Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

Trump did this 👇🏽

Angus Mclntyre (@angusm@mastodon.social): With Peter Thiel's company Palantir increasingly in the news, a lot of people are still uncertain what the company stands for and what its core values are. Basically, what you need to know is that in "The Lord of the Rings" only three people owned palantíri: - the Dark Lord Sauron, the epitome of everything evil, - his almost equally evil lackey Saruman, and - Denethor, a depressive autocrat who finally ended himself in a failed murder-suicide. That pretty much tells you what to expect.

There was a line in season 1 where someone says the emperor distracts people with 40 atrocities so they can't focus on any one, and that hit HARD.

Who gets the money in the Onion InfoWars lease agreement?

A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief. The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."

The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.
