I started using Free File Fillable Forms, and it really does help me understand how my income is getting taxed.
What *doesn't* help me understand the tax code is tax prep software like TurboTax. The IRS should be allowed to offer tax prep software to everyone.

funny how Jeff Bezos pivoted to " We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets" thinking that would be obviously pro-trump

Good way to start a Monday morning, reading what was said over the police scanners in Philadelphia. Happy day-after the Super bowl for all who celebrate
Just a reminder, that if Philadelphia wins... go to the TRUE after-game show:
Pull up an internet police scanner of the Philly metro area.
NOTHING will stop the downtown celebration/riot. Listening to the police mostly stand to the side and try to stay out of the way is the best entertainment.

Notably, Barnica died in September 2021—months before the June 2022 Dobbs decision. She was killed by SB8, Texas’ pre-Dobbs 6-week ban, which the Supreme Court allowed to go into effect on September 1, 2021. Barnica started miscarrying on September 2.

The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

In 1907, Congress passed a law that American women lost their citizenship if they married a non-citizen. In 1915, the Supreme Court ruled to uphold this act.
It was changed in 1940, but citizenship was not restored to those women, nor their children.

Some people think the threat doesn't apply to them. But there is nothing you can do to prove you're a citizen to a govt that doesn't want you to be, b/c the way you prove it is by giving them your documents. and then they have your documents.
& that's if they don't change the rules retrospectively.

"threat" is important here, because they don't even have to do it to everyone; they just have to do it to enough people to frighten everyone else into accepting second-class citizenship: "don't make trouble or..." "don't ask for higher wages or..." "don't unionize or..." "don't protest or..."
