@STEFisDOPE but be sure to bring your documents if you want to shovel!

Taxed y’all ass extra, then said come shovel this snow while you’re at it 😂😂😂😂

🚨 NEW: Zohran Mamdani Calls on New Yorkers to Shovel Snow During Tomorrow’s Blizzard “You too can become an emergency snow shoveler. Just show up at your local sanitation garage between 8am and 1pm tomorrow with your paperwork.”

@stoolpresidente I like you @stoolpresidente, but you’re in over your head here. Best to shut off the computer and take a break.

I’ll tell you this Stevie. 1. I would out trade you if I had your capital to start and #2 if I had your money this guy would 100% still be in a Mets uniform.

@stoolpresidente I love that idea , what a genius

@MrPitbull07 Just trolling for interactions. People like you are exhausting

Ran up a $1500 dinner tab and when the receipt came back they had those cute little “suggested tips” printed like I’m supposed to casually drop another $300 just because someone carried plates from kitchen to table. I left $25 which honestly felt generous considering I already paid restaurant-level prices for the food itself.
Server immediately got weird about it, attitude switched, barely a thank you, just that tight smile people do when they think you violated some unspoken rule. I told her straight up tipping isn’t a percentage subscription service and I’m not funding someone’s rent just because the bill happened to be high.
Manager wandered over trying to smooth it out, hinting about “industry standards” like that magically obligates me. That only made me dig in harder because nowhere else do you get charged more for the exact same task just because the total went up.
So I signed it exactly how it was, stood up, and walked out while they all stared like I committed financial treason, and if they think I’m coming back there to play along with that system again they’re seriously confused.

@CoryBooker Interesting how your video doesn’t show why he slammed here. I’ve seen the whole video and she deserved what happened. @CoryBooker you are purposely misleading people.

@MichaelSLinden The root cause of the budget gap is taxes? You should delete your account. You are intellectually challenged
English

There is a simple "cheat code" to tell if someone is genuinely concerned about the deficit.
Ask them about taxes. If they support more tax cuts (the root cause of our budget gap), or they oppose tax increases, then they do not actually care about the deficit.
Simple as that.

There's no reason to take any Republican seriously on the deficit.

@Joelsherman1 This mfer has been sitting at home for 4 1/2 months and now he’s needs surgery? Ridiculous

@jsx181959 @WallStreetApes Look at you commenting on America while your country is absolutely imploding from the progressive nonsense you support

@WallStreetApes This guy is drinking the koolaid - and spewing usual Trump talking points

American LOSES IT at the Philadelphia City Council
“I sit here in disgust as I watch Kendra Books, Jamie Gauthier, hold up pictures of a domestic terrorist, Renee Good
- I've never seen her put up a picture of Dacara Thompson, a 19-year-old who was raped and murdered by an illegal alien and thrown over a bridge
- I never seen her put up a picture of Laken Riley, who was raped and murdered
- I never seen her put up a picture of Larisha Thompson, a mother
I named two black women, by the way. And y'all sit here and pander to white liberal women like Renee Good.”
“We are here to give something different to Philadelphia, something that y'all are not used to because you've been voting Democrat for the mayor's office for the past 70 years. It's not MAGA who's doing all of the carjacking and the shootings. When we talk about ICE, 78 million people, 7 swing states, including Pennsylvania, we voted for this. We voted for this. We gave a mandate. — we wanted a fund to deport 20 million illegal aliens that was imported in here by the Biden and Harris administration with the help of the cartels
So once y'all stand up for Americans for once, because America comes first.”

@Boblaze426 @NFL_DovKleiman White liberal woman …… your post is so predictably boring

@BaylesLawGroup @SteveRattner @Morning_Joe Funny - you’re a half ass “business attorney.” I’m an Ivy League educated Wall St trader (25 yrs) that voted for Trump. But I can’t read a chart? You lack self awareness.
English

@SteveRattner @Morning_Joe MAGA reading a financial chart is like a cat reading Sanskrit
English

Before Trump took office, retail prices were trending downwards. His tariffs reversed that pattern.

@Marc_Kenyon @glenn_tunes Come on Marc - you don’t hang out with any conservatives
English

@glenn_tunes School districts should require civics as a mandatory subject. I've noticed a lot of MAGAs think the trump should have the power of a king. They don't understand how our governrement works and most importantly WHY it was set up the way it was by the founders.
English

@glenn_tunes LMAO - the lack of self-awareness among liberals is truly unbelievable.
English

@NoLimitGains Do you think it’s possible the sell-off is the Trump Administration manipulating metals, and using those trillions of today’s sell-off to prop-up the stock market?
English

🚨 THIS IS NOT NORMAL
In the last 24 hours:
Gold: -12.5%
Silver: -34%
Trillions of dollars in losses.
We’re getting close to a sigma-8 event.
Something that has NEVER happened in the history of finance.
Do you understand how INSANE that is???
That’s more than the GDP of 99% of countries in the world, gone in one day.
We have officially entered the forced-liquidation phase.
This is a liquidity black hole.
Every major fund is getting margin-called.
They’re selling the only things they have left that still hold value to cover their losses.
Do not hand them your wealth.
I’ve been in finance for more than 23 years.
When I EXIT the markets completely, I’ll say it here publicly like I always do.
Many people will wish they followed me sooner.

@Whale_Guru I was a commodity guy for 30 yrs. I’m not shocked at all.

@surlygopher @PathOfMen_ I actually have learned quite a bit from this string. Didn’t realize there’s a protection for inheritance on sale of securities. Makes this strategy attractive.

@Econ4Voters @UltraaVincent @Fat_Electrician Really, then why are taxes not the same for every house?
English

Property taxes don’t increase because the value of your house increases, taxes on your house increase because the government spends more money. (Whether increased spending is money well spent or even necessary is a different topic.) Basing property taxes on value, which generally increases over time, rather than something fixed such as square footage is a diversionary tactic to draw our attention away from increased government spending. It’s easy to fall into the trap of believing property taxes went up because the value of my house increased when that’s not really the case. I’d prefer to see property taxes based on something fixed such as square footage. The psychologically of that would shift our attention away from the changing value of our homes towards the change in government spending, where it should be.
English

We don’t tax unrealized gains. If your stock goes up but you don’t sell, that’s not taxable income. I get it. I agree with it.
So why doesn’t that same logic apply to property taxes, especially homes?
Why is it that if my house value goes up for whatever random fucking reason, I suddenly owe the government more money?
English

@ObsoleteDogma Imagine being so self absorbed you think 80m people on the right “don’t read.” You’re an absolute clown

Bari is about to to do to CBS News what Bezos did to the Washington Post: alienating your slightly left-of-center audience in search of a right-wing audience that either does not exist (for written media) or won’t watch you (for video media) because it prefers insane slopaganda
