"The House GOP bill would entail a large upward transfer of resources. The bill, which would continue Trump's 2017 tax law and add new tax giveaways for wealthy investors, heirs, and others, would deliver a big tax cut to those in the highest income brackets. According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the tax cuts enjoyed by those in the bottom 20 percent in 2027 would be one seven-hundredth the size of those reaped by the top 1 percent."

The Anti-FDR.

I'm going to need you to stop worrying about stuff that actually matters to American. Please fixate on having more genders than the color of the rainbow and people who have been killing each other for 3,000 years over 0.14% of the world's land mass (an objectively cruddy piece of land mass at that).

All roads lead to the imaginary, nonexistent nation that never existed called Palestine. Give the man a hand!

You know who I'd vote for? Someone who had the guts to tell Israel to go fuck themselves.

Yeah, Dems weren't far enough to the left. That's what cost them the election.

Because the vast majority of Americans are on board with cozying up to Islamist terrorists. And that's the way the GOP would spin it.

If you and the rest of the pro-Hamas crowd don't see that, I certainly can't make you.

P.S. I guess Palestine must be free. Since not a peep to be heard from the useful idiots who helped cost Dems the election by shutting down highways, bridges, college campuses, etc for about a year under Biden.

Maybe Trump really will get his Nobel Peace Prize. May not be many Palestinians left to thank him.

A duh ... Young men are ditching the Dems in record numbers. Probably because not enough genders ...

Mr. Musk and Mr. Trump did not have a feud five days ago and might not have a feud five days from now. Until proven otherwise, all of this is theater. Think of it as the political version of professional wrestling. For a few hours, everyone was diverted by the spectacle of a brawl between the world's richest man and its most powerful person.

Mr. Trump took a break from tariffs and deportations. For Mr. Musk, the episode was even more valuable. His wealth comes from the promise that Tesla, his electric car company, will own a significant slice of the self-driving future. The launch of Tesla's robotaxi business is next week in Austin. Skepticism abounds. The more attention it gets, the bigger a disappointment it could be.

Mr. Musk's SpaceX business is even more problematic. For all its promise to set up colonies on Mars, it is having trouble with the basics. The ninth flight test of SpaceX's Starship program a few days ago saw both the reusable booster exploding and, 40 minutes later, the rocket itself blowing up. It wasn't the first such failure either.

Starlink isn't going anywhere either.

Not for the moment.

Seems un-American, really ...

I wouldn't self identify. Eff themselves [myself].

FTFY.

That would be in keeping with your "cut off my nose to spite my face" outlook on life (Jill Stein 2028!).

But many of those folks stand to lose benefits they accrued over the course of decades of work if they don't come forward, and to be blacklisted from all sorts of civilian employment in the future.

Trumpanzee and Elon get up there with their face-lifts, botox etc etc etc and you bawl outloud about their pretentious phoniness and if a transman does the same with their cosmetic and phoney branding and they are the poor persecuted masses... give me a break.

Active Duty Transgender Soldiers Face Deadline to Self Identify Today

Why do they have to self-identify? Don't troops have to undergo physical examinations before enlisting and routine physicals thereafter?

Seems like Trump is just setting the stage for dishonorable discharges for those who don't self-identify, thereby stripping them of all benefits. Also resulting in a severe hit for future civilian employment prospects.

Also, a rule of thumb is that if the person has lower genitalia protruding out larger than a thumb, they might be a man, baby!

How to avoid confirmation bias:
* Actively seek out diverse perspectives: Expose yourself to different viewpoints and information sources, even those that contradict your own.
* Challenge your assumptions: Ask "What if I'm wrong?" and consider evidence that might disprove current beliefs.
* Be critical of all information: Evaluate evidence objectively, regardless of whether it supports your views.
* Consider the opposite: When testing a hypothesis, consider whether alternatives or the negative of the hypothesis might be true.

9 out of 10 Hamas Lovers will plonk you for this "blasphemy."

Considering no Dem was ever going to risk hiring her for PR work after she helped cover for Joe ...

Not that the people who, through action or inaction, helped the adjudicated rapist, insurrectionist, 34-time convicted felon become president would actually care.

Musk's allegation came just minutes after Trump threatened to cancel government contracts with Musk's companies, calling him "crazy" and escalating an explosive feud between the two former allies. Musk, the world's richest person who was granted extraordinary access to Trump's government after he was elected, has criticized the "big, beautiful" spending bill Trump is trying to push through Congress.

The billionaire tech and media mogul suggested earlier Thursday that Trump would not have gotten elected last fall without him and called him ungrateful.

After alienating the left, Musk has decided to T off the right.

This seems like a sound business decision.

If you make everybody hate you, it all cancels out.

Will he meet the Chinese Trump? Causing our universe to implode?

Kamala received 6 million fewer votes in 2024 than Joe in 2020.

American voters decided to FA, now we all get to FO.

Rumor has it that OceanGate is looking into this product for their next submersible craft.

Yes, as I said, blood libel.

By the Jews who you accuse of false flagging the Palestinians' October 7th attacks targeting, raping and murdering 1,200 civilian men, women, and children.

But you hold no malice to the Jews. It's just that the Jews do no right, and the Palestinians never do wrong. But you hold no malice to the Jews.

All you have added to this conversation are snide, dis-proven lies.
#30 | Posted by redlightrobot

Dude, you've claimed that the Jews kill Palestinian children to drink their blood.

A claim so well known as being false, that it is one of the best known examples of libel. It is "Blood Libel"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_libel.

You can't even tell who is Hamas, let alone count higher than two on your flippers.
#30 | Posted by redlightrobot

The events leading to October 7th appear to involve Nethanyahu's planning, funding and execution of a Zionist "false flag" .
#28 | Posted by redlightrobot

And there it is. The Jews slaughtered themselves on October 7th.

The Palestinians are always innocent. Even when we see them on video they shot themselves of them committing the atrocities.

And those Palestinians shooting their guns in the air, handing out sweets, and shouting "Aloha, Snackbar" on October 7th? Crisis actors, of course. Celebrating the big fat nothing that happened that day. Probably Jewish actors, at that. Because the Jews run Hollywood.

you already know that I hold no malice toward Jewish people
#24 | Posted by redlightrobot

No, you hold them no malice. You just deny Palestinian atrocities, war crimes, and genocidal goals. So you can feign that Israel is not acting in reasonable self-defense.

You just expect the Jews to lie down so you can hold them under your boot, so the Palestinians can kick them in the teeth. No malice to be found.

You can't produce a number because you know how utterly fabricated your defense of genocide factually is.
#21 | Posted by redlightrobot

What do numbers matter? You've created an entire alternate reality where the Palestinians had just run over to Israel to borrow a cup of sugar on October 7th and the evil J-O-O-S opened fire with both barrels. Because they are keto, and don't like carbs.

Anyway, you guys had fun on October 7th.

Hamas used it's military branch to attack mainly IDF.
#18 | Posted by redlightrobot

Yes, the IDF chilling to tunes at a music festival.

Anyway, you guys got the president you wanted. Hope it works out for you. :)

You still deny it's a genocide.

A quadrupling of the Palestinian population in the last 80 years would suggest that to be the case

A facepalm has been planted in your name.
#12 | Posted by redlightrobot

Is the facepalm located near your denial of the Palestinians hunting down, raping, and murdering 1,200 civilian men, women, and children on October 7th?
