A "handout" is when members of congress get paid for taking a month off.

A handout is when a guy worth almost a TRILLION dollars comes crying for another tax cut- and gets it, while employees are paid a wage that was *barely* survivable in 2009, the last time it was raised!

This is incredible… as @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social says — it’s a Monday night in North Carolina — and folks have had it with Trump and his administration.

Brooke Rollins on food stamps: "We know the SNAP program is rife with fraud... what we've found is stunning. 186,000 deceased individuals receiving benefits, 500,000 getting 2 times the benefit, we found thousands of individuals getting benefits in 6 different states. It is one thing after another."

This entire administration freaks out & runs out of the room when anyone in their vicinity experiences an emergency.
Vance literally left an officer down after a crash. Vance’s motorcade just kept going.

The officer is in critical condition.

every day we have to hear some new nonsense from AI boosters about what it will be able to do for us someday. no different from any of Elon's predictions - they're lies to keep investor/government cash flowing. when the bubble pops we need to make clear there will be no tolerance for bailouts

The lack of a single first-team practice rep for QB Shedeur Sanders showed on Sunday. It's another byproduct of the Browns constantly building for a future that never comes to fruition.

Sadly, this MPD-ICE arrest is a nearly daily occurrence in DC now.

The DC police officers we pay with our tax dollars are being used to disappear our own neighbors and rip them away from their families.

All while our so-called leaders lie and pretend they are powerless to stop it.
D.C. leaders oppose patrols with DHS. Are they powerless to stop them?
The arrest comes as some D.C. residents have expressed mounting frustration with city officials over the level of police cooperation with immigration officials.

This barely got any notice given all the crap that's going on. But Trump is giving even more tax cuts to the wealthy by weakening the Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax. Even the American Enterprise Institute calls this an unconstitutional power grab.

Trump's Treasury is overstepping far beyond its constitutional role by giving unlegislated tax cuts to the wealthy.

It's against international law & US law. It's also an poor way to fight drug smugglers. To be useful, they stop the boats, & search for illegal substances. If they find any, they seize it as evidence & arrest the crew for questioning, to learn who's running the drug cartel & arrest them.
