BREAKING: A Syrian billionaire needed U.S. sanctions lifted so he could cash in on $12 billion in reconstruction contracts, per NYT.
In an attempt to influence American foreign policy, he proposed a Trump-branded golf course, cut Jared Kushner & Ivanka Trump into a multibillion-dollar real estate deal for a resort in Albania, and had someone physically deliver a stone engraved with the Trump family crest to a Republican Member of Congress with instructions to take it to the White House to get the President's attention.
Trump threw his weight behind repealing the sanctions. They were lifted. The contracts are moving, and the Trump family’s deals are expanding.
Everyone should read what the Israeli military did to journalist Amal Khalil today in this minute-by-minute account as the international community watched in horror. First the text messages threatening her then trapping her and a photographer in a house then bombing them then firing on international rescue crews, all with the world watching in real time. There are no words left for the horrors that U.S. political leaders are enabling.
it must be made public what the process was behind banning accounts like Ali Alizadeh's which had over 300K followers. There was no violation of any TOS. His posts are just political analysis, not even incendiary in tone. Who gave Nikita Bier the order to ban him, and why?
Israel slaughtered another journalist in Lebanon today. If you live in America, you pay these monsters to carry out terror in multiple countries. Congratulations.
Unfrigginbelievable.
So our Secretary of State, acting on a “tip” from a mentally ill influencer, arrested and is detaining two legal citizens with green cards for the crime of having the wrong last names.
How much more cartoonishly evil and stupid can this administration get?
So businesses passed the price increases on to customers and now get to claim refunds for the same price increases they already passed on to customers, which will most likely be paid for by taxpayers, who are of course the same people who already paid those higher prices in the first place, while those same businesses can still minimize what they pay through loopholes in the tax code.
Beautiful.
The Commander in Chief bringing up a decorated combat veteran’s dead wife (who was also a combat vet, who died in Syria ON TRUMP’S FUCKING WATCH) while he’s publicly trashing the guy is garbage. Just disgusting behavior from a disgusting person.
Way more Dems than Golden want to continue this war. But they know it's politically toxic to vote for this war.
So Dem leadership gets Golden to be the one vote to make sure this fails. He's not running for re-election, so he has nothing to lose. That's how this works.
If I’m reading this correctly 30 million American seniors deducted* $225 billion in taxes on social security with an average of $7500 dollars
By far the biggest savings of any group in the entire US
Boomer luxury communism in action
Not only did Disney pay nothing in income taxes this year, it received a $1.428 billion tax refund after making $12 billion in profits.
"Corporations will create jobs if you give them more tax breaks" is a total scam.
If you think H-1B is a problem.
Just wait until you figure out a lot of journalists reporting on H-1B don’t care about the whistleblowers.
Fake News manipulating America is a much bigger problem than Visa abuse.
Tyler Oliveira is the only one who genuinely cared.
