Ring footage shows an agent pulling his gun on her, after which he shoves her down multiple times, pushes her back into house & slams the door.

All because she was asking for proof of a warrant. They refused to even give their names & badge numbers.

Yeah, they're not hiring the best and the brightest here but they are hiring the most supremacist and this is what happens when you let that take over.

I'd say that they could sue but given how the courts have been stacked, they really stand no chance.

They are forgiving 60k of student loan debt. You know who has 60k in student loans besides active students? Graduated students on their why to almost paying off that quarter million student loan or droppouts. Not the brightest by design.

What are you talking about? They blocked all loan forgiveness that Biden was attempting to provide.

They're forgiving student loan debts as a signing bonus for ICE agents.

Legalized bribery.

On top of a large cash signing bonus, or so I've heard

Plus $7/per person, up to $3,000

I mean it's a solid plan. I doubt there's a lot of bonuses to be given out there, at least legitimately.
