This haunting photograph from 1936 captures a penny auction at a foreclosed farm in Michigan, one of the most defiant and ingenious acts of resistance to emerge during the Great Depression. When banks repossessed farms after families could no longer meet their mortgage payments, local communities often took matters into their own hands.

Farmers would gather in large groups and agree beforehand to bid only pennies on each item — from livestock to land — driving the auction prices down to virtually nothing. The final “buyer,” usually a trusted neighbor, would then return the property to the original owner, ensuring the family could remain on their land.

The nooses seen hanging in the background weren’t decorative; they served as chilling warnings to outsiders who might attempt to outbid the crowd. These were not empty threats — solidarity and survival left little room for betrayal.

The penny auctions became powerful symbols of rural unity and defiance. They weren’t just about sa

Ursula Von Der Leyen commits to "vaccinating" over 500 million children with Bill Gates.

“I’m pleased to pledge $290M for Gavi, the vaccine alliance. Together with Gavi, we have the goal to vaccinate these children by 2030”

ME: Ursula Von Der Leyen = Another DEMON, MONSTER.

IT IS TIME THAT PATRIOTS GO OWN THESE VILE LEFTIST PUKE ACTORS, TOTALLY CORRUPT POLITICIANS, AND DUMBA$$ LIBTARDS THAT SAY WARTIME PRESIDENT TRUMP NEEDED THE APPROVAL OF CONGRESS TO GO AFTER MADURO.
(Many of them are surely profiting from the narcotics & Human trafficking trade or are pedophiles themselves or both.)

WARTIME PRESIDENT TRUMP ALREADY HAS THE APPROVAL OF CONGRESS.
IT'S CALLED "THE AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF MILITARY FORCE" APPROVED BY CONGRESS AFTER 9/11 (AUMF 2001) AND IT HAS NOT BEEN RESCINDED.

IN FACT, THE AUMF IS A FORMAL DECLARATION OF WAR - THE WAR AGAINST TERROR,
BUT IT'S BIGGER THAN A DECLARATION OF WAR, BECAUSE
DECLARATIONS OF WAR ARE AGAINST SPECIFIC NATIONS.

THE AUMF, BY COMPARISON, IS GLOBAL.
WE CAN STRIKE TERRORISTS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.
ANY NATION.
ANY TIME.
NO WARNING.

IT'S THE GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR.

SHOVE THEIR FAKE ARGUMENTS & IGNORANCE IN THEIR FACES!

That's what I'm talking about!
