@ramit Why would a hospital be so reliant on government subsidies? Seems like that isn't a very good business decision.

Democrats need to go dark woke on this immediately Every hospital and clinic that closes should have a massive 4-story sign that says THIS HOSPITAL IS CLOSED BECAUSE OF THE REPUBLICAN "BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL." VOTE IN NOVEMBER

@jaysbookman No. He is just trying to eliminate fraud. You know, with the electronic voting machines and mail-in ballots. And illegal immigrants are not eligible to vote so ICE at the polling stations will prevent that from happening. Honest, fair elections and let the best candidates win.

Donald Trump wants to put Donald Trump in charge of nat'l elections, so if Donald Trump comes up 11,800 votes short, he can go to Donald Trump and demand that Donald Trump "find" the votes needed. Donald Trump knows Donald Trump will never let Donald Trump lose an election again.

@tomryanlaw Do you get angry about Somali learing centers?

I DO NOT PAY MY FEDERAL TAXES SO KID ROCK CAN HAVE A PRIVATE MILITARY HELICOPTER SHOW AT HIS HOUSE IN NASHVILLE. COLOR ME PISSED!

@resetbasis The bigger question is: why are they based on the value of your house vs. the amount of government services you use?

Property taxes are an output that homeowners must absorb. The input, which varies by municipality, is the amount of waste, fraud, and unnecessary government jobs. “Services” is the lie everyone tells themselves.

@MatrixMysteries Why would you get a philosophy degree? Are there even jobs in that field?

“I spent $250,000 on a philosophy degree and I can’t find ANY work.” Years in class. Six figures in debt. ZERO payoff. She didn’t fail the system — the system sold her a LIE.

@FoxNews He had a 0.0 BAC. Literally no alcohol in his system. Maybe a few prescription meds prescribed by his Doctor.

BREAKING: Tiger Woods has entered a plea of not guilty in his Florida DUI arrest. He has waived his arraignment and demands a trial with a jury.

@GovernorShapiro What happens when the state elections are corrupted? For example, why was there a truckload of filled out ballots driven from NY to Lancaster, PA in the 2020 election? Only reason I can think of is fraud.

President Trump can sign whatever the hell he wants to, but it won’t change the Constitution. The authority to set our election rules belongs to the states — and as Governor, I will protect your right to vote. That includes your right to vote by mail.

@vrexec Why would you buy a house to stay for only 5 years? Seems like a whole lot of work and movi g/furniture purchasing decorating to stay for such a short time.

I'm doing some back of the envelope math on buying vs renting. Say you buy a $1M house with 20% down at about 6% mortgage rate and plan to stay there for five years. Your principal paydown in the first five years is about $57,000, but you've paid about $230,000 in interest. You've also paid roughly $100,000 in property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. Say the house appreciated 2.5% every year — so when you sell it's worth about $1.13 million. Your all-in costs to sell are about 7.5% — brokerage commissions, transfer taxes, attorney fees, title insurance, and the inevitable post-inspection negotiation. On a $1.13M sale that's about $85K in fees. So you net about $1.046M. You still owe $743K on the mortgage. You walk away with about $303K in cash — your $200K down payment back, your $57K in principal, and about $46K in net profit from appreciation. Your non-recoverable costs — interest, property tax, insurance, maintenance — were about $330K over five years, or about $5,500/month. That's your effective rent. But you "made" $46K selling, or about $770/month — so your effective rent was about $4,700/month. Not bad, but you tied up $200K for five years to get there. And if appreciation was 1.5% instead of 2.5%, that net gain basically disappears and you're paying $5,400+/month in effective rent. And this assumes there's appreciation at all — and that something doesn't go wrong with your house that needs a major remodel or repair. On a five-year horizon at 6% rates, you need everything to go right on appreciation just to make ownership competitive with renting. The transaction costs eat most of your upside. What am I missing? Anything?

@BOSSportsGordo Pretty sure its to hide the license plate and to make a quick getaway.

Serious question for people who back into parking spaces - what’s the point?

@GrantHorvatGolf I'd say 8 iron or 56 degree.

Wesley Bryan and I got into a heated argument about what the majority of people’s favorite club is. I will stand firm and say it’s a 7 iron. There’s something about that club that’s very different than an 8 and 6. Wesley said a driver or 60 degree is the majority favorite. Who’s right here?

@theficouple How does $3 million set you up for life???

Once you have a $3 million net-worth? It no longer makes sense to keep investing aggressively. You won the game, you're set for life now just use money to enjoy life. ...Do you agree!?

@progressvoice Because we don't want socialism.

Why didn’t we choose him??

@Maga4liberty That is discrimination.

What do you think about taxing billionaires at a higher percentage rate???

@rushicrypto But we already pay 1. Sales tax 2. State income tax 3. Federal income tax 4. Social security tax 5. State capital gains taxe 6. Federal capital gains tax 7. Medicare tax 8. Inheritance/death tax Seems like this would be enough to cover public services without a property tax.

I’m very confused about the number of people who think “property tax” is a sales tax on you home rather than taxes to pay for public services you use every day. “I paid off my home why do i still pay property taxes?!?!?” Oh, did you also stop using the roads and libraries and sidewalks and parks? Not worried about fires anymore?

@ewarren What is the difference between generate and confiscate?

The Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act would generate over $6 trillion over the next decade—without raising taxes on 99.85% of American households. This wealth tax for millionaires and billionaires could pay for universal child care, free community college, Medicare expansion, and more.

@RepMarkPocan What about the Billions for fraud?

Isn’t it interesting how we always have billions of dollars for bombs but never enough for helping American citizens meet their basic needs?

@even_steven8tht Who pays for it? Thats the problem.

America is such a fascinating place because this man is providing a service that actually materially benefits people, arguably what the government is designed to do, and you will still see articles upon articles trying to convince you he’s actually doing a bad thing.

@em_Lazzy How about Biden...take vaccine or lose your job? Obama forcing citizens to purchase health insurance? No kings!

Over 8 million people showed up yesterday—and this is the response??? Not leadership. Not reflection. Just ego and immaturity. There is absolutely nothing presidential about this. It’s honestly embarrassing!!!

@DCataneo @Milajoy Highly doubtful. What about the fraudulent ballots. Were you counting them because they should be eliminated from the count. The audit counted the fraudulent ballots. Lets get a recounts without them to see all of the candidates totals.

The claim of Fulton County certifying 17K+ votes without ballots is inaccurate. It refers to a resolved 2020 recount discrepancy of ~17K ballots due to a duplicate file name error; all ballots were accounted for & results confirmed in audits. No fraud found. cnn.com/2026/02/10/pol… reuters.com/article/fact-c… sos.ga.gov/news/historic-…

Holy craaap! It is being reported that Fulton County, GA certified over 17,000 votes in the 2020 election for which there was no ballot! Trump lost Georgia by just over 11,000 votes. Brian Kemp and Brad Raffensperger are going to need good lawyers. They are about to FO.

@Milajoy 0

What is the chance that Joe Biden got 81 million votes in 2020? 0%-100%.
