Trump recently launched this website that gives an overview of the potential tax savings from his "One Big Beautiful Bill."

>New York Take-Home Pay increase from $8,500 to $14,700
Holy shit, that's almost double!
Every state says at least $7000. It would be the biggest tax cut I think in history and I'd love thousands more in my pocket but I'll believe it when I see it.

Can also see states jacking up taxes to that tune, under the logic that we were paying that anyway and can afford it, also to make up for loss of Federal funds due to Federal tax cuts.
 
Pushback has begun against Democrats ramming LGBT faggotry down the public’s throat. Watch Maine Governor Janet Mills receive the boos she so richly deserves:

That’s the reception she gets in her hometown:

The audience was less focused on moose hunting than on her policy of subjecting girls to injury and ruining their sports.

“We have daughters!” objected a constituent. When Mills retorted that she has five daughters (actually stepdaughters), she was challenged to stand up for them. But that would mean standing up to the Alphabet Creature, who perch triumphantly at the apex of the neoliberal pyramid of phony oppression and therefore must not be challenged.

This isn’t her first smackdown recently. Mills probably couldn’t sit for a week after the kick in the pants Trump gave her at a Governors Working Session for defying his executive order that protects female sports.
It's a bad sign when the hecklers are more intelligible than the politician.
 
So what is the consensus view here? From the pictures released thus far, this whole thing seems to be nothing but political theater to me. Trump waited for Iran to move all their centrifuges and uranium, then we bombed some entrance tunnels, ignored all surface structures, and didn't even attempt to penetrate the actual nuclear facility. Even that cringe "Topgun: Maverick" plot thing Fox was pushing was bullshit, the MOPs didn't fall into the same crater for more penetration. Even the Iranian missile retaliation is empty theatrics.
 
Mormons gave us Russel Greer, thus they must be eradicated for the security of all mankind.

It's a conundrum because Mormons also gave us John Moses Browning

Waiting for a pdf of the ruling but this is nice, I hate how SCOTUSblog drags its feet when rulings favoring Trump happen:

It's also Clarence Thomas' aka Joyboy's birthday today!

Damn SCOTUS ruled the President can do his job? Took long enough

Thanks. It was 6-3 for Trump with the dumb liberal women being the usual dissenters. It is 19 pages of Wise Latina dissenting and having a theater kid moment, acting like Homan's just rounding people up and throwing them over the border.

The boos in that :story:


the fact that it's about syrian rapefugees in the clip makes it even better for this.

Happy there are men out there rightfully standing up to her but I’m so sad there aren’t women doing the same

Everything in the news is threatrics. None of it is real. You may now go about the rest of your day knowing nothing ever happens, citizen.

I hope y'all will forgive my pedantry, but this is not a ruling. It's a stay of the injunction issued by the lower court, which will now proceed to be litigated the old-fashioned way. It's a good thing but it's not a win, yet.
 
They say personnel is policy. Ultra-shitlib Michael Bloomberg demonstrates the principle:
1750713284217.webp
The New York University State Energy & Environmental Impact Center’s fellowship—which Bloomberg’s eponymous philanthropic nonprofit provided two seed grants worth $5.6 million in 2017—has long placed and paid the salaries of officials in at least 10 state attorney general offices nationwide. Over the past two years, internal emails obtained by the Free Beacon show, the program has expanded to state-level public service commissions, often-overlooked agencies that regulate utility companies and permit energy infrastructure like pipelines and power plants. The commissions also implement state renewable energy standards that force power providers to generate electricity through pricier green sources.
Bloomberg might have been inspired by the über-neoliberal kingpin George Soros, who purchased higher crime rates throughout the country by installing shitlib district attorneys who side with criminals against their victims.

The center’s work in attorney general offices, where Bloomberg-funded fellows have participated in litigation accusing the fossil fuel industry of causing global warming, has prompted conflict-of-interest concerns over the use of private funding to drive public lawsuits. Its work in state regulatory agencies, on the other hand, is a new development—one that suggests the center and its funders seek to play a more active role pushing green energy development at the local level.

The purpose is to deprive normal people of electricity on behalf of libshit ideology. But with a net worth of $106 billion, Bloomberg himself will stay warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Look who Bloomberg’s fellowship managed to install on the Louisiana Public Service Commission:
Rula Thabata, a DEI activist, former policy fellow at a Muslim advocacy group, and recent graduate of Loyola University Chicago School of Law. A job posting for the role echoed the 2023 contract, stating that the [NYU] fellow would be sponsored by the NYU impact center and handle regulatory matters related to the “clean energy future, climate change, [and] energy justice.”

“Energy justice” means only plutocrats like Bloomberg can afford energy.

Lol, back when that shit had any meaning, those "west-aligned" countries were part of the USSR. It's a historical map.
