I wish we could staff and empower the federal IRS in the same degree as the NY State Department of Taxation and Finance. EVERYONE should pay the taxes the law says they owe. No tax dodging, no layer of shell companies, no tax evasion. The wealthy typically underpay.

Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

Tom Cotton: "All of these cartels in Latin America do qualify as foreign terrorists, and frankly their activities have killed many more Americans than Al-Qaeda or ISIS has killed."

Gun manufacturers and liquor companies have also killed more Americans. Does that make them domestic terrorists?

Kash Patel has been using FBI agents to drive his girlfriend’s drunk friends home. It’s the kind of corruption that will drive him from office, if it turns out that anyone involved was a Democrat.

This really is grotesque: they went through years-long citizenship processes and are now being denied simply because if the country they are from. It’s formalized bigotry.

There’s something doubly grating about the pious invocation of “Western civilization” by the sort of incurious dolt who wouldn’t know a Titian canvas, a Beethoven quartet, or a Socratic dialogue if whapped them upside the head.
It has long been clear that unalloyed racism lies at the core of Trumpism, and he is becoming increasingly explicit about this.

It just seems weird to me that you can engage in an extraordinary mid-decade re-redistricting to alter the status quo, then say the courts can’t enjoin it because everyone’s relied on the new maps that have never been used & can’t handle using the existing districts.
