Putting, putting, putting. All weekend it's been the killer.

@dantypo Dealership service pricing is out of control and they are set up to exploit naive customers. When one gave me an estimate to replace my radiator for $1600 I vowed never to return. That's nearly $500/hr for labor.

My wife was at the dealership to get a tire rotation and balance. This was known to be a little over $100 and the oil change is about $100. So naturally we expected a bill of maybe $200-$220 when it was done. Wife texts and says it’s going to be $325. She said because they said I needed an air filter. So I called and asked them to itemize it for me before she drives off. The air filter was $75! I told them not to do it. He said “it’s already in” I said, “take it out, I just found a set of air and cabin filters for $20 as we talked. If I can get it for that, a Mazda dealer is getting it for less and it’s two thumb clips to change.” He said “I can’t do that” I said “you can and you will because if you don’t I’ll never buy there again and I’ll tell everyone and anyone not to. Is that worth the price of a $20 filter” He said, “ok, sir… but to be clear, she agreed to it” I said, “of course she did, but I didn’t set up an appointment for an air filter and I never would.” My point is this— people need to push back. This has all gotten incredibly ridiculous. Folks, I bought a filter set for a Maserati for $22 dollars and that was 2 air filters & a cabin filter, and all of 10 minutes TOTAL to replace. I truly believe that all of this has to do with us no longer teaching kids (or wives) that certain things in life are absolutely easy to do. *END RANT*

That drive on #1 by Bryson was AWESOME! Let's go!!!!

@SenSchumer Um, they are the authorities you dummy

Under no circumstances should anyone from Trump’s DOJ be allowed to privately interview Ghislaine Maxwell. The conflict of interest is glaring. It stinks of high corruption.

@profstonge Sounds like something an Islamic fundamentalist would say and believe.

Mamdani wants to empty jails because "Violence is an artificial construct" 🤪

@RealJamesWoods Nope

Will he ever be held accountable?

@4thOfJuly365 Parents

@novapilgrim It's never worked that way.

It’s genuinely bizarre watching Boomers convince themselves that a couple making $15/hour at 7 Eleven can buy a home, raise family, and retire. They’ll go down as the generation that was chronically delusional

@ninaturner Try speaking with actual facts, not ideological agenda

According to the Congressional Budget Office, the bottom 50% of Americans held 4% of the country’s wealth. By the 2020s, this had been cut in half to 2%. This is due to decades of tax breaks for corporations and billionaires.

@kirawontmiss 30% is ridiculous.

nah tipping culture is getting ridiculous…

@Nick_Pettigrew There a whole host of reasons polio fell by the wayside. Not just the vaccine.

Polio was eradicated because Jonas Salk chose not to patent the vaccine, if you want a perfect example of a socialist act.

@joeroganhq My mood suggests I don't want to hear her nonsense. She needs to go back to representing her constituency and stop trying to talk about the rest of us.

AOC to Trump: "He wanted to pick a fight with me…he’s going to lose that. Maybe don’t send our country into war when the vast majority of Americans…don’t want us randomly bombing countries cause you’re in some kind of mood."

@mcuban Do you think more companies would if it was reasonably priced? There are many companies trying to keep afloat and don't make enough margin in their industry to afford health care to all their employees and at least do employ people.

When a large employer pays so little that their full time employees qualify for Medicaid , (or any public assistance ) we the taxpayers are effectively subsidizing that big company. That’s wrong

@TheKevinDalton The streets are apparently the best place for him.

He just needs a house

@ThomasSowell Candidates like this gather up all the various oddball nonsensical fringe groups and form just enough of a coalition to put themselves in position to do real damage.

Zohran Mamdani: "We're going to provide $65 million of funding for gender-affirming care."

@KathyHochul @ZohranKMamdani Give one example where those types of feel good promises have been made into reality by any heavy handed social government spending plan.

Today, voters made their voices heard, demanding a more affordable, more livable New York City. I hear them loud and clear. @ZohranKMamdani built a formidable grassroots coalition, and I look forward to speaking with him in the days ahead about his ideas on how to ensure a safe, affordable, and livable New York City.

@EndWokeness Yikes. No wonder Congress can't seem to function.

Crockett on Trump's Iran moves: "I the one who meant to make these fckin decisions"

@mtgreenee Why don't you just give it a few days.

I spent millions of my own money and TRAVELED THE ENTIRE COUNTRY campaigning for President Trump and his MAGA agenda and his promises. And Trump’s MAGA agenda included these key promises: NO MORE FOREIGN WARS. NO MORE REGIME CHANGE. WORLD PEACE. And THIS is what the people voted for. Only 6 months in and we are back into foreign wars, regime change, and world war 3. It feels like a complete bait and switch to please the neocons, warmongers, military industrial complex contracts, and neocon tv personalities that MAGA hates and who were NEVER TRUMPERS! After the bombs were dropped, we were told “complete success” and Iran’s nuclear capabilities were totally wiped out. Then it quickly turned to Iran’s nuclear facilities “partially damaged” and now it’s “we don’t know where their enriched uranium is.” Let me be very clear. My children are 22, 25, and 27. I will literally fight ANYONE for their future. And their future and their entire generation’s future MUST be free of America LAST foreign wars that provoke terrorists attacks on our homeland, military drafts, and NUCLEAR WAR. I am FIGHTING for them to have a future where they can afford to buy a home, afford insurance, invest for retirement, enjoy life, retain their God given freedoms, afford to raise a family under their Christian faith, not be in debt, safety and security, AND NOT HAVE OUR OWN TAX PAYER FUNDED GOVERNMENT DESTROY IT ALL. Contrary to brainwashed Democrat boomers think and protest about, Trump is not a king, MAGA is not a cult, and I can and DO have my own opinion.

@AOC It's not, but you do you.

The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

@Ronxyz00 Where can I get on the list to make a few bucks protesting like these folks? Pick up one of those pre printed signs?
