Trump has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a boon for big corporations.
His Big Ugly Bill, which slashed Medicaid and SNAP, also gave corporations $16B in new depreciation tax breaks this year.
A windfall for the wealthy at your expense.

It’s funny how Elon Musk has no problem with Chinese regulation, which is much stricter than European regulation.

We already know the Trump administration has been lying about ICE “targeting the worst of the worst” — the actual numbers tell the truth.
The government’s own data shows only 15 % of those detained had any prior criminal convictions, and just 3 % were violent offenders.

I want to be clear that this is not an exaggeration—under current Supreme Court precedent based on the ruling yesterday, a state could pass a law saying black people can't vote a month before the election, and federal courts would have no authority to intervene
To be crystal clear about this: The plaintiffs challenged the Texas law six days *before* it was signed by the Governor and became law. That was *too late*.
We need to talk about the massive loophole that the Supreme Court just carved into election law over the shadow docket—giving states a free pass to enact patently unconstitutional voting rules within nearly *one year* of an election. A stunning new limit on judicial review. slate.com/news-and-pol...

The trouble with that is these multiple tries help James prove her vindictive and selective prosecution bid, and bolster a case to get the grand jury materials.
