My final Browns mock draft. Thoughts?

@SpanbergerForVA He’s not entitled but the folks that voted for him are entitled to representation…

Today’s redistricting referendum is about one thing: President Trump’s power grab. Last summer, he said he’s “entitled” to more seats in Congress, and states across the country got to work to give him what he demanded. You can push back, Virginia. Vote YES.

@RobertMSterling @Heminator Thanks for posting this. There was no way I would read that story so would have missed the details, but those salaries are STAGGERING. Compare those to the military pay charts and you have middle management folks at USAID making General/Admiral pay…

I feel terrible for anyone who loses their job. I’m not trying to kick anyone while they’re down. But these USAID and NGO workers are the least sympathetic unemployed people I’ve ever seen. EVERY person in this story was making well into six figures: USAID employee: $175,000 USAID contractor: $127,000 USAID-funded NGO employee: $272,000(!) USAID advisor at the DOD: $195,000 USAID contractor: $200,000 There were 16,000 employees at USAID, and the New York Times was only able to interview one making less than $175k. Worldwide, there were an estimated 280,000 contractors. ALL of these people were getting paid from our tax dollars. Many were making 2-4x the wage of the average American taxpayer ($65-70k per year). Yes, USAID did some good work, especially during the Cold War. And, yes, many of the agency’s employees were hard-working Americans, with good intentions and love for their country. Again, we should take no joy in seeing thousands of people lose their livelihoods—this is not a case of justifiable schadenfreude. But it’s not sustainable for an agency with so little accountability to manage tens of billions of dollars per year, enriching tens of thousands of NGO-industrial-complex managers living in the DC/Maryland/Virginia metroplex in the process. Even the NYT acknowledges that “there was bloat and waste in the agency and a need for reform. Much of the $35 billion [USAID] managed in 2024 went to Washington-based contractors, not directly to people in need overseas. The success of many projects was hard to measure.” Every last dollar that went to these highly paid employees was funded by an American taxpayer, the vast majority of whom make far less money than the people laid off from USAID. We have the right to demand accountability, and we have the right to expect that these funds will be spent in our interest, not theirs. USAID and its thousands of employees, contractors, and NGO beneficiaries ignored that principle, and they eventually paid the price with their careers. I wish them all nothing but the best, but I won’t mourn that they will no longer be making $200k per year on the backs of American workers.

@swd2 Congrats. This was a masters level of emotional baiting today. Also, turning everyone who disagreed with you into a political sycophant, wow. Kids, pay attention. This is engagement farming at its finest.

I appreciate all the engagement today. You MAGA clowns are so predictable. You have like 3 regurgitated insults (soy, cuck, retard) and your loyalty to your orange messiah is scary af. One day we'll all say we opposed him. Some of us just have the courage to say it now.

Voter to Pete Buttigieg: “Every day I wake up scared because… I’m waiting for the day that they start banging on doors and taking our trans and our gay friends… to concentration camps.” “I know that there’s nothing you can do about that, but if you could, what would it be?”

@RobertMSterling I see your 0800 and raise you 0615…

@GavinNewsom @NRA Stop. Politicizing a tragedy like this should be beneath even you. . .

Eight children murdered — ages 1 to 14. This is a moral failure. It’s preventable. How many more kids have to be killed before the @NRA stops paying off politicians?

@Super70sSports This is my America!

Sometimes this world wears you out and leaves you cynical … and then you see a moment like this and realize there will always be more good than bad.

@WallStreetApes In summary, SMART business people take advantage of the NUMBSKULLS who run our country. And have for a long time. Color me SHOCKED!

This is how Amazon Founder Jeff Bezos avoids paying a personal income tax - For the last 20 years he’s had the same salary, $82,000 - He does this because a higher salary that would support his lifestyle would be subject to payroll and income tax, he doesn’t want to pay that - Instead all his money is in his stocks, those are never subject to any taxes as long as they aren’t sold - He takes out a loan and borrows against his stocks - The only money he’ll ever had to pay is the loan and interest on the loan This is common practice for billionaires so they avoid the majority or all of a personal income tax

@ossoff Would you mind sharing your military or business resume, sir? Professional politician/lobbyist is SEVERAL rungs behind used car salesman on the “respectable profession” list…

Draft-dodging Donald loves sending other people's children to war.

@SonsofSatVT Glad he’s ok. Now hurry up & get the GoPro footage of this posted!!!🤣

The parachuter is now on his way down. Great work from all the first responders to give this scary moment a good ending.

Me, when my Italian wife wears a sundress:

@BernieSanders And what have you done to change this?

If you paid $1 in federal income taxes this year, you paid more than: Walt Disney Citigroup CVS Kohl's Ticketmaster Tesla United Airlines GoDaddy Paypal Palantir Roku HP 3M PG&E Halliburton That’s absurd. We need real and progressive tax reform.

@1Nicdar As an Ohioan this feels like being the first of the last 4 kids picked for kickball on the playground…

This would be a massacre.

This is incredibly difficult to write, however a West Point brother needs us right now. Ben Lemon (2017) lost his 7-year-old son Solomon last month. His two remaining boys (ages 5 and 3) have the same rare mitochondrial disease. Ben and his lovely wife Katja are not giving up. They are researching trials, going to work, and fighting for their family.  Two things you can do right now: Share this post and support by giving what you can, link below: gofundme.com/f/nh893-help-t…  If you have connections in pharma or mitochondrial disease research, DM me directly. Pretzel Therapeutics (drug: PX578) is in trials that could change everything for his boys. For Solomon. And for the Lemon family. 🖤💛

A personal favorite. Can anyone actually disagree?

@EODHappyCaptain Ditto. 1,000,000%

Social media proves that No one gatekeeps being a veteran, like a veteran It seems online there is always a reason you’re not part of the club. You don’t have the right award. You didn’t see combat. You saw the wrong type of combat For what it’s worth, I’m proud of all of you.
