    “Mind-Boggling”: Trump Voters Shocked at How Badly He’s Screwing Them
    Every Trump Voter: “But I would vote for him again if he ran for an unconstitutional third term, because he’s still better than any Democrat.”
    White supremacy and greed are one hell of a drug.

    White supremacy is indeed a thing with teh magats.. And greed but greed doesn’t mean they have jack shit..

    30 percent of the households in this country can’t scrape together a few hundred dollars for an emergency.

    They couldn’t even start to comprehend that the rich in this country is the vampire class keeping them poor and bamboozling the not so poor into handing over what they have through egregious looting scams like private equity.

    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.”

    I say fuck no. In a sane world, a Bill Gates shouldn’t be the biggest owner of farmland cuz’ he has to put all his fookin’ munee somewhere, anywhere that can earn yet more munee.

    Warren Buffet sez private equity operators are typically dishonest and that’s where a new generation of robber barons are spawned.

    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.

    @ 5

    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.

    If you never cross train tracks you have a zero percentage chance of getting hit by a train.

    OTOH, if you insist on driving on the train tracks then eventually it’s guaranteed.

    SCOTUS today expanded its earlier rulings that transgender people have no rights. The conservative justices must think they’re nonhuman, or something like that.

    In more than 45% of the crashes, the Tesla “struck another vehicle or obstacle with adequate time for an attentive driver to respond or mitigate the crash,” the NHTSA found.

    @5 Yeah, you can afford to lose Murkowski, but then you can’t afford to lose anybody else.

    Don’t get me wrong, I think Republicans holding 53 senate seats plus the vice presidency is enough to vote their party out of existence, or at least depend on 5 or 6 House holdouts to save it from obliteration.

    I predict redirecting $160 billion from day care, school lunches, and health care for babies to hiring thousands more ICE agents who the Supreme Court has given immunity to beat up and kidnap citizens, invade homes without warrants, and violate constitutional rights will be unpopular.
