Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.
So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

I've been struggling a lot with what to do as a writer/artist in this time of need. Activism feels like it's always been a means of defiance, a way to break out of the cycle of oppression and pain.
But what do we do right now? Do we produce for an age of consumption/attention simply to be there?

A Dissonant Rage: What Are We To Do?
How do we address the state of the world? Why am I writing this as if I'd have any clue? A learned hopelessness, what to learn from a child's uncompromising will, and a slump of a conclusion to boot.

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

besides the incredibly false information presented by this administration being pessimistic at best - the attempt to dismantle federal education in favor of state determined funding leaves poor children more neglected and mandated equal resource is dismantled to allow the privatization of knowledge.

also the fact that the title of this article isn't "legal resident of the US deported by dictator for free speech protest against genocide" is traitorous in and of itself.

The move is an escalation in Trump's effort to increase deportations from the U.S. and strip protections from those who violate the new administration's priorities.

this is an absurd and misguided critique of media?? the russians are deplorable in the movie but regardless, diversity in ethnicity in america is unavoidable and should be as such. russians live here and engage in relationships with others is the crime? all support to ukraine but this is moot.
Morning from Kyiv!
As usual, we had drones at night.
Meanwhile,
the movie Anora, starring russian actors and telling the story of the love between a young woman and the son of a russian oligarch, won the most awards at the Oscars.
How quickly things change.
