Opinion | Little to gain by raising taxes on the rich New research shows the current top federal income tax rate is close to revenue-maximizing.

The Editorial Board of @washingtonpost.com … owned by famous rich guy Bezos who has previously bent the WAPO editorial to his knee says we shouldn’t tax rich people. 😂 #eattherich

FUN FACT:

My favorite part of tonight's election results is that all three of the major trump endorsements (Ciattarelli, Miyares, and Cuomo) LOST bigly.

And trump handed out 53 down-ballot endorsements in New Jersey and Virginia. THEY ALL LOST.

Every. Last. One.

Every race. It’s basically been every race.

Governors. Mayors. Long-held GOP dog-catchers. School boards. Water boards. Flipped a dungeon master in a rural Iowa D&D club. State senators. State reps. A janitor in Duluth. State justices. Three GOP Uber drivers.

Just everything.

I think we call this a Kavanaugh Flip.

Funny that GOP justices telling a GOP admin that it could treat Hispanics like third-class citizens hurt the GOP with Hispanic voters.

Serious business here

US cities to resist Trump’s crackdown on dissent with No Kings protests: ‘We will not be bullied’ Second round of protests at more than 2,500 sites are set for Saturday, including in cities where Trump has sent troops

(Because of Trump) "Hard-working American families are left behind,” Dannelle D Stevens, who helps run Miller Street Indivisible, said in a statement. “That’s not democracy. That’s tyranny. And we will not meet it with silence. We refuse to give up.”"

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:
He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group.

There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi.

He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism.

I’m old enough to remember when “cancel culture” was a bad thing?

🚨4 weeks until @microsoft.com ends free support for Windows 10, making 400 million PCs obsolete. And - ironically - it's happening on #EWasteDay, just days before #RepairDay.

We don’t have to accept fast tech. Communities worldwide are repairing, resisting, and demanding better ✊ find out how below

BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif.

He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza.

Speechless.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson on what keeps her up at night:

"The state of our democracy. I would say that I am really very interested in getting people to focus and to invest and to pay attention to what is happening in our country and in our government."

For decades, Republicans in Washington have told us that tax cuts would trickle down to workers.

Instead, wealth and power have accumulated in the hands of the richest 1% at the expense of the rest of us.

Trickle-down economics was never supposed to work.

It was a hoax.

San Diego SHOWED UP! I’ve been here for 30 years and have NEVER seen anything like this! #NOKINGS

NEW: Democracy is alive in Philly!

Amazing scenes in Philadelphia as thousands hit the streets for the anti-Trump protest.

Downtown Miami now, biggest protest crowd I've seen since 2020 (not including the solidarity protests for Cuba in 2021)

Protesters crowd into streets, parks, and plazas at anti-Trump ‘No Kings’ demonstrations across US. Follow live updates. - The Boston Globe The protests are timed to counterprogram a massive military parade commemorating the 250th birthday of the US Army in Washington, D.C.

Today, I stand with the millions of Americans making clear this country doesn't belong to a king.

It’s a democracy, and it belongs to the people.

Tens of thousands came out to #NoKings San Diego. Zero arrests. The only violence is that I was stung by a bee.

I was in Littleton, CO for #NoKings.

Unlike Denver, it is a small town, suburban area with lots of Trump supporters and MAGA.

There was nothing small about that crowd, though. Here are some of my favorite signs/pictures.

PSA: Do not let the Musk & Trump feud distract you from the fact that both want to rob us of basic healthcare, civil rights, & economic security—all while lining the pockets of billionaires.

This childish feud is a distraction. Stay focused on ensuring we stop this horrific bill from becoming law.

Holding bullies accountable isn’t about revenge, it’s about making sure they don’t do it again.

It's absolutely insane that Elon Musk and his wrecking crew are saying they're firing entire swaths of our government infrastructure and the press are just like "oh that's sad but what are you gonna do, guess they're fired." It is batshit crazypants, and it's being covered like normal policy choices
