Do the Minnesota Somalis still consider these people “leaders”?
Supporting Trump was a terrible leadership decision and revealed how dumb these leaders are.

I wouldn’t be taking any advice from them.

Dan Goldman introduces the ROBINHOOD Act to impose a 20% excise tax on loans backed by stocks, private equity.

This closes the billionaire loophole of tax free loans against stock; taxes that would be collected if those stocks were sold.

$276 billion would be applied to childcare, universal pre-k.
ROBINHOOD Act could generate $286B in excise tax revenue from wealthiest Americans
A NEW BILL THAT BROOKLYN CONGRESSMAN DAN GOLDMAN, D-10, HAS INTRODUCED would tax the wealthiest Americans.

The president’s disapproval rating was *ONLY* 60 percent.

I know these articles seem like a feel-good “ha ha gotcha he’s bad” but honestly he should have a 100% disapproval rating.

Hell, at least a 90% disapproval rating. Where are we as a country that this man has only made 60% of us hate him.
Trump is horrendously unpopular. Even MAGA is catching on. | Opinion
All good cons eventually crumble, and we're starting to see the earliest signs that the MAGA movement may be poised to fall.

Who voted for Hakeem Jeffries?
Is this ineffectual sycophant really representative of the modern Democratic Party?
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

OMG…Early this morning I found Jesus lying on the sidewalk along Duval Street in Key West. He must have overindulged during yesterday’s Thanksgiving festivities. Don’t worry, I helped him up and took him to get some coffee.

It’s 68° F outside so the restaurant is offering blankets to all guests.

Perfect.

Uber driver was a Panthers fan from Czech. He said he followed the Lightning while the panthers were bad, but now that the Panthers are good he is a Panthers fan.
I got a chance to call him a dirty rat fan 😆
