The IRS launched its own tax filing program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free.

Tax prep companies like Intuit lobbied for years to stop the IRS from doing this. 

Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration. Now Trump is gutting the program.

Hello?

A friend of mine has coined the term “Pinocheting” to describe what the government is doing to these prisoners.
Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

8. An SSA source said there are "no significant concerns about fraud at intake" because multiple layers of ID verification take place before a claim is approved.

The source said they believe the new steps are an effort to "create additional hurdles to filing claims and overwhelm the system."

Trump should start with Adderall, ketamine, cocaine, and heroin abuse. Also those that enable drug dealers.

There's a reason they accept every Republican lie without question and do exactly as they're told even if it gets people or even themselves killed. www.theauthoritarians.org

Totally agree. And you can’t run a government like a business. That doesn’t serve the people.

I agree with this.
Merrick Garland,

Drop the appeal to reinstate the indictments for Nauta and De Oliveira. The Trump DOJ will do it anyway.

Release both volumes of the Special Counsel report.

Do not become an unwitting accomplice in their efforts to suppress the truth.

Sincerely,

Sane America

While Trump is trolling Canada about annexing it, Canadians are in Los Angeles tonight dropping water on the Palisades fire. He’s a disgrace.

Trump claims Greenland is needed for self defense. Hmmmm, from who?

Answer: Russia

So maybe instead let’s just make sure Russia is defeated in Ukraine?

Makes sense

Leave message for Merrick Garland to release the Jack Smith report. We paid for it. We deserve to know contents. Trump will soon be in power & the report will surely be destroyed or 'edited'.

Like all corrupt & criminal people, Trump despises transparency and fears accountability. Hey Merrick Garland, release the final fucking report now.
Merrick Garland failed miserably in delivering justice for Trump’s numerous crimes. The absolute LEAST he can do is release Jack Smith’s report so the American people will learn the facts. Publishing the results of special counsel investigations is the norm — burying the truth would be indefensible.

“Trump’s demand that Smith’s report be suppressed is a useful reminder that he really hates truthful accounts of January 6th, even if—especially if—they are based on testimony under oath from many different individuals, including many who worked for him.“
"The loathing is easily understandable. Politicians don’t like scrutiny. But one senses in addition to the hatred and the loathing, there’s an element of fear." Even more important, then.

He lied! When he knew that what children who died were given was something that was not vaccine he blamed vaccine. He knew it was not vaccine and he lied. And because of that many more children died. He never acknowledged he was wrong, he never apologized, the never took responsibility.

Everyone knows the Washingon Post is in turmoil, bleeding subscribers, journalists, reader respect. But if the boss is asking how to attract Trump supporters that means self-respect is eroding too. For me, at least, that's a step further than I thought we were at. www.semafor.com/newsletter/0...
