This👇. It’s not the immigrants, who pay an estimated $96.7billion in taxes, who are the freeloaders. It’s the rich who often use tax shelters and other loopholes to pay little or no tax at all. Revise the tax code. Close the loopholes. Tax the rich.

Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have a right to break the law." (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.)

"There just isn’t enough time. There’s only what we manage to make of it—what we build, what we protect, what we remember to carry to the car. The gas mask. The snacks. The question we forgot to ask. The name of the person taken." My latest.

“We ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experience to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism, and let freedom ring," Springsteen said. I hope it inspires other artists to use their voices in this urgent time. www.americaamerica.news/p/must-artis...

Haven’t had an Amazon account for nearly 9 years. Does anyone know if Siri still listens after Apple had to pay subscribers a few months back? 😒
"Hey Alexa, are you recording this?" Yes, the answer is yes. Amazon is killing its “Do Not Send Voice Recordings” privacy feature on March 28 as the company aims to bolster Alexa+, its new subscription assistant. Let's get into it...

US Judge Extends Order to Block DOGE From Treasury Department Data flip.it/I6eJQT When Judge Vargas asked Trump’s DOJ on Friday whether any DOGE-accessed information had been shared outside of the Treasury Department, he said: “The short answer on that is we don’t presently know.” #loligarchy

Where are our former Presidents? V-P’s, Chiefs of staff, military generals? We are looking at you, President Biden, President Obama, president Bush, president Clinton, VP, Harris, Secretary of State, Clinton, Secretary of State Kerry, Lloyd Austin, Mike Millie, Leon Panetta?
Kendrick Lamar showed more courage in the face of rising American tyranny than we’ve seen from ANY former American leader. If you swore an oath to protect this nation, where are you now? youtube.com/shorts/keNw6...
