Sacrifice?? What the fuck are you talking about??

They did not willingly sacrifice themselves.

They were killed because of the war you, Trump, and the admin, are waging on behalf of a FOREIGN COUNTRY, Israel.

You mean their deaths fuel your bloodlust for a senseless war.

Do members of Congress actually do anything other than tweet, launder money and bankrupt the country??

This is what Elon Musk doesn't want you to see on this platform. This’s what your media won’t report.

The screams of Palestinians in Gaza being burnt alive by Israel.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

BREAKING: Israeli settlers are burning Palestinian homes and farmland in the village of Susya, occupied West Bank — in the middle of the night.

Families are watching their homes burn.

This is organized terror. Pure and simple.

You left out the part where the bill merges the U.S. military with Israel’s military, you treasonous bastards.

Fun Fact: The President of the goddam United States paid nearly $6 million in damages today to a woman he raped. Once upon a time, this would have been the only news you heard.

Trump Accounts are no longer going to be optional- so if you ever plan on having a child in the USA, you should read what I found:

According to the @SocialSecurity Administration's announcement last week, they are modifying the hospital birth registration form so that a Trump Account is AUTOMATICALLY created for your child through that same process.

It will be bundled into the Enumeration at Birth program (EAB), which is the already automated gov pipeline that gives your newborn a Social Security number. It’s one box that you check, you don’t have the option of unbundling it. So if you want your kid to have a Social Security number, they have to have a Trump account.

Which is strange, because according to the IRS and @USTreasury’s public announcements, these accounts only open when a parent actively elects to open one. So which is it? Why is nobody in the government interested in explaining this flagrant contradiction?

Who is going to answer the basic question of what a parent does if they don’t want a government-linked investment account (one that collects biometric data, by the way) created for their child at the exact moment their child’s Social Security number issued?

They can call it a savings account all they want, but a $1,000 deposit is a hell of a cheap price for building a lifelong financial file on every American child before they can consent to anything.

And once the government normalizes linking a person’s identity, financial activity, and predictive systems from birth, who gets to decide what that data will be used to predict later?

We deserve answers immediately. @ndstudio @WhiteHouse

[Fifty Shades of Whey @davenewworld_2]

The Presbyterian Church (USA) voted 454–15 to recognize Israel's actions in Gaza as a genocide, divest from Palantir and GE Aerospace, lobby Congress for an arms embargo, and boycott certain products. They also say that criticism of the Israeli government is not inherently antisemitic.

They're the first major Christian denomination in the USA to formally label Israel's actions in Gaza a genocide.

This is a huge development and a critical escalation in how mainstream US religious institutions perceive Israel, so where's the news coverage? It happened last week, and I've barely seen anything about it in US mainstream media.

[Hannibal999 @Hannibal9972485]

If your kid depends on FAFSA this Trump accounts will destroy them .
🚨🚨🚨

The government is giving a child $1,000 in "free money" but by placing it in an asset account in the child's name, they are disqualifying that child from thousands of dollars in Pell Grants and subsidized loans over their college career

($200/yr x 4 years = $800 lost immediately, plus more if the balance grows).

The "free money" is effectively clawed back by the financial aid system. The Treasury gives with one hand and the Department of Education takes with the other. This ensures poor families remain indebted to the system rather than receiving outright support

🚨🚨🚨🚨

THE WAGE REPLACEMENT SCHEME (THE CORPORATE TAX DODGE)⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️🏦🏦

Another anomaly Employers can contribute up to $2,500 per year to these accounts, and these contributions are "not considered income to the employee or the dependent." The Treasury promotes this as a "tax-preferred benefit" for small businesses.⚠️⚠️⚠️

So If an employer puts $2,500 into a Trump Account instead of giving the employee a $2,500 raise, who wins? 👀

The employee gets locked liquidity (can't touch it for 18 years), but the employer gets a tax deduction.

This incentivizes corporations to replace liquid wage increases with locked equity contributions. An employer can tell a worker, "I can't afford a $2,500 raise," and instead give them $2,500 in a Trump Account. 🚨🚨🚨

The employee thinks they got a bonus, but they actually got nothing they can use to pay rent or buy groceries today. This suppresses real wage growth by funneling compensation into illiquid government accounts that the worker cannot access, while the employer maximizes tax benefits.🚨🚨🚨🚨
——

THE NEGATIVE TAX ARBITRAGE (THE POOR MAN'S PENALTY)🚨🚨🚨

Another Anomaly: it says Contributing to a Trump Account is done with after-tax dollars (no deduction), but withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income upon distribution.⚠️

This is the opposite of a Roth IRA (where you pay tax now, but withdraw tax-free). In this system, you pay tax now, and you pay tax later.⚠️

This structure is predatory for low-income families who are currently in a low tax bracket. If a family in the 10% or 12% tax bracket contributes today, and the child withdraws the money at age 35 when they are in the 22% or 24% tax bracket, the family has voluntarily entered a higher tax liability. This structure guarantees the IRS collects more revenue decades from now than they would under a normal savings account or Roth structure.

The "benefit" of tax-deferred growth is wiped out by the penalty of higher taxes at withdrawal.⚠️⚠️⚠️
——

All these Trump accounts do is 🚨🚨 Loop:

The Government (Treasury) forces money in -> Robinhood/BNY manages it -> The money buys stocks/companies -> BlackRock/Goldman/etc. run those companies/assets -> The stocks go up due to forced demand -> The companies match employee contributions (tax write-off) -> More money in -> Stocks go up more.

It's a circular enrichment scheme for the financial sector.🚨🚨🚨STOLEN from US TAX PAYERS 🚨🚨🚨

Never forget, on November 1, 2023, the US Secretary of State told a FAKE story about an Israeli family having their eyes, breasts, feet & fingers cut off while Hamas had a meal to justify US support for what would become a 2.5 year genocide.
