What IS that? 1Nut's stage name?

Turns out she was an Intern werking for druggie/sex pervert Matt Gaetz.... so Trump's gotten into his leftovers.

INut posts a Deflection about the thead article whining that it's somehow a Deflection?

You can't make this stuff up!

"When taking a comprehensive view of taxation and income, ultra-high-net-worth individuals appear less taxed than the average American."

"The researchers also found that, overall, the amount of corporate tax paid by the top 400 on their businesses fell by one-third between the period 2014-2017 and the period 2018-2020.

In 2018, U.S. law slashed the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%.

As a result of the changing landscape, the authors found, the top 400 wealthiest own so much wealth that it amounts to one-fifth of the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP).

The authors cite data from Forbes magazine, which compiled its first list of the 400 richest Americans in 1982.

At the time, the top 400 owned 0.9% of total household wealth in the U.S., compared to 4.1% today. Using a different metric, the wealth of the top 400 in 1982 accounted for 2% of total U.S. GDP; now they control 20%."

What's hilarious in #3 is him not even grokking that he's referring to a song that parodies modern greed, not promotes it.

So much stupid, so little brains.

1Nut's obsession with DJT's ------- is getting embarrassing.

Perhaps he should just apply for WH Aide job.

"The big picture: Facing the worst economic polling of any president in the last decade, and with the midterm quickly approaching, Trump is actively trying to put money back in Americans' pockets.

Zoom in: In early September he promised $5,000 for every adult citizen if Republicans win the midterm, a promise he reiterated Friday night but one that most voters don't believe.

He's floated $500 Obamacare rebates for more than 1 million people who were purportedly overcharged for their benefits.

He also recently suggested a less-specific dividend of some kind for those living near data centers.

These ideas come on top of rebates he proposed in 2025 that were not ultimately paid, including tariff rebates and DOGE dividends."

The Zombie WC Fields will be playing him in the coming movie.

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun
Shine on you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
Shine on you crazy diamond
You were caught in the crossfire of childhood and stardom, blown on the steel breeze
Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
Shine on you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light
Shine on you crazy diamond
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision, rode on the steel breeze
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

(During the final mixing sessions of this song in June of 1975, Syd Barrett came into the studios. He wasn't recognized at first, but then the band let him stay for a while.

Richard Wright recalled, "He just"for some incredible reason"picked the very day that we were doing a song which was about him.")

Yeah, but see... he's a REAL liberal and we're just, 'Lumpers'.

Which apparently means anyone who sees through his nonsense.

Wow... voters driving public policy, eh?

And with a temporary .50 percent increase for good purposes.

Now wonder 1trumpslut is outraged!

US Marines deploy to Baltic Sea region for NATO's Baltic Sentry mission

Personnel from the United States Marine Corps are being redirected to the Baltic Sea region as part of NATO's enhanced vigilance activity Baltic Sentry.

The marines will number around 50 and will aid in supporting and protecting critical undersea infrastructure, the Pentagon has announced.

The personnel come from the 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion, 2nd Marine Division, II Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group, based at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.

They are to operate alongside Finland's Coastal Brigade, providing advanced expeditionary surveillance and tactical reconnaissance capabilities.

"Marine Corps Maj. Gen. Daniel Shipley, commander of U.S. Marine Corps Forces Europe and Africa, said the operational design was a premium example of European allies leading regional maritime security while the US provides specialized capabilities.

Our participation in Baltic Sentry demonstrates the dynamic agility of the Marine Corps to rapidly project specialized capabilities where they are most effective," he said.

"Working side by side with our Finnish allies strengthens our collective readiness, ensuring we can operate seamlessly as a cohesive, lethal team to deter hybrid threats in the Baltic littoral."

Still the fool... read the link in #8.

"The Atlantic said uncertainty over Washington's commitment to NATO has added to security concerns in the Baltics.

Trump has repeatedly discussed the possibility of taking the U.S. out of NATO. During his 2024 campaign, he said Russia could do "whatever the hell they want" to alliance members that failed to meet defense spending expectations.

This year, he threatened to take control of Greenland, a self-governing territory of NATO member Denmark, and later described NATO as a "paper tiger" after European allies declined to participate in his war against Iran.

Former NATO secretary-general Jens Stoltenberg was asked by The Atlantic earlier this year whether he was confident Trump would defend the Baltic states against a Russian attack.

