This is from Newsweek and this is funny he actually thought he could pull this off.

witter users mocked and criticized Representative Devin Nunes after the California Republican reported that he was a farmer because he owned a "farm," reported to be just about 100 square feet, that brings in no income.

The hashtag #ImAFarmerLikeNunes trended on Twitter Thursday, as social media users called out the congressman for attempting to equate himself with rural farmers. According the The Sacramento Bee, Democrats accused Nunes of being a "fake farmer" over a year ago, after he described himself as such on campaign materials and profiles. Although his financial disclosures dating back to 2007 never declared a farm as part of his assets or agriculture earnings, his latest disclosure listed the plot of land or "farm" as an asset worth less than $15,000.

"100 square foot? That is area. Area is squared, length times width. Devy's farm is 10 foot by 10 foot," Twitter user @Russel_nelson pointed out. "What kind of tractor you reckon that takes?" he asked, sharing a GIF of a child crashing a small John Deere.

Well, if you get right down to it, I guess its a matter of perspective. My kids had a farm in their room at one time. It was about a 12" x 18" plastic box full of dirt, and ants.
And, by his logic, I'm a rancher. I have 5 acres with a livestock on them. Yep, I raise a horse. Or, I feed one anyhow......

What work is involved in an ant farm? Toss a dab of food, or a few bugs in, and let them do the work. Ants are really pretty cool if you ask me. Amazing critters!
