@stevesi "No stake," you wrote, discounting CA sales taxes?

This would mean half the families have no stake in funding state government or said another way, more than half the voters will control the amount the less than other half of people contribute to fund the greater number of people. Seems unstable to me.

0% state income tax for California families making under $100,000. That’s thousands of dollars back in your pocket where it belongs. As Governor, I’ll work the issue at both ends—lowering taxes for those who are struggling and raising them on the biggest corporations that can afford to pay.

It's amazing to me how many Americans and Canadians are telling ME what's happening here in Puerto Vallarta and making up falsehoods based on hearing things from a "friend of a friend" or via social media. I'm actually here. I've lived here for 6 years and these people in their armchairs are trying to lecture ME on what it's like HERE. Hilarious. These are the people that came here once years ago, never left their all inclusive resort and think they actually witnessed Mexico.

BREAKING: The federal judges in the Eastern District of Virginia unanimously appointed longtime litigator James W. Hundley to serve as interim U.S. attorney on Friday — and the Trump Justice Department almost immediately fired him.

@stevesi Post-protest reality check: did last night's protest turn violent? Did the city leadership instruct Seattle PD to stand aside while protesters ran amok? Not as far as I can tell. Did you see anything untowards?

@stevesi Come on, man. "Rather than protect residents and property?" Where in that notice does the city say it will not be protecting residents and property?

@PalmerLuckey @paulg Police misconduct expert here, but never mind that, as an astute student of the blatantly obvious, you should recognize intuitively that shooting the driver of a moving vehicle confers ZERO tactical defense to a person standing in front of it. As illustrated here.

@paulg Criticizing people who still actually live in the United States on these grounds really rings hollow when your own tweets have contained several clearly false claims. x.com/i/status/20091…

@paulg @elonmusk Hi Paul, she hit the gas with her wheels turned to the left, straight at the agent. Then he pulls his gun, then she turns right, captured in the still frame you posted. She gasses it so hard with her wheels left that her tires spin. x.com/i/status/20091…

Initially I was surprised at people's ability to ignore evidence leading to conclusions they don't like, even with multiple videos of the scene. But then I remembered that 34% of Americans don't believe in evolution.

@PeterTicktin @annvandersteel @LegalBrains Friendly reminder: the 6th amendment does not compel you to take on motions so stupid that their practice demeans you, your firm, the law, and your whole entire profession.

The fight for #TinaPeters isn’t over. Her pardon changed the legal landscape and now Colorado courts must answer a constitutional question about authority and her detention. The brilliant Peter Ticktin is challenging the court in Colorado. @LegalBrains Justice and due process demand her release while this is resolved. #FreeTina #JusticeForTina

In TN, we have no income tax, property tax is 1/6th of what we paid in LA County, and gas is half the cost...yet we magically have roads, sanitation, police, EMS, and our local high school looks like the White House. You’re being lied to about where your tax dollars go, CA.

@texasrunnerDFW Y'all in the replies sound like a bunch of leftists. "Big housing is price gouging!" "An industry that can't pay a living wage doesn't deserve to survive!" Are we living in Bizarroworld now? Istg by this time next week you'll be clamoring for affordable health care.

@mjwtxcalnyc @Hotshot_Movie TX externalizes a huge chunk of its tax base via severance taxes on fossil resource extraction. CA doesn't. Is this fact, like... news to you?

@Hotshot_Movie Texan living in SoCal… when you try and address this with SoCal peeps they look at you like you’re a low class right wing troublemaker. Hi-jacked brain cells. It’s so bad in San Diego, literally headed straight towards the same terrifying disaster that has become San Francisco.

@octal Ah, Texas! Freest State in the Union! Where you have to upload your driver's license to look at porn, can't buy weed, and the AG will prosecute you if you help someone cross state lines for an abortion. Also no public land and HOAs are the fourth branch of government.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia case mystery: After issuing a sealed order last week, a federal judge cancelled a hearing this week on Abrego's vindictive prosecution motion. Trump's DOJ moved to partially reconsider the ruling, and the judge scheduled a sealed, ex-parte hearing tomorrow.
