I never used to bitch about paying taxes. Some people are dealt a bad hand. I was glad to fund schools, roads, public services. Now? I wake up every day enraged over having to pay taxes. It's all going to ethnic / mafia fraud from daycares to home healthcares.

@FornessD_GGSN If you can be organized and responsible enough to pay them all off every month then credit cards are a life hack. So much free money out there. Intro bonuses, cash back, discounted shopping. If you fear credit cards it's a you problem, not a credit card problem.

A bartender in Galveston, Texas was arrested for serving a drunk customer who killed someone. She makes $25 an hour. A federal judge makes $236,000 a year and has absolute legal immunity for every decision on the bench, including releasing violent offenders who kill again. 42 states have dram shop laws. The bartender’s causation chain has two links: pour drink, person crashes. Exposed window? Sometimes three hours. She can be charged with criminal negligence, sued in civil court, and lose her livelihood. All for failing to eyeball whether a guy at a crowded bar was too drunk for one more round. The judge has a pre-sentencing report, a criminal history score, a risk assessment algorithm, victim impact statements, and a prosecutor arguing the case in front of them. Every tool the system can produce. And when they get it wrong? Nothing. Absolute judicial immunity, codified since Bradley v. Fisher in 1871, means a judge cannot be sued for any act performed in judicial capacity. How absolute? In 1978, the Supreme Court ruled in Stump v. Sparkman that a judge who signed a petition to sterilize a 15-year-old girl without her knowledge or consent was fully immune. The court acknowledged the act was reprehensible. Didn’t matter. Judicial act, judicial immunity, case closed. That precedent still controls today. The recidivism data is where this gets obscene. The U.S. Sentencing Commission tracked violent offenders released in 2010 across eight years. 63.8% were rearrested. Median time to rearrest: 16 months. These numbers haven’t moved in two decades. The 2005 cohort and the 2010 cohort produced statistically identical outcomes. Judges aren’t making unpredictable calls. They’re making well-documented bets with other people’s lives, and the base rates have been published and available the entire time. The bartender gets three hours of ambiguous signals. The judge gets the full weight of the federal data apparatus. One of them can go to prison for getting it wrong. The other can’t even be named in a civil suit.

If bartenders can go to jail for over-serving alcohol to someone who then kills another person, judges should go to jail for releasing criminals who do the same.

We could also make India and china stop dumping all their plastic in the ocean. 95% of the ocean plastic comes from SE Asia and there’s zero penalty. Well… there is one penalty. We can’t use plastic straws.

If you are an American currently stuck in line at the airport, you should keep three things in mind: 1) Democrats shut down DHS to stop illegal aliens from being deported. 2) Shutting down DHS had zero effect on funding for immigration enforcment. 3) Democrats have said they will not re-open DHS unless ICE no longer has the power to detain criminal illegal aliens. The Democratic Party, quite simply, cares more about protecting foreigners than representing Americans.

Y'all... I've NEVER seen Hartsfield Jackson this bad. This is what security looks like this morning (Friday). We've talked to people that got to the airport at 3am that missed their 6am flight. @ATLNewsFirst @GAFollowers

Will someone explain to me how the left thinks guns are bad and want to ban them yet the same people can’t be bothered to prosecute the most obvious and tragic gun crimes??
LB@beyondreasdoubt

So the dude who sold a gun to the terrorist who killed a retired Lt Col in the Army had previously admitted to being a straw purchaser of guns that *checks notes* were used in a homicide and *checks notes again* Biden’s DOJ didn’t prosecute

On this day in 2009, Syracuse defeated UConn 127-117 in SIX OT in the Big East Tournament Quarterfinals 🤯 Syracuse did not hold the lead in any of the first five overtime periods.

Don't you just love when the fruits of 'legal immigration' result in a guy born in Bangladesh— who has lived in our country for less than three decades— now having the power to tell Americans that their 250-year-old right to keep and bear arms no longer exists?
Wall Street Apes@WallStreetApes

A man from Bangladesh introduced bill SB749 and got passed, a very extensive gun ban bill in Virginia It’s headed to the governor’s desk to be signed, she’s expected to sign it “Some guy from Bangladesh just banned American citizens from owning firearms in Virginia. Saddam Azlan Salim, a state senator in Virginia, has crafted SB749 banning all types of the possession, sale, etc, of firearms. It has passed the legislation. It's going to the governor's desk, a hardcore leftist, and will most likely sign it. Saddam wasn't born in our country. He came here like five minutes ago in the year 2000, and he does not celebrate our history and our constitution — We have to stop the foreign invasion of our country with people who do not celebrate American ideals.“ The bill It prohibits the import, manufacture, sale, purchase, or transfer of defined “assault firearms” (e.g., semi-automatic rifles, pistols, or shotguns with features like folding stocks, pistol grips, threaded barrels for suppressors, or fixed magazines over 10 rounds) and “large capacity ammunition feeding devices” (magazines holding more than 15 rounds).

The convenience of senators has become the enemy of liberty and good government. Time to turn that around. We must make filibustering senators speak—even through long nights, weekends, and long-scheduled recesses. We’ve become addicted to easy, predictable schedules. No more!
Katie Miller@KatieMiller

If President Trump can risk his freedom fighting for you, Senate Republicans can risk long nights and weekends.

Go fuck yourself, Senator. As a Black man, go fuck yourself. Especially when I KNOW you're attempting to triangulate Black people into giving Third World ILLEGALS voting rights, so YOUR accursed political entity can stay in power forever and ever. You're an evil man.
Chuck Schumer@SenSchumer

The SAVE Act is Jim Crow 2.0. It would disenfranchise tens of millions of people.  If Trump is saying he won’t sign any bills until the SAVE Act is passed, then so be it: there will be total gridlock in the Senate.  Senate Democrats will not help pass the SAVE Act under any circumstances.
