Make your money in a high tax state where the taxes fund infrastructure that made your wealth possible and then move to a low tax state where the education is shit so you can keep your wealth.

The word for this is: immoral

I mean, for such a famed Nazi slogan that the SS used in such a famed Nazi atrocity, it’s genuinely curious that the *very first time* it’s mentioned online is in all these viral posts claiming it’s a famed Nazi slogan used in a famed Nazi atrocity.

In a shifting global trade landscape, Canada’s new government is focused on what we can control.

We’re going to double our non-US exports over the next decade — to secure new opportunities for Canadian businesses, and create tens of thousands of new careers for Canadian workers.

How long will Thune/Hill Rs keep defending the indefensible?

Last week Hill Rs broke w/Trump repeatedly. Can they defend him on Powell, Greenland/NATO, ICE’s lawlessness, inventing a law capping credit card fees, declaring himself President of VZ? Big week in DC.

We have cleaned up the crime scene and blocked a local investigation and hidden the perpetrator and invaded the state and that is how you know that we are acting in good faith and that everything was the victim’s fault.

At this point, the American public is entitled to adverse inference regarding the Epstein files.

In other words, you should assume that they are as bad for Trump as they could conceivably be.

Piece from me on how our relationship with the US is abusive now, not “special”

The Trump administration is excusing murder by ICE using the same lies as those told by Maduro’s regime. These lies are part of the logic of death squads. Govt controls the story & the next murder is easier. And suddenly this is normal and people simply disappear.

Stephen Miller, who wants the U.S. to steal Greenland and shake down Latin America, says: ”We live in a world … that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.”
That‘s a criminal pretending that a civilized world is impossible.
