Why is the "we must be united!" hectoring directed at people who are mad at the Cavers and not to the Cavers? Everyone who's mad was united, then the Cave Caucus walked across the aisle and betrayed what the public had been told was the Dem position.

Under Biden, the IRS launched a program for people to file their taxes FOR FREE (finally!)
Well, Trump ended it because TurboTax donated $1 million to him. This White House is just one big grift while the rest of us pay more for everything.

This is an absolutely insane administrative process. Within the space of a week, states were told by judges/White House
*no SNAP benefits
*half benefits
*full benefits
*pause provision of benefits.
Result is chaos, uncertainty, and uneven access to benefits depending on where people live.

At least they FINALLY admitted why they refused to negotiate on the shutdown. First they lied and promised Dems they would βnegotiateβ this, but only AFTER they voted for the CR. But Dems were correct when they assessed that Republicans NEVER intended to extend these subsidies.

When there is no ballistic evidence, no damage from gunfire, no injuries, & DHS isnβt providing video evidence of the claim from their agents that someone fired shots, then I am going to call bullshit based on the 2 months of fabricated stories by federal officials that have been debunked by videos.

"A team of independent forensic analysts examined their testimony. The experts called it consistent and credible, saying most of the acts described met the United Nationsβ definition of torture."

In 2008, a blogger named Curtis Yarvin called for a future president to kill foreign aid programs as part of a plan to replace democracy with dictatorship.
Now 600,000 people are deadβand 14 million will die by 2030, according to the Lancet. This is the running death toll of tech fascism.
