Well, Idaho just put itself on the map for something other than potatoes and breathtaking mountain views â this time, itâs free beer for helping ICE do what the federal government shouldâve been doing all along. And letâs be honest: the fact that this came from a saloon called The Old State is just poetic.
In a move that managed to trigger the entire blue-check brigade and sell out a few rounds of lager, The Old State Saloon in Eagle, Idaho, went viral after posting a bold offer: help ICE track down and deport an illegal immigrant, and you get a month of free beer. Thatâs right â an actual incentive for doing what used to be called enforcing the law. Not storming a border, not acting like a vigilante â simply helping federal agents do their jobs in a sanctuary-friendly world thatâs made them practically invisible.
And for those keeping score at home, the bar made it crystal clear: if you help deport more than one, the beer keeps flowing. Thatâs right. Multiple illegals deported? Multiple months on the house. And to claim your reward? Just send your evidence â videos, photos, whatever ICE confirms â to a handy little inbox at [email protected]. Efficient. Practical. Infuriating for the left.
Naturally, it didnât take long for the usual suspects to cry foul. âRacist!â they screamed. âXenophobic!â they wailed. Some even called for the bar to be canceled, because nothing says âtoleranceâ like trying to destroy a small business that doesnât worship at the altar of open borders. But the Old State didnât back down â they leaned in, posting screenshots of the negative Google reviews with the caption â1 star reviews roll in from the loser LEFT.â Thatâs a marketing strategy no MBA program teaches, but clearly, itâs working.
Old State Saloon in Idaho is offering free drinks for anyone that helps the Gestapo make arrests.
I hope that it drives the Old State Saloon to bankruptcy. But theyâll probably find an Evangelical Christian church in Eagle to hold a fundraiser to bail them out.
The saloonâs X bio even added a cherry on top: âLiberals around the world hate us.â And if thatâs not the kind of endorsement that sells beer, what is?
Oh, and letâs not forget Ryan Spoon â vice chair of the Ada County GOP â whoâs already cashed in on the offer. The guy turned in proof of helping ICE apprehend someone allegedly in the country illegally, and now he gets unlimited pours from 20 draft options. Cheers to civic duty, Idaho-style.
But wait, it gets better. Conservative Gen Z influencer Bo Loudon chimed in too, calling the whole thing âan incredible idea,â and adding, âThis is why I love the United States.â I mean, when a 20-something with a mullet and 300,000 followers says youâve nailed it, thatâs the American dream in action.
And for anyone who thinks this was just some spontaneous PR stunt â meet Mark Fitzpatrick, the barâs owner. This isnât his first culture war rodeo. In 2024, Fitzpatrick launched Heterosexual Awesomeness Month as a counterpoint to Pride Month, offering beer discounts for straight couples and selling shirts that read âMake America Straight Again.â Unsurprisingly, those shirts are selling out faster than Bud Light at a Trump rally.
So yes, The Old State Saloon isnât just serving drinks â itâs serving a message. One that says you donât have to apologize for believing in borders, law enforcement, and yes, even heterosexuality. Shocking, I know.
This isnât just a local bar trying to stir the pot â itâs a full-blown cultural rebellion disguised as a happy hour promotion. And judging by the reaction from the liberal media and the perpetually outraged crowd, it hit its target. Dead center.
