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?

I would love to see the headline of a major newspaper say “Duh.”

Mike Johnson changed the House rules so that a vote for Congress to reclaim authority to do tariffs will never be scheduled, by declaring the rest of this Congressional term one single calendar day. www.wakeuptopolitics.com/p/house-quie.... He could fix all of this before the US markets open.

Only a traitor to our nation does this. 3 months in and who doesn’t think we have proof enough to arrest and try him for treason? God, but I’m angry.

Last month, US attorney Ed Martin spoke at a fundraiser attended by commuted Oath Keepers who are still actively appealing their convictions by Martin’s office, a man who spent 8 years in prison for attempted murder, and Doug Mackey. With @dfriedman.bsky.social

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

🙌🏼 I’m not sure who had the amazing idea to invite this constitutional lawyer to a senate hearing that intended to prove Biden colluded with Meta to censor conservatives, but she took the opportunity to speak truth to power ✊🏼 on the hypocrite 👑 KING OF FREE SPEECH, Donald Trump, himself. 👏🏼 Brava!!

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income. Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

The law used by Trump to deport Mahmoud Khalil was once struck down by a federal judge -- Trump's own sister. In 1996, Maryanne Trump Barry asked whether it could be squared with the Constitution. “The answer,” she wrote, “is a ringing ‘no.’” @adamliptak.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/03/24/u...

Wooooooboyyyyyy!!! Democratic House Rep. Melanie Stansbury went off about Republicans discussing efficiency standards for walk-in refrigerators. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests. So, best we share all the footage we can here! This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu. 🇹🇷 #Turkey

DOJ moved to intervene on Trump's behalf in civil cases seeking to hold him liable for the Jan. 6 attack. If successful, the US govt would become the defendant against certain claims, another instance of Trump's election helping him clear away legal threats
