Americans now pay more in taxes than they spend on food, clothing, and shelter combined.
Think about that.
Government has become so big and bloated that taxes cost more than life's basic necessities. Every American taxpayer should be outraged.
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.
@historyinmemes Aside from the fact that everybody has rightly mentioned that that's an Apple Lisa computer, the Apple II was released in June of 1977. That was the first personal computer, not the IBM.
@HolderStephen Given that over 50% of the replies in this thread disagree with your take, perhaps saying no one wanted or supported perhaps needs to be reevaluated. 😉
.@POTUS: "I am pleased to announce that on May 17th, 2026, we're inviting Americans from all across the country to come together on our National Mall to pray, give thanks, and to... rededicate America as One Nation Under God." 🙏
First things first. Why did Pretti bring a gun and ammo where he knew he would likely be part of a group physically confronting ICE during a lawful execution of a detention and removal order? Why was he even carrying his weapon?
And rather than these scenes playing out again and again, organized for the specific purpose of obstructing and confronting federal law enforcement from carrying out its lawful duties, why do local and state Democrat officials refuse to allow local law enforcement to help identify the location of dangerous illegal aliens and turn them over to federal officials or assist in crowd control?
None of this would be going on but for the intentional acts of sabotage by local and state Democrat officials who are not only obstructing federal law enforcement but urging on the mobs and inciting violence with the most toxic demagoguery and propaganda.
And the media gaslight it all.
Barack Obama’s ICE chief received an award for 920,000 removals.
Donald Trump’s ICE chief was called a Nazi.
It’s the same person: Tom Homan.
In 2012, Obama deported 409,000 people.
In 2025, Trump deported 290,000 people.
The difference is mainstream media brainwashing.
MIDTERMS: 21 Indiana Republicans killed a clean redistricting map after promises of cash from the Senate President Rodric Bray and GOP consultants. Democrats win, Trump gets stabbed in the back.
Capitalism doesn’t assume humans aren’t greedy. It assumes they are and refuses to give them power over others.
That’s the point.
Greed under capitalism is constrained by consent. You only get richer by offering something others voluntarily choose to pay for. If you stop providing value, the money stops.
Greed under collectivism is unconstrained. It’s backed by force. You get resources whether you create value or not, so long as you can moralize need or capture political power.
Also, capitalism doesn’t pit competition against cooperation. Competition is how we discover who can cooperate best. Every successful business is a massive act of cooperation with customers, workers, suppliers, and investors. It just isn’t coerced cooperation.
And the claim that capitalists never give back is empirically false. Private charity, philanthropy, reinvestment, and voluntary aid explode under capitalist systems and collapse under socialist ones.
What you’re really saying is this:
You don’t trust individuals to choose generosity. You trust the state to enforce it.
That isn’t moral. It’s just replacing voluntary cooperation with compulsory obedience.
