Why do people buy pizza with EBT?

Because cauliflower is five dollars a head and you can buy five pizzas with the same money.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

Don’t call it "Alligator Alcatraz".

Call it a concentration camp, because that is what it is.

No, we're not calling it Alligator Alcatraz.

It's a Florida concentration camp.
