A bar in Idaho is getting pummeled with one-star reviews online after offering customers “free beer for one month” if they provide proof of having assisted Immigration and Customs Enforcement in deporting an undocumented migrant.

“ALERT: Anyone who helps ICE identify and ultimately deport an illegal from Idaho gets FREE BEER FOR ONE MONTH at Old State Saloon!” reads an online post Saturday from Old State Saloon, a bar and grill in Eagle, Idaho.

The bar’s Google page was immediately flooded with negative reviews, many of which staff at Old State Saloon responded to, calling reviewers “angry progressive liberals” and “liars.”

“And the 1 star reviews roll in from the loser LEFT,” reads another post from the Old State Saloon X account.

One such one-star review reads: “Don’t bother. Place is trashy and overly political.” Old State Saloon staff, in turn, responded to the review.

“Another liar. Politics is not our entire personality. We have locally focussed food and entertainment along with organic coffee that is FREE for veterans!” reads the response from Old State Saloon.

“We host home school meetups, line dancing lessons, karaoke nights, etc. [You] must be an angry progressive liberal to be so sensitive and such a liar.”

Old State Saloon even resorted to attacking one-star reviews that made no mention of the bar’s political activism, such as from one reviewer who called the food “super greasy.”

“Liar,” Old State Saloon responded. “You never came to Old State Saloon. Let me guess, another lib? All you people do is lie, lie, lie.”

The post gained enough traction that the official X account for the Department of Homeland Security reported Old State Saloon’s initial post, drawing even more attention to Old State Saloon from both supporters and critics alike.

“Oh so this is where the Nazis hang out in Idaho?” wrote X user “Wu Tang is for the Children,” a popular political and cultural commentator who’s amassed more than 281,000 followers.
