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?

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.

From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

Odd, how the United States doesn't have enough money to give sick veterans healthcare, impoverished seniors Social Security, or hungry schoolkids lunches, but it does have enough money to pay a Central American dictator millions to torture American residents in his brutal concentration camp.

It turns out a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and financial fraudster does not make for a good President.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Still one of the most outrageous things I’ve heard from these monsters and that’s saying a lot.
Dear Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, when struggling seniors call to complain about a Social Security check that didn't arrive, it doesn't mean they're criminals.

It means they're hungry. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
On Social Security, Trump Cabinet secretary inadvertently gives away the game
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick thinks those who complain about missing Social Security checks are probably criminals. That’s insane.

Goldberg said the level of detail in the targeting package that he received via Signal was down to the *names of individuals* to be killed.

That’s the good stuff that includes all kinds of sources and methods and never should have been outside a SCIF.

I’d be in prison if I fucked up that bad.

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this?

Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..

Imagine thinking a guy who charges around $100K for a vehicle with glued on metal panels that just fall off is the one to be trusted anywhere near our government.

Another piece of protesting advice from an Old Hippie: Do not engage with MAGAts. Let them rant. They're ranting because they're trying to convince THEMSELVES of their position. Remember, they're in a cult. Just let them finish, smile, and walk away.

Hey, Politico --

I consider myself to have "long-term standing in the private legal community" and I have been willing to speak out almost every single day. And, I'm not alone.

Yes, there is widespread cowardice among law firms, but don't ignore those refusing to bow down.

Defiantly,

Judge nails how the Trump team likely tried to evade courts:

"[T]he most reasonable inference is that iot hustled people onto those planes in the hopes of evading an injunction or perhaps preventing them from requesting the habeas hearing to which the Government now acknowledges they are entitled."
