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 well done. 👌
Taking out power plants is only ok if it is to facilitate a full ground invasion. If it’s used as punishment, it’s a clear war crime.
Trump has removed all doubt about the whys and is clearly ok with war crimes.
The question is will the generals understand they have some responsibility?
So there’s no regime change, we lift all sanctions against them going back decades, they retain missile and drone capabilities, they control the strait and can charge tolls, and keep their enriched uranium. So much for “unconditional surrender.”
But they would still have their power if Vance took over. There has to be another reason. Blackmail over Epstein files?
Glad to know the US Congress is out on a vacation and is resting from the strong effort they demonstrated.
So pro-life means jailing women who miscarry but shrugging when the deranged president says “a whole civilization will die tonight.” Do I have that right?
At pre-election rallies in #Hungary, the crowd began chanting: #Russians — go home! The historic slogan "Ruszkik haza" emerged during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and was directed against the #Soviet occupation 👍
A reminder that last week, Pam Bondi accidentally released a Jack Smith memo revealing Trump’s motive for stealing and illegally retaining classified documents.

Soulless sociopath says what?

I need this on a bumper sticker. ⛽️
Lieu: "Undocumented immigrants want nothing to do with the govt! To vote, you have to first register. How many undocumented immigrants are gonna go, 'Yes, I'm gonna give all my information to the govt that's maybe trying to deport me. No way!' This is a problem that doesn't exist."
So dark. Kushner raises billions for his fund while the family of a soldier killed in Truml’s war gets help on Go Fund Me: www.gofundme.com/f/major-alex...
So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right
There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.
He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.
McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.
Raskin tears Kristi Noem a new one: "Apparently when your blankie was left on one of the govt jets and not transported to the new one, your special govt employee, Corey Lewandowski, chivalrously stepped forward to fight the pilot -- mid air!"
Tillis: You decided to kill that dog because you had not invested the appropriate time in training it, and then you have the audacity to say it’s a leadership lesson. You killed a goat and said it was behaving badly. You’re a farmer — you don’t castrate a goat, they behave badly.
The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?
Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.
Newsom: He’s a weak president — and that weakness is now on display globally. The only card he had left was these tariffs.
His entire economic policy has been mass deportations — and that’s beginning to unravel. His broader economic policies have obviously been aided and embedded in these tariffs
“Her father is a refugee, and she's achieving glory with the American flag... [And] these people are trying to deport, detain, and deny the next Alysa Liu right now.”
@timmiller.bsky.social reacts to MAGA celebrating Liu’s Olympic win while backing policies that target refugees.
There's ketchup in his eye
“As the airplane took off, Epstein started touching me forcibly in between my legs, and I freaked out. I realized, this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped. They whisked me away to the island. I was stuck there. They never arranged any modeling opportunities, I was completely conned."
