Tax Plan with No Tax Cut 🤦🏻‍♂️

Let us never forget the courage and sacrifice of those who laid down their life for this country, its people, and our future.

Generation after generation, men and women put on the uniform knowing the risk — and went anyway knowing they might not come home. Knowing their families would carry that for the rest of their lives. To the families still carrying that weight — I see you. The pain doesn’t go away, but neither does the pride. Freedom has never been guaranteed. It has to be earned, defended, and sometimes paid for in the hardest way imaginable. Today on Memorial Day, we stop, we slow down, and we remember those who did. We honor them. We thank them. And we work hard to live up to what they died for. Keep the democracy they believed in worth believing in. That is the ultimate tribute for their sacrifice.

Today, we honor America’s bravest souls who gave their lives in the line of duty to protect us and our way of life. Words will never express the gratitude we feel, and we carry the memory and the mission of the brave men and women who died while serving our country.

The Gold Star Memorial Day parade in downtown Columbia is still 15 minutes away and parking is at a premium. Organizers expect about 5,000 people. Cub Scouts are handing out American flags. A reminder there is a separate Gold Star wreath-laying after the parade. @939TheEagle

Memorial Day asks something simple of us: remember. Remember the service members who lost their lives, the families who carry that loss every day, and the responsibility we all share to never treat that sacrifice lightly. This shouldn’t be about left versus right or political divisions. Honoring those who gave their lives for this country should be something that brings us together.

We owe all that we have to the selfless Americans, in our own generation and back through time to the Founding, who gave their lives defending our nation. Memorial Day calls us to remember our war dead; to honor through action the lives they lived, the families who carry their memory, and the sacrifices that make possible our way of life.

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying. I’ll always be grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, whose sacrifice reminds us of what it means to live for something greater than ourselves.

Megyn Kelly: “Trump has cheated on every wife he’s had. He met Marla Maples while he was married to the mother of his children Ivana. Ivana accused him of raping her. She alleged he was so angry over the hair transplant he got that she made him get, it was so painful that he raped her. He winds up with Melania and if you think Trump’s been faithful to Melania, you’ve got bigger issues than I can solve”

Even REPUBLICAN Senators are admitting Trump surrendered to Iran:

If the reports are true, Trump agreeing to allow Iran to keep its enriched uranium would be a total American surrender. What an abject humiliation for the United States in front of the entire world. Trump’s weakness and failure on full display.

Even some Fox hosts seem reluctant to spin a potential Iran deal as a win Tomi Lahren: If all we get is the strait opened, we’d be back to where we started before we started the conflict. You have to get the enriched uranium—otherwise, I don’t know if you can say this is a win.

Assuming we’re heading to the deal that’s being reported, I will say that Trump’s ill-conceived and foolishly executed war seems to be ending in ignominious and unmitigated defeat.

According to Al Jazeera, the Iran deals includes unfreezing billions in Iranian funds, lifting U.S. blockade, pulling U.S. forces away, reopening strait of Hormuz though with tolls to Iran, and allowing Iran to keep its enriched uranium. This would be a total U.S. surrender.

Should politicians be able to RAISE SALES TAXES without a vote of the people? Should your vote matter LESS than the votes of those same politicians?

I'm worried that Trump will launch a war on Cuba, to distract attention from his war on Iran, which distracted attention from his war on Venezuela, which distracted attention from the Epstein files

WHAT IS HE WRITING??? 👀

Always appreciate the chance to speak with @ozarks_first about how we can tackle the challenges facing Springfield families, from high prices, to underfunded classrooms, to a tax proposal punishing working families and retirees. Thanks for having me on!

It's official, in a last ditch attempt to save GOP House Speaker Patterson's political career, the Governor has placed Patterson's Everything Tax on the August ballot so Patterson has a bit of time to try and run away from it by November.

Hearing that House Speaker Patterson's ballot proposal to replace the income tax with higher sales taxes on everything is polling at <20% support and so the Governor will put it on the August ballot in a desperate effort to protect Patterson's chances in November .

WTF?
