It's interesting to me how the elections are only not to be trusted if the Democrats win. I wonder how the Republicans managed to gain control of all branches of the Federal government.🤷‍♀️

Why, yes! That is one of intended outcomes. Less billionaires and more money to do things like infrastructure improvements, support for the poor, and so on.

Most billionaire wealth isn't in yachts or jewelry — that's just a few percent of it. Most is productive business capital: companies that employ people, build things, and fund research. Tax that wealth and you're taxing the businesses that employ us all. Cato's Adam Michel explains.

Next Tucker will explain why Putin was justified in annexing Crimea and deserves most of if not all of Ukaine.

Tucker: “I never understood why 🇬🇧 fought World War 2?” 😕 Rees-Mogg: “It was good vs. evil…We did the right thing…” Tucker: “Has 🇬🇧 benefitted?” RM: “We defeated Hitler… We’d all be speaking German…” Tucker: “Who cares?” 🤔

Time to wake up, American workers.

One of my favorites. Corporate welfare is socialism. When you live in a third-world nation. Pay discrepancy CEO vs. average worker. Japan 11:1 Germany 12:1 France 15:1 Italy 20:1 Canada 20:1 Britain 22:1 Mexico 47:1 Venezuela 50:1 U.S. 475:1 U.S. in 1970 20:1

The only falsehood in his statement is in the first sentence. Every word out of his mouth is FAKE NEWS, a cancer and a threat to our National Security. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

So if I understand this correctly, we are selling Israel $2.8B worth of bombs, which Israel will pay for with a grant of $2.8B from US taxpayers (ie, us). In effect, it is a gift. Have I got that right?

Why are people even acting as if this is a serious thing? We all know it's just another Trumpism, like Mexico will pay for the wall and the 2024 election was stolen and and and.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

If only people with an understanding of how our democracy works could vote, DJT would never have won an election.

Ann Coulter is back to promoting Donald Trump. This can only mean she saw dollar signs as she has no morality or conscience.

Homeland Security at TSA PreCheck in Atlanta is a joke. He only asked to see my boarding pass and didn't have me remove my hat!?! Good thing I'm not a terrorist. I feel so much safer with them there. /s/

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

I would never condone violence, but I clearly get what drove Luigi Mangione. In 5 days, I leave the country for 6 months. I have been trying for 3 weeks to obtain a vacation override from United Healthcare. It has been like being in a Groundhog Day movie written by Kafka.
