The issue with Democrats going all in on Epstein stuff is that they absolutely do not have the stomach to make any of this matter

when your plans to suckle at the fascist teat of the Trump Administration fail because you *checks notes* forgot Canada exists
Bari Weiss is so incompetent at leading CBS News that her efforts at fully suppressing the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT was foiled because she wasn't aware (or forgot) that the broadcast package including that segment was distributed via a streaming app for broadcast in Canada.

As much as I despise Trump, he is the only president in decades to take on the price gouging and price fixing in Big Pharma.
Americans should not be paying 300, 400, 500, percent higher prices than Europe or Asia. And the price gouging on insulin is insane. Not a total solution yet though.

This is a racist way to gentrify weed. An inconvenience for wealthy white ppl who will likely never face charges, but still a pathway into the carceral system for poor & non-white ppl.
Just decriminalize or legalize weed instead of leaving it to your racist police & justice system.

Thinking of putting together a year-end round up of all the goals #taxtwitter accomplished this year. Remember that fun discussion about how only property owners should have rights, and landlords should be able to shoot tenants who are late on rent?
The boys club on the nazi #Taxtwitter should be ecstatic, they got everything they wanted. Trans people are terrified, poor people are going hungry, no one can afford insurance, Palestine is rubble, DEI is gone. They did it! And y'all called me names & told me to be nicer when I warned you 😄

The funniest part about this is user inability to ask a coherent question is likely a large part of the problem. How on earth could a chatbot parse out the garbled misinformation most people "know" about taxes 😆
