Idaho Senator pushed harsh immigration bills. Husband loses 80% of income from boycotts from farmers
She's calling it economic terrorism
Idaho State Senator Glenneda Zuiderveld campaigned on "enforcement first" and pushed legislation to crack down on the very immigrant workers that power Idaho’s dairy industry.
She didn't think the consequences would ever reach her own dinner table.She was wrong.In a massive display of "Market Correction" (or as most of us call it, FAFO), the local dairy farms in her district did something she never expected: they exercised their free-market right to stop funding the people trying to destroy their business.
Glenneda’s husband, Tom Zuiderveld, was a top salesman for a lube and oil company. His clients? The local dairies. When Glenneda refused to back down on policies that would bankrupt these farms, the dairies fired Tom.

I wonder if that is what the poor call it when the rethugs rig the entire system to ensure the poor both fail in their attempts to get out of poverty, as well as making sure that the poor remain as the cheap labor that the rich need to survive?
You know, like the policies that you are voting for, Senator... 
That had better not be all that they suffer.
Some seats are going to flip in '26 and '28....
