@Hotshot_Movie Did they “toss” a rock through a window? Just wondering because that’s how the news in Pima County AZ described a crazed lunatic smashing out a window where a mom and daughter hid in fear for their lives.

One of our buddies in Nithya’s district had their sliding glass door busted in by 2 vagrants in broad daylight while he was at work and his wife was alone with the baby at home. It’s out of control.

Burglaries are surging in @nithyavraman’s district in Los Angeles. The residents keep paying the price while she shoots budget Mandami campaign videos around the town she helped destroy. Her constituents know what she stands for. Crime.

@MrAndyNgo @thehoffather Love the orange face paint. I hear it smells bad and causes eyes to water.

Seattle (April 19) — Far-left rioters were arrested after turning violent in an effort to shut down a fundraiser at the Town Hall Seattle for a pro-Israel group. Video by @thehoffather:

Hypothetically…….. I’m being taxed on money I never made. Let that sink in.
If I bought my property outright for $60,000 in 2009
Now the county says it’s worth $246,000.
Did I sell it? No.
Did I make a profit? No.
Did I get a check for $246,000? No.
But my taxes jumped like I did.
That’s the problem.
This isn’t income.
This isn’t cash.
This is a number someone decided on paper — and now I’m being billed for it.
If my stock portfolio doubles, I don’t pay taxes until I sell.
If my income doesn’t increase, I don’t magically owe more income tax.
So why does owning a home work differently?
Why am I being taxed on unrealized gains?
A house isn’t just an investment — it’s where people live. And this system means you can do everything right, pay off your home, and still get squeezed harder every year because of a number you never turned into money.
You don’t truly own something if you can be taxed out of it.
This isn’t about “services” or “inflation.”
It’s about being charged for value you never received.
And people are starting to notice.
This needs to be on everyone’s mind✔️

Below is a video from yesterday. Notice the nice, lush, green grass of a City park off to the right? Yeah, kids can’t play there—that’s Grant Park…ground zero for some ongoing gang turf wars. They OWN that park—not the City. Not the Iris Roley’s or the Damon Lynch’s—not the Black Religious Leaders in this City. No one takes over Grant Park to ensure that the families it was intended for can enjoy watching their kids play, or having a picnic with their families. It’s supposed to be a safe oasis in the middle of all of the concrete and noise…but it’s really just an oasis for Juvenile Violence.
Yesterday, two juveniles got jumped and had their cellphones stolen. One got a pretty good beat down. He stood up for himself and got stomped by multiple assailants. One of the suspects was arrested and charged yesterday. It is our sincere hope, that every, single one of those little raptors gets charged as well.
Wouldn’t it be really awesome if their parents and the Courts would actually hold these violent little bastards accountable? Until they do—these kids are just going to keep dropping bodies—thus, killing more kids.
This City is safe though right Mr. Mayor? We sure hope that all of the idiots who voted for your feckless ass have buyer’s remorse.

@Sadie_NC Fanatics always leave out parts that don’t fit their narrative. Willful omissions are common and accepted practice. Furthermore, Politicians are allowed to lie as protected 1st amendment right, as long as they are not under oath.
Unfortunately, that are rarely called out for it

What she left out.
Senator Warren correctly pointed out that Tesla paid zero federal corporate income tax last year despite billions in U.S. profit. But this wasn’t because of secret loopholes only Tesla uses. Tesla simply applied standard tax provisions that Congress wrote into the law and that many American businesses use:
• Accelerated depreciation on factories & equipment
• R&D tax credits
• Net operating loss carryforwards from earlier years
• Manufacturing and EV production incentives.
These breaks are available to any qualifying company. Tesla benefits more than most because it invests heavily in research, new factories, and new technology.
Important note: Tesla still pays billions in payroll, property, sales, and other taxes. The real debate is whether these incentives should be changed, not whether Tesla is receiving special treatment.
If she does not like the IRS tax laws, she can petition to have them changed, although I doubt she will, since I am sure she benefits from them as well.
Elizabeth Warren@SenWarren
If you paid even one penny in federal income taxes on your income last year, then you paid more than Tesla. Here's why.

We caught Rise and Resist organizers shoving pre made signs into bags at an Anti Trump demonstration in front of Trump Tower in New York City.
The organizers seemed to micro manage every facet of the demonstration. They ordered the demonstrators not to speak to us, they told the demonstrators what to chant, and they even collected the brand new signs once the rally ended. It was also interesting how at 1pm the protesters immediately left. They didn’t hang around or talk to press. They just left, almost like they were off the clock.
Do you think these protests happen organically or are they simply funded by billionaires?

🚨 HOLY CRAP! If Virginians don't storm the polls tomorrow, Democrats will succeed in creating the most blue Congressional gerrymandered map in AMERICA
Current map: 6 Democrats — 5 Republicans
New map: 10 DEMOCRATS — 1 REPUBLICAN
GLENN YOUNGKIN: "This is going to be close. They poured $70 MILLION into this! To try to fool, trick and deceive Virginians."
"A 'NO' vote is for the fairest map in America." @GlennYoungkin
STORM THE POLLS!
Final stretch!

