Incredible scene in Seoul tonight as President Yoon Suk Yeol’s supporters are storming the Seoul courthouse in response to his arrest. They are smashing the windows and vandalising the offices.

So I'm Zillow-browsing for fun, and I happened across a $42,000,000 ranch... and its main selling point is literally "We took this land from the Indians in a battle."

People pointing out that "Trump started it" are missing the point.
Millions of young Americans judge the real and immediate impacts to their lives.
A ban didn't happen during Trump.
A Dem administration did, a direct impact on many young American's lives.
And now Trump may bring it back.
