@SonofKrypton16 @unusual_whales Bull shit

@unusual_whales I literally had to pay federal for the first time ever this year with no change in income from 2024, thanks! This is all bullshit

"Americans might not know it, but they’re getting bigger refunds or owing less this tax season," per WSJ

@ldnelson3 @unusual_whales That’s your problem. Not tax law

@unusual_whales I owed 16k, about 11k more than prior years

@TronDiction @unusual_whales Yes

@unusual_whales I can confirm I paid less this year… is it worth the mental and societal collapse tho?’ 🤔

@goldendoorknob2 @unusual_whales It’s Happening.

@unusual_whales If we don’t know it, then it’s probably not happening

@cagirl12345 @unusual_whales I got more money back and so did most people

@unusual_whales Yeah we definitely don’t know it. Our tax liability was ridiculous.

@convosandbeer @unusual_whales It’s true fool.

@unusual_whales It's funny they say this JUST as everyone finished their taxes and is calling BS 😂

@_Sagiquarius_ @unusual_whales So?

@unusual_whales 100% false. I had to pay $375 because of the interest earned on my savings account WHILE I'm still looking for work.

@M_Peaceful_T @unusual_whales You don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about do you?

@unusual_whales Gas is $4.07 here. I give two 💩 💩 right now about a refund on a interest free loan that was my money in the first place.

@LoweredLine @unusual_whales To bad. But did you work overtime? Tips? Have a mortgage in a blue state?

@unusual_whales We got fucking fried i paid an extra 100 every single week expecting a decent refund but instead we got 1100 back where the fuck did the extra go? If I hadn't been paying extra we would've been absolutely hosed

@dondank69 @EricLDaugh She was the worst candidate ever. Next time stop being woke and bring a better candidate.

@dondank69 @EricLDaugh Did you support Kamala?

🚨 HAL LAMBERT JUST CALLED IT OUT "David Axelrod goes and visits Pope Leo...all of a sudden, now Pope Leo is out attacking Trump and the policies of the United States and Israel." "Axelrod is the chief strategist for Obama. The Pope was saying he's not political. Why is he meeting with the chief strategist for both Obama's campaign and in the White House?" "Let me ask you this. When Iran killed 30,000 plus of their own citizens, he didn't call out the Iranian regime at all. He said, we need to stop violence." "That was very milquetoast. That wasn't calling out the Iranian regime, and yet he's calling out the United States and Israel." "This is all about trying to hurt President Trump's Catholic vote during the midterms and Republicans are in the midterms." "You have three cardinals come out today attacking the immigration policy. This is all about trying to get the Catholic vote against Trump."

@MsAnnaBaxter @jamestalarico Anna you are quite close to what people call an - idiot.

@jamestalarico One big ugly bill reversed trillions of wealth from the middle and lower classes to the wealthiest among us. Anyone who brags that they saw a larger return is in denial.

Today is Tax Day. This year, nearly every American will pay more in taxes — except for billionaires. For 50 years, billionaires have bought politicians to rewrite the tax code in their favor. Here’s how:

@MsAnnaBaxter @jamestalarico I saw a larger return.

@jamestalarico @TheDemocrats You are such a liar!

@McBrideLawNYC Trump would be loved so much more if he just got off X or whatever one he’s on. He always has good points but always comes off as crazy.

Trump's criticism of the Pope on political matters is a non-issue. The Pope and Trump are the heads of nation-states. The Pope took an adversarial position against Trump. Politics is politics. That is that. Trump, however, is not free to insult Jesus without consequence.

@TruthJustis4USA @pompey_g @RepFine Wrong, they do the work for cheap. That’s the only difference. Americans will do it for the right price.

@RepFine While there are a lot of idiots in the Republican Party, you have to be in the top 5. The undocumented do the work that Americans won't. Work that we need done. Multiple studies have shown that the undocumented provide more for the economy than they get.

The affordability crisis in America can be fixed with one simple solution. Send the MILLIONS of illegals back home. The cost of Housing, Healthcare, Education, and Car Insurance will all be cheaper because illegals won’t be a strain on the system any longer.  That is how we solve the affordability problem.

@jackal84728450 @BlueBird_Invest @_The_Prophet__ You need to learn comprehension.

@jackal84728450 @BlueBird_Invest @_The_Prophet__ Nobody said you could. But if you have a trust you avoid probate. Who wants probate.

⚡️The American university system is the largest wealth transfer from the young to the old in human history and nobody frames it that way because the people who benefit from it control the framing. Eighteen year olds who can’t legally buy a beer are signing six figure debt obligations to institutions that face zero accountability for outcomes. The loan is non-dischargeable in bankruptcy. The university gets paid regardless of whether the student gets a job. The incentive structure is pure extraction. Get them in. Get the money. What happens after is their problem. 43% underemployment isn’t a failure of the students. These kids did exactly what they were told. Study hard. Get good grades. Go to college. Get the degree. They followed the script perfectly and the script was a lie. Not a lie that anyone intended maliciously at first. But a lie that became profitable enough that nobody corrected it even after the data made it obvious. The people who designed this system, the administrators pulling $500k salaries, the tenured professors teaching subjects with zero market application, the loan servicers collecting interest on degrees in fields that haven’t produced a living wage in twenty years. None of them are underemployed. They’re doing fine. The 43% is subsidizing their comfort. Now add AI. The entry level professional jobs that justified the debt are the first ones being compressed. Not blue collar work. Not trades. The exact white collar knowledge work positions that the degree was supposed to unlock. Legal research. Financial analysis. Consulting grunt work. Content production. The 43% who are already underemployed are about to be joined by a significant chunk of the 57% who thought they made it. The people who will come through this are the ones who figured out early that the credential was a trap. The ones who built skills instead of collecting letters after their name. The ones who found asymmetric paths. The ones who created value directly instead of waiting for an institution to certify them as valuable. The university system had a real function once. It produced genuine education and genuine opportunity. That function has been hollowed out by decades of misaligned incentives until what remains is mostly a financing operation that happens to have classrooms attached. And 43% of its recent customers just confirmed with their own lives that the product doesn’t work.

@B_Zski @RedWavePress @PaulRieckhoff He’s a loser

@RedWavePress @PaulRieckhoff what puts this guys! He’s embarrassing for fellow vets

Left-wing NUTJOB Paul Rieckhoff is UPSET that women won’t be automatically registered for the military draft alongside men ages 18-26. “Women should have the right to fight and die and serve their country as well.” “It was passed by the GOP Congress and includes women.” “This legislation excludes women. It is very much a GOP culture war initiative that has excluded women from maybe the most basic area of equality.” “There’s a generation of chicken hawks that want to send other people’s kids to die, and the president most of all. Barron Trump is not signing up to go to Iran. And that’s important.”