For the folks suggesting that “Canal Street has always been like this” (many of whom are visibly out of staters) it might help you to learn a few things.
First, I’ve personally lived in this precise corridor for YEARS and I have single handedly not only watched this zone grow steadily out of control, but have been filming its devolution piecemeal for the better part of nine months after I hit a point of intolerance.
Second, the amount of residents and business owners in this 2 mile stretch who DM me on a daily basis confirming precisely this, folks who have lived here for DECADES, validate the same.
Ask them. They will tell you that historically, there had been a group of mostly friendly Asian women with pamphlets selling knock off goods. But given their politeness and minimal intrusion, the police usually left them alone because they weren’t really bothering anyone.
However, after and through our "migrant crisis'" (to call it a crisis is misleading; sanctuary city status is a choice. True crises are not), these folks have changed in tone and character, quality and quantity.
Now, block after block is covered in trash, graffiti, squalor, and blight, and even a 3 minute stroll through the melee (if you can even manage to make it, given their wares, carts, blankets and debris covering entire sidewalks for blocks), is met with cat called women and drug offers, to say nothing of the naked hostility and open violence if you dare to bring a camera to film public streets.
Third, if the stakeholders who actually live here (as opposed to the randoms online who reach back into a memory bank of visiting The Big Apple when they were a child!) was not enough for you, it may also help to know this exponential devolution was well documented by the Adams Administration during his entire tenure.
He essentially got down on hands and knees in presentations pleading for help as he quoted a figure of 10,000 migrants arriving per month, before turning around and notching 12 billion in tax payer aid to them over a course of 5 years.
Fourth, to the extent the peanut gallerists respond with “well how is that Zohran’s fault?!” - Zohran is the biggest proponent of sanctuary city EXPANSION in American history. If someone with common sense had been elected, they would have inherited a problem, absolutely. But that person could have begun to fix it, not balloon it.
Fifth, and finally, arguing that problem X has "existed for decades", (even if that were true, which it is, of course, not) does little by way of convincing me, or anyone with brain cells, that problem X should not be immediately resolved.
We do not have to live like this.

Where was @Chicago_Police? Where is the social media unit with a geofenced Google warrant for all live-streaming? Where is @ChicagosMayor & his midnight open gyms and electric checkers at @chipublib?

@TheMarinaTimes @SFMayorsOffice There’s a lot more money in passing out drug paraphernalia to addicts than there is in keeping addicts clean.
They should at least be required to clean up the used paraphernalia and pay to have it properly destroyed. It is hazardous biological material.
English

This is INSANE. Kids don’t even look 21 handing out drug paraphernalia while giggling and dancing to music. Zero counseling offered. And set up in taxpayer funded housing! How @SFMayorsOffice is this still allowed?

@InformedMama209 Stop referring to criminal drug addicts as homeless people.

@WallStreetApes This should not be a surprise.
Politicians have been given a signed blank check. Voters have become so polarized they suffer from a phenomena such as Groupthink and confirmation bias.
Power doesn’t corrupt, it attracts corruptible minds.

HOLY CR*P 🚨 Maine Governor candidate Bobby Charles exposes “There are more than 4,500 contracts that were non-compete, sole source, given to FRIENDS AND FAMILY OF DEMOCRATS”
The audit showed “$2.1 billion in questionable contracts”
Democrat money laundering is INSANE
“That is normalized public corruption”

@mattvanswol I’m glad people’s eyes are opening. It’s been like this for decades and when source of unlimited free money is found (ie: charities), you better believe a scammer is going to take advantage of the funds and the volunteers who do the work.

I hate to say it…
But I’m struggling to be generous after all the fraud we’ve seen.
There’s so few charities I trust now.
I do a deep dive on a homeless charity… oh look, my tax dollars are funding that and it’s run by a Trump-hating Leftist.
A Christian charity? Oh look, they’re helping illegal aliens.
An education nonprofit?
Oh look, it’s getting money from Left-wing political groups to send in Democrat activists to give lectures on LGBTQ oppression.
Even my TAX DOLLARS I know are being used to fund some BS non-profit that probably has me on a list somewhere as an extremist and is actively trying to cancel me.
It’s hard to be generous when I’m already being generously stolen from in taxes and when even the nonprofits aren’t actually solving the problems they reportedly exist to solve.

@mattvanswol A friend of mine donated to an orphanage for over a decade and one day he stopped by to check on the orphans.
What he found was a room full of people working the phones for donations and zero kids. Not even one kid for show. Zero.

@BrittRooted You must have a high compression or turbo charged engine. Premium high octane fuel, along with California taxes, are for rich people. I love a performance vehicle, but not for daily driving in Cali.
