@observer1492@ScottyOld The tariff tax hike will raise $2.3 trillion over the next decade, on a dynamic basis.
If taken on a static basis, dramatically more.
That is the largest tax hike in American history, whether you like to admit it or not.
Conservatives often say they are open to debate, but liberals are not.
This might be true for some liberals, but not for me. This is an open invitation.
If you are a conservative with a show and want to debate in good faith, dm me anytime.
@micah_erfan@observer1492@ScottyOld You’re not compensating for production moved to the US, nor weighting current tariffs projections for US made goods. Tariffs are a foreign facing tax. If you buy American with US only supply chains, the tax is zero. This why Trump is America first and you’re American last.
@PeterKellyBC@micah_erfan Not true. As of Oct, 27% of the tariff burden is paid by the importer and 18% by the foreign exporter. The projection is that by the end of the year, the foreign exporter will pay 25% of the tariff. cfr.org/article/who-pa…
@micah_erfan The whole legal argument of the Whitehouse is that tariffs aren't a tax, but here they are celebrating the revenue bonanza generated by this thing that only Americans are paying...as a tax.
Wheeeeeeee
@MichaelWolffNYC Trump trump trump. YOU are the one in emails trying to help Epstein. YOU are the one acknowledging the victims, looking for ways to implicate Trump and generate “political currency” for a pedophile.
Epstein may be the heart of darkness figure in American life that can't openly be talked about, but who people are yet compulsively interested in. Trump clearly benefits from this reluctance to talk about Epstein. But perhaps Trump benefits too from his connection to these dark forces--this nihilism in our time.
@FightStorage Uh, he assaulted her first. Then attacked her while she was completely defenseless and looking down. Dude deserves to be put in jail for a good year, this is not the behavior any man should want to be associated with.
@marla0801@cturnbull1968 It’s not misogyny to believe women do not have the right to kill their own babies, it’s belief in human rights for all humans. Also equating feeding children to abortion is like R’s advocating for the murder of homeless as a preferred alternative to housing them all.
@cturnbull1968 THIS! ⬆️
I’ve been screaming this for months.
Rs are pro-birth. NOT PRO-LIFE.
There is a difference.
The misogyny and hypocrisy run deep in the GOP.
Republicans urge single moms to have unwanted babies and the same Republicans want to cut all food aid to single mothers and children.
About 40% of all SNAP benefit recipients are children.
This is who they are and this is why they’re so reviled.
@allenanalysis Strange conclusion given the same blue states run the largest deficits vs red states. Given the post 2020 exodus of companies from NY/CA to TX/FL,2018 data is out dated. GDP is more correlated with areas of beauty/land/good weather where people want to live in spite of democrats.
I wish conservatives understood this:
Without blue states, America would look like a developing country — patchy internet, collapsing schools, no tech, no medicine, no future.
Red states cash the checks. Blue states write them.
You don’t fund the nation — you drain it. The loudest shouts come from the emptiest hands.
The "No Kings" protest in Washington DC is massive! Over 100,000 people are expected. It seems like even more than that may already be there!
America is fed up with Trump! #NoKings
@ImBreckWorsham@tsackett3 Those are huge but the boarder, tariffs, negotiating peace deals, government spending reform (USAID)… He was ask a fleeting question once about Epstein, and you let that out weigh the above, each of which affect hundreds of millions of Americans vs a handful of people.
I'm a 3-time Trump voter.
I worked two of his presidential campaigns.
In 10 months time, he's inspired me to remove my Trump bumper sticker on my SUV and replace it with a "Fuck Trump" bumper sticker on my SUV.
I don't care how you look at it.
That takes talent.
@bsimpkins2003@MAGAVoice You quite literally are complaining about someone trying to make neighborhoods save. Politics over safety America last is not cool.
@MAGAVoice Hegseth needs to worry about his own pushups and trying to do his job instead of acting like an asshole. Who does he think he is? Trump gets by with that crap but the rest of them need to shut up!
@MaiChrsta@libsoftiktok@netflix Ideally but if you are making decisions based on merit plus something else, merit will be deweighted in order to accommodate. Imagine artificially adding more whites/Asians to the NBA to match demographics. Merit would go down as being the best is no longer the sole focus.
Holy shlit
.@netflix appears to openly boasts about discriminating against White people.
In their inclusion & diversity report, they celebrate that the percentage of racially underrepresented directors and lead characters has been growing significantly over the past few years.
Why doesn’t netflix hire based on qualifications instead of skin color??
@AngeloPlasty@catturd2 Uh, if you deny the national guard but approve plain clothed under cover agents, 247 of them, the purpose is entrapment, not deterrence.
@HeightsConor@PerryALPHA@RealAlexJones Ridiculous given the twitter files, WH emails forcing Facebook to sensor COVID dissent, 2nd amendment attacks, Bidens illegal search and seizure of Mar a Lago, DEI violations of equal protection. The current admin is 2 for 28 with 4 pending at SCOTUS regarding the constitution.
@PerryALPHA@RealAlexJones How can you post this as truth when the literal republican administration we currently have is openly silencing people's free speech and attacking the amendments of the Constitution? So confusing
I am officially joining the Democratic Party as of today. In celebration of their wonderful work I have now adopted a hairstyle that matches their policies..
@80sBaby_Rick@camhigby@FearlessDebates These kids can’t handle differing ideas and resort to stealing, and gathering enough of a mob to forcibly move these folks off the bus. Blacks are not a monolith, nor is their collective ideology owned by the left.
@camhigby@FearlessDebates It wasn’t a riot. You are trying to create chaos in a peaceful place. No one black came to Utah and bothered you. Stay out of black folks business. I despise you people! You people = right winged, MAGA fascist
This is the EXTREMELY civil discussion that the riot at Tennessee State (HBCU) started with.
In this video you watch the mob grow, begin shouting, destroying our stuff, possessing weapons, blocking our way out, and screaming racist epithets.
All because of this civil convo.
