WTF?! The GOP’s “Save America Act” (previously just “SAVE”) requires that states implement voter purge programs using programs such as the “SAVE” system, which consistently marks citizens as noncitizens, per this report by ProPublica & Texas Tribune. The Act imposes *no penalty* 4 faulty purges. 1/

I know the big thing on "tax billionaires" is "but it's unrealized gains, and those aren't real!!!"
Cool, bet. No tax on it. But since it's not real it can't be used as collateral for a loan. You want cash, you have to sell stock and realize the gain.

Tax billionaires out of existence. Break up any company that's "too big to fail."

🎩 Our government’s been using Epstein’s blackmail information for decades
I believe it’s one of the main reasons we can’t have a functioning government
Removing everyone implicated in the Epstein files is the key to taking our country back
We need to rip these people out of power!

to use an overused sports metaphor, i think aoc has "intangibles." you cant quite measure it, but its the inspiring x factor that separates a loyal vote for the nominee vs a diehard vote for someone you believe in. i think those intangibles cut through to normies and win races.
I’m with you. Fuck winnability and consultants. Give me someone genuine with fire and no fucks to give who will tear it all down and build something better, to fight for and with.
If we’re going to lose, I’d rather feel good about leaving it all on the field, than play it safe and lose anyway.

He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational

This is as big a lie as the one about the 2020 election, probably even more dangerous because so many "normie" Republican officials glommed onto it to curry favor with Trump. Corporate media never exposed it, and an uneducated electorate remains confused.
