Since the current administration has not relieved the price pressures of groceries, housing, interest rate. There should be a movement for not paying taxes/filing taxes. If you're not getting anything, why should you pay for nothing?

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

US BUDGET DEFICIT SOARS The deficit jumped 19% to $291B in July. This is despite $21B collected from Americans due to higher import taxes, which led to higher costs on goods like furniture, footwear, and auto parts. The deficit for 2025 is already $1.63 trillion, up 7% from the last year.

Among our founders’ grievances: The king “obstructed Admin of Justice…made Judges dependent on his Will…sent swarms of Officers to harrass our people…cut off Trade w/the world…deprived us…of the benefits of Trial by Jury…transported us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences…” Sound familiar?

“…it was stunning to realize how closely many of the grievances our founders asserted toward King George III mirror the issues we are facing with the tyrannical despot currently occupying our White House.” www.americaamerica.news/p/independen...

The rich are partying on yachts and building bunkers while the poor are drowning in floods, fleeing bombs, working three jobs to survive. they flaunt their wealth like it’s harmless. but in a world on fire, luxury is violence. no one should live like a god while others can’t drink clean

The correct way to connect the authoritarian presence in LA and the Big Beautiful Bill is that the bill gives the government the resources to do this in dozens of cities at once. So if you don't like what's happening in LA, it's coming to your town if the bill passes.

The “big, beautiful” bill ain’t beautiful—it’s bullshit. House Republicans just voted for the largest cut to SNAP & Medicaid in U.S. history—turning their backs on their own damn constituents: the working people they were sent here to represent. They don’t serve the people. They serve the rich.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

The bodies of 4 soldiers arrived at Dover Air force base. Normally a president would be there to receive them. Tornadoes & violent wind flattened homes & buildings from Oklahoma to Indiana killing at least 7 Normally a president would tour the area & see how to help Trump is golfing
