Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Absolutely. Without the BBC Farage would have remained a nobody.

We have a WINNER!!!!!

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

The thing about all these pieces complaining about Marine Le Pen's conviction is that not a single one of them bothers to explain why someone found guilty of embezzling millions of Euros from public funds should be allowed to get away with it

We're in London today with a big old bus to tell our Govt this country cannot afford cuts. Instead they should tax us, the super rich. A 2% wealth tax alone could raise up to £460mln a week. @Keir_starmer - invest in a fairer economy. Patriotic Millionaires say Tax Our Wealth

‘Each of us needs to decide what kind of world we wish to live in. One of boasts and lies and adulation of lying leaders. Or one of truth, dignity and support for those in need. It shouldn’t be a particularly hard decision to make!’

I quit Spotify today and joined Apple Music. Didn't know Apple Music had HiRes Lossless audio and spatial stereo if you want it. Shameful that Spotify hosts content by Andrew Tate. 😖
