Yet if there is any discussion on increasing taxes on these fucks all of a sudden it's government overreach on the "job creators"
If DOGE doesn't touch US Military spending (they won't), it's more bullshit than the TSA
What's going to happen is DOGE will cut $5 trillion from the programs, and then there will be a $4 trillion in tax cuts that impact only the rich in someway or another, and an additional $1 trilion for the military.
0 money is actually going to be saved from this. Realistically it'll be negative and cost money, not even 0.
well i guess it's a good thing nobody really needed that Social Security anyways /s
i'm impressed over and over again what kind of mental flexibility allows people to call themselves "followers of jesus" and then implement such regulations.
Not to come off as a raging cynic, but I for one am not.
All one needs to do is work retail or food service on Sundays. Moral licensing is absolutely a thing, and it's awful. Such interactions can leave one with the impression that there's a huge mob of people out there that are more concerned with narrowly avoiding hell than ensuring their place in heaven. Nevermind trying to be good people.
Someone needs to share this news with @[email protected]
You do realize that's satire account, right?
Yeah that's why we need him
WHUT? I thought Trump was just going to kick out all the illegals and fuck over China! No one told me there would be DOMESTIC consequences!! Why didn't anyone warn me? At all his rallies he said the next 4 years would be awesome. Now I'm starting to think I was misled!
Them leopards be eatin some faces
nooo trump will definitely make the country great again, you see, but just like every great empire, so does this one require slaves/victims. otherwise if you're not winning against someone, what is the point in greatness?
kek
Bahahahahaha.
All you guys who didn't vote for whatever reason... I hope you're happy.
I think that anyone who didn't vote because they thought the two were equivalent are probably not the type of person to keep up with this type of thing. So, there is probably ignorance, not necessarily stupidity (although there is that too). Ignorance is bliss. They're probably in their own world worrying about other things, and they probably are happier for it.
I am envious. It will be bad enough to suffer resulting from everything president dipshit will do, but suffering from frustration knowing it is coming is awful too.
I'm watching the machine that's oppressed me and everyone I love accept a newly tossed wrench right into the gears.
I'd be lying if part of me wasn't happy to see the first few sparks.
Sure, Trump threw it. Were you throwing anything but memes? Soon you'll get to throw bricks and molotovs.
I've actually been Black Bloc at protests going back to the Occupy movement, I've been throwing shit. Can I assume you're one of those dickhead accelerationists that's never actually done anything and just wants to stir shit up?
EDIT:
cuts to Social Security and Medicare are likely “on the table” as part of debt reduction efforts.
Medicare for all? More like Medicare for none.
