"ICE agents detained over 200 people in militarized raids on two large farms in Carpinteria and Camarillo, including a number of US citizen workers and protesters who gathered outside the facilities in response to the raids. As of Saturday morning, at least two of the abducted citizens were still reported missing by loved ones and colleagues.

“Many workers-including US citizens, were held by federal authorities at the farm for 8 hours or more,” the United Farm Workers union said in a statement. “US citizen workers report only being released after they were forced to delete photos and videos of the raid from their phones.”"

next month: We can't find anyone to pick our fruits and veggies! What do!?

Cook up a new conspiracy fiction about how fruits and vegetables are actually bad for us and the most healthy meal for Americans is red meat and potatoes. Something something the liburul death machine has been playing us for generations.
