I’m calling the 1990s. I want these Democrats back.
Today In History@historigins
In 1998, the United States achieved its first federal budget surplus in 29 years, effectively ending a streak of deficits that had lasted since 1969. This milestone was achieved under President Bill Clinton, following the passage of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, which resulted in a fiscal surplus of approximately $69 billion for that year.

@MetamateDaz That is not society imposing those demands. Remove society completely. It's you, alone in the jungle. Are those things not still required?
English
You’re born onto a planet you never asked to exist on…
and society immediately hits you with: “Okay, now go earn the right to eat, sleep, rest, and have shelter.”
Like… zoom out for a second.
We’re floating on a rock in infinite space and we created a game where you have to spend most of your life working just to not starve or freeze to death.
The whole concept is actually insane when you think about it.

@juventekkers @mcsquared34 Yes so we CAN say military and Pentagon lose money.
English
@CoyJason58232 @mcsquared34 By this logic the military and pentagon also fail their audits

@adamcarolla Just need to understand value. "Hard" work is the physical work to him. But its valued lower. Anyone can push a broom, but not everyone can conceptualize and implement a logistic company. So it is HARDER to do.

I didn’t know this guy was a dope. I make 300 times what I made on a construction site and I don’t work nearly as hard

@SaltyCracker9 Well, it works if the guy doesn't move. She demonstrated quite effectively that if I do nothing, she could kill me.
English
None of that works in the real world ladies. Get a gun.

Women training before walking through a Democrat city because they keep allowing lifelong criminals onto the streets.

Trump sued his own IRS.
Settled with his own government.
Secured a $1.8 billion slush fund to siphon toward his allies.
Blocked the IRS audits against himself and his family.
This is corruption in plain sight.

@saylordocs Heres the real kicker. You contribute for 30-50 years to get 14 years of benefit. Now you contribution with zero growth rate is anywhere from 70-100% of your benefit value.
English
@saylordocs That doesnt include employer contributions of equal value, or the medicare tax. And now that contributions is over $30k per year for $4900 a north. The zero growth rate alone give you over half of the benefit

The max one can pay into social security per year is $10,453.20.
If you did that every year from age 18 until retirement, the max you’ll get from SS is $4,873 /month.
If you put it into an S&P index fund instead, you would receive $32,583 per month.
Social Security is a scam.

@CollinsportME Beer summit was 1 year into his presidency. Nothing sowed more division than that and those continued actions of weighing in uninformed because he is on a racial equity bender.
English
Obama didn’t cause any division in this country. It was caused by all the bigots who couldn‘t handle a Black President. If you think it was Obama who caused the division, it’s because you’re one of those bigots.

@cwebbonline Furthermore, it ignores the policdecisions that lead to their citizens not being able to afford housing. They added to it, and invited the nation's homeless to make LA their "home".
English
@cwebbonline Aside from the sensitive label of unfocused versus homeless, this post reveals further ignorance on policy induced behavior.
They made it easy to be homeless and like Motel 6, California left the light on and invited them all with their giveaways.
English
So let’s get something straight about the unhoused:
California is expected to carry a massive share of America’s homelessness crisis, then gets mocked for struggling under the weight of a problem that clearly extends far beyond Los Angeles.
📌 According to this report, only 36% of L.A.’s street homeless population is originally from the City of Los Angeles itself. Another 38% came from other states.
Meanwhile, politicians across the country slash housing, healthcare, and mental health funding, then point at California and scream “failed blue city.”
This is not just an LA problem. It’s a national crisis.

Hot take but we literally tried to warn you that this is what happens when abortion access isn’t accessible.

This newborn baby was found in a dumpster in Houston, Texas. "The child appeared to be fresh out of the womb, with his hair wet, his skin pruned and his umbilical cord still attached." Thankfully, he survived

@edels0n @raymadoff Um.... quick question. Why do you think they call it an INCOME tax? What i heard her say is lets talk about something unrelated, conflate them and confuse it for a lie.
English
“The top 1% pay 40% of the taxes” — the statement so misleading, it might as well be false.
@raymadoff explains.
Jeff Bezos@JeffBezos
Yes, the United States has the most progressive tax system in the world. The top 1% pay 40% of taxes, the bottom 50% pay 3% of taxes. We can make it even more progressive by zeroing out taxes on the bottom half. It’s a small amount of the total tax revenue but very meaningful to people in this group.

@adammocklerr If anyone can do it, Gavin can. Just look at how he solved homelessness.

It’s amazing what’s possible when your focus is helping people
Democrats Deliver@DemzDeliver
🚨 HUGE: Gavin Newsom introduces plan to adopt universal preschool and free school meals in California.
English
@CAgovernor Not to mention you leading the nation in our quest for immortality. 85-97% survive hospice compared to the national 17-18%. How are you guys not advertising this miracle cure for death?

JD keeps lying about California's aggressive fight against fraud.
We've walked the walk with nation-leading fraud prevention and have protected billions.
Meanwhile, JD's boss is pardoning convicted fraudsters and literally stuffing his pockets with YOUR tax dollars.
The Post Millennial@TPostMillennial
VANCE: "I would love it if Gavin Newsom had a come to Jesus moment and said, 'You know what, I'm going to take this fraud issue seriously,' because we would work with him."

@LqLana Who, exactly, saddled us with the current health insurance system? Democrats. Who jammed it through congress knowing about the 10 year fuse? Democrats. Thats what #DemsUnited got you, the things you complain about.
English
My son just aged out of my health insurance.
Two choices for him.
Pay over $1,400 a month for COBRA
or
Pay over $400 a month on the Health Marketplace, which is actually the least expensive plan there.
Apparently, I'm going to be paying for his cell phone forever to help him out.
The system is not set up to help young adults succeed.
Housing unaffordable. School is unaffordable and Healthcare unaffordable and you have the guy in the White House more concerned about gold for his ballroom and blue paint for the reflecting pool.

@grahamformaine I think Trump should follow the Biden rule and just appoint them without a vacancy.
English
If Donald Trump tries to confirm a Supreme Court justice in his final two years, Senate Democrats must follow The McConnell Rule™
