    Should billionaires exist?

    Asked directly whether billionaires should have a right to exist, Mamdani, who identifies himself as a democratic socialist, told NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” “I don’t think that we should have billionaires because, frankly, it is so much money in a moment of such inequality, and ultimately, what we need more of is equality across our city and across our state and across our country.”

    “We’re seeing that our vision to tax the top 1% of New Yorkers — these are New Yorkers who make a million dollars a year or more — and our proposal is to just tax them by 2% additional, is something that has broad support, and we’ll continue to increase that support over the next few months.”

    Well that didn’t take long. The Senate Parliamentarian struck the deal to treat Alaska differently than 48 ‘contiguous’ states and got Murkowski on board.

    The only way she can save her constituents from pretty devastating cuts is to vote the whole package down.

    Alaska is a Federal welfare state to the tune of $11b per year.

    The only way she can save her constituents from pretty devastating cuts is to vote the whole package down.

    Murkowski’s vote is not needed. It was 51-49 yesterday, so if she flips and no other votes are changed, Vance will break the tie.

    So voting the package down might not make any difference at all.

    PP is a health care organization. What you Republicans really are doing is denying health care to the women PP serves (not just with abortion services). And women vote.

    When you look at everything Republicans are doing to women — forced motherhood, pushing them out of careers, threatening prison for miscarriages, and so on — the best way for women to fight back, besides voting against Republicans, is by refusing to have sex with men. Especially Republican men. That solves a lot of GOP-inflicted problems for them.

    With a nod to the blue state House Republicans (and Democrats!) the Senate-passed BBB version retains the $40,000 SALT deduction limitation. That number grows 1% per year. Best of all, it’s in effect for 2025.

    Unfortunately, there’s a phase out for incomes about $500k, which means McHillbilly and I won’t be able to claim all of it. We console ourselves with the knowledge that Welfare Queen YLB’s fucked kids still get to pay for it all.

    … the best way for women to fight back, besides voting against Republicans, is by refusing to have sex with men. Especially Republican men. That solves a lot of GOP-inflicted problems for them.

And the Trump administration, true to the form of tyrants everywhere, but especially the KGB and Gestapo, arrested and intends to punish the terrorist’s innocent wife and kids. Good work, tyrants.

    Washington state Democrats raised a shitload of taxes, one of which is a 6 cent increase in the gasoline tax, effective today.

    Other transportation-related taxes (KIRO):

    Besides the gas and diesel tax hikes, SB 5801 raises a range of fees. Vehicle weight fees will increase by $10 to $24 annually starting in January, depending on the size of the vehicle. The state’s special sales tax on motor vehicles will jump from 0.3% to 0.5%. A new 8% luxury tax will hit vehicles sold for over $100,000, and a 10% tax will apply to aircraft valued above $500,000.

    Rental car taxes will temporarily more than double, from 5.9% to 11.9% in 2026, before settling at 9.9% in 2027. Tire replacement fees will also rise from $1 to $5 per tire.

    I’ll console myself with the absence of an income tax.

    Boxcheck Momala is so awful that a nearly-as-awful Democrat woman will take her on if she runs.

    Katie Porter changes her tune on Kamala Harris

    Singleton said he had not heard Porter say publicly that she would remain in the field regardless of Harris until she was asked about the dynamic last week at a fundraiser he hosted for her.

    The subject came up at a separate fundraiser in Orange County in late June, where, according to one attendee who was granted anonymity to discuss the event, Porter “wanted to make it clear to people she was going to stay.”

    In a statement to Playbook Monday evening, Porter made it official: “I’m running for Governor because I believe I’m the person best able to address the challenges we face, to stand up to Donald Trump, and to lead our state in a way that improves the lives of hard working Californians,” she said, “and that’s not going to change no matter who enters this race.”

    Haaretz Claim That IDF Was Ordered to Fire on Unarmed Gazans Refuted by Translation Discrepancies, Contradictions, and Eyewitness Accounts

    The lack of video footage of the alleged mass shootings near GHF sites raises questions, given the large volume of media typically produced from Gaza, according to Fox, who noted that Hamas has repeatedly circulated images and clips for propaganda purposes.

    “Every Gazan has a mobile phone, and numerous videos of other events have been released,” he wrote. “Why is there a total absence of any credible footage of these supposed IDF combined arms assaults on queuing civilians?”

    Because there never is. It’s what allows assholes like Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit to claim 500 killed by IDF in a Gazan hospital when it turns out it was a Hamas-fired missile that landed in the parking lot, and the injuries were sustained by people camping out at the edge of the lot.

    DOJ memo pushes for broader effort to revoke naturalized US citizenship

    The Department of Justice (DOJ) has laid out new guidelines encouraging its attorneys to seek to strip U.S. citizenship from those who have naturalized if they have committed various crimes. The June 11 memo tells attorneys in the Civil Division to … prioritize denaturalization even for those who are facing “pending criminal charges” that have not yet secured a conviction.

    https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/5379452-doj-memo-denaturalized-us-citizens-trump-immigration/

    Wow, just wow. But this is totally in line with GOP dogma that accusation equals guilt, as Doctor Dumbfuck frequently reminds us. And while the law is unequivocally clear that denaturalization grounded on criminal activity requires a conviction, violating the Constitution and ignoring court rulings is SOP for this administration. But if we go this route, then certainly someone convicted of 34 felonies should have their citizenship revoked.

    So what, you say. They’re criminals, so good riddance. Well, I have news for you. His definition of “criminal” is different from yours. He considers anyone who opposes or criticizes him a criminal.

    That’s a lot of citizens, and the U.S. doesn’t have enough detention facilities to hold them. What if other countries won’t take enough of them? Will his goons then start throwing them out of planes flying over the ocean?
