The whole "no tax on tips" thing kind of a misnomer. Workers still get taxed; they just get to deduct their tip income from their federal income tax, or at least $25,000 of it (as AOC says) — assuming they make enough in wages to pay taxes and file a return.
This is not the win many think it is.

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

The ugliness of this bill doesn't stop.

Our next president will have to be technologically competent, at least , in order for us to sustain our place in the world.
This will become increasingly obvious over the next 4 years as AI gets more powerful
This isn’t necessarily bad. Truly. Done right, we will be a better, more equal society

Protests are growing across Germany.
This was the scene in Hamburg yesterday.
80,000 protesting against the rise of fascism and the AfD.
This is what resistance looks like.
