#18 Do you really think we would have been in better shape if Harris won?

#19 | Posted by fishpaw

Are you saying harris would have added trillions in debt to give tax cuts to the rich? Or crashed the value of the dollar making everyone 10% poorer?

Men who can't-------- are the most dangerous animals on the planet.

Look at ISIS. Look at the MAGA cult. Look at elon musk.

Same story over and over.

The fact that so many roided up morons love trump is everything an intelligent person needs to know about trump.

That said, I've been taking bets for years against the idea that Trump will ever spend a day in prison, after a conviction... for anything. For me to win my bet, Trump literally has to die without going to prison.

Any more takers?

Hell no. That's clearly what's going to happen. Biden is the one who ended the rule of law when his attorney general decided to not prosecute a fascist coup attempt.

This is the outcome Democrat liars wanted. They can make any claim they want and it can't be refuted with facts. Not that facts matter to Democrats, Biden's Auto-pen, Covid, Russiagate, Jan 6, BLM etc. and etc.

Democrats are voting to release the epstein files. Republicans are voting to keep them secret. How come?

Aren't there any better pornstars to name our cultural centers after?

I agree. This story isn't really a smoking gun for anything.

There was a person at my wedding, 40+ years ago, who is now in a Wyoming prison for life for killing a convenience store clerk.

Trump's quote about partying with epstein for 15 years and knowing he's into young girls is more incriminating, as is trump's hiring the lawyer who cut the sweetheart deal for epstein, as is trump refusing to release the files, as is trump marrying one of epstein's whores.

This is just more evidence of their close releationship on top of an already enormous pile of evidence that the maga cult ignores.

right now you can call a bunch of people a pedo. It's fun for you. enjoy it.

#37 | Posted by eberly

That's a word I save for who earns it. Just like fascist. Just like cult.

Epstein was a pedo. Trump was party pals with a pedo for decades. God knows what they did together.

He believes it's Clinton they are protecting. It doesn't occur to him that's likely only a small small small chance Clinton is the only real democrat on that list...if there is one.

#30 | Posted by eberly

Yet democrats want the list released and vote for that to happen because democrats aren't a cult. Repubs are blocking it to save their cult leader.

This is where I separate myself from most of the left.....what disgusts you about the democratic party.....I actually admire.

#31 | Posted by eberly

Of course you admire that the opposition party rolls over and refuses to fight. It makes it super easy for fascists to win.

They should have been yelling about epstein ever since trump had him killed.

I mean the adults in the democratic party. What should they do?

It starts with ...what exactly do they have? photos of a wedding?

I can't account for the criminal behavior of the 500 people who attended my wedding 27 years ago.

#24 | Posted by eberly

I just told you - a public pressure campaign reminding the world that trump was epstein's party pal for decades.

They had photos of that, they had trump's quotes about epstein, epstein's assasination, trump marrying one of epstein's whores, trump hiring the lawyer who let epstein off, trump hiring the attorney general who's dad worked with epstein, the connections are myriad. Dems used NONE of it because they're pathetic and they're still more concerned with protecting clinton than protecting america.

-And dems were unable to weaponize this info before the 2024 election because they are useless

what were they supposed to do?

#21 | Posted by eberly

They should have been yelling about epstein ever since trump had him killed.

They knew trump was a close friend of the world's most notorious pedophile and did nothing with it.
Just like they knew trump lead an insurrection, which bars him from the presidency, and did nothing with it.

So epstein attended Donny's wedding to marla maples, and then introduced donny to melania, one of epstein's whores, who donny cheated on his wife with and then divorced her for.

And dems were unable to weaponize this info before the 2024 election because they are useless. Someone handed them a bazooka to use against their greatest threat and they decided to be civil instead. Now democracy is dead.

Personally I want everything about the Epstein saga exposed. We should know everyone involved and every government organization and every country.

Then you should vote for the party that is voting to release it instead of the party that is voting to keep it secret to protect their perverted cult leader.

He practically admits that he now that he's voted for the legislation that he was told to support, he's leaving to collect the bribe money.

No its not "inflation", its a one-time increase.

Inflation is a persistent increase in the level of consumer prices.
However, some States/Cities' minimum wage increases are inflationary because they are made every year to track the CPI.

#184 | Posted by oneironaut

Just say it's not inflation if it happens because of trump. That's really your argument.

How we got here:

Trump fumbled a pandemic, so to save his reputation his whole cult had to act like the pandemic was a hoax, which turned into the vaccine is a hoax, which turned into all vaccines are hoaxes, which turned into dead americans.

More blood on the hands of maga morons.

This closeted gay ran all the way to russia because he needs laws against homosexuality to prevent him from kissing men.

And it doesn't stop when a democrat occupies the white house.

That's not to minimize what's happened here and I'm glad this is getting the attention it deserves.

#39 | Posted by eberly

No it's to defend republican fascism with false equivalencies to non fascists.

Insurance is not health care. It's the preventer of health care.

#11 | Posted by visitor_

Yeah which is why liberals want to get rid of it. Why do conservatives stand in the way?

Insurance companies hardest hit.

And what happens when a corporation takes a financial hit? Do they cut executive pay, or raise prices on consumers?

How many boosters are we up to now?

#5 | Posted by lfthndthrds

Why? What's wrong with trump's vaccine?

Now you have to buy american tomatoes - the ones that are picked before they are ripe so they have no flavor, and then stored in a gas chamber to delay rotting. And most americans are too stupid to notice, if they even consume fresh tomatoes.

Who else did you think was going to fund the tax cuts for billionaires? YOU ARE SUCKA.

It's just normal Republican logic. Yes, this is going to benefit the rich incredibly and there is no hiding that at all. However, as usual it will help the average person but only if they know how to take advantage of it and can take the risk. In other words, very few average people (by proportion) will see any benefit to this.

What really shocks me about this decision though is the tax implications. I haven't read the full details yet but I want to know the estimates on tax income for the government. 401k gains are not taxed, so it will be like the IRA situation in which you can add in a certain amount to shield from taxes. Which means, sometime in the next 3 or so years we are going to see both parties trying really hard to increase that cap significantly in order to take advantage of more shielding. Which, again, really helps the average person who knows how to take advantage of it but not nearly as much as the rich.

#11 | Posted by humtake

So what problem is this going to solve? The rich not having enough money? The deficit not being big enough?
