@TrustlessState They should do it for love of country. Bribes and thievery will certainly cover any cost associated with the job. 🤑

Unironically, congress members should be paid 600k-800k a year
Strong financial compensation is a fundamental deterrent for corruption and alternative interests
Rep. Jack Kimble@RepJackKimble
Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

@Sassafrass_84 What does she think about the fact that 33 Senators and about 34 House member are all 75 and older?
English
What a horrible thing to say. I love older people.
You really are a nasty one.
This is what an infiltrator looks like, folks.
Dont alienate our older generation. They deserve our love and respect.

Who is the most notorious liar in modern political history?

@RepJackKimble You get benefits for basically working part tyme plus over $150/hour and you expect us to really care. A vast majority of Americans get nowhere near that. Go fly a kite...

A decade ago, Hollywood decided it would no longer honor films based purely on merit but also on the diversity of the cast and production team. In 2020, they formally tied Best Picture to diversity.
The Academy expanded its membership by roughly 40% in a decade through an explicit push to diversify its ranks.
The Oscars will proudly tell you that last year’s invitees were:
>41% women
>45% people of color
>55% from overseas
For 88 years, the Academy selected members and honored achievement based on merit. For the last 10 years, invitees went from 112 per year to over 900 to meet diversity targets.
This devalues and dishonors great American films and creates perverse incentives that lead studios to inflate diversity numbers in hopes of recognition by their woke peers.
Meritocracy must be restored to film.

Voting is a constitutional right, not a loyalty test.
In New York, we’re protecting voters from ICE interference and intimidation at polling places.

@Broncos4six Some folks never learn from their previous mistakes. Being right or wrong doesn't matter anymore, it's all about garnering attention.

BREAKING: "We believe that at least half of the hospices in the entire area around Los Angeles are fraudulent."
"Today we announce 800 of those hospices have been suspended. 800 hospices that last year charged the federal taxpayer $1.4 billion will no longer be paid." - CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz

@RoKhanna Can we please pass a law where stupid people cannot hold office?

South Carolina, where the first shot of the civil war was fired, where 40 percent of those enslaved came through the Charleston port, is today engaged in an ugly recidivism to draw maps that will deny a Black person the chance to serve in Congress.
The stakes could not be higher.
Our political fight is not on a playground, but a moral battleground.
We must stand for Black representation across the South.

@CommonSenseSoln @JoshWalkos What a stupid thing to say. You think no-one pays? The burden is thrust upon us every tyme we pay for insurance. You are an ass to the infinite degree.
English
@JoshWalkos You forgot to mention that after insurance and hospital reductions, the mom paid only $2,137. So stop with the bs rage bait about the total bill.
I have an oncology doctor friend who told me they write off $1 million of drugs every month. It's all smoke and mirrors.

This guy is calling a hospital on behalf of a new mom who was charged $1,847,392 because her baby was premature and needed to stay alive long enough to come home.
The itemized charges are dystopian. $37,464 for heel sticks on a premature infant, $58 every time a mother held her own baby skin-to-skin in the NICU, $312 for discharge teaching on how to sponge bathe a preemie and $27,590 for phototherapy lights. That’s before even getting into the NICU bed charges.
Our medical system is one of the most corrupt, exploitative and evil rackets in the world.

@JoshWalkos I can't help but wonder how every single American would be so much better off without the immense abuse and fraud that thrives around us.

War abroad is driving up costs, and Colorado families are paying the price.
Affordability isn’t abstract — it’s what families feel at the grocery store, at the gas pump, and around the kitchen table. We need leadership focused on actually bringing costs down for Coloradans.

@KalanisCalves Silly. Tipping is a reward for good service and incentivizes those who contribute to an enjoyable experience. Take that away and see how bad eating out becomes. That being said, tipping should not be automatic or mandatory.

@RepPettersen Thanks for pointing out your metal illness. Having Stage IV TDS must be horrible. Funny that if this was a Democrat idea, you'd be praising it. And you wonder why you have no credibility with free thinking people.

Is this a joke? Moms don't need some propaganda website telling them what choices to make.
They need to be able to pay for groceries, health care, and a roof over their families' heads.
Stop pretending you care about families while making their lives harder every single day.
