The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

This is so true. Texans you have to turn Texas back to blue. You have to want better.
Our thoroughly corrupt electoral system.
Too many Americans are STILL not educating themselves and spreading misinformation. You don't go to prison simply for not paying taxes. Unless the govt proves willful criminal intent (deliberate fraud or evasion), unpaid taxes are treated as a civil debt NOT a criminal offense. more in comments

CARTOON OF THE DAY (if you know who made this let us know)
We will get zero federal support because we're Washington (the real WA) and we don't kiss the ring. I hope folks in other states remember that and considering helping us out. We're one of the few states that contribute more to the fed than we get even in normal times. You're welcome.
MadGreek 🧿@madgreek2024.bsky.social · 3d ago"Why God? Why this one?" That was the question one home owner asked. His house was gone, while the house next to him stood. Some got lucky. Most homes perished in the flames despite the heroics of Firefighters. The Spokane Fires in Washington.
Rand Paul was vaccinated, as well, apparently. Check out the following exchange.
RFK Jr and wife had a soiree at their Hollywood mansion during COVID and required proof of COVID vaccination with RSVP. Watch what they do, not what they say. –Rachel Maddow
By tomorrow it will be out of the news cycle and forgotten. A pedophile, convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, money launderer is president of the United States….
now that there are provable facts about the actual cause, I hope folks can watch this objectively. over and over until it sinks in: every single one of these people knew there was no evidence of vandalism. this is how confidently and easily they lie with eye contact and a straight face.

Bold choice to remind everyone what a nightmare Covid was as we struggle to find SAFE SALAD GREENS, two bags of groceries are over $100, and RFK Jr decides to meet this moment by launching a cooking show.
Remember when David Hogg was running for DNC chair and the establishment stepped in and said we needed a responsible adult and then gave us Ken Martin, who throws his phone at his staffers? Also the DNC is $2 million in debt. But centrists still demand they should be in charge.
🔥 “I’m so sick and tired of you old people not giving a shit about what we’re telling you. We don’t have a future. We’re telling you what we need and you don’t give a damn.”
folks that prefer to blame and berate their (equally irrelevant) neighbors for elections instead of the oligarchs and parasites that have taken over our government really need to recognize that they're playing directly into an old and obvious strategy: keep em divided, keep em losing. be smarter.
madambluestocking@madambluestocking.bsky.social · 4d agowell, that's a woman but also, no. as long as technology exists that can compromise our voting machines, voters will never be in complete control of outcomes. and as long our media remains state-run, you really can't trust any numbers reported. remember that. alumni.umich.edu/michigan-alu...

For the enlightenment of the 💩🤡s going after Fauci:
I hope to god Dr. Fauci's surrounded by literal crowd of family and friends reminding him of all the good he did for the US and world. I'm so worried about his mental health. He's only human. Assassination is violent af - regardless of whether it's physical or of someone's character.
