backhoe

And until the bulldozers and backhoes showed up this week, the president had explicitly denied the White House’s structure would be affected.

On Friday, as the backhoe put the remnants of that life into a dumpster, Andres Reyes sat across the street on the steps of an apartment building.

We passed by a checkpoint manned by the National Guard and the LAPD, then had to stop for 20 minutes on a narrow hillside road as a backhoe was unloaded from a flatbed truck.

On a recent Sunday, huge tractors, backhoes and trucks blazed down a two-lane country highway, blaring their horns on their way to a “Farmers for Trump” rally near Hilmar.

A few days later, detectives found the stolen backhoe at a truck stop in Tulare.