"We base our security on that," Stoltenberg responded."

= Trump is the worst thing to happen to America in my lifetime.

I always thought that was going to be the assassinations of my early heroes John, Bobby, and Martin. And then the criminal Nixon and 'Nam, the war of choice.

And then Reagan and GW, Trickle Down and Dumbo.

But noooo..... we have to have a mockery of a human being actually running the country, and for a second time even; running it and us into the ground and to, I fear, ultimate ruin if he isn't stopped, and stopped soon.

"Every day with this president, something new hits the fan. Trump may need a daily dose of chaos, but the rest of us don't. Chaos and controversy may be his oxygen.

They may be what energize him. But after all these years, they're what wear a lot of us out.

And there's rarely time to digest one controversy before the next one comes barreling down the road and smacks us in the mouth."

"Trump Derangement Syndrome is supposed to describe people who can't stop thinking about Trump. Trump Fatigue describes people who would occasionally like the opportunity to stop thinking about him.

But Trump makes that almost impossible. He doesn't merely occupy the presidency. He occupies the national conversation.

Morning, noon and night, there he is " demanding attention, picking a fight, settling a score, bestowing a nickname, announcing something nobody saw coming.

And after nearly a decade of this, maybe the remarkable thing isn't that some Americans are outraged by Donald Trump. Maybe it's that a lot of us are just plain tired."

Honestly, I'm mostly tired of him breathing.

Republican goes after Dem child...

- but we tried to fight it

The next time one of these more recent Gens drives a Crook Pres out of office and stops a War by protesting in the streets and voting their concience, along with their parents and grandparents, despite being tear gassed and shot dead on campus and having their political and ethical leaders assassinated... it will be the first time.

They should really just stfu and stop embarrassing themselves.

1Nut's Gen, one supposes, should be held responsible for the coming AI Apocalypse, or whatever negative economic events occur on 'their watch'.

Of course, gen-bashing in general is ludicrous on it's face; one supposes that the moon landing, IC chips, and great music should also be condemned.

"Generational bashing completely ignores individual nuance and relies on sweeping generalizations that rarely hold up under scrutiny.

Every generation is shaped by the unique economic, technological, and cultural landscape they grow up in, but that doesn't make them a monolith.

Much of the tension we see online boils down to age-old tribalism " older generations historically critiquing the youth, and younger generations pushing back against the status quo.

When you get past the "Boomer vs. Millennial vs. Gen Z" memes, most people are just trying to navigate the world with the tools they have."

even AI isn't fooled by INut's nonsense

"From January 2022 to April 2025, its president was William P. Ruger, who resigned to serve as Deputy Director of National Intelligence for Mission Integration under president Donald Trump.[7] Ruger was succeeded by Samuel Gregg in 2025"

During the COVID-19 pandemic, AIER spread COVID-19 misinformation, promoting a fringe strategy of herd immunity strategy of "focused protection" to deal with the pandemic.[11][34][35]

AIER issued a statement in October 2020 called the Great Barrington Declaration, which argued for sole reliance on this strategy, while saying that society otherwise should take no steps to prevent infection."

Hilarious!

1Nut quoting from the, "American Institute for Economic Research
Think tank.

"The American Institute for Economic Research is a free-market, libertarian think tank located in Great Barrington, Massachusetts known for spreading climate and health misinformation."

"Led Zeppelin released Led Zeppelin III, which went on to top the Billboard 200 and the UK Albums Chart, on Oct. 5. Just three days before that album came out, another legendary rock band released what would become their first chart topper.

On Oct. 2, 1970, Pink Floyd released Atom Heart Mother, per LouderSound.com."

"But Atom Heart Mother is probably better known for the cow than the music.

Revisiting the album now is like entering a parallel universe inhabited by epic orchestral suites and songs created from the sounds of boiling kettles and frying bacon.

Floyd would make better albums, but it remains the apotheosis of their experimental era " or as guitarist David Gilmour later described it, "Our weird ----."

"Trump, however, has warned that if Democrats reclaim either chamber, they will attempt to impeach him for a third time. He dismissed unfavorable polling for him and other Republicans as being fake."

Lame Duck Donnie has such a nice ring to it.

This was a deal negotiated in 2024 by the Biden Admin... thanks for nothing, Boaz.
