These people have been waiting an hour to get into Madison Square Garden.
Here is a first person account:
“They routed everyone down to 34th and 8th.
Police barracade.
Through metal detectors to a point about 200 feet from MSG.
Then they came and apologized and said they were confused and instead we needed to exit the barracade and go to 34th and 7th.
We walked there and then a different set of police told us to go to 32nd and 6th.
There are hundreds, if not a thousand people, wandering around in giant herds not knowing where to go or how to get in.
The police keep saying they don’t know the protocol.”
Imagine being a bar owner inside this zone near MSG. You'd prepared to have maybe the highest revenue night in this history of your bar.
Now you'll make nothing thanks to Trump.
@hasbybets@FinalsJDub The country isn't paying him anything, the nba is. Also if he's earning a billion dollars that means they're making a lot more money than that from him being in the league. They didn't bring him over here out of the kindness of their hearts.
Corporation: "We made $4B but spent $3.9B so we only owe taxes on $100M."
Government: "Totally reasonable."
You: "I made $60K but spent $58K on survival."
Government: "You owe taxes on $60K."
You: "That's not—"
Government: "File by May 15."
Back then…
The average personal tax rate was 5.5%
The average corporate tax rate was 42%
And the tax rate for the ultra wealthy was 91%.
That’s what they stole from us.
@deviousduck_ He’s shooting 30% from 3 so that’s less than 1 expected point. If he has even a 50/50 chance of getting the foul at 90% FT% that’s 1.35 expected points.
That may sound lame as fuck but it’s exactly what OKC has built their game around and why they are so lame to watch
Let me get this straight
Peter Thiel was an early Silicon Valley donor to Trump, who currently sits as President of the United States
He hand picked JD Vance, who goes on to become VP and is still in that position
His friend and former cofounder, Elon Musk, is the richest man on the planet and is about to do the biggest IPO ever in history
His fund was one of the earliest backers of Space X, amongst many other successful investments
Literally everything he wished for has happened. Everyone he wanted in power is currently in power.
But, he is now leaving the country to move to Argentina. What am I missing here?
