Taxes added to middle and lower class to pay for the huge cuts for the top 5%
It’s disheartening to see that many people still don’t understand how taxes work. I often hear misguided statements like, “I didn’t pay anything last year, I got money back.” It’s crucial to realize that a tax refund doesn’t mean you didn’t pay any taxes. It simply means that you overpaid throughout the year, and the government is returning the excess amount. However, with the current financial situation and the need for more funds, we need to get used to paying more taxes. The government requires money, and it has already been spent.… Continue reading
Man Posted YouTube Video With Father’s Severed Head While Ranting About Joe Biden
In recent years, we have witnessed a disturbing shift in the political landscape. What was once considered outrageous and aberrant behavior has become disturbingly normalized within certain political circles. One such example is the case of a man who posted a YouTube video with his father’s severed head while ranting about Joe Biden. It is an appalling and deeply disturbing act that highlights the extent to which our society has been poisoned by lies and misinformation.
It is important to recognize that this individual is clearly mentally unwell.… Continue reading
Ohio, Michigan Republicans In Released Audio: “Endgame” Is To Ban Trans Care “For Everyone”
In recent news, shocking audio has emerged of Ohio and Michigan Republicans discussing their plans to ban transgender care “for everyone.” This revelation is deeply troubling and highlights the dangerous agenda that some politicians are pushing, despite claims of being the party of freedom and limited government.
The blatant disregard for personal freedoms and the desire to control individuals’ lives is truly alarming. It is reminiscent of the deceptive tactics employed by certain pregnancy centers in conservative states, which posed as abortion clinics. It seems that these politicians will stop at nothing to impose their beliefs on the American people, regardless of the consequences.… Continue reading
Tesla shares took a significant slide recently after a judge voided Elon Musk’s jaw-dropping $56 billion compensation package. Judge Kathaleen McCormick ruled that Richard Tornetta had successfully proven that Musk “controlled Tesla” and that the process leading to the board’s approval of his compensation was “deeply flawed.” This decision raises several questions about Musk’s authority and accountability within the company.
One of the key issues highlighted by Judge McCormick was Musk’s extensive ties with individuals involved in negotiating on Tesla’s behalf. These individuals included management members who were apparently beholden to Musk. For example, General Counsel Todd Maron, who once served as Musk’s divorce attorney, was among those involved.… Continue reading
As someone who enjoys observing the absurdity and cognitive dissonance displayed by right-wingers, I couldn’t help but chuckle at the recent claim that the Super Bowl is rigged so that Taylor Swift can endorse Joe Biden. I mean, really? Are these people going full-fledged dumbass or what?
First of all, let’s address the idea that Republicans are supposed to be boycotting the NFL. Remember when they were all up in arms over players kneeling during the national anthem? I guess that boycott conveniently went out the window when it comes to conspiracy theories about Taylor Swift and Biden endorsements.
But the question remains, why on earth would Taylor Swift need the Super Bowl in order to endorse Biden?… Continue reading
Republicans Who Denounced Biden For Using Too Many Executive Orders Now Urge Him To Use Executive Orders Because They Don’t Want To Legislate
The hypocrisy of some Republicans never ceases to amaze me. It seems that when it comes to criticizing President Biden, their principles conveniently go out the window. Just a few months ago, they were denouncing Biden for using too many executive orders, claiming that he was overstepping his authority and acting like a dictator. But now, they are urging him to use executive orders because they simply don’t want to do their job and legislate.
It’s ironic how they criticized Biden for his use of executive orders, conveniently forgetting that their beloved former president, Donald Trump, used even more executive orders during his time in office.… Continue reading
So when the supreme court rules, women’s wombs are jurisdiction of the federal government. You all clap and cheer along? But when they rule, the federal government has jurisdiction over a national border. You all boo and threaten to secede? It’s almost as if you don’t care about “law and order.”
These are the thoughts that have been on my mind lately as I observe the conflicting reactions when it comes to different Supreme Court rulings. On one hand, we see the celebration and support when the court upholds laws that restrict a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body.… Continue reading
Just the GOP trying to legislate the death of Democracy
It honestly baffles me how the American political system operates. As an outsider, I can’t help but notice the blatant barriers that are put in place to discourage people from voting. In my country, the Netherlands, the government sends the ballot to your home address automatically once you turn 18. There’s no need to register, stand in long lines, or travel great distances. Voting is accessible and convenient. It seems as though the US government is actively working against the idea of democracy.
What is even more concerning is the Republican Party’s continuous effort to suppress the vote.… Continue reading
23andMe, once hailed as a revolutionary company in the field of genetic testing, has experienced a staggering fall from grace. In 2021, the company reached its peak valuation of $6 billion, making its CEO, Anne Wojcicki, a self-made billionaire. However, that valuation has now collapsed by 98%, with 23andMe’s stock facing the threat of being delisted from Nasdaq. It seems that the allure of this once-popular company has faded, leaving many to question its model and future prospects.
One of the key challenges for 23andMe lies in the nature of its product. DNA testing is typically a one-time use service, meaning that once customers have taken the test and received their results, there is little incentive for them to continue using the service.… Continue reading
Just the GOP trying to legislate the death of Democracy
As I reflect on the current state of our nation’s political landscape, I can’t help but feel a deep sense of concern and frustration. It seems that the Republican Party, or GOP, is hell-bent on dismantling the very foundation of our democracy. From attempts to overturn election results to proposing laws that would undermine the power of the people, it’s clear that their actions are a dangerous threat to the principles we hold dear.
One of the most alarming incidents that comes to mind is the involvement of individuals who proudly identify as J6ers.… Continue reading
