Would you believe me if I said it's possible to: - cut the highest effective tax rates in the country below 50% - cut capital gains taxes by ~ 4% - have net income rise among the bottom 60% - AND raise > $600B revenue/year *very* progressively? @mattyglesias, @Noahpinion, @jdcmedlock

"Conservatives may decry the VAT as an instrument of European socialism, but they have proposed VATs themselves, just under alternative names. They speak of the VAT like the wizards in the Harry Potter stories speak of Voldemort—careful never to say the name."

This man is consistently one of the dumbest people in my replies. Every story from Ukraine confirms that drones rule the modern battlefield. Every military on Earth is racing to catch up in drone power. And yet this complete idiot is like "ONLY TECH BROS LIKE DRONES"
Corey@CoreyLeander

@Noahpinion How many times are you going to tweet this? We get it. You think drones are cool and neat because your SF tech bro neighbors do. The adults have to actually run things.

This may well be true, but even if it isn’t the fact that it’s plausible shows how seriously toxic the American left is. Reminds me of when Michelle Obama—who is a woman even if her party doesn’t know what a woman is—said she was proud of the country for the first time when her husband was elected. Such ignorance and lack of gratitude.

Foreigners visiting this country for the World Cup love America more than the average Democrat voter does.

@AndurilFan @Noahpinion But but but didn’t you know with enough drones one can penetrate underground at Natanz and destroy their nuclear program?!?

@CoreyLeander @Noahpinion Drones are super cool, but folks are recency bias pilled on this. Conventional platforms remain irreplaceable - e.g., 20 B21s each dropping 30K pounds of guided ordnance on your precious industrial base. Many military experts DO KNOW this. @Noahpinion is not a military expert.

@Schulzke @Noahpinion That pretending NATO militaries are obsolete because they don’t have to rely on drones is insane. Drones are great! But they’re not even close to everything.

@CoreyLeander @Noahpinion What's even debatable here? It's not SF tech bros - it's Ukrainian contact line bros and the rapidly growing number of military analyst bros flocking to study Robert Brovdi's drone krieg tactics in production, massing and adaptability.

@CoreyLeander @ishapiro @Heminator Why is his comment insane, girlyman? Also, you seem to care. Lastly, is it possible that Michelle is ignorant and ungrateful? She’s a bitter bitch who never practiced law, getting a BS admin job due to Barry’s lefty bosses in Chicago

Pro-Israel groups deliberately turned Israel into a polarized issue and alienated almost the whole Democratic Party for the sake of a war that turned out to be as disastrous as Obama warned them and is going to end up with a deal that’s worse for them than JCPOA was.

@hecubian_devil The fact is, both sides are of that question are correct characterizations. It's just that the description on the left is far right coded: "WASP" essentially It's actually a good thing, and progs are wrong. The withdrawn Smithsonian graphic from a few years ago is so telling!

@JamesMMiller2 @pteridoid @Noahpinion Is it? I think they won by not losing. US doesnt have political will to do what's necessary. Strait has been threatened for months now. Conflict still rages. If a stupid person thinks I lost the argument, then I think that's a plus for me.

@CoreyLeander @pteridoid @Noahpinion What you are trying to do is dismiss the fact that holding commercial ships at risk was how they won this conflict. And they did that with drones. Congratulations on losing the argument.

@JamesMMiller2 @pteridoid @Noahpinion Actually now I'm just having fun, but it's getting sad because you are short-circuiting after having to change your argument mid way through after realizing you misread a tweet. Since you've demonstrated you're not very intelligent, why should I waste my time?

@CoreyLeander @pteridoid @Noahpinion You're still engaging because you feel like a fucking moron. And you don't like to feel that way. But if you'd like to make an actual argument about the conflict that might be better and more healthy for you.

@CoreyLeander @pteridoid @Noahpinion I suppose that would require actually understanding the conflict... Which takes brains greater than that possessed by the average turnip. It's straining you isn't it?

@CoreyLeander @pteridoid @Noahpinion Yeah the point is that you are dodging the question. And you refuse to admit it because now it's your ego on the line. You feel stupid. And that's good. Because you are stupid as hell.

@JamesMMiller2 @pteridoid @Noahpinion I literally never did this. Are you illiterate? x.com/CoreyLeander/s… Yes referring to "evidence we all have" is definitely asking *you* for it. You literally cannot read while confidently telling me I'm stupid. Never change, Twitter morons.
Corey@CoreyLeander

@JamesMMiller2 @pteridoid @Noahpinion So you're saying NATO militaries are obsolete or Iran "fought us to a standstill" if you can provide evidence we all have of Iran holding commercial assets in the Strait at risk? And you have all this confidence, too!

@CoreyLeander @pteridoid @Noahpinion You asked me to show that they were putting commercial shipping at risk. I brought up the increase in insurance rates. And in response you said "I've already said I'm uninterested in liars and morons like you".

@JamesMMiller2 @pteridoid @Noahpinion "and then telling people not to respond to them." Where? "But you know that you are a fucking idiot. So you keep demanding that nobody argue with you." So true, James! Truly a revelation. I'm incredibly impressed you were able to divine that so quickly!
