Gonna pay just 5% of my taxes on time next year and tell the IRS "the initial deadline is being met."

It should be standard everywhere from now on. There’s so much opposition to the ridiculous changing twice a year.
👏 Washington State Rep Matt Marshall (R) now sponsors HB 2119 to ditch Daylight Saving Time—thank you! 👉 Permanent Standard Time is naturally best for health. Please tell your WA state legislators to sponsor HB 2119 and SB 5001 in 2026!

Read this thread. Very much relevant to the world we're in right now and the future we may be looking at:
🧵In #WWII, the Nazis killed about 75% of Jews in the Netherlands because a highly efficient bureaucracy and precise population records made people perfectly visible to power. In France, where records were incomplete and administrative chaos reigned, roughly 80–90% survived. That difference

Just as we would expect from Trump. In spite of others on staff with brains giving him real data, these data are exactly what we expect from the Liar-in-Chief. Now less than THREE more years, assuming he stays in office for his full term.
I didn't watch but apparently it went about as we expected: nothing but total lies. Pathetic.

They’ve already paid 1000 FBI agents millions in overtime to spend weeks redacting the Nazi🤡’s name in the evidence. The GQP ran on releasing this evidence in 2024. The law requires them to release ALL of the evidence today.
NEWS: Deputy AG Todd Blanche says the DOJ will only release a partial batch of the Epstein files today, rather than all of them. Blanche says DOJ needs more time to make redactions.

I used to read you on FB; Glad to have found you on BSKY, but sorry you're not terribly active here. I left Twitter as soon as it was clear that Musk was taking over, so the only way i see your posts is when someone else shares.

Good morning from Milwaukee.

After the government rested, Judge Dugan’s lawyers moved for an acquittal: A key prosecution witness testified that Dugan personally directed her and her client to where federal agents were waiting.

Another norm he's trying to get rid of: our expectation of importance in presidential speeches to the nation & the habit of being sure to listen to them. In my life, until this man, notice of a speech to the nation found me watching to see what was so important and relevant that such an ... /1/

I know it's not the current "hot topic" (we bounce between them daily, it seems), but I was curious about any updates of the cost of refitting the Qatari plan. Seems it's up to +/- 1bn. You can read half of this article for free: www.forbes.com/sites/sarado...

The only time Article 5 of the NATO Treaty was invoked was to defend us, not for us to defend Europe. European soldiers and civilians died fighting with us and working next to us in Afghanistan. Europe was not attacked on September 11, 2001.

A Florida-based company is charging military veterans as much as $20,000 for help with disability claims, even though the VA has said that may be illegal and the service should be free. But so far nobody's stopping the company and others like it.
This company charges disabled vets millions, even after VA said it's likely illegal
