The term we should use for MAGA devotees is 'Slave' - as in volunteering themselves into slavery by willfully giving up their rights and responsibilities as citizens to become subjects of their slave master.

$1.1 trillion in tax cuts for those earning over $500,000 a year paid for by $1.1 trillion in budget cuts to services for low income Americans. The Big Beautiful Bill, reverse Robin Hood legislation. If you're rich get ready to get richer, and if you're poor, get ready to get poorer.

Maybe we should go a step further. Maybe we should add MAGA to the slogan.

Make America Great Again
Tax the Rich like it's 1946!

Tax the Rich
Like we did in 1946

1946 was a year after the end of World War 2. At that time we were rebuilding our economy after fighting Germany and Japan. From that position we rose to become the greatest power on earth. How did we do that? No small part of that formula was how we taxed the utlra wealthy in our country.

We need to go back to the tax system we used in the United States the year after we defeated Fascim and utterly destroyed Communism's march into Europe, for the sake of the freedom our founder father's dreamed of! Not Oligarchy!

Tax the Rich
Like we did in 1946!

This is a crisis, this deficit cannnot go on! Instead of making the rich richer and gutting our safety nets, we need to return to our post WWII taxing system, the system that saved us then and will save us now.

The richest man in the world cutting benefits to veterans. You can't polish that turd.

Make no mistake we are facing not a slew of assaults on our constitution, but one single assault with many fronts, like a hydra with many heads. This is nothing less than a violent ambush of our very way of life.

All I can think while Pete Hegseth is handed the reigns to the most powerful military in the world, as an abuser of those less fortunate than himself, as a man with little to no experience running large organizations, as a Fox News personality, is that we (the collective we) are fucked.

A certain lawmaker from Tennessee is pushing a bill to change the constitution in a way that would allow Trump a third term. Maybe the Birthright challenge is a test? If they can open up the constitution to get the 14th amendment removed does that pave the way for removing the 22nd amendment?

To the people of California, NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!!!!

Same battle cry that founded this nation. You need to use it NOW!

As long as emotion—and misinformation— drive our political discourse, some will feel justified to lie to us and to bring us violent remedies to our imagined threats. We must resist their lies. Truth must be our primary weapon against these dark times. Keep seeking and spreading the truth!

Elon Musk is a con artist. All he is good at is fooling people.

California pays far more ($83 billion more in 2022 for example) taxes than it receives and yet the Republicans want to force a debt ceiling expansion as a requirement for wild fire aid? Maybe California should stop paying the US Government and use the tax surplus internally.
