections. He believes he also voted for Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach all four times he ran for election in the state as well. But holding a green card does not authorize him to participate in voting and now the 54 year old is facing both felony charges for fraud brought by Kobach himself, as well as deportation from the Trump administration that he and most of his town voted into office.

The trade war was supposed to bring back jobs… but it somehow backfired on America’s soybean farmers. 😬

In this video, I break down how a huge global market vanished almost overnight, why bailouts suddenly became the only lifeline, and how this whole situation turned into socialism for rich soyboys.
