We Served Our Great Country, Now The Democrats Want to Destroy It

Article Title: Stephen Miller Slams Democrats for Criticizing Arrest of Judge for Allegedly Shielding Migrant

Article Excerpt: "...The statement from Miller comes as Democrats such as Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) have criticized the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan, whom the FBI arrested on charges of obstructing the arrest of an illegal alien. Miller wrote: Democrats spent the last 8 years stripping Americans of due process to jail them for protected political activity; illegally spying on the Trump Campaign; manipulating and fabricating intelligence and then criminally leaking it for partisan gain; using the FBI and Intelligence apparatus to pursue political enemies; launching a coup against President Trump and his Administration; persecuting President Trump, his family, his aides and his supporters; censoring and deplatforming and blacklisting the opposition; removing opposition candidates from the ballot; maliciously fabricating false allegations to inflict outrageous financial punishments; raiding President Trump’s home and seizing his property; and weaponizing the entire legal system for the sole objective of incarcerating the Democrat Party’s chief political rival and seeking to illegally obstruct and rig the 2024 election.

Miller continued to highlight how Democrats “orchestrated and engineered a mass invasion of the United States by foreign cartels and enemy terrorists.” “And now these same Democrats howl with rage when the invasion is returned and those who criminally harbor the invaders and feloniously obstruct their removal are held accountable under law,” Miller continued. ..."

Property Tax Breaks Disabled Veterans Are Eligible For in Each State

Article Title: Property Tax Breaks Disabled Veterans Are Eligible For in Each State

Article Excerpt: "... Owning a home comes with financial responsibilities, but every state offers property tax exemptions to help disabled veterans save money.

This type of homeowner money move can reduce your home’s taxable value, significantly lowering your annual property tax bill. The specifics vary by state, but most programs require a service-connected disability rating from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Some states provide full exemptions, while others offer reduced savings based on disability percentage or income level. Here’s a breakdown of the property tax relief options available in every state. ...Alabama: Veterans with a 100% disability rating or who are over the age of 65 are fully exempt from property taxes on their primary residence.
Alaska: Qualifying veterans with a 50% or higher disability rating receive an exemption up to the first $150,000 of their home’s assessed value."

With the alert signal in place, Paul Revere, a silversmith dedicated to the cause of independence, mounted a borrowed horse and embarked on a midnight journey that became a defining moment in American history.

The dangerous mission was threefold. First, sound the alarm for colonists in farms and villages throughout the Massachusetts countryside. On the way, stop in Lexington to inform the leaders of the colonial resistance, Samuel Adams and John Hancock, that the British were coming to arrest them. Finally, prevent the seizure of military provisions and munitions stored a few miles west in the town of Concord.

Disregarding personal peril or consequence, Paul Revere rode with urgency..."
