" At one time Musk's companies were being sued by 7 Federal agencies, and 2 state agencies. But it didn't occur until Musk picked a side."

The lawsuits, or the law breaking?

" What are you ------- going to do when the cease fire starts in Ukraine?!?!?"

What, did Vladdy promise Trumpy a ceasefire AGAIN?!?

What a riot.

Trump is Charlie Brown trying to kick Vladdy's football.

"Well now you know how women feel with a man in the locker room."

What a riot.

Trans folks change in the restroom. The last thing they're looking for is hassle. Chicks with dlcks aren't going to shower with women; that's done at home.

What you're referring to is a predator, who never needed the ruse, to be a predator.

" It would seem extremely easy.....for me.....and most everyone else."

Define most.

And tell me what you're doing to the exceptions. At 20 million possibly losing coverage, even 5 percent gets you to a million people.

" 20 hours they have....since they have no job"

Some are caregivers ... but that's doesn't count, does it?

And I'm betting national holidays aren't free bingo spaces, just a week more difficult to maneuver to get 20 hours.

BTW, what happens when all the charity slots get filled? I'm guessing charities are expected to change their operating plans and policies to prepare for inundation.

Frankly, not all charities are scaled to address the coming spike in volunteer inquiries.

" You're not even offering bus fare."

And-let me guess-time spent to fulfill required reporting won't count towards the 20 hours ... .

" it will seem to the average employed Joe that the barrier isn't much of a barrier."

And what if you had to get new, signed statements from every one of your clients on a quarterly basis? Would that seem like an easy burden, or no burden at all?

In addition ... has anyone considered the additional costs in having to look for work or do charity? 20 hours a week means a MINIMUM of three days, unless you're doing overtime. Who's paying for the extra costs? You're not even offering bus fare.

" I'm sure those guys are rushing out to file tax returns "

Two different issues.

But let's say the beggar files a tax return. Exempt now?

" you mean like the same as everyone who has a job"

You are not looking at the full picture. Charities won't have enough legitimate work to delegate, though they'll be pressured to sign for folks who tried to volunteer. And for those folks, they're not dealing with one job or one employer; they might be dealing with a dozen or more in a reporting period.

But let's cut to the chase, shall we? The whole point is to put an additional barrier between the eligible person, and the benefit, KNOWING this will disenfranchise some. That's not a bug, that's the goal.

And just like the vote suppressionists, morons pretend an additional barrier to a legitimate benefit won't be an additional barrier to a legitimate benefit.

" Does he not know that looking for work satisfies the work requirement?"

No, it doesn't on its own ... unless the government is willing to take everyone at their word and require no proof. Paperwork will no doubt be required to be signed and remitted.

Same with charitable activities.

Of course this, and overtime, become targets for easy fraud, especially with the IRS budget being slashed while they're still expected to update their entire software system.

"Why isn't this guy looking or work instead of sitting on the sidewalk begging?"

Since the money culled from begging is taxable income, how is that not work by IRS definition?

" baseless prosecutions have consequences"

Another slurper who can't point to a single instance of lawfare.

Since you made the accusation plural, we'll need TWO links for proof.

LHT,

Have you found a single example of lawfare against Trump? Time to either link, or admit you have nothing.

34 felonies. The lawfare should be easy to spot.

"This is hilarious. Trump cant tie his shoes"

Blind squirrel is correct!

" Biden wasn't charged because the end goal was to bury Trump"

Still doesn't explain why Pence wasn't charged.

And you STILL can't admit the profound differences between co-operation and over a year's defiance.

" 60% of Americans disapprove of Dummkopf Trumpf's job performance, while only 38% approve"

See?!? Ninety percent!
~Math Morons

" Feel free to point out (with the statute) why Biden was never charged with classified documents in his garage and university office."

For the same reason Pence didn't get charged.

See, it turns out that co-operating with the Feds immediately, is different than lying about possession, lying about what was returned, having lawyers lie about what was still possessed, and enlisting others to obstruct justice by moving evidence.

I've answered; now it's your turn. Of course, if you had anything you would've posted it already.

In the meantime, you've exposed yourself as a moron who can't tell the difference between co-operation and untruthful defiance.

"How does this fantasy even make sense?"

Easy.

Putin has Kompromat against Trump. Could be anything, but it's definitely something .

No other explanation for Helsinki on.

" People in their right minds knew what that was."

Feel free to point to any of those 34 indictments which you or I could do without fear of legal repercussions.

Failing that, please have the class to admit you can't.

" 90% of the country thinks this line of BS is BS."

Republican Math is a dangerous thing, kids! Be aware!!!

You'll recognize it every time, by the following equation:

"One plus one equals ... whatever my talking points require."

Let me be clear: anyone who gets Social Security alone, even the maximum of $5108 per month, pays no income taxes. That means a couple could bring in $122,000 a year in Social Security, and owe zero federal taxes.

Add in the standard deduction, and the use of Qualified Dividends or Long-Term Capital Gains, and there's another $30K+ of tax-free income in retirement.

Tax-planning as a kid is easy; as a retiree or near-retiree, it's a jungle. But the more you've contributed to all kinds of retirement plans, the more quills in the quiver.

" What "news" outlets are lying to you?"

Or, more to the point, why do you respect news outlets that don't respect you enough to tell you the actual truth???

" poor people dependent on social security will get a large tax cut"

No they won't. Not a penny.

Those fully dependent on Social Security pay NO federal taxes as it is. The idea that 80% who get SS won't be taxed on it pales when you learn 64% already don't pay income tax on their SS.

What "news" outlets are lying to you?

" while the richest 10% of Americans will see their income increase by $13,600 from tax cuts."

Meanwhile, the average billionaire will save over a million dollars a week.

" That's a very unique move but the conversion privilege is what's being abused...."

Thiel was doing this before backdoor Roths were imagined.
