Whoever runs this “press office” page really needs to take a breath and reassess your messaging strategy. You consistently come across like someone with ADHD and emotional problems. Perhaps a more measured and reasoned approach would serve you better. However, considering who you are messaging for “sound and fury signifying nothing” may be the best you can do.

REPORTER: You mentioned that, staying on as Fed governor, you intend to keep a low profile. Could you give us a little more detail on what that looks like? JEROME POWELL: *ducks down*

@DakMuse4 Mazi as bad or worse. There was no TJ there as I recall but you could have had a ten year starting guard in Torrance or really almost any other player there.

The fact we are going to have our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean drinking water is proof our current system is not for the greater good but for the greedy.

This speaks to me on a deep level. My work computer has to restart weekly for updates from the dell command center. No idea why. My tv updates its terms and policy every other week requiring my acceptance to clear the notification. No way to turn off. Make it stop.

the CATO Institute.. a libertarian think tank funded by the Koch brothers.. just published a study showing immigrants paid more in taxes than they received in benefits every single year from 1994 to 2023.. not a left-wing university.. not a Democratic PAC.. the Koch brothers' own research institute.. they reduced the deficit by $14.5 trillion over 30 years.. they earn less per hour but work at higher rates.. which means higher per capita income.. which means higher taxes paid.. the country spent 30 years being told immigrants were draining the system.. turns out they were funding it.. and the people who told you that knew the numbers the whole time
Leading Report@LeadingReport

Immigrants generate more income and taxes than the average person, per CATO Institute.

George Washington believed that vaccinating his troops against smallpox was the key to winning the Revolutionary War and our independence. A founding father from 250 years ago had a better understanding of science and military readiness than Pete Hegseth.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost

Breaking news: The military will no longer require U.S. troops to receive the annual flu vaccine, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said, rolling back what he described as “overreaching mandates that only weaken our war-fighting capabilities.” wapo.st/4dZY8UL

@WerderEdNFL The supermarket may be responding to local regulations, or they may have taken this step on their own. While it’s reasonable to ask questions, it should be pointed out that the supermarkets don’t control how all these goods are packaged.

It’s the hypocrisy of it that is most annoying to me. If you don’t want us to take home groceries in plastic bags to protect the environment, why is so much of what to sell us wrapped in plastic containers and bags?

@WerderEdNFL 1.7 billion fewer bags a year going into landfills in Colorado alone. Sorry you have to remember to bring your own.

🚨 If you thought the Fenway Park footage was shocking... Just wait until you see Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, from 1957. This is what New York looked like before it became a sanctuary city. Unrecognizable

The 14th amendment wasn’t intended for how it’s being abused in today’s society. In the 14th amendment where the words say “jurisdiction there of” referring to foreign nationals, consulates, diplomats etc.. meaning if one of them were to give birth here, they (child) doesn’t have jurisdiction to becoming a U.S citizen. As for the pregnant border hoppers producing anchor babies, they should be denied jurisdiction.

Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️
No justice could deny that Trump’s EO violates the 1952 Act of Congress conferring citizenship on exactly the same children born in the US whose citizenship the EO tries to erase. A 9-0 decision so holding would leave Congress free to try Trump’s move if it was as racist as he is
