By DY_nasty Go To PostIt's really more the hopping on stage "we will retaliate!!1" and then pulling a raffle on what lucky bastard gets fried that should be setting people off - from the very top
ya I see it. Basically terrorism.
There’s just so many reasons why that is perhaps one of the top 3 worst takes of all time and I don’t even know where to begin
I'm trying to imagine all of the popped arteries if Obama did an alternate play-by-play with his daughter of a baseball game featuring retired players on the 20th anniversary of 9/11
WASHINGTON — Like other Republican governors around the country, Tate Reeves of Mississippi reacted angrily to the coronavirus vaccine mandates President Biden imposed on private businesses. Declaring the move “terrifying,” he wrote on Twitter: “This is still America, and we still believe in freedom from tyrants.”https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/12/us/politics/vaccine-mandates-republicans.html
There is a deep inconsistency in that argument. Mississippi has some of the strictest vaccine mandates in the nation, which have not drawn opposition from most of its elected officials. Not only does it require children to be vaccinated against measles, mumps and seven other diseases to attend school, but it goes a step further than most states by barring parents from claiming “religious, philosophical or conscientious” exemptions.
I am shocked to find out the argument isn't about anything but political culture war posturing. SHOCKED.
Gotta love how acutely aware this man is of how little skin he has in the game. People talk about packing the Supreme Court but let’s be real here that won’t fix shit. Abolish it and create something better surely America can think of something better.

House Democrats’ plans to raise taxes on the rich and on profitable corporations stop well short of the grand proposals many in the party once envisioned to tax the vast fortunes of tycoons like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk — or even thoroughly close loopholes exploited by high-flying captains of finance.
Instead, the House Ways and Means Committee, influenced more by the need to win the votes of moderate Democrats than by progressive Democratic ambitions, focused on traditional ways of raising revenue to pay for the party’s $3.5 trillion social policy bill — by raising tax rates on income.
The proposal, which is set to be considered by the panel on Wednesday, does include measures to raise taxes on the rich. Taxable income over $450,000 — or $400,000 for unmarried individuals — would be taxed at 39.6 percent, the top rate before President Donald J. Trump’s 2017 tax cut brought it to 37 percent. The top capital gains rate would rise from 20 percent to 25 percent, a considerably smaller jump than President Biden proposed.
But more notable is what is not included. The richest of the rich earn little money from actual paychecks (Mr. Bezos’s salary from Amazon was $81,840 in 2020). Their vast fortunes in stocks, bonds, real estate and other assets grow each year largely untaxed.
The committee did take aim at a loophole in retirement savings exploited by billionaire Peter Thiel, who, according to a ProPublica investigation, was able to take a Roth individual retirement account worth less than $2,000 in 1999 and grow it to $5 billion, which could be completely shielded from taxation.https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/13/us/politics/tax-democrats-budget.html

It is funny, then, that a lot of people online that I've seen make this very point are deeply avowed, and permanently damaged Jeremy Corbyn superfans.
