@NakedHedgie Firing squad is a soldier’s death. Traitors hang.

This is the firing-squad level of high treason.

Senator Tom Cotton pushed Section 622 through the Senate Intelligence Committee, mandating deeper integration & expanded intelligence sharing between the CIA and Mossad. It puts strict limits on any U.S. decision & locks America into Israel’s priorities with almost no oversight.

@Orangutangu @clari_sew @FreddyLA7 Congrats. You can probably tolerate Austin for a few years if the money is right. But, you’ll eventually find yourself back in Florida. ❤️

@clari_sew @FreddyLA7 My company has an opening there and it’s big money to open a new branch. I applied and the director at HQ reached out and said I’m his top wigga

@phenn @Newman81Street @GraceGym_ Also you can buy peanut butter in the store that is only made of peanuts, or only peanuts and sugar or salt, etc.
English

@GraceGym_ I'll continue to buy my peanut butter. The cost and inconvenience of making your own isn't worth the pennies you'll save over store bought

@phenn @thatdayin1992 "Success" 🤡

Elon Musk has become the world’s first trillionaire as SpaceX becomes a publicly traded company. Shares opened at $150, setting valuation at $1.96 trillion.

@NathanJRobinson @RockChartrand How are you helping others, Nathan?
English

@RockChartrand I agree it's about scale. The more capacity you have to help people the more responsibility you have to do it. It has nothing to do with whether you created value in the process but with the lives you could save but choose not to.

@unusual_whales As a dual Swiss-Canadian living abroad I will be sure to vote in favor of this measure.

@maks_p @JonahDispatch AIPAC threw a quarter of a billion at Trump's campaign. You cross with them as well?
English

Play it out a bit. Look at the impact Elon has had on our government. He helped get Trump elected because he was able to throw what, a quarter billion dollars at the election no problem?
Now gas is $5 and kids in Africa are dying.
It’s bad for democracy, and democracy is good for the people.

I don’t mean to be callous. But if the IPO fizzled yesterday, would your situation be any different today? Are you worse off because he’s a trillionaire? Were you better off on Thursday when he wasn’t?
I Dissent@DissentFu
I am 52 years old. I have been working since I was 15 years old. I have no savings, no retirement, and will never own a home before I die. And there is now a trillionaire.

@DrunkRepub The gnashing of teeth has been truly biblical.

@vpEIGcqjs468750 @jimiuorio It's none of your business because it's none of your farking business. Take your grievances to the government. Not a private citizen. And, with that, I'm done. Ciao.
English

@phenn @jimiuorio why is it none of my business?? cause you say so? it is americans business when rich people are abusing the tax code.
i paid more of my earnings last year to the government than musk did from his, by percentage of income. there's no ands, ifs, or buts about it.
English

@vpEIGcqjs468750 @jimiuorio You're thinking personal income tax is the only tax we pay???? And, since he didn't write the tax code (once again, with feeling) take the matter up with your reps. Or, quit your bitching and find a better accountant. His wealth is still none of your business.
English

@phenn @jimiuorio no they don't, the effective tax rate for the average american is 13-15%. musk in the past decade has paid at an average effective tax rate of 1-8%, which is way less than the average american
English

@vpEIGcqjs468750 @jimiuorio He doesn't have a 'fixed' annual income, so you would literally have no way to land on that number. The average American pays far more than 14% and THAT is your problem. Again, you're pissed off at the wrong person/people.
English

@phenn @jimiuorio 11 billion is 1.1% of his annual income.
average american pays 14% of their annual income.
why is that fair?
English

@vpEIGcqjs468750 @jimiuorio That is not how income tax works. At all. Last bill he paid on personal tax was $11 billion - of his money. All his companies pay payroll tax, corp income tax, state & local tax, etc., etc.. If you want a fairer deal, tell your representative to stop spending so damn much.
English

@phenn @jimiuorio musk pays 1% of his annual income in taxes. the average american pays 14% of their annual income in taxes.
him skirting tax obligations means the average american, like me, pays more in taxes.
that is the business of all americans.
English

@vpEIGcqjs468750 @jimiuorio What other people earn and achieve doesn't affect your life one bit and is truly none of your business.
English

@jimiuorio wealth hoarding is unpopular among democratic americans, no one needs that much money--julius caesar didn't think so either
English

@RandyGoat @2ndGen360 He is convinced Elon is stealing from him. So, probably not the sharpest pin in the cushion.
English

@2ndGen360 This person definitely did something very wrong with their life.
