United States tax revenue: $2.66 trillion
Proposed Iran refund: $300 billion
$300b/$2.66 trillion = 0.11.
11% of your federal taxes will be going to Iran.
@BrokeDad360 They can find it in their budgets to keep the roads and police and firefighters paid. They waste so much of the money anyway. Property taxes are the biggest scam in America
Hello @AOC, while you smiled in a hijab at a New York event, I was in Federal Court facing the 4th hitman hired by the Islamic Republic to assassinate me, for campaigning for Iranian women to have the same freedom you performed for a photo op. Will you come to court with me in August when I face the 5th hitman? Or does solidarity only work when it doesn't offend the Islamic regime?
You wore hijab voluntarily in New York. Women are killed in Iran for taking it off.
You are the very woman who, at every opportunity, protests against violence against women, decries gender segregation, and champions "inclusion." Yet here you stand, smiling and wearing a hijab, at an event in New York, in the heart of the West, where men and women are strictly separated. To me and millions of Iranian women, this does not look like a choice. It is no longer "My body, my choice," but rather "My body for votes."
They who claim to fight for women's self-determination in the name of feminism voluntarily embrace an ideology that mandates our women cover their hair simply because they are women. They enjoy the prosperity, freedom, and privileges of the Western world, where they may live as autonomous individuals , yet they simultaneously accept that other women should not be afforded the same rights.

If Republicans are wrong. And Democrats are right.
Then How is Florida able to end all property taxes
But California and New York raise them every single year
Eliminating fraud, waste and abuse should be the most nonpartisan issue in America as it affects everyone.
Those who are against it are simply anti-American and are the fraudsters.
For instance, Tim Walz and Ilhan Omar are SILENT about the fraud because they are the fraudsters
One of the problems we have in public policy is that wonks don’t give any consideration to how their ideas will collide with actual human behavior. Take our Trump Accounts. There are millions of parents who will in theory benefit enormously from this investment in their kids’ future, but the policy does no good if parents never find out how to sign up for it.
From day one of our administration we’ve tried to think outside the box on problems like this. That’s why Elon recruited the best and brightest engineers and designers to help us make government more efficient. Some of those same exceptional design and software talents, under @jgebbia’s leadership, have been working for months at National Design Studio on a different problem: making government programs like the Trump Accounts more user friendly.
With the Trump Accounts we’ve met people where they are. Instead of expecting them to navigate a ton of complicated forms on https://t.co/4MbCJUKklg, we’ve built out a simple, easy-to-use app to sign parents up. The app helps us market the program and sign up users, and deploying it this early does something else: it gives our engineers a pilot program to test out Treasury’s digital back-end systems and iron out kinks in advance of the delivery of the funds later this summer. So, parents, sign up now, and help us invest in your kids for tomorrow.
Because great policy only works when people can actually use it. That is the power of design. When government is easier to understand, easier to navigate, and easier to trust, people benefit. The American experience should be as great as the American promise.
New: Joe Rogan leaves NASA astrophysicist Michelle Thaller completely stuck after asking her a deep question about the reality of time:
ROGAN: “The weirdest thing that I’ve ever heard anybody say is that all time exists currently.”
THALLER: “That’s Albert Einstein.”
ROGAN: “When we measure time what exactly are we measuring? When we create a clock that runs 24 hours per day what is it measuring?”
THALLER: “That’s a deep question. That question caused everything in physics to fall apart.”
ROGAN: “I still don’t understand what we’re measuring.”
THALLER: “I don’t think I have an answer for you. I don’t think anybody does.”
Hey @Tim_Walz and @IlhanMN one of the biggest fraud bust in Minnesota history took place this week and you guys said nothing
Shouldn’t you guys celebrate when fraud is exposed in your state and district?
Or are you upset because it was exposed? Silence speaks volumes.
CBS News said there was no evidence of fraud.
The NYT said the Somali community was being targeted
CNN said there was "little evidence."
Tim Walz said it was “white supremacy” to expose fraud
Today: $90M busted and 15 charged.
IT WAS ALL FRAUD AND THEY KNEW.
NAILED IT: Jeff Bezos: “A nurse in Queens who makes $75K a year pays more than $12K a year in taxes. Does that really make sense?”
“So people talk about making the tax system more progressive. How about we start by having the nurse in Queens NOT pay taxes? At all!”
“Why is a nurse in Queens who makes $75K a year paying more than $1K a month in taxes?”
“That’s $1K a month that could help with rent or groceries or anything.”
“And by the way, do you know what that all adds up to? The bottom half of income earners in this country pay only 3% of the taxes. It’s only 3%.”
“We can find 3%. So we don’t have... it’s a small amount of money for the government. You know that. And the more I thought about it, to me, it’s kind of absurd that we’re doing this.”
“We shouldn’t be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington — they should be sending her an apology. It really makes no sense.”
Exactly!
