@Jennnyyyyyy No correct answer. All numbers are divisible by both 1 and itself.

@SenWarren What a moronic statement. Corporations pay billions of dollars in taxes, and you know it. But because "income tax" is not one of the ways they pay, they're not paying their fair share?
English
If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than:
Tesla
Southwest
Disney
Live Nation
HP
United
PayPal
CVS Health
Palantir
Citigroup
PG&E
3M
That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax.
It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.

@dubyaOK @Rightanglenews Not really, no. Senators are elected in statewide votes, not nationwide. North Dakota chooses North Dakota's Senator, and California chooses California's Senator. We're talking about a Presidential candidate completely ignoring North Dakota in favor of California and New York.
English
@DGordon1971 @Rightanglenews Doesn't they way the Senate is chosen address this in a more effective way? The executive branch should be chosen one 'man,' one vote.

BREAKING - Outrage is erupting across Virginia after Abigail Spanberger signed HB965 into law, effectively rendering Virginians’ presidential votes null and void, with the measure handing the states electoral votes to the national popular vote winner regardless of states results.
English
@Rightanglenews Will Virginia and other blue states adopting this policy honor it if a Republican wins the popular vote?
English
@dubyaOK @Rightanglenews The College is in place because without it, no candidate would campaign in rural states. Big cities would decide every election.
English
This sounds like abandoning the electoral college and replacing it with direct voting. Sounds like a good move if all the states follow. The electoral college is a bit dodgy. No more census shenanigens to boost a state's electoral college (see California). A simpler direct vote would be much fairer. Is this what she is doing?

@coinbureau They can't sustain that. Oil sales are the lion's share of their economy, and China relies on their oil for their economy.

🚨UPDATE: IRAN SEEKS PROGRESS IN PEACE TALKS
Iran is weighing a short-term halt to shipments through the Strait of Hormuz to avoid testing the reported US naval blockade and protect upcoming peace talks, per Bloomberg.
English
@TRothell62855 @tedcruz Because California has zero interest in prosecuting, verifying, or recovering fraud money.
English
@nishachar_11 @coinbureau Not hard to understand, really. Iran is blocking access except for their own ships and foreign ships who capitulate to their toll booth demands. So we are blocking those ships, cutting off all revenue going to Iran.

⚡️121 EMPTY OIL TANKERS HEADING TO THE U.S.
After the U.S. moved to blockade the Strait of Hormuz, 121 empty tankers are now heading toward the United States to load crude.
President Trump urged countries affected by the disruption to turn to American energy supplies instead.
English
@Davefuljr @coinbureau @ZacharyAtkins77 We've been refilling the strategic reserves for a while now, and now we're ready to start selling.
English
@coinbureau @ZacharyAtkins77 Are we going to empty our reserves? I thought we were already low from Biden. 🤔
English
@spalato71 @coinbureau Correction. We DIDN'T have any oil to sell, past tense. But, by all means, encourage your government to hold out for Iranian oil.
English
@coinbureau HAHAHAHA YOU FUCKUPS. USA NEEDS MORE OIL THAN IT PRODUCES IT. YOU DONT HAVE OIL FOR SALE IDIOTS. YOU IMPORT IT TOO
AMERICANS BELIEVE EVERY BULLSHIT THAT COMES OUT OF TRUMPS MOUTH 🤣
FOLKS, A RUDE AWAKENING. YOU LOST THE WAR WITH IRAN 🤣
English
@LarkDavis Solid play. As long as Iran is restricting access, their ships aren't going through either.

The reverse UNO card has been activated.

JUST IN: US military officially begins the "blockade" of Strait of Hormuz

@oneflyinghorse @tedcruz "Love your enemy" does NOT mean shielding them from arrest and consequences as they continuously commit crimes, up to and including murder.
English
Why does the media lie?
Homeland Security@DHSgov
SHAMEFUL headline from the @nytimes. This was more than a “graphic attack” — it was a cold-blooded MURDER committed by criminal illegal alien Rolbert Joachin who BRUTALLY beat an innocent woman to death with a hammer in Florida. He was released into our nation and granted temporary protected status by the Biden administration. Once again the mainstream media is running cover for a criminal illegal monster.
English
@coinbureau In other words, banks are still refusing to budge, and crypto companies are edging closer to capitulation.

🚨WHITE HOUSE SIGNALS PROGRESS ON CRYPTO CLARITY COMPROMISE
Reporter: Do you think we are close to like a compromise that moves us forward on clarity?
Patrick Witt: I do believe we are… very confident that they will [stand by that compromise].
Latest draft bans passive stablecoin yield but allows activity-based rewards.
English
@coinbureau Huh. If only someone had asked them to help keep the Strait open . . .

🚨EU AIRPORTS WARN OF JET FUEL SHORTAGE RISK
European airports could face “systemic” jet fuel shortages if the Strait of Hormuz is not reliably reopened within three weeks, ACI Europe warned in a letter to the EU transport commissioner, per FT.
English
@IesuMessias @LarkDavis Aaaand he blocked me. The response of one who knows they have no argument. Considering the amount of Scripture he quotes on his page, it would have been interesting to discuss how his understanding of Biblical compassion compares to mine.
English
A complete 180 from "a whole civilization will cease to exist tonight" to "big money will be made, Iran can start reconstruction, Golden Age incoming!" 😂
Look, I'll take it. Hopefully this is just the beginning of things slowly going back to normal, not just for the Gulf but for everyone.
The next 2 weeks will tell us everything. Either we're back to max longing and pretending we were never scared... or we're still here refreshing the charts while our bags collect dust.
English
@IesuMessias @LarkDavis You don't feel sorry for a people being slaughtered by the tens of thousands by their own government?
English
@DGordon1971 @LarkDavis The Persian Iranians don’t feel sorry for the people of Iran. Why would you?
English
@LarkDavis On another note, we should probably take any agreement by the Iranian regime with a massive block of salt.
English
@LarkDavis I feel bad for the people of Iran. They wanted us there, and now they are probably feeling like they've been abandoned with the talk of rebuilding. But the problem is that Trump said from the outset that he was not interested in US involvement in a ground campaign.
English
@LarkDavis He told them that we would set the stage for them to take their country back, and unfortunately they have not stepped up.
