BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

So MAGA needs to run down and buy a Tesla to support Musk, but their disabled vet neighbor who just lost his job at the VA is a lazy SOB taking advantage of a bloated government and deserves to be unemployed. They do worship their heroes to the extreme.

They do seem like inconsistent positions, but the attacks on teachers was really about dismantling public schools to get taxpayer dollars for home schoolers and private charter schools run by charlatans.
